Who Is Calling 800-798-5534?
If you’re receiving calls from 800-798-5534, they may be from CBE Group, a debt collection agency that works with creditors to recover unpaid accounts. While collectors are allowed to contact consumers, they must follow federal consumer protection laws—especially the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA).
If the calls seem frequent, aggressive, or misleading, you may have legal rights.
Your Rights When Dealing with CBE Group
The FDCPA sets clear limits on what debt collectors can do. Watch for these potential violations:
📞 Calls at inconvenient hours or repeated calls
Collectors generally cannot call before 8 a.m. or after 9 p.m. in your local time. Frequent or nonstop calls from 800-798-5534 may be considered harassment.
⚠️ Harassing or threatening behavior
Debt collectors cannot use abusive language, threaten arrest, or pressure you with intimidation to force payment.
📄 Failure to provide written debt information
Within five days of first contact, CBE Group must send written notice explaining the amount owed and the name of the original creditor.
👥 Discussing your debt with others
They cannot share information about your debt with friends, family members, or coworkers (except to obtain location information).
❌ False or misleading statements
Collectors cannot misrepresent the amount owed, falsely threaten legal action, or pretend to be attorneys or government officials.
What to Do If 800-798-5534 Keeps Calling
If you’re unsure about the debt—or concerned about how you’re being contacted—take these steps:

Document All Communication
Keep records of each call, including the date, time, and what was said. Save voicemails and letters.
Dispute the Debt in Writing
If the debt is inaccurate or not yours, you can dispute it. Collection activity must pause until verification is provided.
Send a Cease-and-Desist Letter
You can request that CBE Group stop contacting you. After receiving your letter, they may only contact you to confirm they will stop or notify you of legal action.
You May Be Entitled to Compensation
