Given the amount of time that has passed since the OP posted his comments, it is unlikely that he will be back to answer your question. Not that he owes you any explanation or answer, mind you. Perhaps he paid the debt. Perhaps he lost the case and is having his wages garnished. Perhaps he found out that the company could not properly validate the debt per the FDCPA, and so did not pay them a dime. Who knows.
Incorrect. WWR accepted the offer but wanted him to eat a consent judgment to enforce it. That does not mean the amount claimed was correct, or that WWR could or did prove it, or that it did not file wet-inked papers.
Clearly Bob did not trust his opponent so far as plundering his assets. It may well be that Bob disagreed with the debt claim but folded early, because the thought of attending a court hearing frightened him and he was underprepared to fight. This would make his reaction alarmingly similar to most people who are sued for old debt, usually because they don't know their rights. This would also make him the shivering pigeon predators like WWR like best, a defendant who fails to defend.
Since you seem to be talking about "time to pay the piper", and chance you would like to provide your expert insight and analysis regarding any of these very recent FDCPA in which WWR are defendants?
When you deal with tens of thousands of people who owe debts you are going to have some people that don't like the fact that their debt is in the hands of a collection law firm so they sue. Some actually believe that WWR has no right to contact them but WWR is bound by the FDCPA to send an initial letter to the debtor informing them that a debt that they owe to the original creditor has not been paid in an efficient manner and has been placed in the hands of WWR. WWR also has the right to call the debtor until the debtor informs them that they don't want to be contacted. If the debtor informs WWR to cease and desist, WWR still has the right to file suit against the debtor. Even when WWR follows the FDCPA people don't like it.
They bought the debt for pennies on the dollar-debt PAST the statue of limitations. Nice job making a fool of yourself for all to see. Want to prove me wrong? Post a link that shows you're speaking the truth!
"WWR still has the right to file suit against the debtor" - that goes both ways, ans ShillKill has so clearly shown. I'd like to see how many cases turn out in the alleged debtor's favor, and how many turn out in WWR's.
First, thank you for taking the time to reply. I note with some interested that you responded to me "some people that don't like the fact that their debt is in the hands of a collection law firm so they sue. Some actually believe that WWR has no right to contact them but WWR is bound by the FDCPA to send an initial letter to the debtor informing them that a debt that they owe to the original creditor has not been paid in an efficient manner and has been placed in the hands of WWR."
Now, does this apply to the specific cases I asked you about? I just wanted to see if you are positing that these specific plaintiffs merely sued (and a firm took the case) because they were displeased that the debt is in the hands of a firm. Again, thank you in advance for your time and consideration
