Hi tjensen@emeraldar, thank you for your comment and welcome to RegulationRoom. Given your experience in the collection industry, we hope you will share more of your thoughts on how to solve the problems CFPB has identified. For example, you may be interested in the subtopic about voicemails, above. Some collectors avoid leaving voicemails because of privacy issues. What has been your experience with this, and how could the problem be solved? You may also want to join the discussion on Making sure debt collectors & buyers have information about the debt.
Some of us find ourselves on the receiving end of daily (or more frequent) robo calls because we have common last names. And I do think that the debt collectors who have called me would very much like me to pay the debt even though it isn't mine.
