Key legislation — plain English
| Act | What it means for you |
|---|---|
| Debt Collectors Act 114 of 1998 | Sets the rules for who may collect and how — your shield against cowboy tactics done in your name. |
| National Credit Act 34 of 2005 | Where consumer credit applies, collection must respect NCA boundaries and debtor rights. |
| POPIA 4 of 2013 | Personal information used in recovery must be processed lawfully, minimally, and securely. |
| Prescription Act 68 of 1969 | Debts can expire. Delay is not neutral — prescription risk is why timing matters. |
| Magistrates' Courts / civil procedure touchpoints | When matters escalate, procedure protects enforceability — not improvisation. |
| Consumer Protection Act (where relevant) | Consumer matters demand fair dealing; brand-safe recovery still means lawful recovery. |
