Encore Exchange

Who is Encore Exchange?

Encore Exchange, formerly known as CCi, is a debt collection agency based in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. As a debt collector, Encore Exchange’s role is to recover unpaid debts that original creditors have not been able to collect.

If you see Encore Exchange listed on your credit report, it indicates that a debt you owe has been transferred to them for collection.

Who does Encore Exchange collect for?

Encore Exchange focuses primarily on collecting debts for companies in the healthcare industry. This can include hospitals, private clinics, or other healthcare-related services.

These debts often arise from unpaid medical bills or unpaid insurance premiums. The goal of Encore Exchange is to recover these unpaid debts on behalf of their clients, the original creditors.

Is Encore Exchange legit or a scam?

Encore Exchange is a legitimate company. However, as part of their debt collection process, they may frequently attempt to contact debtors, potentially through phone calls, text messages, or emails.

How can I remove Encore Exchange from my credit report?

Encore Exchange collections can hurt your credit score and remain on your credit report for up to seven years regardless of whether you pay it or not. Unfortunately, paying the collection could even lower your credit score.

However, it is possible to remove a collection account from your credit history before seven years.

(While debt collectors may not want this information to be widely known, it’s your right to be informed.)

Professional credit repair services work with people who want to get their credit back on track.

In addition to collections, they can help you to challenge other inaccurate, unfair, or unsubstantiated information on your credit report. These items include inquiries, late payments, charge-offs, foreclosures, repossessions, bankruptcies, and more.

Should I contact or pay Encore Exchange?

It’s best to avoid speaking to a collection agency on the phone. And making payments on the debt will reset the clock. As a result, it could harm your credit rather than improve it. However, sometimes it’s better just to pay the collection account, especially if it’s new, and you’re certain that it’s legit.

The most effective way to deal with Encore Exchange is to work with a credit repair professional. They help remove millions of negative items every year from companies like Encore Exchange on behalf of their clients.

Will Encore Exchange sue me or garnish my wages?

Encore Exchange does have the legal right to sue you for non-payment of a debt. If they win a lawsuit against you, they could potentially garnish your wages, levy your bank account, or take other actions to recover the debt, depending on the laws of your specific jurisdiction.

However, it’s important to understand that taking legal action is generally considered a last resort for most debt collection agencies, as it can be costly and time-consuming. Prior to initiating a lawsuit, they usually prefer to work out a payment arrangement or settle the debt.

Encore Exchange Complaints

Most collection agencies have numerous complaints filed against them with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and the Better Business Bureau (BBB). Most consumer complaints are about inaccurate reporting, harassment, or failure to verify a debt. If you are being harassed by Encore Exchange, you should also consider filing a complaint.

You have many consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). These rights include the ability to dispute credit reporting errors and to be treated fairly and respectfully by debt collectors.

Your Rights When Dealing with Encore Exchange

Debt collectors must abide by state and federal laws in the United States. For example, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act prohibits a debt collector from using abusive, unfair, or deceptive practices.

• It is a violation of federal law for Encore Exchange to report inaccurate or incomplete information about you.
• You have a legal right to request debt validation on an alleged debt. Send the collection agency a debt validation letter. By law, they have 30 days to prove to you that the debt is really yours and the total amount is accurate.
• Encore Exchange may not threaten or harass you, call you repeatedly, swear at you, or publicly publish a list of debtors.
