Debt Collectors Continuing Contact After Consumer Requests to Stop
Consumers report that debt collection agencies continue calling after being explicitly told to stop, a direct violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). Victims struggle to document these violations and get resolution, since collectors often deny wrongdoing or shift blame to third parties. This creates ongoing harassment and stress for people already dealing with debt-related disputes.
