Steps customized for New Hampshire law, phone & telecom debt rules, and Radius Global Solutions's collection patterns.
The statute of limitations is the legal deadline for a creditor or collector to file a lawsuit to collect a debt. After this period, the debt is 'time-barred' — they can still contact you, but they cannot win in court if you raise the SOL defense.
SOL periods vary by state and debt type: credit card debt ranges from 3 years (MD, NC, NH) to 10 years (RI, WV). Written contracts (personal loans) range from 3 to 15 years (KY). Your state's SOL is listed on the DebtShield state page.
The SOL typically starts on the date of first delinquency — the first missed payment that led to the default. It's NOT the date the account was charged off or sent to collections. Get the exact date from your credit report.
In most states, the SOL can be reset by: making any payment on the debt, making a written promise to pay, entering a new payment agreement, or in some states, even verbally acknowledging the debt. Never pay or acknowledge time-barred debt.
If you're sued on a time-barred debt, you MUST raise the SOL as an affirmative defense in your Answer. If you don't raise it, the court may award judgment anyway. File your Answer on time and explicitly plead the SOL defense.
These strategies apply to phone & telecom debt specifically. Telecom debt from cell phone, internet, and cable bills. The FCC regulates billing practices. Early termination fees and equipment charges are the most common disputes.
