What to do if a creditor still says that you owe them after a cancellation of debt?
Ask the creditor to send you written verification of the debt including all of their documents after incurring the debt. If the cancellation of the debt is not indicated in their documents, then dispute the debt by providing your written notification of cancellation of the debt to the creditor and if unsuccessful, then dispute the debt with the credit bureaus who will initiate an investigation with the creditor and the credit bureau will usually repond to you in 30 days. If no response from the creditor then it will usually be deleted from your credit report. If the collection harassment continues then ignore it realizing that probably no legal action will be taken against you or you can contact an attorney to contact the creditor. Either pay the debt or file bankruptcy.

What is credit card debt cancellation?
Debt cancellation is a type of credit insurance service provided by the credit card company usually for a monthly fee. In most cases, the card company will wave the outstanding balance on your card in case of your death or long term illness. The fee charged is a fixed percentage of your monthly outstanding balance. Debt cancellation is usually sold in conjunction with debt suspension and is termed DCDS. Debt suspension is a similar type of service, but instead of canceling the outstanding debt, the monthly payments may be suspended for a short period of time such as one year in the case of involuntary unemployment or some other type of unexpected life events.

How much of a car repossession is taxable?
One consideration would be that cancellation of a debt becomes income, and is taxable. But a repo isn't a cancellation of debt, it is a payment by selling the asset. However, as you can find in many discussions here, if your repossessed and the sale of the property does not return enough funds to fully satisfy the debt, the deficiency is normally not forgiven. Instead you remain owing that amount and the lender will presumably continue to try and collect it. Hence, the sale as an exchange of value isn't a cancellation of debt, and there likely isn't any even if there is a deficiency. No tax consequence.
Can you be a collections agent if you are in collections?
Yes. Companies that you apply to for a collections position that are managing a debt you owe will sometimes refuse your employment as a 'conflict of interest'. Still others may obligate you to repay the debt to eliminate the conflict. Some may even hire you based on a payroll deduction payment plan if unable to resolve the debt immediately. Agencies that are not managing a debt you owe will never know you are in collections unless you tell them and would care less even if they did know.
When can a debt be turned over to collections?
