Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Florida
Non-US Company harrassing me
A company in India is contacting me at odd hours (6 AM to 10 PM) and will not stop calling me even though I have asked them to stop. Is there anything I can do? I had an account with a computer retailer and this is their 3rd party collector. Are they bound by FDCPA regulations?

Re: Non-US Company harrassing me
Yes, all third party debt collectors are bound by the FDCPA -- the exception is if this company in India is the inside collection department for the credit card company. Try to get something in writing from them to identify who they are. Please visit my web page www.FLORIDACREDITLAWYER.com for more information on what debt collectors can and can't do.
