This includes leaving telephone messages with neighbors or other 3rd parties when the debt collector knows the consumer's name and telephone number and could have contacted the consumer directly.

Although they are legally allowed to leave you a voicemail, it can only be done on a private cell phone where they are sure it will not be heard by a third party. Do not stand for debt collectors that violate the FDCPA. Always save your voicemail messages and any proof that may be usable in court.

As of Nov. 30, 2021, debt collectors have new options for how they may communicate with you about debts they're trying to collect. Now they can text you.

Collectors can only contact you between 8 a.m. and 9 p.m. in your local time. They have to identify themselves as debt collectors and they can't reveal your debts to any third party except your spouse or attorney.

Debt Collectors Can't Call You Repeatedly to Harass You This means that while the FDCPA doesn't place a specific limit on the number of calls debt collectors can make, it prohibits them from calling you multiple times just to harass you. (15 U.S. Code §? 1692d).

Generally, a debt collector can't discuss your debt with anyone other than: You. Your spouse. Your parents (if you are a minor) Your guardian, executor, or administrator. Your attorney, if you are represented with respect to the debt.

If you continue to ignore communicating with the debt collector, they will likely file a collections lawsuit against you in court. If you are served with a lawsuit and ignore this court filing, the debt collection company will then be able to get a default judgment against you.
