Can Designed Receivable Solutions 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 DRSI 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 Designed Receivable Solutions?

Absolutely. Here are some Sample Complaints

Complaints against Designed Receivable Solutions cite problems resulting from disputes about the validity of debts and the accuracy of information reported to credit reporting agencies. In May 2018, a complainant stated that 3 years previously, he had “had a bad toothache and had to go to the emergency room.” According to the complainant, “at the time,he was fully insured through Medi-Cal and never thought twice about being billed for anything. Then about a year” previous to the complaint, he “ran his credit and saw a lone collection account for about $400.” He said that he had “called DRSI right away and received no help whatsoever…regarding” what he termed this “unfair situation.” He said he had “also called the hospital, and they also gave him the run-around and always neglected to call him back when they said they would. Since then,” he had called DRSI “to demand that this collection be removed.” He stated that his subsequent calls to the hospital indicated that “they are stating that they have no record of his visit and do not know why he was sent to collections. The hospital allegedly stated that… it could have been a mistake that has since been remedied in their system.” He said he was happy about this development “because he thought DRSI would have no choice but to close this account and remove it from his report completely as if it were never there. Instead,” DRSI allegedly told him initially that the bill was “too old, so there is nothing that can be done.” He became angry, so DRSI told him to “go to the Social Security office and lose a whole day of work to try and hunt down his records to prove to them that he had insurance at the time of his hospital visit.” He said this response was “absolutely unacceptable” because DRSI’s client was the hospital, “and if the hospital says they have no record or reason in their system to have sent him to collections, then DRSI should immediately remove and close the account.”DRSI’s refusal was “creating a huge burden on the complainant because this one erroneous collection account was making it impossible to finance the car that he needed for work in his second job as an Uber driver.” In the meantime, he has had “to rent a car for $250 dollars a week because nobody will finance someone who has an unpaid collection on their report.” He said he had refused “to pay…$457 for a mistake.”

In response, Designed Receivable Solutions stated “there was no insurance or Medi-cal information provided to their client at time of service. The account dates back to 2014, so it is too late now to try and open a new claim with any insurer. However, as a courtesy to the complainant,” DRSI agreed to delete the account from the credit bureaus.

Designed Receivable Solutions 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 DRSI 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.
