Are You Being Called By Trust Financial, LLC*? Here’s What You Need to Know

The average U.S. household carries a credit card balance of $15,000. Making the minimum payments can become overwhelming if you lose your job get divorced, or happens to reduce your cash flow. If debt collectors start calling, they may be abusive in their payment demands. If they are, you have grounds to take legal action.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, or FDCPA, is a consumer protection law. This law regulates the conduct of third-party debt collectors. Actions like the following are illegal when used to collect or attempt to collect a consumer debt:

• Calling you before 8:00 a.m. and after 9:00 p.m. in your time zone
• Saying that they have court papers ready to serve on you when they don’t
• Pretending to be attorneys, police officers, or federal agents
• Using profane and obscene language
• Demanding an amount that is not supported by law or the original debt agreement
• Reporting inaccurate information to the credit bureau

Alleged Violations against Trust Financial, LLC*

According to PACER, in or around 2017, Trust Financial, LLC started trying to collect an unpaid legal invoice from an Idaho consumer and his wife. The wife was the one who had retained the law firm, and claimed that although she originally disputed the debt, it was subsequently handled. When she refused to pay Trust Financial, LLC, the agency sued her (and her husband, although he had nothing to do with the debt).

Feeling harassed by Trust Financial, LLC, the consumers hired an attorney and sued the company for allegedly:

• Using false, deceptive, and misleading means to collect a debt
• Trying to collect an amount not permitted by law or the original creditor agreement
• Misrepresenting the character, amount, or legal status of the debt

In February 2019, a judge awarded the plaintiff $3,001 plus costs and attorney fees.
