Stop Collection calls Trick explained

I was talking with Richard Cooper of www.totaldebtfreedom.ca. He had emailed me a week or so ago with an article that wrote about some devices that stop collection calls and even telemarketing calls.

Collection agencies usually use a bunch of computers and hundreds of phone lines to contact you automatically. There is no more collection agents that hand dial your phone number any more. These systems are called predictive diallers.

Because these computers are calling you, they have to listen to see if a phone number is in service, or not. If the phone number is no longer in service, there's not much point in then continuing to call the number.

The product Richard's talking about is a telezapper, which gives out a SIT tone (Special Information Tone) that tells the predictive dialler that your phone number is no longer in service. The collection agencies software then records your phone number as not in service, and thus they won't continue to contact you continuously with their computer driven systems.

This is what the SIT tone sounds like .

Richard Cooper is the founder of the Canadian Debt Settlement company Total Debt Freedom. He used to be in the collection industry and has a good understand of the systems that collection agencies use to collect.
