Credit Card Collection agencies are third party debt collectors that are attempting to collect a debt from a consumer on behalf of the company they represent.

What practices are off limits to debt collectors?

Prior to the passage of the FDCPA in 1977, some debt collectors often used methods the act now prohibits. Today, debt collectors cannot use threats or profane language, publish debtors names on a “bad debt” list, lie in an effort to collect a debt, threaten arrest or legal action when arrest or legal action was never intended to be taken or cannot legally be taken, or give false information .
