Why is Radius Global Solutions Calling Me?
If you received a phone call, or multiple phone calls, from Radius Global Solutions, there could be several reasons for it. In most cases, it means they are trying to collect an outstanding debt on behalf of a client of theirs.

What Happens if I Pay My Debt With Radius Global Solutions?
Paying your debt with Radius Global Solutions does not remove it from your credit report. When you pay off a debt collector, the debt’s status changes from “unpaid” to “paid” on your credit report. When this happens, your debt collection remains on your credit report for up to seven years. So even though you paid your debt, it continues to affect your credit score for a long time. Reaching an alternative settlement can avoid this complication altogether.
What if Radius Global Solutions Tries to Sue Me?
It is highly unlikely that Radius Global Solutions, or any other debt collection agency, will attempt to sue. This very rarely happens, and is almost guaranteed not to happen as long as you are proactive. Contacting a credit repair company early on is the best way to ensure that the issue is resolved smoothly.
What Are My Options if Radius Global Solutions is Harassing Me?
If you are receiving harassing phone calls from Radius Global Solutions, you have a right to dispute their claims. The FDCPA (Federal Debt Collections Practices Act) forbids certain abusive or unfair practices for debt collection agencies. Among other things, debt collectors may not use any of the following tactics:
- Harmful or abusive language
- Threatening violence or physical harm
- Use false or misleading information
- Make repeated phone calls at an inconvenient time, such as in the middle of the night
- Threatening undue legal action
If you feel that Radius Global Solutions has violated either of these acts, you should document all evidence. You should also request a document of verification for your supposed debt from them. If threatening behavior does not stop, debt collectors can be reported to the Federal Trade Commission or Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
How Can I Remove Radius Global Solutions From My Credit Report?
There are several ways to remove a referred debt from your credit report. First, you should obtain a copy of your credit report from each of the three major credit bureaus. These are Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. If there are any inaccuracies in one of these reports, you can dispute it with the credit bureau.
If this does not work, you should request a debt validation from Radius Global Solutions. If they are unable to validate your debt, it means they made an error. In this case, the debt should be removed from your credit report.
If this does not work, you should work with a credit repair company. Working with an expert, you can decide on the best course of action to resolve your situation. You may be able to reach a settlement with Radius Global Solutions concerning unpaid debts.
