Taking my own advice Part Two

By Cathy Moran

The return receipt on my “do not contact” letter to ATT arrived at my office showing receipt on July 6th.

Between July 7 and July 10, we got seven calls at home about the disputed account; on July 12th, we got a call from NCO who announce that the account has been turned over to them for collection.

As of yet, I have no contact information for NCO. When I get it, I will repeat my “do not contact” letter, invoking my rights to be free of collection calls under FDCPA and California’s Rosenthal Act.

They’ll get an invitation to call my lawyers, Moran Law Group, to discuss resolution of the dispute.

Check back for updates. The beginning of the tale.

Read the conclusion.
