Have you ever wondered how debt collectors can be so callous and uncaring? Have you ever tried to talk to a collector like a normal person, only to be insulted or put down? In the article found at the link below, a reporter went undercover at a collection company to find out how they operate. Collectors are trained to do whatever it takes to get you to pay – humiliate you, insult you, give you bad financial advice, imply that they will have you or a family member arrested… The list goes on and on.
If you find yourself being hounded by debt collectors, remember that you have rights when it comes to debt collection laws. A federal law known as the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act puts limits on what debt collectors can and cannot do when attempting to collect a debt from you.
