Can PMT Solutions Sue Me or Garnish My Wages?

It is illegal for a debt collector to make empty threats to sue you or garnish your wages. It is also unlikely PMT would sue you for a debt you may not owe or they cannot validate. However, debt collection agencies are known to have summoned debtors to court and garnish wages after a default judgement. Contacting an attorney BEFORE this could possibly happen would be a smart move. We’ve helped thousands of consumers fight back against unscrupulous debt collection harassers.

Can you help me file a No Fee Lawsuit against PMT Solutions?

Absolutely.  You can sue a debt collector. Here is a Sample Case Complaint:

Complaints against PMT Solutions, LLC cite problems resulting from disputes about the validity of debts and allegations of rude and abusive collection staff. In June 2019, a complainant stated that PMT had been trying to contact him regarding a utility bill with the City of Seattle. According to the complainant, PMT was trying to collect a debt that Seattle municipal utility company had told him was “an open account that… should not be in collections.” The complainant stated that he had “attempted multiple times over the phone…to convey that PMT needs to call their client…and straighten their issues out.” In addition, he “told them repeatedly to cease and desist all communications to him,” but PMT allegedly said “they will just keep calling unless he spends… time, energy, and money to write them a letter of dispute and start jumping through their hoops.” He also said that “every phone rep that he talked to… just followed company protocol,” stating that he “owes the bill and has to pay.” The complainant “told them he doesn’t work for them or the City of Seattle, …so it’s their obligation to contact the people that hired them.” However, PMT “refused to do that.” The complainant stated that PMT displays “lousy, sloppy, lazy customer service from a City of Seattle large account vendor,” and that they consider the “thought of taking 45 seconds to verify accuracy of information to be out of the question” is ridiculous. The complainant stated he had “contacted the City of Seattle and will be submitting a public information request for all account information pertaining to… PMT,… including, but not limited to, the vetting and hiring process of this City vendor, performance reviews, and financial summaries, including fee schedules and contracts.” In response, PMT placed the blame on the complainant, stated that they had escalated his complaint, and then closed the account and returned it to the City of Seattle.

In May 2018, a complainant stated that he had “received a past due invoice from the original creditor and… contacted them to pay the outstanding balance.” According to the complainant, he “was told his bill had been transferred to” PMT Solutions. He “contacted PMT about settling the debt…and asked to have the fees removed.” He said that “the original bill was due to a new car he had purchased and the initial tolls were not applied to his toll tag when he purchased it.” He said he had “let the customer service rep know that he had not received any other communication” regarding the bill. After verifying the address, he told the PMT representative again that he “did not receive anything in the mail, but she was not listening to anything he was saying…Her attitude escalated and the complainant’s did as well.” When he asked “to speak to a supervisor,” he was “told there was not one there.” He asked to speak to someone different because he “did not appreciate her tone, and she told him to call back. He explained he was not interested in calling back…and asked to speak with a supervisor again.” She asked for his name and number. He “did not trust she would relay the message, so he asked again to be transferred to a supervisor’s voice mail. She did finally transfer him… after she inserted her attitude by stating, ‘WOW, HOLD ON!’” The complainant left a message but at the time of the complaint had “not heard back from anyone.” He said he had expressed his willingness to settle the debt, “but he was not willing to pay a 730% mark-up of the bill.” He said that the “lack of respect and courtesy the account rep displayed is unacceptable.”

PMT Solutions Calling You?

Federal laws protect you. The Fair Debt Collections Practices Act (FDCPA) regulates the behavior of collection agencies by prohibiting actions such as the use of abusive or threatening language; harassment; or the use of false or misleading information to collect a debt. The FCRA regulates how collection agencies and creditors report delinquent debts to credit reporting agencies. Additional consumer protection laws include the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and the Consumer Financial Protection Act (CFPA).

But here’s the rub: If you want to enforce your rights, or recover money for violations — you need to sue. These laws provide individuals like you with a means to seek monetary damages in court. For example, the FDCPA allows consumers who have been violated to recover damages of up to $1,000, plus attorney fees and court costs.

What Our Clients are Saying

“I used to get up to 15 calls a week from several collection agencies. It got so bad I felt like I should just get a new phone number to make it quit. Happily, I discovered Lemberg Law. They immediately put an end to the calls. Now, when my phone rings I do not dread it.”
