So what do you do when you don’t owe anything, and lowlife debt collectors still show up at your door or make threatening phone calls?

They have to comply, under the law, unless they have proof. Hence it turns into mandatory to rent a professional Exterminator Toronto company who’re experts in exterminating pest out of your home. The problem is they won’t really tell you who they are; they’ll just keep calling you.

There is such a thing as a statute of limitations in debt collections. If nobody shows up for years to collect a debt, the debt is considered terminated. They can’t collect it, even if they sue. But if this is a valid debt that’s not that old, and you just happen to not be able to pay, you don’t want to be dragged into court. You could be in big trouble then, and they could seize your assets. If you are unable to pay, you’ll just have to play nice with them, and plead with them to offer some understanding because you lost a job or something. If the debt collectors ask you if don’t have a retirement fund to pay them with, just say you don’t. They can’t touch that even if they sue. That is protected by law. If the harassment doesn’t stop, get in touch with a bankruptcy lawyer. You don’t want to make some kind of expensive mistake like tapping your nest egg, do you?
