Phone 02

CHICAGO — A woman is suing Enhanced Recovery Company LLC, also known as ERC, and Enhanced Resource Center, a Florida-based collection agency, citing alleged misrepresentation in debt collection and violation of telephone harassment statutes.

Samar Kayyal filed a complaint on April 10 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against the defendant alleging it placed no less than 46 calls to the plaintiff's cellular telephone over a few months.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that, between December 2016 and March 2017, the collector allegedly kept calling the plaintiff despite her request for it to stop, and failed to identify itself as a debt collector.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks actual damages, punitive damages, court costs and any further relief this court grants. She is represented by Omar T. Sulaiman of Sulaiman Law Group Ltd. in Oak Brook.
