Are you being called by Oshkosh Collection & Recovery?* Here’s what you need to know

Debt collectors make millions of connections with indebted consumers every year, and not all of them are civil or professional. If you are faced with a collection agency that disregards your rights while demanding your money, there are ways that you can fight back.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) is a consumer protection law that regulates what third-party debt collectors may say and do when trying to collect a debt from you. It prohibits abusive tactics like those below.

  • Using profane or obscene language
  • Threatening legal actions that they have no intention of taking
  • Telling you that you can be arrested for not paying your debts
  • Reporting false information to the credit bureaus
  • Calling you at inconvenient times and places, such as before 8:00 a.m. and after 9:00 p.m. in your time zone
  • Calling you at work after you tell them that you can’t take personal calls there
