by Paul MankinAre you being harassed by debt collection agency 1st Credit of America, LLC?
1st Credit of America, LLC is a debt collection agency that has recently had many complaints lodged against them. In this article, your will learn who they are, how to deal with their harassing and persistent calls, and become educated on legal options surrounding harassment from credit card companies.
Who are they?
1st Credit of America, LLC is a debt collection agency based out of Chicago, Illinois. Founded in 2004, the company is still relatively small. It is said to have approximately 10 to 20 employees within their business. Because they are relatively small in comparison to other debt collection agencies, their private ownership shields them from many prying eyes, allowing them to fly under the radar on their debt collection practices.
Is 1st Credit of America, LLC a scam?
They are a legit company. 1st Credit of America, LLC is a legit and grounded debt collection agency. According to the Better Business Bureau, 1st Credit of America LLC is located on 330 N Elizabeth St, Chicago, IL 60607. With 15 years under their belts, you are able to contact them through a variety of different numbers. The three phone numbers listed for their business are:
- 1 (866) 505-2632
- 1 (800) 293-1486
- 1 (800) 852-9465
If you are in need of getting in contact with their management head, Ms. Addie Watkins is the manager of the establishment, as well as the Customer Support Contact.
What kind of complaints have they had?
Since their inception in 2004, 1st Credit of America, LLC has not had any formal complaints lodged against them. The database of the Better Business Bureau shows that they have an A+ BBB Rating. However, they are not BBB accredited, and customer reviews are not used in the calculation of the BBB rating. This does not mean, however, that they have not attempted to harass debtors such as yourself through such means like phone calls from debt collectors, or using underhanded methods such as wrong number harassment.
Although they have had no formal complaints lodged against them previously, there were rumors of a case that had them on the radar. In July of 2006, 1st Credit of America, LLC allegedly demanded an amount from a New York consumer in the collection amount of $37.00. The consumer believed that the collection fee was not authorized or valid under law or the original creditor agreement. As such, the consumer retained an attorney to sue 1st Credit of America, LLC for attempting to collect an illegal amount not permitted by the law or the original agreement, using unfair means to collect the debt, and misrepresenting the amount, character, and legal status of the debt.
The case was later dismissed by the courts.
Can 1st Credit of America, LLC sue me?
Under the formal law, it is illegal for a debt collector to attempt to make empty threats to sue you or attempt to garnish your wages to pay back your debt. It is also unlikely that a small company such as 1st Credit of America will attempt to sue you for a debt that you may not owe them, and that they are not able to validate through proper means.
However, this does not mean they will not attempt to extort you through other methods. Many debt collection agencies have been known to summon you to court and attempt to garnish your wages through a default judgement of the courts.
Can you help Protect me from 1st Credit of America?
We absolutely are able to help you. Protecting debtors from illegal harassment, such as the email claim from 1st Credit of America, LLC, is something that is necessary and needed. Depending on how they attempt to harass you, you are not only eligible for protection through certain means, but you may also be entitled to a No Fee Lawsuit depending on the level of harassment.
In many ways, many of the practices attempted by debt collectors can be illegal and against the FDCPA. For instance, in the case mentioned above, if 1st Credit of America attempted to continue the sustained harassment through a series of emails and phone calls, they would be going against federal laws that specifically prohibit the usage of harassment and threatening language when collecting on debts. Not only that, but since the collection in the above case may have been deemed false or misleading, if you run into this situation as well, you may have a larger case against the company for improper practices.
However, if you wish to enforce your rights and stand for yourself, you need to make sure you sue. Debt collector harassment can only be combated through vigilant and aggressive means by you, the debtor, calling them out and making it known that you are being harassed by debt collectors.
Although it may seem scary and intimidating attempting to sue a debt collector, it is very possible. Look to hire a specialized debt collector harassment lawyer or attorney. These attorneys specialize in debt collector harassment. They will also be able to guide you on how to report debt collector harassment, and ensure that you are not left exposed to their tactics.

by Paul MankinIs the debt collection agency American Credit Acceptance Corp harassing you?
Who are American Credit Acceptance Corp? Although they look like a legitimate company that works in finance, is that all there is to it? And are they going above and beyond the court of law? Here are all the things you need to know if you have been contacted by the debt collection agency American Credit Acceptance Corp about a new or existing debt, and how to handle them.
What is American Credit Acceptance Corp?
American Credit Acceptance Corp, also known as American Credit Acceptance LLC, is considered as a Consumer Finance Company that serves upstate South Carolina. They deal in multiple different areas, in both financing, as well as debt collection for and through businesses.
Is American Credit Acceptance Corp a legit Debt Collection Agency?
Although they are not primarily a debt collection agency, they are known to help collect on debts as well. They have been in business since 2007 and have been accredited since 2013. They also go by the name Spartan Financial Partners and hold an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. However, they also have a 2.6 star rating out of 5 from 60 customer reviews.

Fax Number: 1-866-731-4883
Does American Credit Acceptance Corp have Complaints against them?
American Credit Acceptance Corp has multiple complaints against them. Through the BBB, they have over 400 customer complaints, as well as 40 negative reviews left in the BBB database.
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s Consumer Complaint Database shows 467 complaints that match with American Credit Acceptance as well.
What kind of Complaints have been made?
Although they have multiple complaints lodged against them, they are a bit varied, as some are for things outside of debt collection and harassment. On the CFPB’s CCD, there were 106 complaints about credit reporting, repair, and other personal consumer reports, as well as 71 due to debt collection. Many consumers state that they were given improper information, and that their information was tampered with in an attempt to get the consumer to pay more. Not only that, it is listed that American Credit Acceptance Corp attempted to not report monthly payments from some consumers in an attempt to get them to have to pay late fees.
On the BBB’s database, 281 were due to billing/collections issues, and 122 stated they had issues with the product or service provided to them. The same issues are found here, with many complaints stating that their information was tampered with, or that their monthly payments were not being reported properly, resulting in a loss on their credit score, or overdraft and overdue fees racking up.
Are the Practices of American Credit Acceptance Corp Legal?
These practices are very much not legal. According to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) and Rosenthal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (RFDCPA), debt collection agencies must follow a set of guidelines set forth by the federal government. Many of these laws state that a debt collector may not manipulate, misinform, or misguide you in an attempt to elicit payment. In the cases listed above, it is quite obvious that they attempted to trick and deceive consumers into paying more than they actually owe, which breaks the FDCPA’s rules and guidelines.
How can I protect myself and fight back against American Credit Acceptance Corp?
If you or someone you love has been caught up with American Credit Acceptance Corp, rest assured, there are plenty of steps you can take. The first step is to identify the debt. Make sure that the debt is proper by asking for verification that the debt is real.

by Paul MankinIs the debt collection agency AMS Servicing, LLC harassing you?
Debt collection has not been a new thing, with many companies having been in the business since the early 1900s. In such cases, it is not uncommon to have companies wane in and out of work, and for larger, up and coming debt collection agencies to overtake and absorb smaller chains.
In such cases of an absorption, or an overtake, it can be difficult to see who is still an active collection agency, and who is not. There are a few things you need to know when talking about AMS Servicing LLC, and how to protect yourself if they contact you.
What is AMS Servicing LLC?
There is no listed AMS Servicing LLC on primary databases of debt collection agencies and businesses. The Better Business Bureau has no listing for an AMS Servicing LLC or anything affiliated with them. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau also seems to have no record of an AMS Servicing LLC.
Is AMS Servicing LLC a legit Debt Collection Agency?
Just because they cannot be found, does not mean they are not legitimate. The reason that there is no listing for AMS Servicing LLC is that they were bought out in 2013 by Seneca Mortgage Investments LP, a joint venture of Arbor Commercial Mortgage LLC and EJF Capital LLC.
Seneca Mortgage is listed on the BBB as a multi-location mortgage broker, dealing mostly with setting mortgages and helping those that ask for financial advice. They currently hold an A+ rating with the BBB with no accreditation, and have been in business for 15 years.
AMS Servicing LLC Contact Information
For clarification, we will be putting information on Seneca Mortgage LLC here as they were the company that absorbed AMS Servicing LLC.

Does AMS Servicing LLC have Complaints against them?
AMS Servicing LLC does not have complaints made against them. The BBB and CFPB’s CCD have no registered AMS Servicing LLC in their listing.
There are also no listed complaints against Seneca Mortgage LLC in the BBB database, or the CFPB’s CCD.
Should I be worried about AMS Servicing LLC or Seneca Mortgage LLC?
Because of the merger between AMS Servicing LLC and Seneca Mortgage LLC, there are some difficulties that occur. The relative new startup of Seneca Mortgage LLC means there is not a lot of information to go off of, and it seems they deal primarily with being an online provider.
Because of this, there are dangers in working with them. If you have been contacted by AMS Servicing LLC, or a company calling themselves that, you are most likely dealing with a scammer or illegal company. Since the business AMS Servicing LLC has been acquired by Seneca Mortgage, the business is no longer in service at all. As such, assume all business done by a representative calling themselves AMS Servicing LLC is a scammer, and should not be trusted.
If a representative is calling you on behalf of Seneca Mortgage LLC, approach with caution. Because they are all online, it is extremely difficult getting them to respond to your messages, as well as getting a hold of them. They do have a PO box, but that can mean next to nothing, as the BBB states that they are non-responsive when it comes to mailing, or at least very delayed on the response.
How can I protect myself and fight back against AMS Servicing LLC?
If you or a loved one have been contacted by a representative stating that they are from AMS Servicing LLC, or from Seneca Mortgage LLC, then there are a few steps you should take to protecting yourself. The first step that should be taken is asking about the legitimacy of the debt itself. This can be done in a number of different ways, such as asking for information on the original debt holder, and contacting the previous debt holder personally, and verifying the debt. You can also ask for written verification of the debt, which can be mailed to you. If they cannot provide these details, then you are not required to pay any amount to them at all, and are free to request that they stop harassing you and those you love.
If they continue to badger and harass you, then it may be time to get an experienced debt collection harassment attorney or consumer protection lawyer on your side to help you. We here at Law Office of Paul Mankin, APC are well-versed in dealing with such debt collection agency harassment. With our experienced team of attorneys and lawyers, we are able to help assist you in building a case against these scammers and debt collectors by helping you identify debt collection harassment, as well as getting them to stop the harassment, and reporting them to the proper courts of authority.
Not only can we help you to defend against harassment, we can also help to build a case, and assist you in understanding where the illegal collection patterns are for debt collectors. We are also able to help facilitate any communications or discussions between the parties, ensuring that nothing you say can be used against you.

- Multiple calls per week from a third party collection agency
- Multiple calls in the early morning or late night from debt collectors.

A-1 Collection Service
A-1 Collection Service is a debt collection agency located in New Jersey. A-1 Collection Service’s parent company is the TRAF Group, who also operates under the names American Trading and Credit America. A-1 Collection Service is incorporated in New Jersey as the TRAF Group and has been doing business since 1964.
Contact Information
2297 Highway 33 Ste 906
Trenton, NJ 08690-1717
(609) 771-9200
Since 2016, a total of 16 complaints have been filed against the A-1 Collection Service with the Better Business Bureau (“BBB”). The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a federal agency that protects consumers from unfair, deceptive and fraudulent business practices has received 87 complaints against the company since 2013. Violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (“FDCPA”) alleged in these complaints include the company:
- Refusing to provide consumers with the name and address of the original creditor
- Failing to send consumers verification of the debt
- Continuing collection efforts without providing verification of the debt
- Failing to identify disputed debts as such
The FDCPA requires that a debt collector provide a consumer with the name and address of the original creditor, the amount of the debt, and notice that the consumer has thirty days to dispute the debt. The collector must also inform the consumer that if he/she disputes the debt within the thirty days, it will send the consumer verification of the debt. If the consumer disputes the debt within the given thirty days, the collector must provide that verification and stop all collection efforts until it has done so.
According to a majority of the complaints against A-1 Collection Service, not only does it refuse to provide consumers with verification of a debt and continues its collection efforts once verification has been requested, but it also pursues collection efforts on debts that have been paid or discharged in bankruptcy, attempts to collect fees and charges not authorized by law, and falsely reports information to credit reporting bureaus.
Creditors and debt collectors need to be held accountable for these unethical and unlawful practices. If you are being subjected to any of these, deceptive, or abusive debt collection practices, it is time to hold the TRAF Group and A-1 Collections Service accountable.

by Paul MankinIs Account Management Services, Inc. Harassing You?
Account Management Services, Inc.
Account Management Services, Inc. (AMS) provides debt recovery services to the healthcare industry. The company was founded in 1999 and is based in Cypress, California.
Consumers have reported AMS to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) for noncompliance with federal debt collection laws. The CFPB is a government agency tasked with protecting consumers from unfair, deceptive, or abusive debt collection practices. Consumers most commonly report that AMS engages in the following unlawful debt collection practices:
- Attempting to collect a debt that is not owed by the consumer;
- Attempting to collect more than what is owed; and
- Refusing to validate or provide proof of a debt.
AMS attempted to collect a debt on a medical bill from a consumer. The consumer believed that he had already paid the bill. The consumer requested that AMS provide proof of the debt in accordance in accordance with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). AMS never provided the requested proof. Instead, AMS began calling with increased frequency and hostility. The consumer reported this harassing behavior to the CFPB.
Within five (5) days after initial communication, the creditor or debt collector must send a notice, referred to as the G-Notice. A consumer then has thirty (30) days to dispute a debt and to request proof of the debt. Failure to respond to the request for proof of a debt is a direct violation of the FDCPA.
Creditors and debt collectors should be held accountable for these unethical and unlawful practices. If you are being harassed or subjected to any of these, deceptive, or abusive debt collection practices, it is time to hold AMS accountable. Please contact our office for a free, no obligation consultation at 1-800-219-3577.

by Paul MankinIs C. Tech Collections, Inc. Harassing You?
Tech Collections, Inc. is a debt collection agency located in Mt. Sinai, New York. It has been in business since 1989 and also uses the names U S Collectech and Collect Tech. The company collects for healthcare providers nationwide.
Contact Information:
5505 Nesconset Hwy, Ste. 200
Mt. Sinai, NY 11766-2026
Phone: 888-331-0541
Tech Collections, Inc. describes four types of debtors on its website; the last three descriptions include language such as:
“….one who attacks when contacted regarding the debt. They might yell, make false statements or even create an excuse to delay payment or try not to pay at all.”
“….avoids the debt obligation completely. They will not accept any type of communication and continuously break their promises to pay.”; and
“…..knows from the start that they have no intentions of paying their debt. They will use every excuse under the sun to escape making a payment.”
Complaints against the company, filed with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) seem to indicate that the company’s collection attempts adhere to this philosophy as it treats consumers as if they are lying about thinking the bill was paid or should have been paid by their insurance and/or they are simply trying to avoid paying a debt they know belongs to them. These complaints allege that C. Tech Collections, Inc. continuously attempted to collect on an account that was paid in full and refused to provide verification of debts or acknowledge it received information confirming that the debt had been paid. These collection tactics may violate the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA).
The FDCPA is a federal law that specifically prohibits many practices commonly used by debt collectors, including:
- Falsely representing that they are an attorney or law enforcement officer
- Contacting third parties about a debt
- Attempting to collect fees and charges not included in the original contract
- Falsely implying that a consumer will be arrested if they do not pay
- Calling consumers before 8:00 a.m. or after 9:00 p.m.
- Charging fees not allowed for in the original contract
- Threatening to commit acts of violence against a consumer or their property
- Refusing to provide a consumer with verification of a debt it is attempting to collect
- Threatening to take action they have no legal right to take
- Making telephone calls without properly identifying themselves
- Falsely representing the amount or legal status of a debt
If you believe that C.Tech Collections, Inc., U S Collectech, or Collect Tech is using unfair, deceptive, or abusive practices in order to collect a debt from you, it is time to hold them accountable for their actions.

One of the complaints on the BBB details a negotiation over a bill and debt that Absolute Resolution Corp wanted to have paid off. It states that the person had paid the beginning payment of $250 as they had asked. In exchange, there was no information sent back in regards to evidence or papers to the complaint maker.
In another complaint lodged on the CFPB consumer complaint database, there has been listed harassment through phone calls and emails, as well as numerous complaints of improper information being made on the reports.
