What is the “Pennsylvania Debt Collection Law?”
In Pennsylvania, state debt collection laws mirror the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). The FDCPA is in place to protect consumers against unlawful debt collection tactics, including threats, lies, and harassment.
For PA residents, additional protections are offered under the Pennsylvania State debt collection law that are not covered by the federal law. Pennsylvania expands on the federal FDCPA to defend consumers against abusive practices by third-party collectors and original creditors.
FDCPA Guidelines in Pennsylvania
Because Pennsylvania State debt collection law is similar to the federal FDCPA, unfair and abusive debt collection practices are completely prohibited.
In Pennsylvania, debt collectors cannot contact you:
- Before 8:00 am or after 9:00 pm without your consent.
- Frequently and/or to the point of harassment.
- At work, if the debt collector is aware your employer does not allow such contact.
- When they are aware you are represented by an attorney.
- After you have told them to stop contacting you.
Additionally, when contacting consumers in the state of Pennsylvania, debt collectors may not:
- Threaten to harm you or confiscate your personal property.
- Speak to you using profane, vulgar, or obscene language.
- Make false statements to influence you to pay.
- Fail to identify as a debt collector in every communication.
