How to Deal With Harassing Creditors

What Action to Take With a Threatening or Harassing

The Consumer Credit Licensing Bureau (a government department with teeth) deals with consumer credit licensing matters. All company’s that supply credit to consumers (not companies) must have a licence. The licence is the ‘life blood’ of any lender, retailer etc. The bureau will take effective action against those who do not act within the rules: if they are informed. All moneylenders must have a licence.

If a creditor is threatening you, you can either write to the licence bureau, or in a bodily harm threat, contact the police. If a creditor knocks on your door every week, or telephones you constantly at work, at night, and you ask them not to: they are harassing you. The creditor must take legal action or write off the debt.
