Defendant(s)

DCQ, LLC Oxygen Recovery Group

Fair Debt Collection Practices Act

State(s)

New York

A proposed class action has been filed against DCQ, LLC (which does business as Oxygen Recovery Group) by a New York woman who alleges she was unlawfully mistreated in the defendant’s attempts to collect a debt. The plaintiff says she received a debt collection letter from the company that stated an amount she supposedly owed, “other fees due,” and “interest.” According to the complaint, the “other fees” section was left blank and the “interest” line listed “$0.00.” The suit argues that the letter can be misread to mean that the defendant is permitted to add these additional charges in the future when it “has no legal basis” to demand interest or other fees.
