Are You Being Called By Diversified Services Group?*


Being chased for money you don’t have is right up there when it comes to life’s most stressful experiences. A lot of collection agencies refuse to take no for an answer and will do nearly anything to bully or coerce you into paying, hoping you won’t realize that their antics violate your rights as a consumer.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, or FDCPA, is a consumer protection law that regulates the actions of third-party collection agencies and prohibits them from taking things to extremes to settle a debt. Collection actions like those below are illegal and can subject a company to fines and even license revocation.

  • Shouting and using profanities
  • Demanding amounts that exceed the original debt total
  • Contacting your at work after learning that the employer does not permit such calls
  • Threatening legal actions they cannot take, such as having your property seized and wages garnished
  • Calling you before 8:00 a.m. and after 9:00 p.m. in your time zone
  • Trying to collect an amount that is not authorized by law or the original creditor agreement
