A$$et won't sign for DV letter!


Recommended Posts

I sent ASSet Acceptance LLC in Warren, MI two DV letters regarding two old collection accounts from 2002. They have refused to sign for the letters (sent Certified, Return Receipt Requested), according to the little beige card I received in my mailbox. I have now copied that card, and sent ASSet copies of the letters by regular mail. Any advice on how to proceed now? Thanks for any suggestions you may have for me. :confused:

Refusal to accept letters from consumers is a violation of the FDCPA because it deprives the consumer of their right to validate. It's no different than if they refused to give you a mailing address.

Keep all that info about them refusing to sign for the letters. It will be useful later.

had the same thing happen with these scoundrals....sent it via UPS ground letter and guess what...they signed for it. Instead of having the CMRRR number on the letter inside, I had the UPS tracking label number.

Although it cost a couple dollors more than the CMRRR, I got what I wanted and needed.

If you get back the original, save it unopened.

Asset is PRESUMED to know the contents of whatever you sent and they refused.

Next, send the same thing CMRRR to their registered agent. This is the person who is REQUIRED to accept communications, including service of process.

(And yes, I've had THAT person refuse mail too, but not from Asset. Bastard put a smiley on the envelope, too.)

There was a bunch of case law (and statutory law) brought up when I had an RA refuse an ITS (but he didn't know it was an ITS). Honestly, I never kept track of it, and that case did settle.

(And, unfortunately, that was on AoC, so not so easy to search.)
