When Rucker tendered to Citicorp the total for back payments that had been specified by Citicorp, he was notified for the first time that the premium rate stated to him as an annual rate was instead a monthly rate of premium and that an additional amount of $4,300 was past due.

 Maguire v. Citicorp. Retail Services Inc.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Citicorp had not consistently used the name Debtor Assistance from the beginning of the credit relationship so that the plaintiff could have known "at all times that [she was] dealing with the same entity." Dickenson, 770 F. Supp.
Citicorp's principal argument is that because the Debtor Assistance letter noted that Debtor Assistance was a "unit of CRS," Maguire must have known that the Debtor Assistance letter was from Citicorp.
Citicorp also argues that it is not subject to the FDCPA because its use of the name "Debtor Assistance" in the circumstances of this case does not "indicate that a third person is collecting or attempting to collect such debts." 15 U.S.C. § 1692a(6).
