Major Cases Filed Against Allied Interstate, Inc.

Cash v. Allied Interstate, Inc., 2005 WL 1186189 (S.D. Tex. May 18, 2005)

Collection notice stating that the debt collector may send the debt to an attorney, recommend a law suit, or send the debt back to the original creditor was not found to be misleading, deceptive, or a violation of the FDCPA. These actions were legal possibilities.

A debt collection notice sent to the consumer stating that the consumer only had 10 days to pay was considered to be threatening. After ten days, no actual action was taken, so this notice was false and misleading.

Stebbins v. Allied Account Servs., 1991 U.S. Dist. LEXIS

21778 (D. Conn. Sept. 9, 1991). Collector violated the FDCPA by sending a notice to the consumer stating that the consumer should call the debt collector.

This contradicts the fact that the consumer is required to dispute and request validation in writing.

Acheampongtieku v. Allied Interstate, Inc., 2005 WL

2036153 (S.D.N.Y. Aug. 24, 2005). Debt collector did not violate the FDCPA because they gave the consumer an opportunity to dispute the debt before they reported it to the credit bureaus.
