How to File a Complaint Against a Debt Collector

As debt collection activities surge, borrowers face increasing pressure from collectors, often experiencing harassment and violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). Consumers can file complaints against abusive collectors through the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, state attorney general’s offices, or the Federal Trade Commission. It’s crucial to document interactions and evidence of violations for effective complaints. Additionally, exploring debt relief options can help borrowers manage legitimate debts while addressing improper collection tactics.
