Common questions
How does Debt Collection Index rank debt collection agencies?
Debt Collection Index ranks agencies only on positive, verified measures: an active surety bond on file with the state regulator, recognised industry certifications, and years bonded. A complaint-handling score built from public CFPB records is in final validation. Every published fact links to its public source and shows the date it was last checked.
Can a debt collection agency pay to rank higher?
No. Rankings on Debt Collection Index are never for sale. Agencies can pay for clearly-labelled featured placement or for qualified buyer leads, but paid placement is always marked as such and can never change where an agency sits in the merit rankings.
Does Texas require debt collection agencies to be licensed?
Texas does not issue a collection licence as such. Every third-party debt collector must instead file a $10,000 surety bond with the Texas Secretary of State before collecting, under Texas Finance Code Chapter 392, Section 392.101. Bonded collectors appear on the Secretary of State public Debt Collector Search.
