Are You Being Called By H & A Credit Corporation?*


According to the Association of Credit and Collection Professionals, debt collectors make over a billion contacts with consumers every year. Unfortunately, many debt collectors are demanding and abusive when dealing with people who are unaware that such collection activities are illegal under federal law.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, or FDCPA, requires third-party debt collectors to be professional when communicating with consumers, so any abusive behavior is against the law. Below are some actions that can put a collection agency out of business.

  • Calling at all hours of the day and night
  • Demanding outrageous amounts that exceed the amount of the original debt
  • Discussing the debt with anyone except you, your spouse, or your attorney
  • Threatening legal action they cannot take or have no intention of taking
  • Using profane or obscene language
  • Failing or refusing to validate the debt

Alleged Violations Against H & A Credit Corporation

According to PACER, in or around 2009, H & A Credit Corporation began trying to collect a consumer debt from a Georgia consumer. The company allegedly left a series of voicemail messages that did not disclose that the caller was a debt collector, forcing him to discover the fact on his own.

Feeling harassed by H & A Credit Corporation,the consumer hired a consumer attorney and sued the company for allegedly violating the FDCPA by:

  • Using false, deceptive, and misleading means to collect a debt
  • Failing to identify itself as a debt collector in all communications

The matter was later dismissed.

If you win, you could potentially be awarded financial compensation. In practice, this means you could earn $1,000 per FDCPA violation plus associated costs and damages. When debt collectors mistreat you, you may receive compensation that exceeds the original debt.
