Which collectors can I look up?
These counts are federal complaints filed since October 2023 in the Consumer Complaint Database. A complaint is not a ruling that the company broke the law. Some totals cover a parent company, so do not add related rows together.

Is this collector real or a scam?
A real collector tells you its name, street address, and phone number. It also tells you about the debt in writing. A scammer avoids those details and pushes you to pay today.
Fake callers copy the names of real companies. So the name alone proves nothing. Call us and a consumer lawyer will go over the call with you for free.
Do you really owe it?
Call us for a free review if the debt may not be yours or the amount looks wrong. Collectors buy accounts in big batches, so names and amounts can be wrong. A consumer lawyer checks it with you before you pay anything.
A collector must send you a validation notice with its first contact or within five days after. It lists the debt details and the end date of your 30-day dispute period. Keep that notice in front of you for the call.
After your review, you can send a written dispute before that end date. If your dispute is covered and on time, the collector must stop collecting the disputed part until it mails you verification. Our validation letter tool helps you prepare that letter.
The five days and the 30 days come from the CFPB.
What can't a debt collector do?
A collector cannot call you before 8 a.m. or after 9 p.m. your time unless you agree. More than seven calls in seven days about one debt is presumed unlawful.
A collector cannot threaten you or lie about what you owe. It cannot tell your boss, family, or neighbors about your debt. It can talk with your spouse or your lawyer.
If you prove a collector broke these rules, a court can award up to $1,000 in extra damages. The money is not automatic. Read more on our call log checklist page.
The call hours and the seven calls rule are in the CFPB call rules.
The $1,000 comes from the FTC.

What is the seven calls in seven days rule?
If a collector keeps calling you about one debt, call our help line so a consumer lawyer can review those calls with you for free. Federal rules presume a violation if a collector calls more than seven times in seven days about one debt. The same applies to a call within seven days after you talked with the collector about that debt.
