Massachusetts Debt Consolidation

According to the debt consolidation laws of Massachussets the creditors are obliged to follow the fair debt collection practices act.We have discussed some of the laws in this page. We have also enlisted a few names of the reliable debt consolidation firms operating in the state for your benefit.

• If any debt collector threatens the debtor, that might result in a) Arrest of any debtor or, b) Garnishment of any wages of any debtor

• Communicating by telephone without disclosure of the name of the business or company of the creditor is illegal. The creditor should also disclose personal name and be honest. Any long distance telephone call should not be on the debtor’s expenditure.

• The creditor should send a written notice within 30 days of the first communication with the debtor. A copy of that notice should be sent to him every six months so long as the collection procedure continues.

• It is to be noted that the creditor cannot take any legal action against the debtor’s inability to pay unless additional payment or a new agreement is on the cards. This period is for 14 days from the time the statement is issued, unless otherwise indicated by the creditor.
