Can a creditor send your debt to collections w/o notice?

If you owe a debt to a creditor, they can send it to collections at any time. Unfortunately, they aren't required to notify you — creating a nasty surprise when you check your credit score.

Your top 3 next steps after debt is sent to collections (with or without notice)

If your debt is sent to collections (whether you were notified or not) you have options to protect yourself  — & your score.

Verify the information is accurate

If the creditor didn't report your info correctly, there's a good chance you can dispute the negative item on your credit report. How often is inaccurate info reported? The FTC estimates that 20% of credit reports contain negative items that are reported incorrectly. Common info that is reported incorrectly includes:

• Name

• Address

• Dates associated with debt

If you find that any item on this list is inaccurate, it's your right to dispute them and hold the creditor accountable. The easiest way to dispute? Trust an expert, like Credit Glory, to help guide you through the process.

Make sure the debt is yours before you pay it

Before paying any debts you need to verify it's actually yours. If a collector is holding you responsible for a debt you don't owe, it's your right to hold them accountable for inaccurate reporting. The benefit? Removing negative items can help save you from ridiculous interest rates.
