The harassing company pays our fees.
They’re legit. Collection Experts has practiced collections for roughly 7 years. The business incorporated on December 11th, 2013 and opened its BBB file on January 1st, 2017. The Better Business Bureau has accredited this collections company, and additionally awarded the company an “A+” rating. Ultimately, it can be concluded that Collection Experts is a real, legitimate business due to the company’s many years of experience, its accreditation, and its outstanding rating from the BBB.
According to the Collection Experts LinkedIn page, the company claims, “We can deliver debt collection solutions that transform past-due accounts into on-time payments while protecting your brand name and keeping your customers happy.” Many complainants were ironically incredibly unhappy with this company’s performance. Lastly, zoominfo.com writes that the company has an employee base of 39, and revenue of $8 million, and according to the Better Business Bureau, Vice President Phil Dillon and President Kristine Joanis head the leadership of the collections company.
Remember that while it is important that you do not ignore the need to resolve your alleged debt with Collection Experts, as this could potentially harm your credit and ability to take out future loans, be wary of any suspicious activity where the company could potentially be violating the FDCPA. With that being said, your alleged debt could be real and needs to be dealt with.
Collection Experts’ website is currently malfunctioning and is unavailable to the public. Because of this lack of available information, this company could collect for a number of different businesses and work within multiple areas of collections. Therefore, it is important that as a consumer you confirm with the collections company about what debt is specifically owed and to whom. Inquiring as soon as possible is the smartest move to make, and if you feel as though this company has breached their FDCPA rights be sure to contact an attorney to help you file a lawsuit.

The collections company could have also been a part of more lawsuits, sanctions, and penalties.

It is illegal for collections companies to make empty threats to sue you or garnish your wages. If Collection Experts cannot verify your debt or you may not owe said debt, they will likely choose not to sue. However, like all debt collection companies, Collection Experts can still summon debtors to court and garnish wages after a default judgement.
