Contacted employer after asked not to
Complaint: This debt company sent the first coorespondence to me via email at my job and stated they were a debt collector. My work email is not owned by me but instead the company I work for and my assistant opens my email. The embarrashment was overwhelming. When I called and asked why they did n't call my cell or send a letter to my home they stated I gave the email address to verizon so they felt it was okay. By the way, the only reason verizon had my work email is because that is how they confirmed I was eligible for the discount. This practice is not at all right and needs to be addressed as it has caused me embarrasment.
