Generally speaking, face-to-face collection is legal (putting aside any issues of whether a particular loan is legal) and while rare, some storefront lenders will send someone to knock on your door. The idea is that psychologically it's a lot easier for most people to hang up a phone than slam a door in someone's face. But it's also a lot quicker and cheaper to have a collector make 10-12 calls in an hour than to pay one visit, so even local lenders generally don't use this tactic, although they might threaten to do so.

Though I do not agree with their tactics, I believe others have had the experience of store front lenders coming to their homes. From other posts I have read, this is not breaking the law and they can do this.

Goldenbast is going thru this now. I think she has had 3 different people given criminal tresspass warnings. I'd feel sorry for anyone knocking on my door trying to collect anything....it would be a fatal experience for them.

Just like kfstaff24 stated, there is nothing worng with knocking on a door until you are told to leave. Once you are instructed to leave or they have a no tresspassing sign posted, you are violating the law on any future visit.

We do knock on doors, but it is not for the purpose of collecting money in the field. It is mearly a means of gather information and establishing contact with a delinquent customer. I discourage my staff from accepting money at ones home or work due to liability and tracking reasons. I want all transactions with cash on video in my store to protect both the customer and employee.

I had some one call and threaten to have the FDBI come pick me up which is suppose to be the Federal Debt section of the FBI only the man who was claiming the was going to have them come to my house couldn't tell me any information and the loans he was talking about were from a time when I never even had any type of loans, this man even went back to saying I had I PDL when I was 15 so its probably just a scam or they are trying to scare.

MGL87OK, seriously i would report them to the FBI. I did that when a company was using the FBI as a threat and besides being illegal, the FBI really does not like that

I did contact the local police department and they said that if the guy called me again to file a report and they track my phone records so that they could track him down. Not to mention they told me that this man would be a idiot if he tried to come to my house since I live on a military base or to even try and scam me outside the court house since the court house is right behind the police station.
