Collection Agencies?
Collection agencies, their practices, and the rights of both their clients and debtors are often very misunderstood. When a collection agency begins the process of collecting against a debt, it is important that the debtor understand their rights, what is expected of them, as well as how the collection process works. Third party collection agencies are a party that have no real interest in the debt, the creditor, or the debtor. The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act highlights the practices and methods that a third party collection agency may or may not use to secure payment against the debt. Collection agencies are allowed to attempt to make phone contact with a debtor between 7am and 9pm local time. A collection agent cannot reveal the nature of their call to anyone who identifies that they are not the debtor. If asked, however, they must provide the company’s name. Many companies will have their agents abbreviate the company name over the phone to help protect privacy. Once in phone contact with the debtor, the collection agent may make payment arrangements against the debt or they may demand payment in full. A third party collection agent cannot speak to the client directly and may speak only to the debtor, their spouse, parent if the debtor is a minor, or power of attorney. If a debtor does not wish for the collection company to continue calling their home phone, cellular phone, or work telephone, they will need to provide a request in writing to the collection agency asking for the calls to that number or combination of numbers to cease. A collection agent is not allowed to use profane or abusive language when speaking to a debtor and must always identify the nature of the call. If a debtor has already filed or plans to file for bankruptcy and the stated debt will be covered in the proceedings, they should notify the collection agent. If the debtor has an attorney for the matter, the collection agent may ask questions to gather information about how to contact the attorney in the matter.
