It is essential for debtors to maintain a diary of all the contact between the debt collectors and themselves. If they are calling you frequently, you need to report this to your local Trading Standards office with a diary of harassment. The Trading Standards office will take care of this matter and will issue a verbal warning or criminal prosecution against the debt collection agencies. Even the OFT can revoke their credit license.
