Are You Being Called By Deville Asset Management?*


According to a 2014 study, 35% of adult Americans have at least one debt in collections. That’s nearly 77 million people who are dealing with collection agencies. This is one of the reasons why debt collector harassment is becoming such a growing concern.

How Your Rights Fall Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) was passed in 1977 to protect indebted consumers from having their lives ruined by third-party collection agencies. Its rules, which apply even today, penalize debt collectors who harass you in the following ways:

  • Saying that they will serve “court papers” on you at work
  • Trying to collect a debt that was included in an earlier bankruptcy
  • Ignoring a written cease communication request
  • Cursing and threatening you
  • Claiming to be federal agents or police officers
  • Reporting false information to the credit bureaus

“Hey, this is Courtney Rose. (Consumer name), can you call me back today at Deville? 469-293-4962.”
