Portfolio Recovery Associates

Have you received collection contact from Portfolio Recovery Associates?

Whether you owe the debt or not, you may be able to take legal action against the collector for placing harassing or threatening phone calls, sending letters that misrepresent the debt, placing calls to family members, neighbors, co-workers or friends about your debt, or inaccurately credit reporting the debt.

Collectors must follow the law when they contact a consumer about personal and household debt, such as credit cards, medical or utility bills, or personal loans.  If they overstep their bounds, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) offers protections to consumers from the collector's abusive collection tactics.  Under the law, consumers can recover up to $1000 for violations of the FDCPA, and $500 to $1500 by receiving robocalls to their cellphone, a violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act.

Portfolio Recovery Associates is one of the largest debt buyers in the United States. Typically, they will purchase debt accounts for “pennies on the dollar” of the amount owed from businesses who want to end collection efforts, then pursue collection over a period of years amounting to two to three times the original purchase price.
