Are You Being Called By Commercial Acceptance Company?*

Stop the
Harassment

You have legal rights. We can help.

 


If you are so deep in debt that your credit cards, medical bills and other monthly obligations have gone into arrears, sooner or later debt collectors will start to call and demand payment. Don’t let them bully you into unsupportable payment arrangements: you have the right to tell them to back off.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, or FDCPA, was passed in 1977 after complaints about unscrupulous collection agencies reached unmanageable levels. This consumer protection law makes it illegal for debt collectors to use strategies like the following to collect a debt.

  • Calling at inconvenient times, usually before 8:00 a.m. and after 9:00 p.m
  • Calling you at work after they’ve been advised that such calls are not allowed
  • Publicly posting details of a debt on social media and other public outlets
  • Discussing the debt with your family (with the possible exception of your spouse), friends, and co-workers
  • Swearing, raising their voice, and making threats
  • Telling you that you have broken the law and can go to jail

Alleged Violations against Commercial Acceptance Company

According to PACER, on or about June 23, 2014, Commercial Acceptance Company sent a collection letter to a Pennsylvania resident. She later claimed that her account number was visible through the glassine envelope window, making her personal information publicly viewable.

Feeling harassed by Commercial Acceptance Company, she hired a consumer attorney and sued the company for allegedly violating the FDCPA in the following ways:

  • Making her account number visible to third parties
  • Using unfair and unconscionable means to collect a debt

The matter was later dismissed.
