Are You Being Called By Plaza Recovery, Inc.?* Here’s What You Need to Know

Debt collectors are widely despised for reasons that many people feel are well-deserved. People often post reports of collection agencies using harassment or pressure tactics to scare consumers into paying, all the while feeling confident that no one will attempt to challenge them.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) was passed in September 1977 to prevent collection agencies from harassing consumers. Forty years later this consumer protection law still prohibits hostile and deceptive collection tactics like the following:

  • Ignoring a formal cease communications request
  • Calling at all hours of the day and night
  • Threatening to ruin your credit forever
  • Using profane and obscene language
  • Refusal to provide you with information about the debt
  • Contacting you if they are aware that you are being represented by an attorney
