Do you have a sense of fear every single time the phone rings because you know it could very well be a debt collector on the other end of the line? Do you dread going to the mailbox every day because you know that it’s going to be filled with letters from a collection agent or multiple collection agents? Are you afraid to speak with family, friends, and neighbors because you know that the collection agency called them about your debt and now you are completely embarrassed? Is the stress of these situations becoming too hard for you to handle on a daily basis?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, chances are high that you are experiencing debt harassment. The thing is debt harassment across the USA has gotten out of control. To add insult to injury, it is not permitted by the federal government, but since most consumers don’t know this fact, a great deal of debt collectors continue to harass people. The bottom line is that you don’t need to put up with this type of behavior any longer. What these dishonest debt collectors are doing is not only mean, it’s also illegal. So you didn’t pay some bills.
It doesn’t mean that you deserve to be treated like a sack of potatoes. It also doesn’t mean that the debt collectors can get away with it when they treat you poorly. In fact, you can sue them for debt harassment. In essence, you may be able to recover any damages that the debt collector has caused you. For example, all of that stress may have caused you to miss work that you aren’t getting paid for because it’s making you physically ill. Maybe you have racked up medical bills because of that. Some people that are experiencing debt harassment become depressed.
That means they are no longer interested in taking part in the things in life that provide them with enjoyment. These are all examples of damages that are caused by debt harassment. On top of the damages, you may also be able to recover upwards of $1,000 and all legal fees. In some cases, victims of debt harassment end up getting more money than the debt they originally owed. That being said, it’s a small benefit to gain considering the fact that these debt collectors may very well be ruining your life. Just remember, you are not alone in this.
