OREGON LEGISLATURE HOLDS HEARING ON DEBT BUYING BILL 

  • The state of Oregon’s House Committee On Business and Labor held a hearing yesterday to discuss House Bill 2356, which would, among other things, establish requirements under which debt buyers may bring legal action to collect debt and specifies the notice that debt buyers must give to debtors. If enacted, debt buyers would be forced to provide written notice to individuals 30 days prior to initiating any legal action.

  • Short-term gain, long-term loss. That’s the takeaway from the most recent numbers released by WebRecon. The good news is that the number of lawsuits filed in February alleging violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, and the Telephone Consumer Protection Act were lower than the number filed in January. But the number filed compared with the same month last year is significantly higher.
