Can I pay my original creditor instead?

You may not actually owe debt collectors. They may just be doing the job of recovering the debt on behalf of the original creditor, bank or business to whom you owe the debt.

You may be wondering what your options are regarding debt repayment. Can you just bypass the debt collector and make payments directly to the original creditor since you procured the loan from them in the first place? No. It would be unwise to do so for two reasons.

First, once your account has been transferred to the office of a debt collection agency, they now have the full responsibility of recovering the debt on behalf of the original creditor. They enter into an agreement regarding what percentage of the money recovered belongs to the debt collection agency once they get you to settle your delinquent accounts and bypassing your debt collection agent to pay directly to your original creditor will be a breach of that contract. The agreement most creditors have with debt collectors is one that does not permit that you pay the creditor directly. You must pay through the debt collector. Furthermore, any monies paid to any organization that is not officially tasked with the duty of recovering your debt doesn’t count.

The second reason why it is unwise to try to bypass your debt collector and pay directly to the original lender is that it may be too late. Your debt may already have been sold to a third-party collection agency, meaning that you are now officially indebted to them and not your original creditor. Any payments you make to the original creditor in this situation doesn’t count towards servicing the debt. Debt collectors sometimes purchase debts from original creditors which means that they now completely own the debt and you have to pay them.

Can a debt collector garnish my wages?

Another question that usually plagues the minds of debtors is the question of whether or not debt collectors have the right to garnish their wages.

The simple answer is that in order for a debt collector to garnish your wages, they must have sued you to court, won the case and received permission from the court to garnish your wages. They do not reserve the authority to do so without a court-approved order, and if they are threatening you with wage garnishment over the phone or during their correspondence with you, they are in breach of the FDCPA laws and can be brought to justice.
