If there are bills that you have gotten behind on, or if you are being accused of owing a debt that isn’t yours, you do have resources available to help you. Congress passed the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) in 1978 to stop the unscrupulous actions of debt collectors and to put an end to the harassment.
There are strict laws in place to protect consumers, but sometimes those laws are disregarded by third-party debt collectors such as NCB Management Services, Inc. If that is the case, you can take legal action against the debt collectors, but you should maintain supporting evidence.
What Is A Debt Validation Letter And Why Do You Need It?
