Cavalry SPV has a documented record of FDCPA violations. If any of these occur during your Alaska collection dispute, document them and file immediately.
Steps customized for Alaska law, phone & telecom debt rules, and Cavalry SPV's collection patterns.
Common FDCPA violations: calling outside 8am-9pm hours, using profane language, threatening arrest, misrepresenting the debt amount, contacting your employer after being told to stop, or continuing collection after a written dispute.
Collect: call logs with dates and times, voicemail recordings, letters received, certified mail tracking numbers and green cards, and any written communication. The more documentation, the stronger your complaint.
Go to consumerfinance.gov/complaint. Choose 'Debt collection' as the category. Be specific about dates and violations. CFPB forwards complaints to the collector who must respond within 15 days. Collectors take CFPB complaints seriously.
Many states have their own debt collection laws with additional protections. Your state AG can take enforcement action. File at your state's AG consumer protection division website.
FDCPA allows you to sue in federal court within one year of the violation for $1,000 per violation plus actual damages plus attorney fees. Many consumer rights attorneys take these on contingency — you pay nothing upfront.
These strategies apply to phone & telecom debt specifically. Telecom debt from cell phone, internet, and cable bills. The FCC regulates billing practices. Early termination fees and equipment charges are the most common disputes.
Alaska Unfair Trade Practices Act governs debt collection in Alaska in addition to the federal FDCPA. To file a complaint: Department of Law.
