NCO Group to Pay Largest FCRA Civil Penalty to Date

One of the nation’s largest debt-collection firms will pay $1.5 million to settle Federal Trade Commission charges that it violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act(FCRA) by reporting inaccurate information about consumer accounts to credit bureaus. The civil penalty against Pennsylvania-based NCO Group, Inc. is the largest civil penalty ever obtained in a FCRA case.

According to the FTC’s complaint, defendants NCO Group, Inc.; NCO Financial Systems, Inc.; and NCO Portfolio Management, Inc. violated Section 623(a)(5) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The law specifies that any entity that reports information to credit bureaus about a delinquent consumer account that has been placed for collection or written off must report the actual month and year the account first became delinquent. In turn, this date is used by the credit bureaus to measure the maximum seven-year reporting period the FCRA mandates. The provision helps ensure that outdated debts – debts that are beyond this seven-year reporting period – do not appear on a consumer’s credit report. Violations of this provision of the FCRA are subject to civil penalties of $2,500 per violation.

The FTC charges that NCO reported accounts using later-than-actual delinquency dates. Reporting later-than-actual dates may cause negative information to remain in a consumer’s credit file beyond the seven-year reporting period permitted by the FCRA for most information. When this occurs, consumers’ credit scores may be lowered, possibly resulting in their rejection for credit or their having to pay a higher interest rate.

Comments About NCO Financial Systems Inc


Ms

By: Jane Doe

NCO finance has called my home since 1994. They have harassed me and harassed me over a so called debt. They are the 3rd party in this matter. I was told not to even bother contacting them because any tidbit of information could be grounds to sue me. Lots of luck. I am retired. I have no plans to deal with these scumbags. Harassed for this amount of time is disgusting. It is against the law. I don’t owe them anything.

I an a Retired disabled Veteran That is Furnished 100% of everything from the VAMC in Jackson MS. I had a Vehicle Accident on January 6Th. of 2009. I was Classified as a Trauma Case and was transported to “UMC” for treatment instead of the VAMC. I informed the billing originator that I was a Ward of the Federal Government, that their billing needed to be routed through UMC’S Central Billing and the VA would Pay. They did not and they didn’T get payed and sold it to a collection agency. The NCO Association sends Correspondence by Mail and called as many as six times on 09/22/2009. They need to Cease and Desist.


Hello

NCO has been contacting me about a debt that I already paid directly to the creditor. I sent them proof of payment by USPS certified letter. The recipient of the letter illegibly signed his/her name and didn’t not print his/her name as required by certified mail. When I called NCO to verify that they received my proof of payment the claim to never have received it. These guys are worse than mafia. Thank God I’ve documented everything. Time to sue NCO.
