When Debt Collectors Call
Learn about your rights concerning debt collectors and what to do if they contact you.
When companies decide they no longer
want to try to collect overdue debts,
they may assign or sell those debts to
third-party debt collectors. There are
laws about how debt collectors can act,
what they can say, and how they can
treat you. The Fair Debt Collections
Practices Act provides you with rights
when a debt collector is trying to get
you to pay a debt.
A debt collector can’t:
Call repeatedly to harass you or
abuse you
Use abusive or obscene language
Threaten you by saying they’ll take
action they can’t or don’t intend to
take
Call you without telling you who they
are
Lie to or mislead you
Publish your name for not paying a
debt
You may want to discuss your debt issue
with a lawyer. Visit
consumerfinance.gov/askcfpb/1433 to
find a lawyer in your area.
What to do
Review the questions to ask if a debt
collector calls.
Fill out the template to request more
information from the debt collector.
Carefully review and check the box
next to the information you’re
requesting.
If the debt isn’t yours, fill out the
second letter template to dispute the
debt.
A step further
Find other letter templates for
contacting debt collectors at
consumerfinance.gov/consumer-
tools/debt-collection.
