I Have A Debt Collector On The Phone! What Now?

Individual debt collectors are handed a portfolio of accounts, and most of their workday, every day, will be spent working them. Bill collectors are subject to frequent performance evaluations and the bulk of their money is earned from personal commission payments. Thus, the size of a debt collector’s paycheck depends on how successful he or she is at collecting from debtors. This factor, coupled with relentless confrontations with angry and sensitive debtors, makes for an extremely high stress job with high employee turnover.
