Who Is 866-828-1166?
866-828-1166 is associated with Medco, a debt collection agency that has reported a collection account on your credit report.
This situation typically indicates two scenarios:
- They have acquired your debt from the original creditor and are contacting you to recover it.
- They are acting as agents for another company, earning a significant commission to collect on their behalf, though they do not own the debt themselves.
The consequence of this is detrimental: a collections account now appears on your credit report, potentially lowering your credit score and reducing your chances of obtaining credit approvals with favorable interest rates. This single creditor could hinder your ability to achieve milestones such as purchasing a home, buying a car, securing business loans, finding employment, or renting an apartment.
