I keep getting called from this number: 801-257-6155

Country: United States
Hi--
I keep getting called from UTAH at this number: 801-257-6155. They do not answer. Besides, I will not answer the phone if I do not know who is calling. Also, my son keeps getting called by a collection agency for Applied Bank Card. He has sent them a Cease thing (whatever it is called)--a letter to make them stop calling. They call up to 12 times a day starting at 8 something in the morning until 8 something at night. They will not quit. My son has told them that they do not need to call that many times a day. They know his financial situation, and he has told them that he will send them some money when he can. He is in a tight bind financially right now, and they know that. How do you get them to stop calling? AT&T cannot block their call (they are our phone company). The collection agency's number is (the one that keeps harassing my son): 800-684-8429. Please advise me of these two phone numbers. They are extremely annoying. I have been keeping a log about the 800-684-8429 number. What do I do next?
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Debra Clarke and Erik Leon

I hear a lot of you are getting that Utah call, too! They are extremely annoying. I let the phone ring three times, and then they hang up. I will not pick up the phone if I do not know who is calling. I always wondered who they were at 801-257-6155! Is it the Bank of America, or is it a whole bunch of telemarketers calling to harass people? I do not like telemarketers!! I think they are ALL annoying! I reported these guys, so I hope something will be done soon for all of us that are being harassed!

Regardless, if you are on the Do Not Call list, file an FTC complaint.

TelePerformance is a worldwide company who claim to be experts in Contact Center management. We all know what that meant. This number originates from Utah, probably from here:

Teleperformance USA Group
Dominic Dato
Tim Casey
Alan Truitt - Business Development
1991 South 4650 West
Salt Lake City , UT 84104
UNITED STATES
Tel: (1) 801.257.5800
Fax: (1) 801.257.6246

(for Employment Verification in the U.S. please call 1-801-366-8508)
-------------------------------
I got that info from the page listing their international entities:
http://www.teleperformance.com/GP/Contactus/Default.aspx
It is a frightening list! They have he most offices in France, and that is where their domain is registered:

Interesting enough, they do not list an 800 number, so if you want to chat wit them, it will be on your dime. it might be worth that.
I wonder if they got 10-20,000 extra calls to their corporate offices each dy, like they do to us, that they would get the idea that it is not at all appreciated.

See www.teleperformanceusa.com
Teleperformance USA 1991 S 4650 W, Salt Lake City - (801) 257-5800 They have several other locations around Salt Lake City too.
I also suggest everyone on the Do Not Call registry file a complaint with them, this is just illegal corporate behavior.
https://www.donotcall.gov/complaint/complaintcheck.aspx
1. get the name of the company
2. get their address if you can(you already have their number)
3. go to the link above and file a complaint.
You see this way instead of one by one people getting their names on the specific teleperformance no call list they will be fined big bucks and this way they will understand why we have no call lists in the US.
I just filed mine as these morons actually tried to get my SS# to bring up my account so I am calling fraud on these guys..
This was a switchboard number so they asked what company called me. In my case a message was left that it was Wellcare - my Rx insurance company. They were following up on a call I had made re a problem 2 days ago and it had been assigned to a rep who was calling to help resolve this.
From reading other complaints here it does look like this # does handle other companies besides Welcare, so whether all are legitimate calls or some might be from telemarketers I have no idea....as I said it is just a switchboard #. If you don't want them to call you again, you can call and advise the operator who answers and she will take your # off the call list.
