      Gatestone Co is reporting a collection account they do not own on my name was sold to another agency and was paid in full to that agency. Both original lender and secondary agency have reported the payment as paid in full. I have tried contacting Gatestone multiple times via phone and call will either drop after 10 minutes of wait time or will send me to a voicemail. Also, I sent multiple emails still there is no answer.

      Thank you for contacting Gatestone via the Kitchener BBB response portal (on August 17, 2022)
      Please be informed that the Office was able to locate an account in our technology system under the name or contact information provided through this media. The account has been paid-in-full/PIF (on August 24, 2022) and recalled by the Client on August 25, 2022. Henceforth the consumer will receive no further call from Gatestone regarding their PIF account.
      The Agency requests that the complainant please contact Gatestone & Co Inc. directly and provide verifiable validation information, as it relates to the caller and the caller ID; so, the Office can better assist, and if so, resolve this complaint of you/******* receiving calls from an unknown person and the Company won’t stop calling your phone number or your place of residence/POR.
      From a reasonable investigation conducted by the Agency (on March 10, 2023), we determine that the allegations of call inconvenience are INVALID, as the accounts notes revealed that on August 17, 2022 a call was placed at the phone number ending-3664 which was answered.
      However, the called party was hesitant to go through the accountholder authentication process as they believed it was a spam call.
      Nevertheless, the Agent tried to provide as much information about the caller, but the Agent could not proceed further with the called party - without first verifying the called party as the accountholder.
      Nonetheless, the assertions that the complainant received a call from: 1) an unknown person, 2) who did not provide any information, 3) who called without any caller ID, 4) who was asking the called party for their information, 5) who threatened with continued harassment, and 6) that the complainant have no idea what they/The Agent/Gatestone & Co Inc. was calling about is quite FALSE.
      It is, therefore, Gatestone’s position that no improper action was taken regarding this complainant as it relates to communication, telephone number, caller ID, calls, place of residence/POR, privacy, or conduct.
      The Agency considers this complaint resolved in the best interest of all impacted or affected. We advised that the complainant please contact GATESTONE/THE CLIENT - to resolve this complaint AMICABLY. Best Regards.

      I fell behind on a hot water tank rental. It wasn't much. Around $400. The company sent the file to Gatestone and Co. and they sent me a letter saying I need to contact the company and pay. Which I did immediately. Paid in full and discharged from further payments for the rental tank. Any this Gatestone and Co has continued to call and leave recorded voicemails to call back for some urgent situation. All attempts to call back fail as no one answers the phone. I blocked their number and now my phone doesn't ring but a voicemail just appears and it's them. Brutal. STOP. Go away. Bills paid. Nothing to see here.

      COURTESY: The Agency apologizes for the inconvenience or trouble caused while attempting to communicate with the called party, consumer or complainant as it relates to this account. On January 16, 2023, it was revealed that the account was settled a year and the consumer requests that all calls and emails stop regarding a paid-in-full/PIF invoice. On January 23, 202, the Client noted the account that the consumer paid-in-full/PIF with them their invoice (on May 20, 2022); however, this was not known or communicated to GATESTONE until January 23, 2023.
      Due to no fault of our own, the Agency takes this time to apologize to the consumer for contacting them after May 20, 2022, when they had already paid-in-full/PIF their invoice to our client; however, this was not disclosed by the consumer until January 16, 2023, when the account was documented with such pertinent information. We confirm that this account has been closed and returned to our CLIENT on January 23, 2023; Henceforth the consumer will receive not further calls, voicemail or emails from Gatestone regarding this account. Respectfully, Gatestone
      CONCLUSION: After investigating this complaint; it is Gatestone’s position that no improper action was taken regarding communication or on this account. The Agency considers this complaint resolved in the best interest of all impacted or affected.
