Isn't that the truth? I wonder why they quit for a while. Usually I find that when they do this my account has been sold for the umpteenth time and its a whole new collector to deal with.

I would also be nervous about any abrupt stops in calls w/o a FOAD letter. Although I can never figure out why ppl don't send one to every CA who calls.....

What is a FOAD letter. Not really good with abbrev..yet. I always thought contacting them with any type of letter would make them contact you even more. Any time I have tried to get rid of them they usually sold the account and it started all over again. At least if I ignore them I get that little break here and there.

LOL FOAD is short for F*@$ Off And Die,it is bascially a CND letter. Also, if anyone you send a FOAD, CND letter to continues to contact you, it is grounds for a harrassment suit.

Now, keep in mind that if they have a legit reason to contact you and you send them the FOAD letter, While they cannot contact you anymore they can still report to CRAs and possibly start a lawsuit.

This is why you will want to limit your FOAD letters to CAs past the SOL or who have been unable to validate debt

You can find a FOAD letter in this forum itself. I searched and found one. Here is the link http://www.creditmagic.org/repair/7years-old-collector.html .
FOAD letters can be used when a debt has crossed its SOL period and is no longer collectible but the CA still harass you for the debt. This letter is generally send to the CA to warn him that he is violating the FDCA act and you are likely to file a lawsuit against him if he continues disturbing you.
