How many times a day can a creditor call you before if is phone harassment?
This is a very broad question. It usually depends on the state and previous case law in that state. 5 times usually isn't harassment, 20 times is. And then were the calls just no answer or was there a live contact or a voicemail left? Because then the # goes down significantly. Experience: I own a collection agency.

How many times can a creditor call you in one day?
The FDCPA allows creditors to contact debtors as many times as needed as long as it cannot be defined as harassment. For example, a creditor/collector could probably call a dozen times within the 8:00 am to 9:00 pm time allotment without being in violation. However, they cannot call continually, for example every hour, every half hour, etc. Persons subjected to creditor calls should bear in mind that they have no legal obligation to speak with the caller.

Is it considered harassment if Citibank calls 10-20 times a day and on weekends regarding your 20-year-old who incurred debt while not living at home even though she's at home now?
Unfortunately, no (not in legal terms anyway). Creditors will call all day in order to get their money. She needs to be responsible and make a payment. Keeping the account active and working it out with the creditors will stop the calls. * Although the FDCPA does not specify the exact terms of what can be constituted as harassment, the extent noted by the questioner would be considered as such. The debtor has the legal option of informing the creditor/collector by written correspondence that she wishes to cease all contact with them. Once the calling party receives the correspondence they must stop calling or contacting the debtor except for informing the debtor that "cure and remand" procedures are being implemented or other changes to the account has occurred. There is no law that says a debtor or any member of the household must accept the calls or speak to a collector or creditor who calls. The owner of the home also has the option of filing a complaint with the justice division of their state's attorney general.
