You can always contact the police. They are very used to handling these situations and there are laws here which take a very dim view of these practices.

Call the police. We had a similar problem a few years ago when debt collectors were calling our home number looking for the previous user. We called the police and the police called the debt collectors and told them whoever they were looking for weren't using this number anymore and they never called again.
Did you buy the property you're living in right now? My father in law had the same problem you're having and I did a land search and proved to the debt collectors the person they were looking for was a previous tenant and they backed off.

Definitely, you can write a complaint to the collection agency or the institution which designated the agency (e.g. the bank or mobile service company, etc). If they fail to provide a constuctive reply within a given period (say 7 days) or continue to make attempts to collect the debt, you can report to the police and the Consumer Council. As well we have had good results with a well crafted lawyer's letter.
