Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC v. Angela Nuncio

Filed: Mar 12, 2026
Type: CS

What's This Case About?

Let’s cut straight to the drama: Angela Nuncio owes $6,672.68 on a Home Depot credit card she stopped paying—and now a debt collection agency named Portfolio Recovery Associates is dragging her into Oklahoma’s Pottawatomie County District Court to get it back. That’s not the wild part. The wild part? This isn’t even the company she originally borrowed from. Her debt has been bought, sold, and reassigned like a haunted baseball card, and now she’s being sued by a third-party debt collector who purchased her account after it went bad. Welcome to the American credit system, where your past due balance is someone else’s payday.

So who are these people? On one side, we’ve got Angela Nuncio, a resident of Shawnee, Oklahoma, born in 1993, who opened a Home Depot Consumer Credit Card back in April 2022. Nothing suspicious there—maybe she needed a new water heater, or a fancy drill, or just really loves laminate flooring. She used the card like most of us do: making purchases, paying some, missing others, and eventually falling behind. The last time she made a payment was April 6, 2023—$94.49, to be exact. The last time she used the card? May 5, 2023, for a $43.98 purchase. After that? Radio silence. On November 10, 2023, the account was officially “charged off,” meaning the original lender, Citibank (doing business as Citi Retail Services), gave up and wrote it off as a loss. But here’s the twist: they didn’t just toss it in the trash. They bundled it up with hundreds of other deadbeat accounts and sold the whole batch to Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC—a professional debt collector that makes its living buying up defaulted accounts and trying to squeeze blood from credit card stones.

And now, Portfolio Recovery Associates is the plaintiff. They’re not a bank. They’re not Home Depot. They’re a debt buyer—a company that purchases old debts for pennies on the dollar and then sues to collect the full amount. In this case, they paid $6,672.68 for the right to chase Angela down in court. Wait—they paid the full amount? Nope. The filing doesn’t say how much they actually paid, but industry standard is 3 to 10 cents on the dollar. So they likely paid somewhere between $200 and $600 for this account. If they win? They pocket the difference. That’s not just collecting debt—that’s profiteering off financial desperation.

So what happened? According to the petition, Angela opened the account, agreed to the terms (which include a whopping 25.99% APR on purchases), and then failed to make the required monthly payments. By the time the account was charged off, the balance had ballooned to $6,672.68. That includes $4,805.71 in principal, $1,586.97 in pre-charge-off interest, and $280 in fees. The final statement, dated November 9, 2023, shows a “New Balance” of $6,672.68, with a minimum payment due of $1,669.41. Just look at that number—one-sixty-nine. That’s not a minimum payment. That’s a mortgage down payment in rural Oklahoma. The statement even includes a terrifying warning: if you only pay the minimum every month, it’ll take 18 years to pay off the balance—and you’ll end up shelling out a grand total of $16,179 in interest and fees. Let that sink in: pay $6,600 now, or pay $16,000 over nearly two decades. The math is brutal, and the system is designed to keep you trapped.

Now, why are we in court? Portfolio Recovery Associates is suing for breach of contract—a legal way of saying, “You signed up for this card, you agreed to pay, and you didn’t.” They’re not accusing Angela of fraud. They’re not claiming she stole the card or racked up charges while fleeing the country. They’re saying she simply failed to live up to her end of the credit agreement. And under the law, that’s enough. The contract is real. The debt is documented. The account was legally transferred. All the boxes are checked. This isn’t a “he said, she said” case—it’s a paperwork war, and the plaintiff has brought artillery: the original statement, the bill of sale from Citibank, and the full card agreement, which runs longer than a Tolstoy novel and is written in the kind of legalese that makes your eyes glaze over after three sentences.

What do they want? $6,672.68. Plus court costs. Plus fees. Plus interest, if allowed. Is that a lot? In the grand scheme of civil lawsuits, no—it’s not a million-dollar defamation case or a corporate embezzlement scandal. But for an individual? Yes. Six and a half thousand dollars is a used car. It’s a year of rent. It’s a full college semester. It’s a lot when you’re already in the hole. And here’s the kicker: if Portfolio Recovery wins, they could get a judgment that allows them to garnish Angela’s wages, freeze her bank account, or place a lien on her property. This isn’t just about getting paid—it’s about enforcement. And once a judgment is entered, it can follow her for decades in Oklahoma.

Now, here’s our take: the most absurd part of this case isn’t that someone got sued for an unpaid credit card. That happens every day. The absurdity lies in the machine behind it. Angela didn’t default because she was malicious or greedy. She defaulted because life happened—maybe a job loss, a medical bill, a car repair, or just the slow creep of minimum payments that never seem to make a dent. And instead of helping her, the system responded by selling her debt to a company that sees her not as a person, but as a line item on a spreadsheet. Portfolio Recovery didn’t lend her a dime. They didn’t offer her a payment plan. They didn’t call to ask if she was okay. They bought her debt for scraps and are now suing for the full amount, with legal representation, in a court that treats this like routine paperwork.

We’re not rooting for debt evasion. We’re not saying people should get to ignore their bills. But we are saying that a system where a company can profit off someone’s misfortune—by buying their debt cheap and suing for full value—feels less like justice and more like legalized predation. And let’s be real: if Angela had the $6,672.68, she probably would’ve paid it already. The fact that she didn’t suggests she can’t—which makes this lawsuit less about accountability and more about squeezing what’s left from someone already down.

So what happens next? Angela has 30 days to respond. She can fight it, settle it, or ignore it and risk a default judgment. Either way, this case is a perfect snapshot of how credit works in America: you borrow, you struggle, you fall behind, and suddenly, your debt isn’t just yours anymore. It’s someone else’s business opportunity. And in Pottawatomie County, that business is open for litigation.

Otherwise, interest will accrue from your statement closing date until we receive your payment. The "How to Avoid Paying Interest on Purchases" section on page 2 has more information.

How to Avoid Paying Interest on Purchases. Your payment due date is at least 25 days after the close of each billing cycle. We will not charge you any interest on purchases if you pay your New Balance by the payment due date each month. This is called a grace period on purchases. To get a grace period on purchases you must pay the New Balance by the payment due date every billing cycle. If you do not, you will not get a grace period until you pay the New Balance for two billing cycles in a row. If you have a balance subject to a deferred interest promotion and that promotion does not expire before the payment due date, that balance (an "excluded balance") is excluded from the amount you must pay in full to get a grace period on a purchase balance other than an excluded balance. However, you must still pay any separately required payment on the excluded promotional balance. In billing cycles in which payments are allocated to deferred interest balances first, the deferred interest balance will be reduced before any other balance on the account. However, you will continue to get a grace period on purchases, other than an excluded balance so long as you pay the New Balance less any excluded balance, plus any separately required payment on an excluded balance, in full by the payment due date each billing cycle. In addition, certain promotional offers may take away the grace period on purchases. Other promotional offers not described above may also allow you to have a grace period on purchases without having to pay all or a portion of the promotional balance by the payment due date. If either is the case, the promotional offer will describe what happens. How We Calculate Your Balance Subject to Interest Rate. For each balance, the letter following the Annual Percentage Rate in the Interest Charge Calculation section on the front of the statement indicates the method we use to calculate interest charges. For Methods C, H and M, we use a daily balance method (including current transactions) to calculate interest charges. For Methods I and L, we use an average daily balance method (excluding current transactions) to calculate interest charges. For Method K, we use an average daily balance method (excluding current transactions) to calculate interest charges. To find out more information about the balance computation method that applies to your account and how the resulting interest charges were determined, contact us at Customer Service number on the front. Other Account and Payment Information. Payment Amount. You may pay all or part of your account balance at any time. However, you must pay, by the payment due date, at least the minimum payment due.

You may call us, but if you do we are not required to investigate any potential errors and you may have to pay the amount in question.

But, if we determine that we made a mistake, you will not have to pay the amount in question or any interest or other fees related to that amount. • While you do not have to pay the amount in question, you are responsible for paying any other remaining amounts due on your account. • We can apply any unpaid amount against your credit limit. Your Rights if You Are Dissatisfied With Your Credit Card Purchases. If you are dissatisfied with the goods or services that you have purchased with your credit card, and you have tried in good faith to correct the problem with the merchant, you may have the right not to pay the remaining amount due on the purchase. To use this right, all of the following must be true: 1. The purchase must have been made in your home state or within 100 miles of your current mailing address, and the purchase price must have been more than $50. (Note: Neither of these are necessary if your purchase was based on an advertisement we mailed to you, or if we own the company that sold you the goods or services.) 2. You must have used your credit card for the purchase. Purchases made with cash advance from an ATM or with a check that accesses your credit card account do not qualify. 3. You must not yet have fully paid for the purchase. If all of the criteria above are met and you are still dissatisfied with the purchase, contact us at the address for billing errors and customer service inquiries shown on Page 1 of your statement. While we investigate, the same rules apply to the disputed amount as discussed above. After we finish our investigation, we will tell you our decision. At that point, if we think you owe an amount and you do not pay, we may report you as delinquent. Account: **** **** **** 8932 TRANSACTIONS (cont.)

You will continue New Balance by the payment due date every billing cycle. If you do not, you will not get a grace period until you pay the New Balance for two billing cycles in a row. If you have a balance subject to a deferred interest promotion and that promotion does not expire before the payment due date, that balance (an "excluded balance") is excluded from the amount you must pay in full to get a grace period on a purchase balance other than an excluded balance. However, you must still pay any separately required payment on the excluded promotional balance. In billing cycles in which payments are allocated to deferred interest balances first, the deferred interest balance will be reduced before any other balance on the account. However, you will continue to get a grace period on purchases, other than an excluded balance so long as you pay the New Balance less any excluded balance, plus any separately required payment on an excluded balance, in full by the payment due date each billing cycle. In addition, certain promotional offers may take away the grace period on purchases. Other promotional offers not described above may also allow you to have a grace period on purchases without having to pay all or a portion of the promotional balance by the payment due date. If either is the case, the promotional offer will describe what happens. Calculation of Interest Charges – Daily Balance Method (including Current Transactions). We calculate interest charges each billing cycle. To do this: • We start with each of your different balances. These balances include, for example, regular purchases and different promotional balances. (When we calculate interest charges, we treat each deferred interest transaction separately even if it has the same terms as another deferred interest transaction.) • We calculate the daily balance for each of your different balances. To get a daily balance, we start with the balance as of the end of the previous day. We add any interest charge on the previous day’s balance. (This results in daily compounding of interest charges.) We add any new charges. We then subtract any new credits or payments. • We multiply each daily balance by the daily periodic rate that applies to it. We do this for each day in the billing cycle. This gives us the daily interest charges for each of your different balances. • We add up all the daily interest charges. The sum is the total interest charge for the billing cycle. Payments Minimum Payment Due. You must pay at least the Minimum Payment Due by the payment due date each billing cycle. The sooner you pay the New Balance, the less you will pay in interest charges. The Fact Sheet shows the minimum payment calculation method that applies to your account. Application of Payments. Payments in excess of the Minimum Payment Due are applied in accordance with law. This means that we will generally apply payments in excess of the Minimum Payment Due to higher APR balances first. However, excess payments received before a deferred interest promotion expires are applied to the deferred interest promotional balance first in the last two billing cycles of the promotional period. And, if the expiration date of a deferred interest promotion is before the payment due date in the billing cycle in which the deferred interest promotion expires, excess payments received before the deferred interest promotion expires are applied to the deferred interest promotional balance first in the last three billing cycles of the promotional period. Payments equal to or less than the Minimum Payment Due and credits are applied at our discretion a way that is most favorable or convenient for us. This may include applying such payments and credits to lower APR balances first. Payment Instructions. We credit your payments in accordance with our payment instructions on the billing statement. You must pay us in U.S. dollars. To do so, you must use a check, similar instrument, or electronic debit that is drawn on and honored by a bank in the U.S. Do not send cash. We can accept late or partial payments, or payments that reflect "paid in full" or other restrictive endorsements, without losing our rights. We also reserve the right to accept payments made in foreign currency and instruments drawn on funds on deposit outside the U.S. If we do, we select the currency conversion rate. We will then credit your account in U.S. dollars after deducting any costs incurred in processing your payment. Or we may bill you separately for these costs. Optional Pay by Phone Service. You may use our optional Pay by Phone Service to make your payment by phone. To do so, call us to request the service. You agree to pay us the Pay by Phone fee shown in the Pay by Phone section on the back of the billing statement when a representative of ours helps expedite your payment. Our representatives are trained to tell you this amount when you use this service. Default You default under this Agreement if you fail to pay the minimum Payment Due by its due date; go over your credit limit; pay by a check or similar instrument that is not honored or that we must return because it cannot be processed; pay by electronic debit that is returned unpaid; file for bankruptcy; or fail to comply with the terms of this Agreement. If you default, we may close your account and, to the extent permitted by law, demand immediate payment of the total balance. Credit Reporting We may report information about your account to credit bureaus. Late payments, missed payments, or other defaults on your account may be reflected in your credit report. We may report account information in your name and the names of authorized users. We may also obtain follow-up credit reports on you. If you think we reported incorrect information to a credit bureau, write us at the Customer Service address on the billing statement. We will investigate the matter. We will then tell you if we agree or disagree with you. If we agree with you, we will contact each credit bureau to which we reported and request a correction. If we disagree with you, we will tell you that. Information Sharing You authorize us to share information about you as permitted by law. This includes information we get from you and others.

ARBITRATION REPLACES THE RIGHT TO GO TO COURT, HAVE A JURY TRIAL OR INITIATE OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. IN ARBITRATION, DISPUTES ARE RESOLVED BY AN ARBITRATOR, NOT A JUDGE OR JURY.

We may also ask you to confirm that you received no benefit from those charges Except as stated below, all Claims are subject to arbitration, no matter what legal theory they're based on or what remedy (damages, or injunctive or declaratory relief) they seek, including Claims based on contract, tort (including intentional tort), fraud, agency, your or our negligence, statutory or regulatory provisions, or any other sources of law; Claims made as counterclaims, cross-claims, third-party claims, interpleaders or otherwise; Claims made regarding past, present, or future conduct; and Claims by notifying us in writing or over the phone.

Arbitration limits • Individual Claims filed in a small claims court are not subject to arbitration, as long as the matter stays in small claims court. • We won't initiate arbitration to collect a debt from you unless you choose to arbitrate or assert a Claim against us. If you assert a Claim against us, we can choose to arbitrate, including actions to collect a debt from you. You may arbitrate on an individual basis Claims brought against you, including Claims to collect a debt. • Claims brought as part of a class action, private attorney general or other representative action can be arbitrated only on an individual basis. The arbitrator has no authority to arbitrate any claim on a class or representative basis and may award relief only on an individual basis. If arbitration is chosen by any party, neither you nor we may pursue a Claim as part of a class action or other representative action. Claims of 2 or more persons may not be combined in the same arbitration. However, applicants' co-applicants, authorized users on a single account and/or related accounts, or corporate affiliates are here considered as one person. How arbitration works • Arbitration shall be conducted by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") according to this arbitration provision and the applicable AAA arbitration rules in effect when the claim is filed ("AAA Rules"), except where those rules conflict with this arbitration provision. You can obtain copies of the AAA Rules at the AAA's website (www.adr.org) or by calling 800-778-7879. You or we may choose to have a hearing, appear at any hearing by phone or other electronic means, and/or be represented by counsel. Any in-person hearing will be held in the same city as the U.S. District Court closest to your billing address. • Arbitration may be requested any time, even where there is a pending law suit, unless a trial has begun or a final judgment entered. Neither you nor we waive the right to arbitrate by filing or serving a complaint, answer, counterclaim, motion, or discovery in a court law suit. To choose arbitration, a party may file a motion to compel arbitration in a pending matter and/or commence arbitration by submitting the required AAA forms and requisite filing fees to the AAA. • The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator in accord with this arbitration provision and the AAA Rules, which may limit discovery. The arbitrator shall not apply any federal or state rules of civil procedure for discovery, but the arbitrator shall honor claims of privilege recognized at law and shall take reasonable steps to protect account information and other confidential information of either party if requested to do so. The arbitrator shall apply applicable substantive law consistent with the FAA and applicable statute of limitations, and may award damages or other relief under applicable law. Survival and Severability of Terms This arbitration provision shall survive changes in this Agreement and termination of the account or the relationship between you and us, including the bankruptcy of any party and any sale of your account, or entity. If any part of this arbitration provision is deemed invalid or unenforceable, the other terms shall remain in force, except that there can be no arbitration of a class or representative Claim. This arbitration provision may not be amended, severed or waived, except as provided in this Agreement or in a written agreement between you and us. The final award • Any award by an arbitrator is final unless a party appeals it in writing to the AAA within 30 days of notice of the award. The arbitration appeal shall be determined by a panel of 3 arbitrators. The panel will consider all facts and legal issues anew based on the same evidence presented in the prior arbitration, and will make decisions based on a majority vote. Arbitration fees for the arbitration appeal shall be allocated according to the applicable AAA Rules. An award by a panel on appeal is final. A final award is subject to judicial review as provided by applicable law. Paying for arbitration fees • We will pay your share of the arbitration fee for an arbitration of Claims of $75,000 or less if they are unrelated to debt collection. Otherwise, you are liable to us for our legal costs if we refer collection of your account to a lawyer who is not our salaried employee. These costs may include recover our arbitration fees, unless the arbitrator decides Your Claim was frivolous. All parties are responsible for their own attorney's fees, expert fees and any other expenses, unless the arbitrator awards such fees or expenses to you or us based on applicable law.

In your letter, give us the following information: • Account Information: Your name and account number. • Dollar amount: The dollar amount of the suspected error. • Description of problem: If you think there is an error on your bill, describe what you believe is wrong and why you believe it is a mistake. You must contact us: • Within 60 days after the error appeared on your statement. • At least 3 business days before an automated payment is scheduled, if you want to stop payment on the amount you think is wrong. You may call us, but if you do we are not required to investigate any potential errors and you may have to pay the amount in question. What Will Happen After We Receive Your Letter When we receive your letter, we must do two things: 1. Within 30 days of receiving your letter, we must tell you that we received your letter. We will also tell you if we have already corrected the error. 2. Within 90 days of receiving your letter, we must either correct the error or explain to you why we believe the bill is correct. While we investigate whether or not there has been an error: • We cannot try to collect the amount in question, or report you as delinquent on that amount. • The charge in question may remain on your statement, and we may continue to charge you interest on that amount. • While you do not have to pay the amount in question, you are responsible for the remainder of your balance. • We can apply any unpaid amount against your credit limit. After we finish our investigation, one of two things will happen: • If we made a mistake: You will not have to pay the amount in question or any interest or other fees related to that amount. • If we do not believe there was a mistake: • You will have to pay the amount in question, along with applicable interest and fees. We will send you a statement of the amount you owe and the date payment is due. We may then report you as delinquent if you do not pay the amount we think you owe. If you receive our explanation but still believe your bill is wrong, you must write to us within 10 days telling us that you still refuse to pay. If you do so, we cannot report you as delinquent without also reporting that you are questioning your bill. We must tell you the name of anyone to whom we reported you as delinquent, and we must let those organizations know when the matter has been settled between us. If we do not follow all of the rules above, you do not have to pay the first $50 of the amount you question even if your bill is correct. letter. We will also tell you if we have already have tried in good faith to correct the problem with the merchant, you may have the right not to pay the remaining amount due on the purchase. To use this right, all of the following must be true: 1. The purchase must have been made in your home state or within 100 miles of your current mailing address, and the purchase price must have been more than $50. (Note: Neither of these are necessary if your purchase was based on an advertisement emailed to you, or if we own the company that sold you the goods or services.) 2. You must have used your credit card for the purchase. Purchases made with cash advances from an ATM or with a check that accesses your credit card account do not qualify. 3. You must not yet have fully paid for the purchase. If all of the criteria above are met and you are still dissatisfied with the purchase, contact us in writing at the address for billing inquiries and correspondence shown on the front of your statement.

A daily periodic rate is the APR divided by 365. Effect of APR Increases. If an APR increases, interest charges increase. Your minimum payment may increase as well. Daily Balance (including current transactions). We calculate the daily balance for each of your different balances. To get a daily balance, we take the balance at the end of the previous day, add the interest on the previous day’s balance and new charges, and subtract new credits or payments. We figure the interest charge by multiplying the daily balance by its daily periodic rate each day in the billing cycle. We then add up all the daily interest charges and the total is the interest charge for the billing cycle. Variable Terms Information Minimum Payment Due. You must pay at least the Minimum Payment Due by the payment due date each billing cycle. The sooner you pay the New Balance, the less you will pay in interest charges. We calculate the Minimum Payment Due as follows. We begin with any past due amount. We add any amount specified in a promotional offer. We add any amount required by the Promotion Calculation. We also add the largest of the following: • The Calculated New Balance if it is less than $29; • $29 if the Calculated New Balance is at least $29; or • 1% of the Calculated New Balance plus the amount of your billed interest charges on that balance, any minimum interest charge allocated to that balance, and any applicable late fee. (The result is rounded up to the nearest dollar.) However, we subtract interest charges that accrued during prior billing cycles on a deferred interest balance that ended during the billing cycle covered by the statement. The Calculated New Balance equals the New Balance on the billing statement less balances subject to the Promotion Calculation and less any balances subject to either of two types of promotional terms. The first type are terms that do not require a minimum payment. The second type are terms that require an additional amount as part of the Minimum Payment Due. If you have a deferred interest transaction balance subject to the Promotion Calculation, the Promotion Calculation will equal 1% of this balance during the promotion period. (The result is rounded up to the nearest cent.) After the promotion period, any such remaining promotional balance will be included in the Calculated New Balance. The Promotion Calculation will apply if, based on the amount of the transaction as shown on the first statement that displays the transaction and the dollar amount in the Minimum Payment Due calculation in effect at the time of the transaction, we determined that paying such dollar amount each billing cycle would result in repayment of the promotional balance before the end of the promotion period. The Minimum Payment Due may reflect adjustments to the New Balance. The Minimum Payment Due is never more than the Calculated New Balance plus two amounts. The first is any amount required by a promotional offer. The second is any amount required by the Promotion Calculation.
