If a apartment complex is trying to collect money from u how and its been 6 yrs before they contacted u?
Answer:
Are you in England? CAuse if you are i think there is a cut off point after seven years when they haven't collected it, when the debt is written off (but i could be imagining this)
Your screwed and will have to pay if they sue you.
This is the newest and fastest growing niche in debt collection. This is an old debt that sells for about a cent for every dollar owed. The reason is that the debt is so old that:
1. Debtors are hard to locate
2. The statute of limitations has expired in most states
They know that anything under 7 years can still be reported on your credit report. Relax. You likely have no legal liability to pay (unless your state has a longer statute of limitations). If they are calling, tell them they must cease all telephone contact because it is inconvenient to you. You have this right under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.
Do you owe the money?
If so, pay it.
Sheesh.whatever happened to honesty?
Ignore them.
