Harassed By NCO Financial? Here are some tips you can use right now to gain control over the abusive NCO phone calls.

- Remain calm and do not resort to screaming or crying during the course of the conversation, remain in control.
- Do not be bullied by NCO Financial or any other debt collector, into agreeing to anything at all over the phone, until you have had time to review all the information on the debt.
- Once you've been contacted by phone, ask NCO for all the details of the amount they are attempting to collect from you. You have the right to get a notice that outlines your specific debt, whom you owe money to, and what action you can take if the debt does not belong to you.
- Keep a communications log of all calls from NCO Financial so you have a written record of dates and times of each call.
- If you can, record the conversation with NCO Financial or any other debt collector, check your states laws to find out if this is an acceptable practice in your state.
- Make certain you have copies of all written correspondence with NCO and keep everything organized in a file for easy access.
- Order copies of your credit reports to review for any negative items from NCO Financial.
- Remember, again, you do not have to put up with threats, name calling and other abusive practices from NCO Financial or any other debt collector, you have rights under the Federal and State Debt Collection Laws, contact a Fair Debt Collection Practices Act Attorney who can advise you of your rights.
- NCO Financial Services cannot call you before 8 a.m.or after 9 p.m., unless you agree.
- You cannot be contacted at work by a debt collector if the collector knows your employer disapproves and you have provided the collector with this information.
- To get a debt collector such as NCO Financial to stop calling and contacting you, write a letter telling them to stop. According to the FDCPA, they must stop. This does not make the debt go away altogether, but it is a step in the right direction.
- A debt collector can call your friends and family BUT ONLY to find out how to get in touch with you and they CAN NOT divulge any information about the debt during this type of contact.
- NCO can't deceive or misrepresent the total amount of your debt.
- NCO Financial can't say that they will put a lien on your property or file a lawsuit unless this truly is their intent and it is legal under the laws that apply to your debt.
