FDCPA Violation · Pennsylvania

Is a debt collector trying to collect on debt past the statute of limitations in Pennsylvania?

Force them to stop instantly — and build your case for $1,000+ in statutory damages.

Under federal law, this exact tactic is a violation of 15 U.S.C. § 1692e (and CFPB Regulation F). Once the state statute of limitations has run on a debt, the collector loses the right to file a lawsuit. Threatening one anyway is automatically false and misleading. Use our engine to generate an ironclad Federal Cease & Desist and Debt Validation notice in under 60 seconds.

Your rights in Pennsylvania

Collection agencies rely on fear and intimidation. Here is the exact consumer rights you hold over them right now.

Federal protection — 15 U.S.C. § 1692e (and CFPB Regulation F)

Suing — or threatening to sue — on a time-barred debt is a deceptive practice under federal law and the CFPB's debt collection rule.

Pennsylvania adds: Pennsylvania Fair Credit Extension Uniformity Act, 73 P.S. § 2270

UTPCPL treble damages plus attorney's fees. State remedies stack on top of federal FDCPA damages.

The $1,000 penalty box

$1,000 federal statutory damages, plus FDCPA and state UDAP penalties — and any 'judgment' obtained on a time-barred debt is voidable.

Evidence to lock in your case

Find the date of your last payment or last activity on the account. Compare it to your state's statute of limitations on written contracts.

Crucial rule: Once you send an official written Cease & Desist notice, the collector is legally banned from contacting you again — except to confirm they are stopping or to take you to court. If they call you one more time after receiving this letter, you have an open-and-shut lawsuit.
