NCO Group, Inc. ("NCO") based in Horsham, Pennsylvania,[2] is a business process outsourcing company and collection agency that provides accounts receivable management, customer relationship management and back office solutions for its clients. Founded in 1926, it was a publicly traded company (Nasdaq: NCOG) from 1996 through 2006, when it was purchased by One Equity Partners (OEP), the private investment arm of JP Morgan Chase & Co., and other co-investors.[3] Although a privately held company, NCO still files with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, as it issues public debt.

In 2004, NCO was fined by the United States Federal Trade Commission for violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act for improper reporting of consumer's debt information.[4]

NCO employs approximately 30,000 people in over 100 locations around the globe,[5] through its many subsidiaries, including NCO Financial Systems, Inc., NCO Customer Management, Inc., Transworld Systems, Inc., University Accounting Services LLC, and Systems & Service Technologies, Inc., among others. In 2008, NCO acquired a large ARM competitor, Outsourcing Solutions Inc. (OSI).[6]. In 2010, NCO reported total revenues of $1.6 billion[7]

FTC Ruling
In May 2004, NCO agreed to settle a claim for violations of the U.S. Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), and pay a fine of $1.5 million to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).[4] This claim was related to the FTC’s review of NCO’s delinquency date reporting under section 623(a)(5) of the FCRA, primarily related to a large group of consumer accounts from one client that were transitioned to NCO for servicing during 1999. NCO received incorrect information from the prior service provider at the time of transition. NCO became aware of the incorrect information during 2000 and removed the incorrect information from the consumers’ credit files prior to the FTC claim. Section 623(a)(5) has since been amended by Congress to eliminate the liability that was the basis for the claim. NCO has maintained, and continues to maintain, that it has complied fully with section 623(a)(5) of the FCRA.

Pennsylavania settlement
NCO has also been accused by many consumers of habitually violating the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, refusing to verify and validate the debt, contacting third parties about the debt, claiming that they were calling from a law firm, attempting to collect debts that were past the statute of limitations, and harassing and threatening people on the phone.[8] As a result, in 2006, NCO paid a $300,000.00 settlement to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for violations of the state's consumer protection statute.[8]

Fair Debt Collection Practices Act

Consumer Credit Protection Act – Laws Protecting Consumer Rights

Enacted in 1977, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) concerns the way you are treated and contacted by debt collectors. It provides collection agencies with a list of rules to follow that protect you from harassment, false statements and unfair practices. For example, debt collectors can only contact you between 8 a.m. and 9 p.m. They must identify themselves as collectors and explain why they have called. They aren’t allowed to contact you at work if your employer does not approve or if you request they stop contact in writing.

They called but left no voicemail, and I know for a fact that I have never done business with this number or company in the past
