Started receiving phone calls from Alyon Technologies and/or First America Credit (changes each time they call) about a bill for accessing adult websites in November. (Sound familiar?) They claimed my minor child had accessed them.
They have continued to call my house everyday, sometimes 2 or 3 times a day. The times I have spoken to them I have requested documentation of this bill but have yet to receive it. I believe the Fair Debt Collections Act specifies a company has 5 days to do this at the request of the consumer - please correct me if I am wrong.
They continue to call, most times hanging up on me if I answer or not leaving a message on the answering machine if I am not home. We have caller ID so I have documented all times and dates. There are now TWO different numbers they are calling from: 866-803-5456 and 800-660-1935.
I will not be bullied, harrassed or threatened into paying this bill. I have filed a complaint with the FTC. I am in the process of filing a complaint with our State's Attorney General's office, and have sent Alyon a "cease communication" letter via certified mail with return request.
This letter was suggested by the FTC when I filed the complaint. I am boning up on my rights and suggest anyone who is being contacted by this company (or companies) to do the same. Fight back!!!
