Bamboozled: Debt collector wasn't keeping track of payments and, surprisingly, state law doesn't require it | NJ.com

COMMENT: While New Jersey may not have a law requiring the debt collector to tell a person how much they owe the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) might. People should be entitled to know what they owe on a debt to make sure that they are paying (or being forced to pay) the correct amount.

The debt collector's excuses in this case are flimsy. It should not be hard for it to determine the amount owed. The woman was trying to pay what she legitimately owed.
