ASSETCARE - ASSET ACCEPTANCE - NCO Beyond the SOL! Inquiry on my credit report 7/13/2007 NOT OK WITH ME!! Norcross Georgia

Don't be upset sluggo that people come here to get educated and you don't get a return on your risk investment. You seemed to have neglected, as all slug collectors due, to even mention the FDCPA and what these people's rights are. They have the right to request validation and NOT pay anything that would restart the SOL.

You are all wrong.

These are third party debt collectors we are talking about here, so the FDCPA applies. Therefore, a CEASE COMMUNICATION request is a LEGAL request and must be honored.

Now, combine that CEASE COMMUNICATION request with a DISPUTE OF DEBT and all collections activity must cease until the debt is validated.

Actually, ignoring a debt, in many cases, does "make it go away", legally. It is called Statute of Limitations.

Most third party debt collectors will NOT sue. That is a fact.

I have proven this. I walked away from approx $170,000 in unsecured debt in 2001 and have not repaid even 1 penny, and have no judgements against me! Now, all of those debts are past SOL and are LEGALLY uncollectable.

These companies tried bending me over and lost. My full story is posted several places here on ROR on why I did it, how I did it, etc.

SOL and calls are separate 48 out of 50 times
You are complaining about the calls even though the SOL has expired? SOL has nothing to do with the collection agenencies collecting the debt. You want the calls to stop? Pay the money you owe. There are only 2 states that stop the calls when the SOL expires, you are not from one of them. The only way to stop them from collecting is to pay what you owe. Even if you move to one of those 2 states the debt is not from there so they can continue to collect until they are dealing with probate. After that you will be left alone.

Actually, that's incorrect
Actually, if your debt is out of SoL, you can send them a cease and desist letter (ONLY do that if the SoL HAS expired!). Per the FDCPA, they cannot contact you by phone after you've demanded that they cease contact with you.

It might also be a good idea to let them know that your debt is, indeed, out of SoL in order to curtail any suit they might file (they can STILL sue you. They often rely on your settling with them prior to court in order to avoid a judgment against you -- or assume that you won't appear in court and that they can win by default).

In any case, the debt IS still yours, however, the CA (in this case, AssetCare) has lost their 'bite at the apple' in having the court system assist them with collecting. The courts tell them, essentially, 'Tough noogies. If you wanted the money, you should have acted quicker!' For CA, the SoL is 4 years for written accounts. 4 years is a long time and A/C should gotten up off their butts and sued you already.

Here's a sample C&D letter. Just fill in the pertinent info and good luck!!

Wrong, wrong!
First of all...you owe the money which you just admitted. Avoiding it isn't going to make it go away...and sending cease/decease letter doesn't really solve your problem (the money owed, inquires on your credit report). You need to borrow the money or get a job or not make bills you can't pay. Or pay 20-100 dollars a month to get it paid. You have lots of options what you had like over 5 years to pay it...get to it and stop avoiding your obligation!
