Re: Account #123456789
Dear Sir or Madam:
I am writing to ask that you stop communications to me about my account with Amy's
Department Store, as required by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.
I was laid off from work two months ago and can’t pay this bill at this time. I am now in a
training program that ends in March and hope to find work that will let me to make payments
soon after that.
You should know that your employees have engaged in illegal collection practices. For
example, I got a phone call at 6:30 a.m. from one of them last week. Later that day, the same
person called me at my training program. Personal phone calls are not allowed except for
emergencies. My family and I were very upset by these tactics.
Stop contacting me.
I will take care of this matter when I can. Your cooperation is appreciated.
Sincerely,
____________________________________________________
