Ever wonder why that same recorded pitch keeps popping up on your phone? The pattern points to a robocall campaign masquerading as a “lower interest” offer, typically tied to generic “Card Services” scams. These calls violate the Do Not Call Registry and use pre‑recorded messages to harvest personal data. The safest play is to let the call go to voicemail, never press any keys, and block the number with your carrier or a third‑party call blocker. Register the number on the FCC’s Do Not Call list, report it, and consider using call‑trace services if the harassment continues. Stay cautious and keep personal info offline.
I'm experiencing the same issue
The origin of this scam appears to be Jamaica, and it seems there are limited options for stopping it.
Elderly individuals have been receiving frequent calls from this number, roughly 4-5 times a week, over the last year and a half, without a clear way to stop them.
Further research reveals the identity of the company associated with this number.
I'm so tirerd of geting these un wanted calls, it's becomming a nightmare.
Identity theft attempt suspected
On July 9, 2013, I received a recorded call from this number claiming it was my 'second and final' opportunity to lower my rate.
I got a call from another number this afternoon, it said something like Bank Services, but i quickly hung up on them, these people are ruthless and relentless
A rather aggressive message was left on my answering machine, implying I had done something wrong, despite my numerous attempts to be added to the do-not-call list.
Multiple calls are received daily from this number, with the same message being delivered each time. Unfortunately, there's no actual person to engage with.
This company is calling numbers registered on the do-not-call list, which is illegal, and upon answering, there is no operator available; when reaching an operator and requesting their non-toll-free number or physical address, they hang up, as their goal is to obtain credit card information
Upon answering, the recording was silent for a few seconds before clicking off
Never respond to these calls or press any numbers, it just confirms that they have a valid number to call again. And they will.
Upon receiving this call, I opted to press one in hopes of speaking with a live person, which I did, and subsequently informed her that her actions were in violation of the law given the number's registration with the DNC, prompting a defensive response before she terminated the call, after which I promptly filed a complaint with the National Do Not Call Registry.
Harassing calls have prompted me to contact my state Representative for assistance
The caller ID displayed "Lower Interest", out of curiosity, I looked up the number and found it's a known scam, which I then reported to the FCC
I've been answering and imediatly hanging up, which seems to have fooled the robo dialer, now I recieve fewer calls
Apparently, getting removed from a card service's robodialer is a feat that has never been accomlished before, making you famus if you succed.
I dialled the number and there was a recorded message with the option to remove myself from their list, hopefully it work
At 10:46 on 4/13, another robo-call was received claiming it was my final opportunity to lower my credit card rate
Although I'm on the no-call list, they persist in offering to lower my interest rate, leaving me unsure of how to stop these unwanted calls.
A recorded robocall was received, advertising lower interest rates as part of a financial stimulus, with a similar call being made a couple of days prior from a different number.
Legitimate buisnesses obey the do not call list, but the scammers dont
Among the array of spoofed numbers utilized by 'card services' scammers to deceive people, this one stands out - searching my name online can provide insights into stopping such annoying calls and even offer some amusement
I had a similar experience with the call.
Like others, I am registered on the DNC list
I got a call from this numberr, but i dont no who it is
I had the same recorded message as others and they call me repeatedly, several times a week from Zeeland, MI
The number 616-613-2199 was left in the message
The same pre-recorded message about lowering interest rates has been received multiple times, which is ironic since we don't use credit cards. It's concerning that despite being on the DNC Registry, these calls continue, and the legitimacy of the business is questionable due to the numerous different area codes used.
