Consumer Narrative
Company called TSI keeps calling my place of employment. They ask to speak to me and tell my employer/coworkers who they are with and on a recorded line. They have also contacted my ex wife and claimed that they can not get ahold of me. They explained to her information about my personal finances. When googling this number, ( XXXX ) XXXX, it comes up as a scam risk. They state that I owe money to a state I no longer live in. They also claim that this is dealing with my taxes from XXXX. Its almost XXXX tax season! No communication has come from this state prior to this. The individual calls my ( one phone line ) place of employment daily. This is an absolute harassment towards my employer and directly takes a strain on my employment. If a debt is due to a certain state/entity, it would be sent via the U.S. Postal Service. When telling the individual that it is beyond unethical to contact my place of employment and former partner, they stated that they have tried to contact my cell phone but it goes to voicemail. I asked that they leave a voicemail or send a letter. It was explained to me that they have tried contact me but that my phone must not be working and they are not allowed to leave a voicemail. They have also stated to my ex partner that they can not send mail over state lines ( WI/IL ). I make and take numerous calls on this phone daily. This is pure harassment techniques that are beyond the point of a code of ethics and should not be taken lightly.
