Is RGS Financial a scam?

They’re legit. RGS Financial is a legitimate collection agency that offers professional services in two main areas: BPO services and ARM services.

RGS acts as a third-party debt collector for the automobile, health care, retail, credit card, student loan, medical, and utilities industries.

Like many contemporary collection agencies, RGS Financial’s website appears to be intended less for the average consumer and more for the large multinational corporation seeking an effective solution for past due accounts. They boast state-of-the-art security for all their transactions and a client list including corporations such as Mercedes-Benz, Nordstrom, USAA, and Bank of the West. Although RGS Financial is a member of the Association of Credit and Collection Professional (ACA); the ACA Ethics Committee; and ACA of Texas, their website does not mention any consumer protection laws such as the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), or the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). Their web-based contact and online payment forms do not inform consumers of their rights under these laws.

Can RGS Financial Sue Me or Garnish My Wages?

It is illegal for a debt collector to make empty threats to sue you or garnish your wages. It is also unlikely RGSwould sue you for a debt you may not owe or they cannot validate. However, debt collection agencies are known to have summoned debtors to court and garnish wages after a default judgement. Contacting an attorney BEFORE this could possibly happen would be a smart move. We’ve helped thousands of consumers fight back against unscrupulous debt collection harassers.

Ansolutely. Here are some Sample Complaints

Most of the complaints against RGS result from alleged violations of the FCRA and/or FDCPA such as failure to verify debts. In 2017, there were 12 complaints alleging RGS had contacted consumers for unverified debts. Complaints that were accepted as resolved included a consumer who was receiving calls to an incorrectly assigned telephone number; a debt resulting from identity theft that appeared on a credit report; a delinquency that appeared on a credit report before the consumer had been notified of the debt; and a delinquency resulting from an error in bank account identification information. Among closed complaints still awaiting final approval by the consumer are several resulting from debts that consumers have objected to as unverified or fraudulent. Many of these complaints originate with cable companies; some of them are from banks or lending companies. Generally, RGS addresses complaints with fairly detailed documentation.

Press Releases of Lawsuits Brought On By Lemberg Law Against RGS Financial

March 17, 2017. On behalf of our client, Lemberg Law recently filed a complaint in U.S. District Court, Southern District of Florida. The case, againstRGS Financial, charges the debt collection agency with violating federal law and asks for $1,000 in statutory damages under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act plus other relief.

I’m DEF the CPA, consumers have a right to ask that collection calls stop. Doing so doesn’t erase the debt, but it does get rid of the debt collection phone calls. Our client says that RGS Financial debt collectors start calling her. She wanted to call to stop, so she email a letter to RGS Financial telling them to stop calling me immediately RGS Financial continue to harass our client with debt collection calls.

This lawsuit charges that RGS Financial violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) by engaging in harassing behavior and by contacting our client after having received a cease and desist letter.

RGS Financial Calling You?

Federal laws protect you. The Fair Debt Collections Practices Act (FDCPA) regulates the behavior of collection agencies by prohibiting actions such as the use of abusive or threatening language; harassment; or the use of false or misleading information to collect a debt. The FCRA regulates how collection agencies and creditors report delinquent debts to credit reporting agencies. Additional consumer protection laws include the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and the Consumer Financial Protection Act (CFPA).

But here’s the rub: If you want to enforce your rights, or recover money for violations — you need to sue. These laws provide individuals like you with a means to seek monetary damages in court. For example, the FDCPA allows consumers who have been violated to recover damages of up to $1,000, plus attorney fees and court costs.
