Why is Bread Financial calling me when I do not have an account with them?
If Bread Financial is calling you and you do not have an account with them, this may be a wrong debtor claim. A wrong debtor claim is when a debt collector or bank calls a consumer looking for someone else. The first instinct is to ignore the phone calls, however in most instances the calls will continue until you speak with the agency and place them on notice that they have the wrong phone number and to stop calling. If the calls continue after you tell the agency they have the wrong number, you may have a claim under the FDCPA & TCPA. Here is what you should do.
1. Keep Records
Every time you get a debt collection call for someone else, make sure to note the number the person called from, the name of the collection agency and the person’s name. While the caller isn’t required to give you their name, they do have to give you the name of their employer under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. It’s also a good idea to write down the date and time of the call, so you have a record of the frequency if you need to pursue legal action for harassment.
2. Request That the Collector Not Call Again
While this may seem obvious, many people just hang up on debt collectors once they find out who’s calling. But simply asking them not to call again can go a long way. Make sure to tell them that they have the wrong number. If they call again after that, let them know if they continue calling, you’ll file a report with the Federal Trade Commission.
