Results

Collection Agency Accused of Operating Without a License

The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR) alleged that a collection agency was performing unauthorized debt collection without a state license. The collection agency applied for dual licensure in both the City of Chicago and State of Illinois. The City of Chicago issued a city collection agency license, but the IDFPR license application was delayed for a year. We demonstrated that the agency did not engage in any debt collection activity during the period that it did not have a state license; thus, it did not engage in any unlicensed practice even though it had been issued a city collection agency license. The IDFPR closed its investigation and issued a state license to the collection agency.
