I know first hand what it is like to be victimized and violated by this corrupt collection agency who several times violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act. They victimized me more than 10 times. Despite the fact that insuance paid the bills, this collection agency still sends me collection letters and reported me to credit reporting agencies.
On Thursday, June 23, I received a very large manila envelope from the Federal Trade Commission, Washington DC.in it were more than 100 complaints filed against Allstate Financial Services) DBA Allstate Adjustment Bureau.
This information was sent to me under the Freedom Of Information Act.
Some of the violations are:
—Provide inaccurate information,
—Deception,
—Misrepresentation
—Falsely represents character, Amount, Status of debt
—Reinsert deleted item in file without notice
—Knowingly supplies inaccurate information to credit bureau,
—Refuses to verify debt after debtor makes written request,
—Threats of violence,
—Harassment
—Obscene/Profane language,
—Fails to reinvestigate disputed information,
—Tells someone other than debtor about the debt,
—Threatens to file criminal charges
—Falsely threatens arrest, seizure of property
—Calls debtor after getting "cease communication" notice
—Calls any person repeatedly or continously
—Fails to indentify self as debt collector
The Nevada Financial Institutions Division (FID), which regulates collection agencies, blows off complaints against this collection agency because Michael O'Connor (the president of Allstate Financial Services dba Allstate Adjustment Bureau) was appointed by Governor Kenny Guinn to the FID Advisory Board.
