Fair Credit Acts and Identification

18 years 8 months ago
Aren't these companies supposed to identify themselves when they call even if they leave messages on voicemail? Also aren't they supposed to have their ifnormation show up on caller ID? I finally was able to track the number that sometimes shows up; other times they show up as annonymous. Again isn't that also a violation of fair credit acts? They call me at least 3 times a day other weeks it's every hour on the hour for 13 hours. They always just say this is so and so (first names only) and it is imperative that you call my office today at 800XXXXXXXX. Their tone is so nasty.

I spoke to allied interstate on the phone the man was very rude and insisted I give him my checking account and routing number for a payment, I told him I would mail a payment, that I did not like to give out my bank information, he said "so, you are refusing to pay then" I said no, I will mail the payment, he refused to give me their address and said it would cost too much money to send another letter out, I never received the first one from them, yes I do owe money, but my husband was out of work for a while and I tried to explain this to him, and then after they have called at least 6 to 7

 

I need some advice on debt consolidation

18 years 8 months ago
I just came upon this website when searching for debt consolidation. I guess I need some advice on what to do. I have about $7,000 of credit card debt. I have alwaysmade or exceded my min payments but they are still pretty high and I feel like I'm not making any progress. I have used payday loans twice and realized what a scam it is. My credit is decent (never had any problems getting cards) and I have had an account with the same bank for a number of years. I don't own a home.

Does this sound like a FDCPA violation?

18 years 8 months ago
I just received a letter from a collection agency regarding an NSF check. Standard letter it looks like. But this is the part that sounds like a violation of the fdcpa in which I can tell this CA to go packing.. Here is what is written in the letter verbatim: I don't think they can threaten someone with criminal charges especially when this is a civil matter. Is that statement in their letter illegal?
