Why are people so rude to debt collector’s? I am one and I am so tired of being mistreated. We are under paid and then have to deal with the most ungrateful, and disrespectful people. We aren’t customer service. Don’t get mad at us because YOU owe.

Why are people so rude to debt collector’s? I am one and I am so tired of being mistreated. We are under paid and then have to deal with the most ungrateful, and disrespectful people. We aren’t customer service. Don’t get mad at us because YOU owe.

You want to know why? Several years ago, some debt collection agency started calling me asking for someone I had never heard of. Repeatedly, at all hours of day and night. More than once, my answer was that I did not know who she was. Finally, I called them once and navigated through their phone tree and told them that they were calling the wrong person. After I did that, they called me again, and they lied, claiming that they spoke to her and she called from my number. I matched dates and times (I kept written records) and they were referring to the time I called them! The assholes woke me up at 3 AM!

I get mad at you because I didn’t owe, and you people fucking harassed me for months. I don’t care how much or how little you are paid. The behavior in question is unconscionable.

You know what else? This is not the only time that I have been repeatedly harassed by wrong number debt collectors. You people just don’t care and don’t do your research.

Ive been pretending to be okay and acting as normal as possible, but Im actually completely heartbroken after a recent breakup. Its painful and really affecting me, to the point where I cant concentrate at work, Ive lost my appetite, I cant sleep, and It feels as if my whole world has been turned upside down. I loved him so much. He said so many cruel things to me and it made me realize he must not have loved me the way I loved him, or he wouldnt have said such horrible things. How do I handle the heartbreak and why cant I accept that he didnt love me and just forget about him?
