Are you being called by REA Medical Consulting?* Here’s what you need to know.

Many people are being chased by collection agencies for overdue medical bills, credit card accounts, and student loans. The debt collectors working for them also seem to frequently forget that even though you may owe a debt, you still have rights as a consumer. It’s a mistake that can cost them big time.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

While debt collectors are legally allowed to contact you about a debt they are assigned to collect, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) makes it illegal for them to use unethical collection actions like the following:

  • Using profane and abusive language
  • Demanding outrageous ‘fees’ in addition to the original debt
  • Contacting you at work if you are not allowed to receive calls there
  • Threatening legal action they are not eligible to take or have no intention of taking
  • Saying that they will seize your property or garnish your wages
  • Refusing to provide proof that you owe a debt and they are authorized to collect it
