Nearly one-third of Americans have, at one point, had an average of $5,000 in collections. If the collection agency you are dealing with intrudes on your private time and is verbally abusive when you refuse their demands, they’re breaking the law and you can take appropriate action.
Your Rights Under the FDCPA
The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, or FDCPA, limits what third-party debt collectors can say or do when communicating with consumers. Using collection methods like the following violate the FDCPA and can result in fines and even license revocation.
- Using profane and obscene language
- Pretending to be attorneys or police officers
- Telling you that you can be arrested and sent to jail if you don’t pay
- Failing or refusing to identify themselves as debt collectors trying to collect a debt
- Discussing the debt with uninvolved third parties like your friends, family and neighbors
- Calling at unreasonable and inconvenient hours
