Are You Being Called By NCEP, LLC?*


The debt collection industry is the subject of more complaints than any other industry under the purview of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission. Although the law prohibits it, debt collectors often resort to bullying and threats to make consumers pay up. If this happens to you, be aware that such behavior is illegal and you have recourse under the law.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) makes it illegal for third-party debt collectors to harass and intimidate consumers into paying a debt. If you are being pursued by a collection agency that uses tactics like the following, they are breaking the law.

  • Using profane and obscene language
  • Discussing your debt with anyone except you, your spouse or your attorney
  • Demanding amounts not supported by law or the original creditor agreement
  • Failing or refusing to identify themselves as debt collectors in every communication
  • 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

Alleged Violations against NCEP, LLC

Bertha Jimenez vs. NCEP, LLC*

According to PACER, on or about December 1, 2012, NCEP, LLC contacted TransUnion regarding a credit card debt allegedly owed by an Illinois resident. The balance originally reported was $1,223, but when the plaintiff checked her credit report on Experian, it alleged a balance of $1,325 account balance in November, 2013, even though NCEP, LLC had no statutory or contractual right to collect an additional $102 on the alleged debt.

In December, 2013, the company inexplicably decreased the account balance, communicating an alleged amount of $1,223 to Experian even though the plaintiff had made no payments toward the debt. Confused and feeling harassed by NCEP, LLC, she hired a consumer attorney and sued the agency for the following alleged FDCPA violations:

  • Attempting to collect amounts not supported by law or the original creditor agreement
  • Using false, deceptive or misleading means to collect a debt
  • Communicating false information to the credit bureaus

The matter was later dismissed.
