Is Firstpoint Collection Resources a Scam?

Firstpoint Collection Resources is a legitimate debt collection agency. However, they’ve faced a lot of scrutiny due to the number of negative reviews and complaints levied against them in recent years.

The Better Business Bureau has given them a C rating with over 80 complaints filed in the last year, WalletHub rates them 3/5 stars based on six written reviews, and Google rates them 2.2/5 stars with twelve written reviews - all of which may be cause for concern.

When dealing with debt collection agencies, remember that you have rights and options. Check your credit report carefully for inaccuracies, and contact Firstpoint directly to get more clarity about the debt. If you don’t want to deal with them directly, let us do it for you. Contact us today. 

How Can I Contact Firstpoint Collection Resources? 

If you've been contacted by Firstpoint Collection Resources regarding an overdue personal loan but have never actually had one, it's essential to get to the bottom of it as soon as possible. 

You can start by carefully reviewing your credit report and then reaching out directly to them using one of the following contact methods:

  • Phone number: 1-800-288-7408
  • Website: www.firstpointresources.com
  • Payment Portal: www.Firstpointpay.com
  • Mailing Address: 225 Commerce Pl. Greensboro, NC 27401

Be aware that debt collectors may try to get you to accept responsibility for a debt or agree to a debt settlement plan without validating the debt first. For this reason and others, it’s recommended that you consult with a professional before making an agreement with a Firstpoint Collection.

Why is Firstpoint Collection Resources Calling Me?

If you've been receiving phone calls from Firstpoint Collection Resources, it's likely due to one of the following reasons but not limited to:

  • Unpaid Debt

They may be trying to collect a legit debt from you, ranging from credit card bills to medical bills.

  • Identity Theft

You may have received calls about debts that are not even yours if you are a victim of identity theft. Ensure you dispute these debts and have them removed from your credit report.

  • Mistaken Identity

It's possible the debt collectors have contacted the wrong person due to common names, so make sure to clarify this.

  • Outdated Information

If you have moved without updating creditors with your new address, Firstpoint Collection Resources could be calling with outdated information.

  • Old Information

Any debt past its statute of limitations cannot be sued for or reported on your credit report. If it hasn't automatically fallen off, either dispute it, or consult an attorney who specializes in consumer law to assert your rights.

No matter the reason for the call, remember that collection agencies like Firstpoint Collection Resources must abide by rules set by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Contact us today if you believe your consumer rights have been violated.
