Most Asked Questions:
Can debt collectors demand payment or take legal
action during the thirty (30) day period for disputing a debt?
YES! Section 809(b)
permits collectors to demand payment or take legal action
during the thirty-day period for disputing a debt when the consumer has
not notified the collection agency in writing that the debt is
disputed.
That's why it's so important to dispute invalid debts in
writing the same day you're contacted! Learn more about your rights

Stopping Collector Harassment begins with learning
about your rights under the The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA).
Also known as the fair debt act or FDCPA, this federal law was enacted to
protect us from collector abuse...but it only works if we know how to
use it properly!
The FDCPA clearly defines the rules that bill collectors
and even collection attorneys must obey when collecting debts. Many states have
their own laws similar to the FDCPA and some of these laws also define
collection rules for creditors collecting their own debts.
This site is for educational purposes with the goal
of helping you learn and understand your consumer rights so the next time bill
collectors call, you'll know what to do AND what to say to stop their
harassment!
With over 100 pages on this site, I've tried to provide
in-depth answers to many questions. However, if after looking through the site,
you still cannot find the answers you're looking for, or if you would like to
see some specific information or features added to the site, feel free to
