Collection Agency - NCO in Ontario and Ontario Loans

Postby Johnny » Thu Mar 13, 2008 9:08 pm

Those of you who are dealing with NCO Financial Services out of Ontario regarding your Ontario student loan, please be on the alert for collectors calling and being overly aggressive in their efforts to recover debt. There have been cases arising whereas collectors from this firm are advising Ontario student loan borrowers that they do not have to deal with anyone that you may have helping you cope with the harsh and often abusive collection methods. If you are being mistreated or abused by this group, we invite you to contact us.

The Ontario govenrment has apparently implemented a new policy for borrowers authorizing others to retrieve information, and they have a special consent document that their assigned collection agencies must issue you. If you do experience difficulty obtaining one from this agency, you may contact us and we will help you get this particular form without further hinderance. As you know, collection agencies are under tremendous pressure as of recently because of the controversial issues surrounding their practices. It is important that student loan borrowers protect themselves at all times when dealing with these organizations.

To reach us, you can call toll free 866-239-7889.

Johnny - I have some ontarion student loans, not exactly sure how much, circa 10,000 as I have been outside of Canada for 15 years. How best to figure out which collection agency might have my mandate and how best to reach them? Thanks in advance. C
