What Are RMCB Collections?

Retrieval-Masters Creditors Bureau (RMCB), also known as American Medical Collection Agency (AMCA), is a debt collection agency based in Elmsford, New York. RMCB operates as a recovery agency for consumer, commercial, and health care collections.

When you forget to pay a bill or default a loan, your original creditor may turn the account over to a debt collector like RMCB to recoup their losses. Whether or not you pay the debt, these charges will appear on your credit report as a collections account and can remain on your report for seven years. You can contact RMCB through the following:

If you have an RMCB Collections account, it's vital to take action to clean up your credit report as soon as possible to avoid further damage to your credit score.

What Should I Look For on My RMCB Credit Dispute?

If you have an RMCB collections account on your credit report, it's important to understand what this means and how it will affect your credit score. First, you should check your credit report to see exactly which accounts are being reported as delinquent.

You can get a free copy of your credit report once every 12 months from each of the three credit bureaus - Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion. Once you have your credit report, you'll want to dispute any erroneous information. This includes any accounts that are not yours or reported as delinquent when you have already paid the debt. Ensure the following details match the RMCB collections account and your credit report:

• Personal information
• Account information
• Account collections dates
• An original creditor by name and address
• Inquiries
• Account collections dates
• Public records
• The total amount of debt outstanding

In the event, there is a mismatch of the information, you need to dispute the account with the credit bureau and RMCB.

Effective Strategies on Successfully Disputing Your Credit Report

Since your credit score is a huge determinant of your overall financial health, it's essential to take steps to dispute your credit report if you have any incorrect entries. Here are some effective strategies on how to successfully dispute your credit report:

1. Submit a letter to the credit bureau disputing the information
2. Contact the original creditor that reported you to the credit bureau denying the information
3. Send a pay for delete letter to your creditor
4. Send a Goodwill letter to your creditor

If you are committed elsewhere or are after a super-easy and convenient way to remove collections from your credit report, you can leverage DoNotPay's credit repair services. Removing a collections account on your credit report will help improve your credit score, which in turn can help you get approved for a mortgage, car loan, or credit card.

Send Demand Letters To for an Unresolved Credit Report Dispute

If the credit bureau or RMCB fails to resolve your dispute, you have a right under the Fair Credit Reporting Act to send demand letters to them for any incorrect information on your credit report. You can escalate the issue to the CFPB and send demand letters to RMCB or the credit bureau under Section 1681s of the FCRA.

Alternatively, you can use DoNotPay to send demand letters to them in small claims court. DoNotPay will provide you with the necessary documents and back you up throughout the entire process, so you can focus on recovering your financial health and fixing your credit score.

How to Clean Up Your Credit Report on Your Own

A spontaneous credit report is critical when you are looking to buy a home, car, or get a credit card. If you have delinquent payments on your account with RMCB Collections, it's essential to clean up your credit report as soon as possible. You can take the following steps to clean up your credit report on your own:

1. Request your free annual credit report from the three credit bureaus and review it for any incorrect information
2. Validate and verify all the information on your credit report
3. Dispute any incorrect information with the credit bureau and RMCB by mail, phone, or online
4. Allow for 30 days to have the credit bureau or RMCB investigate your claim.
5. If the credit bureau or RMCB fails to resolve the dispute, you can send demand letters to them under the FCRA.
