How to Verify a Debt Under the FDCPA — Step by Step

Steps customized for Arkansas law, personal loan debt rules, and Radius Global Solutions's collection patterns.

1

Act within 30 days of first contact

You must send a validation request within 30 days of the collector's first contact. After 30 days, you lose the automatic right to halt collection, though collectors must still stop if they can't verify.

2

Write the validation letter

Request: exact amount owed, name of original creditor, proof collector is authorized to collect, copy of original agreement. DebtShield generates this letter automatically with the correct legal language.

3

Send certified mail with return receipt

Mail via USPS Certified Mail with Return Receipt. Keep the green card as proof of delivery. The 30-day clock stops when they receive your letter, not when you send it.

4

Wait — they must cease all activity

The collector MUST stop all collection activity — including credit reporting updates and legal action — until they validate. Contacting you during this period is an FDCPA violation.

5

Evaluate the response critically

If they can't validate, the debt is legally unenforceable. If they validate, check for errors: wrong amount, wrong person, time-barred debt, missing original agreement, broken chain of title.
