A collection agency collects debts owed by consumers. As a consumer you are responsible for paying your bills on time. This is a serious responsibility. It is important to understand that loans and bills must be repaid. Legal protections such as the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) exist to govern the actions of collection agencies.
