Is This Ever Going to Stop?

I've written about this before, but it's still a big problem. The person who had my cell number previously apparently really got herself into some serious trouble. Today I received a call from a law firm requesting that she return the call. I'm still getting text messages from her friends, and even her own mother didn't know she'd changed her number. Okay, so I know I could change my number again, and I suppose that if things don't start getting better I just might be forced to do it, but I shouldn't have to do something like that because of someone else's situation. Granted, when I called the law firm back, the person I spoke with was very understanding and said that my number would be removed from their records, but I feel like I'm being left to pick up the pieces. Maybe I'm making too big a deal out of this, I don't know. But you'd think that in five months, people would start to get the hint but it's not happening.

Anyway, rant over. I just get so frustrated when I get these calls.

I feel your pain. Apparently a "Mr. Erikson" listed my cell phone number on a credit application, and now the bill collectors are after him. Of course they don't believe me when I tell them they have a wrong number, and they keep addressing me as "Mrs. Erikson." Sigh.
