The class action settlement resolves allegations that Midland Funding, Midland Credit Management and Encore Capital Group violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act by using an automatic telephone dialing system to call consumers in an effort to collect on an unpaid debt.

The plaintiffs claim they received numerous harassing phone calls by the creditors before filing this TCPA class action lawsuit.

Under the terms of the settlement, MCM agreed to pay $15 million to partially pay-off Class Members’ unpaid debts. Individuals with no debt received a cash payout.

Midland Credit Management denied the allegations but agreed to settle the class action to avoid further litigation. 

Class Members included all U.S. residents “who were called on a cellular telephone by Defendants or their subsidiaries, affiliates or related companies (other than calls made by Asset Acceptance LLC, Atlantic Credit & Finance, Inc. or Propel Financial Services) in connection with the collection of an alleged debt using a dialer or by artificial or prerecorded voice message without prior express consent during the period from November 2, 2006 through August 31, 2014.”

The deadline to file a claim for the MCM class action settlement passed on April 12, 2016.
