Your Name
Your Address

Collector's Name
Collector's Address

Mr./Ms. Collector,

I am writing in response to your constant phone calls!

According to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act,   [15 USC 1692c] Section 805(c): CEASING COMMUNICATION: You must cease all communication with me after being notified in writing that I no longer wish to communicate with you. Therefore, I demand that you stop calling me at home, at work, on my cell phone or at any other location!

In accordance with the federal FDCPA, now that you have received this "stop calling" letter, you may only contact me to inform me that you:

  • are terminating further collection efforts;
  • invoking specified remedies which are ordinarily invoked by you or your company; or
  • intend to invoke a specified remedy.

Be advised that I am well well aware of my rights! For instance, I know that any future contact by you or your company violates the FDCPA and that since you already have my location information, calls made by you or your company to any 3rd party concerning me violates section 805(b)2 of the FDCPA.

Be advised that I am keeping accurate records of all correspondence from you and your company, including tape recording all phone calls. If you continue calling me I will pursue all available legal actions to stop you from harassing me and my family.

Always send stop calling letters by "official mail - return receipt requested" and keep a copy for your records.

Does anyone know if a dv letter can be sent via fax or fedex? Also is there a format for it somewhere?

I'm sending it to a PO BOX, should I still request a return receipt since its going to a PO Box and probably the mail man will sign it.

Who is the collection agency? I may be able to locate a physical address for you.

Only send to the address listed on your reports. If it is returned, they are reporting inaccurate information! Use that in your dispute's should it be returned due to a bad address.
