❓ What can happen if you ignore a debt collector?

📉 Credit Score Impact: Ignoring debt collectors can lead to a drop in your credit score, making it harder to get loans, credit cards, or even rent a home. Payment history is the most important factor, and missed payments will cause your score to fall even further once the debt is sent to collections.

📞 Increased Collection Efforts: Debt collectors may start contacting you more frequently through calls, emails, written notices, and even social media. While these are legal, you have rights and protections during this process.

⚖️ Risk of a Lawsuit: Ignoring debt collectors can result in a lawsuit, and they might seek a court order to garnish your paycheck. You can respond to a lawsuit yourself, without needing a lawyer. Check out this video series to learn more:    • How to Respond to a Debt Collection Lawsui...  

💡 Exploring Your Options: If you can’t afford to pay the debt, it’s time to explore debt-relief options. Start with a free consultation with a nonprofit credit counselor to understand your best course of action. They may suggest a debt management plan or even Chapter 7 bankruptcy for a fresh start.

🔍 DIY Debt Solutions: If you prefer a more hands-on approach, consider debt consolidation or negotiating a debt settlement. Not sure which is right for you? Take our free screener to get personalized guidance. 🌐 https://link.upsolve.org/freedebtscre...

📜 Know Your Rights: As you figure out your next steps, remember that the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act offers several consumer protections. You have the right to be informed about the debt and to dispute it, and debt collectors are not allowed to harass you.
