Are you being called by Mohr Collection Services, Inc.?* Here’s what you need to know.

The phone rings, and it’s a number you don’t recognize, but you answer all the same. Sure enough, it’s a debt collector demanding that you immediately pay an overdue credit card bill. The problem is that you can’t afford to, but the collector doesn’t care and begins to verbally abuse you. If this happens to you, don’t tolerate mistreatment. Fight back instead.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, or FDCPA, protected indebted consumers by mandating that third-party debt collectors may not use methods like those below to collect debt payments from you.

  • Yelling, swearing, and using language meant to intimidate you
  • Demanding amounts inflated by ‘service charges’ and other miscellaneous fees
  • Telling you that you will arrested or your wages garnished if you don’t pay
  • Calling at inconvenient times, usually before 8:00 a.m. and after 9:00 p.m
  • Calling you at work after they’ve been advised that such calls are not allowed
  • Keep contacting you even after you dispute a debt or demand its validation

John C. Long III vs. Mohr Collection Services, Inc. d/b/a MCS, Inc.*

According to PACER, in July 2009 North Carolina resident John C. Long III received a collection letter from Mohr Collection Services, Inc. regarding an alleged medical debt.

Feeling harassed by Mohr Collection Services, Inc., he hired a consumer attorney and sued the company for allegedly violating the FDCPA in the following ways:
