QUESTION
Are credit card companies obligated by law to send a statement to the consumer?
Asked on Aug 04th, 2014 on Consumer Law - Florida
More details to this question:
In July 2014 I received a letter from a collection agency indicating, with late charges on a $77.00 purchase using Dillards credit card, I owe over $300.00. I haven't received a Dillards statement since August 2013. I thought my card had a 0 balance.

Depends. A lot of people are agreeing to "paperless" ie internet billing. The bigger question is, statement aside, if its in collections that means that Dillards typically tried calling and writing to you for several months with no response. Something is obviously amiss here.
