Allegiance Telecom





Kimberly of baltimore, MD June 11, 2009

7-9 times a day this number calls my cell once the voice mail picks up it it dead silence for almost a minutes. this is happening daily over and over again for the last few weeks. each time i am charged my cell phone company.

Joseph of Oakville, ON June 8, 2009

I get several calls a week from this number. It starts with a recorded message about my credit card and goes on to offer me a lower interest rate. Prompts me to push 3 to be removed from the calling list. I have done this several times and still get calls. If I push "1". I get a telemarketer who is trying to sign me up for something. As soon as I tell them to remove my number from their call list, they hang up. Then the whole thing starts all over again next time

I have been receiving CALLS , MANY. Tonight 5/12/09 at 9:25pm from 954-653-2113 and they only leave a message for us to call back about our "timeshares". We do not answer the phone when it's marked "BLOCKED NAME" So we always get these messages on the machine. We do not have timeshares!! I finally reversed- look up on the computer and see that it's from Allegiance Telecom and so are a lot of other complaints.

This has been going on for months. So when the phone rang again after the first one at 9:25pm tonight, I answered. She said "margaret" I said there is no Margaret here, she said oh really, isn't this (and said my phone number) and I said yes it is, but no Margaret here. Then she said well do you have timeshares? I said no I don't and she hung up. She had "very bad English" and I don't believe she was from the US.

Today 4/15/09-This comapny has been calling & hanging up since 7:30 am my time...non-stop every 15 minutes

Joyce of Lancaster, CA March 28, 2009


I began receiveing calls from this number and I let it go to voice mail as I did not know this number. Today I attempted to call them back becasue they keep calling. When you call back it takes a long time to ring and when it does the message says you have reached a disconnected number. In looking at all these complaints on this site I did notice a couple of people mentioned looking into grant information. I also did that and I only agreed to the 1.95 charge for the CD of information to be sent to me.

The person on the phone sounded like he was form India and he was very agressive about me accepting other offer and he would yell over me. I finally yelled at him to listen to me I only agree to the 1.95 information and nothing else and I ask him to confirm he understood that and he said yes. Then I look at my checking account and I had be debited and additional 7.95 and 39.95 by MYGRANTSITENET 87749 LAS VEGAS NV.

I called to get my money back and again the person was yelling over me and saying you were charged the 39.95 for the information. I told her I absolutely made it clear I wanted nothing but the 1.95 information that was offered. After arguing and threatening with reporting them to all the agencies I was refunded. It seems like a scam is going on here and they may be tied together. I like everyone else are worried what they might be able to do with the information they have. The calls from Allsgiance Telecom started after I dealt with the Grant people. I hope there is some way to put and end to this. It is very annoying and troubling as you cannot be sure what may come next.

Merchel of White Plains, NC March 16, 2009


My business line rang and when I answered, a gentlemen asked me if I was Merchel who social security number was (he stated my entire SSN). He wanted me to confirm if the information quote was correct, which I would not. I asked him who he was and he responded, I could call back to 213-995-3027. When I contacted this number, I just get an answer machine. I just want to know who this company or person is that knows MY ENTIRE SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER!!!!!

Kimberley of Fowlerville, MI February 18, 2009


I have been receiving calls at least once or twice per day for the last month from a phone number that comes in on my caller ID as Michigan Call. Each time it is a hang up phone call. I have called the number back and am always told that the call cannot be completed as dialed. I attempted to do a reverse phone number search on the phone number and was informed (after spending 4.95) that it was a non-working number serviced by Allegiance Telecom. When I attempt to contact Allegiance Telecom at the above number, I receive no answer and there is no answering machine or voice mail available.

After reading other complaints with regards to this company; I am very concerned about what my next phone bill will show. In addition to this I am constantly being forced to answer what I call crank calls from this number. Since we are a foster home, we are required to maintain a land-line phone and answer that phone when we are available. This puts us in the very precarious position of possibly being subjected to whatever scam this company is perpetrating.

Raymond of Boca Raton, FL January 12, 2009


I keep getting a call which says it is from Fax General (owned by Allegiance Telecom). There is no one there and if you call that number you get a message that it is not in service! This is happening 4 to 8 times day! Who are these people? What are they trying to do? How can I (we) stop them?

Keep answering a phone for no reason. A big and useful bother.

Bria of Pomona, CA December 25, 2008


While checking my mail I recieved my house phone bill. Normally the bill is on 20.00 five for the basic home phone and 15.00 for my Internet Account. While walking up the stairs I noticed a charge of 795.49 for long distance. I was outraged due to the fact that I didnt have long distance on my phone. I called the phone number the bill claimed I called several times(925) 401-9202. There was a loud screeching sound then automated system came on and it was a internet chat line of some sort.

I called to ATT disputing this amount. After my account being reviewed ATT found it to be no line switching and deemed the calls to be in fact correct. (of course you wouldnt find any line switching once a solid block on my accountwas placed). After speaking with one of the agents at ATT she in fact stated there may have been incorrect dial up applied to my account and the culprit Allegiance Telecom may have hacked into my phone from the computer, although I had asked for a block several times on my account which was irrelevent to the associate at the time. Currently their stating I have to pay this balance although I never dailed the above mentioned number as well as having the block.

Since I have recieved this Bill my Internet was disconnected thereforee I was unable to complete my online classes causing me to drop the class. This bill is damaging to my good name as well as credit. Overall this bill has caused financial as well as emotional damages for me not only as a consumer but as a struggling college student.
