Are You Being Called By Windham Professionals, Inc.?*


When we experience long-term financial setbacks like job loss or illness, it can become impossible to pay your debts. Once a certain number of payments are missed, debt collectors will start calling, and many of them can use aggressive and intrusive tactics to get our money. It’s important to remember, though, that you have rights that these callers ignore at their own risk.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) was passed in 1977 to protect consumers from being harassed by third-party debt collectors. It prohibits abusive and deceptive actions like the following:

  • Calling you before 8:00 a.m. and after 9:00 p.m. in the your time zone
  • Discussing the debt with your coworkers, neighbors, and friends
  • Threatening legal action that they are not in a position to take or have no intention of taking
  • Threatening to have you arrested for nonpayment of the debt
  • Leaving vague messages that do not identify them as debt collectors
  • Using profane and abusive language
