Absolute Resolutions Investment’s website draws readers in by posing probing questions to its visitors. Essentially the website explains why the collections company may have contacted the consumer and who Absolute Resolutions Investment is. Ultimately, Absolute Resolutions Investment takes over debt from credit card companies and department stores by repurchasing the debt. The company explains, “A charge-off occurs when the full minimum payment on your account hasn’t been paid for several months and the creditor has decided they are unlikely to collect the outstanding balance on that account”. After this occurs, Absolute Resolutions Investment takes over the account for collection.
As a result, this information allows consumers to understand that their debt likely comes from unpaid credit card or department store card bills. However, though this is likely the reason for the alleged debt’s existence, it is still incredibly important that you verify your debt with Absolute Resolutions Investment and discuss the account. Acquiring this information is important because due to the outsourcing of debt, one collection account can turn into many reporting on your credit file if the debt is not dealt with.

Unlawful Debt Harassment? Learn the Law & Sue the Collector.
Absolutely. You can sue a debt collector. Here is a sample complaint:
A complainant explains that they were notified that an account with Absolute Resolutions Investment was reported to the credit bureaus as being past due. After receiving this information, the complainant contacted the law firm that has been receiving their payments on their behalf, and later contacted Absolute Resolutions Investment. It was during this period of contact that the complainant was informed by the collections company, “that a decision had been made in July 2020 that all accounts, whether in repayment or not, would be reported to the credit bureaus as being past due”.
Ultimately, the complainant claims that they did not receive notification of this decision, and they were “blindsided by the credit score dropping and the negative item being attached to their credit report”. The complainant claims that they have already paid 1/3 of the amount owed and claims that they should have been informed of such changes, as they can adversely affect credit history.
The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act outlines a person’s protections against the abuses and misconduct of collection agencies. If you find that a debt collector may have violated your FDCPA rights, it is important that you contact and attorney to resolve the matter and receive compensation. You can find your FDCPA rights listed on the Federal Trade Commission’s website under, “Debt Collection FAQs”. Remember that in addition to your rights under the FDCPA, you have supplementary rights to protect yourself from fraudulent practices under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and the Consumer Financial Protection Act (CFPA).
Yes, and if you would like to defend your rights and recover your damages you should. Therefore, suing is the correct course of action if you have found that your FDCPA rights or TCPA rights have been violated. Federal laws protect citizens like you from these fraudulent practices. Moreover, you should choose to award yourself the ability to defend your rights and receive compensation by suing if you feel as though these rights have been violated. Individuals like you can recover damages of up to $1,000, plus attorney fees and court costs.
