Default Now You Can Fight Back against Debt Collection Agencies
Hello All,

I am a little disappointed that there are thousands of people complaining about Debt Collection Agencies and the like, yet only a couple of hundred people have signed these petitions.

Please, take a few minutes of your time and do the right thing. Sign up and take a stand against these companies

Petition One
Petition to: Introduce legislation to give better protection from harrassment by Debt Collection Agencies.

Debt Collection Agencies are increasingly targeting people for debts that they do not owe or dispute, which calls into question their tracing and data sharing procedures. Little or nothing can be done to deter the harrassment caused by them telephoning day and night, and a constant stream of pointless letters. People avoiding debt leave a trail of misinformation, something which DCA's don't seem to understand. To respond to a letter or call seems to be an automatic admission, whether or not the debt is actually owed. There has to be a better way to protect people from the tactics employed by these Companies, while correctly identifying evasive debtors.

Petition Two
Petition to: Restict Access to Consumers White Data By the Debt Purchase Industry.

The Debt Purchase Industry, want to have access to Consumers Personal data, before they purchase a debt from a financial institution. Legislation should be introduced to strengthen Consumers rights for privacy and to prevent the Debt Purchase Industry accessing this data.
