CollectionAgencies.ca

CollectionAgencies.ca is an independent Canadian directory created to help people verify whether debt collectors are legitimate and understand their rights when contacted about debts. Our mission is to share clear, factual information with everyone—accurate and straightforward, with no jargon or bias. Many Canadians receive unexpected calls or letters from collection agencies and aren't sure whether they're genuine or how to respond. We built this directory to solve that problem by gathering verified information from public records and licensing databases, allowing you to confirm who's contacting you and what rules they must follow. Our comprehensive directory includes collection agencies operating in every Canadian province and territory. Each agency profile contains verified license details, current contact information, active phone numbers, and the geographic areas they serve. We source all our information from official government databases, provincial and territorial regulators, and, where possible, directly from the agencies themselves. Beyond the directory, we break down consumer protection laws in plain language so Canadians understand what debt collectors can and can't do under federal and provincial regulations. This includes information about permitted contact hours, prohibited collection practices, your right to dispute debts, and how to file complaints with regulators. We maintain strict editorial standards and independence. CollectionAgencies.ca is published and maintained by an independent Canadian team focused on verified public data and consumer transparency. We're not a financial or legal advisory service, but our content follows regulatory guidance and official records. Our editorial team reviews all information weekly and updates the directory promptly whenever licensing or contact details change. We don't promote, endorse, or receive compensation from any collection agency listed in our directory. Our only goal is to provide unbiased, accurate information so Canadians can handle interactions with debt collection agencies safely, knowledgeably, and with confidence. Whether you're verifying a collector's legitimacy, understanding your rights, or looking up provincial regulations, CollectionAgencies.ca serves as your trusted resource for navigating the Canadian debt collection landscape.
