Don’t Pay Bills In Collections

  • Summary

  • Entrepreneurs managing their business finances must grasp the importance of understanding their rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, especially when handling collections. When a debt is sold by the original creditor, the associated contract ends, and a third-party collector steps in. These collectors can claim you owe them, despite having no agreement with you. Disputing the debt under this Act forces collectors to validate the debt, potentially leading to its removal from your credit report if they fail to prove their claim. This is crucial because a clean credit report enhances your ability to secure business loans, attract investors, and establish trade accounts. Importantly, paying off the debt doesn't necessarily improve your credit score if it remains marked as paid collection. Knowledge of your rights can help protect your credit, avoid unnecessary payments, and keep your business financials healthy as you grow your enterprise.
