Carter Business Service Debt Collection Harassment

Are you tired of Carter Business Service debt collectors calling you? You are not alone. Many people are going through the exact same thing. Carter Business Service Debt collectors may be calling you concerning a debt they claim you owe. You are under no obligation to pay a debt just because Carter Business Service or any other debt collector says so.

You need to understand that collection agencies are 3rd party debt collectors and you do not owe them anything.

When they call you, do not be quick to make any payment to them or even admit to owing the debt. You need to assess the situation first, and be sure what exactly their talking about.

Debt collectors get paid when they successfully recover a debt. So don’t be surprised when you see the kind of effort put into Carter Business Service debt collection process.

Debt collectors will employ any and every tactic at their disposal (even at the expense of your peace of mind) to get you to pay debts. This is why federal laws had to be put in place to control debt collection processes.

Any Carter Business Service debt collection method that involves harassment and threats is already going against the FDCPA and you can choose to sue them for Carter Business Service phone harassment. 

Carter Business Service phone harassment is simply when you are harassed with phone calls or being threatened over the phone during Carter Business Service debt collection process. This is a violation of the FDCPA.

According to the FDCPA, Carter Business Service debt collection should be void of all forms of harassment, deceit and threat. So, Carter Business Service phone harassment is not the only way your rights can be violated.

If you are lied to about a debt during Carter Business Service debt collection, that is also a violation of your rights.

Getting a debt collector off your credit report

You can actually get a debt collector off your credit report without paying them

When you don’t pay a debt collector, they will likely take you off their list, sell your debt to another collection agency, and report you to the credit bureaus.

Then the next company that bought the debt will start another round of calls to you. And it’s just not going to end.

These collection agencies may then begin to show on your credit report but taking these 3 steps will help you get them off.

  1. Make a debt validation request by writing to the the debt collector and asking them for bona fide proof that you owe them a debt (not that you may owe a debt to another company). You need them to provide evidence of a contract that you signed and or knowingly entered into by your own volition. They do not have that and can never produce it. Keep copies of whatever they respond to you with.
  2. Write to the original company that claims you owe them money. Ask them for proof that they didn’t sell your “debt” to the debt collector who contacted you and haven’t been paid the “debt” that they claim you owe them. You may additionally ask them to prove they haven’t been payed for your non-payment by an insurance policy.
  3. Write to whichever credit reporting agencies they filed a report with and tell to remove that from your report because the company cannot prove you owe the debt. This may take a few tries, but it should work.
