Encore Capital Group, Inc. Company Profile
Credit junkies, beware: Encore Capital Group has your number. The firm and its Midland Credit Management subsidiary purchase at a discount charged-off receivables that credit card issuers and other lenders have given up on, then does its best to collect the money via phone, direct mail, third-party collection agencies, and legal action. Utilizing a "friendly, but firm approach" its account managers evaluate customers' ability to pay, then develop tailored payment programs; the company also uses skip-tracers to track down stubborn debtors. Subsidiary Ascension Capital Group provides bankruptcy services to the finance industry.
