Is West Asset Management Calling?

Is West Asset Management (WAM) calling you? Debt collectors employ various tactics in their debt pursuits. Some of these tactics are lawful while some are unlawful and unfair to the consumer. Most times, debt collectors are only interested and concerned about getting money from you and not your comfort or peace, so, they do not mind making numerous calls to your phone and intimidating you with abusive words, abusive language, or even rude and abusive language. They can even go as far as calling and harassing your friends and family. If you are experiencing any of the above, it is not peculiar to you. Many people have and are experiencing the same dilemma. Consumer complaints about such practices are widespread and have led to regulatory scrutiny.

Although debt collectors are legal agencies who have the job of pursuing debts, they are not untouchable or unstoppable. When a debt collector goes too far, they can be stopped. Debt collectors who harass and threaten debtors are violating the FDCPA and thus should not be tolerated.

Furthermore, if a debt collector lies to you about anything, be it their identity, the amount of the debt, or the interest rate, it is also a violation of the laws laid down for the protection of your consumer rights. Violating the FDCPA has implications and we can help you bring an end to the harassment you are experiencing. If you want to stop the harassment, you can do so by writing to the collection agency, including sending a cease and desist letter. Consumers can issue consumers written demands to stop calling, and the agency must comply. You must be aware that debt collectors are not allowed to call you after you send such a letter. This is your legal right to demand that debt collectors stop calling you. Call us now on 877-700-5790.

Introduction To Debt Collection

Debt collection is the process by which a debt collector or debt collection agency, such as West Asset Management, attempts to recover unpaid debts from consumers. These agencies use a variety of methods to collect debts, including phone calls, letters, and emails. While many debt collectors follow fair debt collection practices, some may resort to unfair debt collection tactics, such as harassment, threats, or making false statements about the debt. These actions are not only unethical but may also violate the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) and other federal laws designed to protect consumers. If you are receiving calls from a collection agency like West Asset, it’s important to know that you have rights and that there are laws in place to ensure you are treated fairly throughout the debt collection process. Understanding your rights can help you recognize when a debt collector crosses the line and what steps you can take to protect yourself from unlawful collection practices.

What Times Are Debt Collectors Not Allowed To Call Me?

Although debt collectors are allowed to call you to discuss your debts, they have restrictions. Some debt collectors go too far with their calls, making countless annoying phone calls to debtors. People have complained of getting called by debt collectors late at night, or in the very early hours of the morning.

Desperate debt collectors usually do not respect people’s boundaries, privacy, and peace of mind. So, they go as far as making calls at odd and uncomfortable times. This makes it really important for debtors to be aware of their rights and know when the law restricts debt collectors from calling them.

Being ignorant of your rights will make you subject to many unfair treatments from debt collectors. The FDCPA laid down certain rules governing the time debt collectors can call. Some of them are discussed in the paragraphs below.

Debt collectors are not allowed to call you at odd hours of the day: Specifically, the FDCPA says that before 8 am and after 9 pm, no debt collector is allowed to call you. The only exception to this is if you gave your consent and asked the debt collector to call you at these times. These restrictions also apply to calls made to your cell phone, including robocalls and pre-recorded messages.

Debt collectors are not allowed to call you during work hours or at your workplace: The FDCPA prohibits debt collectors from calling you at work if you have made it clear to them that it isn’t allowed. Any debt collector who calls your workplace after you have told them not to is violating the FDCPA.

If debt collection calls are becoming distressing and stressful to you, you do not have to put up with them. You have the option of writing to the collection agency, asking them not to call you anymore and except it is to notify you of impending legal action.

You must be aware that debt collectors are not allowed to call you after you send such a letter.

Impact on Credit Score

When a debt is turned over to a debt collection agency, it can have a serious impact on your credit score. Debt collectors often report unpaid debts to the credit bureaus, which can result in negative information appearing on your credit report and lowering your score. This can make it more difficult to obtain loans, credit cards, or even rent an apartment in the future. In addition to the financial impact, repeated phone calls and letters from debt collectors can add stress and anxiety, making it harder to manage your finances. However, consumers have the right to dispute any errors or inaccuracies on their credit reports. Working with a law firm can help you resolve debt collection issues, stop repeated calls, and take steps to repair your credit. If you believe a collection agency has reported false information or is harassing you, you have legal options to protect your credit and your peace of mind.
