If you are getting calls from Portfolio Recovery (or any other debt collector), there are a few things you may want to know. The most important of all is that you have legal options, and, often, this issue may be solved quickly and with favorable terms.
Portfolio Recovery is a debt collector based out of Virginia. They typically collect debt on behalf of banks, retailers, student loan lenders, etc. The company received many consumer complaints because of its aggressive debt collection practices.
If you are getting calls from Portfolio Recovery or any other debt collector, remember these 3 things:
1. We understand that debt collection calls are stressful… having an account go into collections or having a lawsuit filed against you can be stressful. That is just not something you want in your life…
2. But they are not the end of the world!! You have options. With the right advocate, many debts can be settled with favorable settlement terms and many collection lawsuits can be resolved outside the courthouse.
3. Calls from debt collectors often may be illegal. If a collection agency is contacting you – there is a good chance they violate one of many consumer protection laws. If so, you may be entitled to receive cash awards from a collection agency….
