Your Rights Under the FDCPA

Not all debt collectors behave illegally, but enough of them are so aggressive and persistent that the Federal Trade Commission receives hundreds of complaints every year.

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) makes it illegal to use tactics like those below to collect a debt, so any agency that violates the law risks serious sanctions.

  • Calling you outside of the hours of 8:00 a.m. – 9:00 p.m. in your time zone
  • Using profane and obscene language
  • Failing or refusing to report a debt as disputed to the credit bureaus
  • Telling your friends, neighbors, and co-workers that you owe money
  • Contacting you after you have formally requested that all communications cease
  • Threatening legal actions they cannot take or have no intention of taking
