Before contacting a collection agency, verify that the debt is legitimate and accurately reported. Credit reports can contain errors or list debts that are no longer valid. Also, be aware that making payments on a debt can reset the clock and potentially harm your credit.

Will Enterprise Collections sue me or garnish my wages?

Enterprise Collections, like any other debt collection agency, is legally entitled to sue you for an unpaid debt. If a court judgment is obtained against you, they might then be able to garnish your wages, levy your bank account, or take other actions to recover the debt, subject to the laws in your state.

However, lawsuits and wage garnishment are typically a last resort for most debt collection agencies due to the costs and time involved. The decision often depends on the amount of the debt, the likelihood of collection, and the specific policies of the collection agency.

Enterprise Collections Complaints

Many collection agencies have numerous complaints filed with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and the Better Business Bureau (BBB). Most complaints are about inaccurate reporting, harassment, or failure to verify a debt. If you are being harassed, consider filing a complaint.

You have many consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). These rights include disputing credit reporting errors and being treated fairly and respectfully by debt collectors.
