On Good Friday, no less. I am at work, and I get a call from DW. She tells me some guy called about one of my late sister's debts. I am still getting a few calls, because some of her debts have been resold to collection companies, so I just give them info and they go away.
However, this "dude" accuses DW of "lying to his face", "making up stories", and that I am "breaking the law." DW freaks out and hangs up on him, and he calls back and throws some more stuff at her. She calls me all frantic, so I get the number and call them. Wow, that guy was a piece of work. Here's a few snippets from him:
"Listen here, smart guy, I KNOW you're playing games with me"
"If you're going to ask me a question, I'm NOT going to answer it"......
"Someone in your immediate family is trying to make us look bad, and you're breaking the law".........
"Time for you to "smarten up"..........
" According to OUR information, someone, probably you, opened a credit card in your sister's name and has been charging things and making payments, etc"........
WTF??
I asked for a manager, and he wouldn't get me his supervisor. Finally I got a supervisor after some more namecalling. The supervisor turned out to be a nice guy and I think things are settled now. But wow, what an a--hole the 1st guy was........
