Costa Rica residents may find their debt unexpectedly sold to another company. It's crucial to understand your rights when this happens. By law, the original creditor must notify you in writing about the sale, including the new creditor's name and contact information. You have the right to request documentation proving the debt transfer, ensuring the sale was legitimate. Understanding this process allows you to verify the debt amount and dispute any inaccuracies. Failure of the original creditor to notify you properly may invalidate the sale. Knowing your rights protects you from unfair collection practices in Costa Rica.
