Collection Letter Lands Financial Recovery Services in Hot Water
Last Updated on May 8, 2018
Sanchez v. Financial Recovery Services, Inc.
Filed: December 14, 2017 ◆§ 1:17cv7286
A consumer in New York alleges Financial Recovery Services mailed her a letter that contains Fair Debt Collection Practices Act violations.
New York
A New York consumer alleges in a proposed class action lawsuit that Financial Recovery Services, Inc. mailed her a collection notice that can reasonably read to have two or more different meanings. The lawsuit, which leans on alleged violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), claims the defendant’s statement of a “Balance due as of October 4, 2017” falsely suggests the plaintiff’s obligation could change as a result of additional interest. The case argues, however, that the plaintiff’s balance was not subject to the accrual of interest, something Financial Recovery Services allegedly failed to disclose in its notice.
