Who is Asset Acceptance?
Encore Capital Group is a debt collector/debt buyer/collection agency that
is based out of San Diego,
California. It purchases "charged off" debt from creditors for
pennies on the dollar, and then attempts
to collect the full amount of the debt from the individual that owes it.
Encore Capital tries to collect
these old debt by filing lawsuits against consumers. Encore Capital Group
filed nearly 45,000 lawsuits
around the country in 2008 (as reported in its 2008 10K statement filed
with the Securities and
Exchange Commission). Encore Capital Group also has a subsidiary known
as Midland Credit
Management, another prominent collection agency. Encore Capital Group is
one of the major debt
buyers in the U.S. with revenues over $100 million.
Sometimes a debt collector will harass or abuse a consumer in an attempt
to collect a debt. Such as by
making repeated and continuous phone calls, calling all hours of the day
or night, or calling a consumer's
place of work, neighbors or relatives. Federal law (the Fair Debt Collection
Practices Act), and some
state laws (for example, the California Fair Debt Collection Practices
Act), regulates how debt collectors
are allowed to attempt to collect debts).
Whether you owe a debt to Encore Capital Group, or any other debt collector,
they, must still follow
federal and state collection laws!
