They are free to call until the debt is paid or legal arrangements are made unless you express the die sire to not have them call in writing. There are also hours in which they can not call. Refusing to accept their call can accelerate the legal process.
Their job is to get you to pay what you promised to, not keep you happy.
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.
They should not be calling repeatedly during the day, nor at unreasonable times. If they keep calling in one single day, then it's a form of creditor harassment, you should keep notes of the time of each call and who you spoke to, and complain to the creditor or a professional body.
By the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act, debt collectors may call once per day and either speak to the debtor or leave a simple message. If the debtor requests or gives permission for the collector to call additional times, then more calls are permitted. Anything more is harassment.
Yes, they can call you as many times they want if are not responding them.
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.
