Are you being bullied by debt collectors to pay credit card bills that aren’t yours or you can’t afford to repay? They may tell you that they have the right to call until you pay, but the truth is that you have the right to order them to stop contacting you and sue them if they persist.
Your Rights Under the FDCPA
The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, or FDCPA, protects you from being harassed or deceived because you owe money. If a third-party collection agency imposes abuses like the following on you, they can be fined and even lose their license.
- Using an autodialer to leave a series of pre-recorded messages
- Threatening legal actions that they have no intention of taking
- Calling before 8:00 a.m. and after 9:00 p.m. in the consumer’s time zone
- Telling you that you have committed a crime by not paying the debt
- Using foul language
- Claiming to be law enforcement officers to scare you into paying
