If you are curious to learn what consumers have said about their experience with Alorica Inc. on a debt collection matter, then take a moment to read these reviews:
When you receive a debt collection notice from Alorica, it’s time to brush up on your knowledge of consumer rights.
The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) provides you with certain privileges regarding debt collection. In addition, under the FDCPA, debt collectors must refrain from actions that are deceptive, misleading, abusive, or harassing.
Your first order of action is to ask Alorica to validate your debt. That doesn’t mean you call a customer service rep to strike up a friendly conversation. Instead, you’ll need to draft a formal Debt Validation Letter.
Under the FDCPA, you have 30 days after you initially receive a communication from the collection agency to request debt validation. Once Alorica gets your letter, it must prove that you owe the debt or cease its collection efforts.
In your debt validation letter, you’ll want to ask for the following:
A Debt Validation Letter requires Alorica to prove it owns the debt. You’ll also learn how long you have until the debt exceeds the statute of limitations.
If Alorica doesn’t respond to your request, then it’s case closed: Alorica can no longer chase you or continue its collection efforts.
Need drafting your Debt Validation Letter? SoloSuit’s got you covered.
Once Alorica gets hold of your account, it won’t just send you letters; it will also call you. Sometimes, it may text you, too.
The FDCPA prohibits debt collectors from harassing or abusing you in their communications. A few things to look out for include:
While some of these examples are a little over the top, they’re there to inform you that a debt collector cannot push you around. If you feel you’re being harassed, you probably are. File a complaint immediately with the FTC and the Better Business Bureau.
You’ll know that Alorica is taking things to the next level when you receive a Court Summons in the mail. Attached to your Summons will be a copy of Alorica’s Complaint. The Complaint will list the amount you owe and any additional pertinent information about your account.
Read the Complaint carefully to see if there are any errors that you can use to your benefit. For instance, if the amount that Alorica is suing you for doesn’t match your records, that’s important. You can use it as a defense in the case.
Next, you’ll want to write an Answer and submit it to the court and Alorica. An Answer is your formal response to the debt collector’s Complaint. It will include any defenses you have to the lawsuit.
Even if you don’t have a solid defense, you’ll still want to draft an Answer. Your Answer will prevent Alorica from obtaining a default judgment against you. Instead, the judge will listen to your testimony before deciding on the claim’s outcome.
Respond to a debt lawsuit against Alorica in minutes with Solo.
After you file your Answer, you have two options to resolve the debt before your court date: repaying or settling the debt.
Repaying the debt stops the lawsuit since there’s no longer anything to sue you for. However, if you don’t have all the money to repay the debt, you can offer Alorica a settlement instead.
Let’s consider an example.
Example: Fred has an old credit card debt of $3,000 that Alorica is suing him for. Fred uses SoloSuit to file an Answer alleging that the amount of the lawsuit doesn’t agree with his records. Next, he uses SoloSettle to negotiate a settlement with Alorica, offering $1,500 in exchange for dropping the lawsuit and releasing him from the remainder of the debt. Alorica agrees, and SoloSettle transfers Fred’s settlement money to Alorica, helping him keep his financial information private and secure. Alorica drops the case and reports Fred’s debt as settled to the credit bureaus.
SoloSettle, powered by SoloSuit, can help you settle your debts once and for all. As a tech-based approach to debt settlement, you can use SoloSettle to settle debt on your own by using its software to send and receive settlement offers until you reach an agreement with Alorica Inc.
Once an agreement is reached, SoloSettle helps you manage the settlement documentation that should be filed into your debt lawsuit case.
Plus, you won’t have to worry about your financial information being compromised, because SoloSettle will transfer your payment to the collector on your behalf, keeping your financial information private and safe.
