    We get this question quite a lot.


    It all depends on each DCA, their policies, the age of the debt, the amount owed, any payment plans in place etc etc.


    Without knowing individual circumstances, there is no one answer.


    If you want to see what people have had experience with in the past, we have a big thread on the subject here: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/115430
