Hi You can legally stop all the harassing phone calls from the collection agencies. You can send a cease and desist letter via certified mail to a collection agency and request them to stop contacting you. However, make sure you have a copy of this letter for future reference. Once the collection agency receives this letter, they are required to stop communicating with you under the FDCPA law. They can only inform you about the actions that will be taken against you.

I also receive a letter from United Legal Corp yesterday November 11. There is the round postmark circle on the envelope that says "Jacksonville FL" but that is it, NO DATE (how is that possible??). I opened it and the date of the letter is October 11, in other words, I received it Nov 11 and it's dated Oct 11. It seems this may be their way around giving me 30 days to send a validation. Says it's regardintg National Title Loans, I assume it's for a payday loan, maybe one from Ellis Crosby, although I don't recognize the name.
