Can Action Revenue Recovery Sue Me or Garnish My Wages?

It is illegal for a debt collector to make empty threats to sue you or garnish your wages. It is also unlikely ARR would sue you for a debt you may not owe or they cannot validate. However, debt collection agencies are known to have summoned debtors to court and garnish wages after a default judgement. Contacting an attorney BEFORE this could possibly happen would be a smart move. We’ve helped thousands of consumers fight back against unscrupulous debt collection harassers.

Can you help me file a No Fee Lawsuit against Action Revenue Recovery – AAR?

Absolutely. You can sue a debt collector. Here are some Sample Complaints

In 2018, an Arkansas consumer filed a proposed class action against Action Revenue Recovery, LLC that accused the debt collector of Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) violations. The plaintiff alleges that she received an e-mail from the defendant in June 2018 with an attached letter attempting to collect a debt for medical services received in 2010, 2011, and 2012. The lawsuit claims that the letter did not meaningfully state the current creditor and failed to inform the plaintiff that the debt was beyond the statute of limitations.

Complaints against Action Revenue Recovery cite problems resulting from failure to verify debts and disputes about the accuracy of information reported to the credit reporting agencies. In March 2018, a complainant alleged that ARR had violated provisions of the FDCPA and the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). According to the complainant, ARR “failed to notify…him about reporting derogatory” information to the credit reporting agencies. The complainant cited a provision of the FCRA that states, “notice required under subparagraph (A) shall be provided to the customer prior to, or no later than 30 days after…furnishing the negative derogatory information to a consumer reporting agency.” The complainant also stated that “all notices must be timely and properly given by dated certified mail receipt”; however, the complainant stated that he had “asked for documentation and received no response.” In addition, the complainant alleged that Action Revenue Recovery “failed to give… him his ‘Mini-Miranda’ five days prior to placing this derogatory item on all of his credit reports,” which the complainant claimed was a violation of the FDCPA that entitled him to statutory damages of $1,000. The complainant also alleged that ARR’s failure to notify the complainant also makes them liable for defamation according to Louisiana state law. In its response, Action Revenue Recovery acknowledged the complainant’s allegations of FDCPA and FCRA violations. However, they stated that “after reviewing their records, they do not agree with the consumer’s opinion concerning their conduct.” ARR stated that they would have “appreciated direct contact from the consumer in an attempt to work through these concerns, preventing the need for a” formal complaint. Regardless, ARR indicated that they had “discussed this complaint with their client and chose to close the account and remove the credit bureau listing.”

In January 2018, a complainant submitted a similarly-worded complaint, citing the same violations and using an identically formatted complaint template. In response, Action Revenue Recovery again disagreed with the complainant’s allegations. However, as in the previous complaint, they also agreed to request that credit reporting agencies remove the item from the complainant’s credit reports.

Action Revenue Recovery AAR Calling You?

Federal laws protect you. The Fair Debt Collections Practices Act (FDCPA) regulates the behavior of collection agencies by prohibiting actions such as the use of abusive or threatening language; harassment; or the use of false or misleading information to collect a debt. The FCRA regulates how collection agencies and creditors report delinquent debts to credit reporting agencies. Additional consumer protection laws include the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and the Consumer Financial Protection Act (CFPA).

Can I sue ARR for harassment?

Yes. If you want to enforce your rights, or recover money for violations — you need to sue. Federal laws provide individuals like you with a means to seek monetary damages in court. For example, the FDCPA allows consumers who have been violated to recover damages of up to $1,000, plus attorney fees and court costs.

    I received a random notice from Action Revenue Recovery that I needed to pay in full before it went to collections. I never saw that amount or notice until then. I got a notification from CreditKarma the other day that my score went down and it was because of the ARR account went into collections. I will pay but I am not sure why they never gave me any insight but just told me I had to pay right away or it was going into collections. I would really like this off my credit score as I have been working very hard to get my score up.
