What Qualifies As Harassment By A Collection Agency?

Debt collectors cannot call you before 8 a.m. nor after 9 p.m., nor at your place of work. Debt collectors cannot use profanity or threatening language. Debt collectors cannot publish your name as a deadbeat in the newspaper. Debt collectors cannot contact others (employers, teachers, family) to pressure you into paying your debt. However, third parties can be contacted in order to find out your address or phone number.
