Are You Being Called by AP Account Services, LLC?* Here’s What You Need to Know

Stop the
Harassment

You have legal rights. We can help.

 


Is a collection agency harassing you day and night? No matter how much money you may owe, federal law prohibits such conduct. If telling the collector to stop calling you doesn’t work, you can report them to the Federal Trade Commission and even file a lawsuit against them for violating your rights.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, or FDCPA, regulates the professional conduct of third-party debt collectors. If a company tries to deceive or threaten you into paying by applying any of the measures below, see a consumer lawyer about filing an FDCPA lawsuit.

  • Contacting you after you are represented by an attorney
  • Saying that they have court papers to serve on you when they don’t
  • Telling you that they can have you sent to jail or evicted if you don’t pay
  • Chasing you for a debt that isn’t yours
  • Cursing and yelling at you over the phone
  • Pretending to be police officers or federal agents
