Threatening you with arrest for not paying your debt.
Calling you prior to 8 a.m. or after 9 p.m.
Calling you multiple times per day.
Contacting your friends, family, or coworkers about your debt.
Using profane or threatening language.
Refusing to validate your debt.
Continuing to contact you after receiving a Cease and Desist Letter.

What if Source Receivables Management actually sues you over your debt? Don’t panic. You have a brief window of time to respond to the lawsuit by filing an Answer with the court.
Act fast, as most jurisdictions allow you just two to four weeks to respond. If you don’t file an Answer within this time frame, the court may render a default judgment in favor of Source Receivables Management.
Validate your debt
Many customer complaints allege that Source Receivables Management is contacting them about illegitimate debt. That’s why it’s important to request that the company validate your debt. A Debt Validation Letter should include:
The name of your original creditor.
The amount you owe.
The date you incurred the debt.
The date of the last payment.
Evidence that connects you to the debt.
Since Source Receivables Management handles debts for a range of companies, validating your debt can help you identify the reason you’ve been contacted.

Negotiate a lower settlement
Once you verify that the debt is yours, you can negotiate a lower settlement amount. Most companies are willing to settle for a lower amount to avoid legal fees. Start by sending a debt settlement offer.
As a general rule, start by agreeing to pay 60% of the total amount. Source Receivables Management may accept this offer, or it may respond with a counteroffer. The goal is to open up negotiations until you arrive at a mutually agreeable settlement amount.
Let’s look at an example of how someone settled their debt with SoloSettle.
Example: Tyler knew he’d gotten behind with his credit card payments. He just didn’t know how far behind he was until he started receiving calls from someone claiming to represent Source Receivables Management. Once Tyler confirmed that this was a legitimate company, he requested a Debt Validation Letter to determine the exact source of his debt. The company demonstrated that Tyler owed nearly $10,000. So Tyler used SoloSettle to start negotiating a lower settlement amount. He offered to pay $6,000, and Source Receivables Management accepted. Tyler is now able to make payments to resolve his debt completely and rebuild his credit.
Always save your communications with Source Receivables Management. This is especially important once you reach a settlement. These records will prevent the debt collector from going behind your back and seeking a default judgment after you’ve agreed to a settlement.
Never accept a verbal settlement agreement. Instead, ask for the agreement in writing and save it along with any emails, letters, or other documents that prove that your debt is being resolved.
