Time has elapsed Congratulations! That’s the end of the practice test. Welcome to iComply! This is the part of the site where you can test your knowledge of industry rules and laws, and also learn a thing or two. The way it works is you can pick from 10 tests, and each test has 10 questions. Each question will be fed to you one by one, after you answer the question, it will tell you whether you got it right or not, and what the correct answer was, and why. Each question is worth a set number of points, and the more you get right, the higher your 2score will increase! These practice questions don’t count, so take your time to get comfortable with the test format! Let’s start you off with an easy one… Are you taking the iComply Practice Test right now? The correct answer was YES. The reason is because you are taking the practice test right now! Let’s go to the next question! The correct answer was YES. The reason is because you are taking the practice test right now! Let’s go to the next question! Alright, well that was easy, wasn’t it? So the types of tests on the site include both True or False questions and Multiple Choice. What is important to note is that the questions come from the Federal version of the FDCPA. You may answer a question and think “Wait a minute! I know this is wrong because we just got trained on this last week!”, but again, these questions are based on the general statute. Each state has it’s own jurisdiction and some states have either added their own version of the FDCPA, or maybe there is judge made law from a lawsuit that changed the rules. Here’s a good example: Is the original creditor regulated by the FDCPA? The correct answer is NO. We used this example, because in California there is something called the “Rosenthal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act” which is essentially California’s altered version of the original act. So our California people may be saying “Hey, if you’re working California paper they are!”. Well, to make the site easier, most of our questions are related to the general rules required under Federal Law. So keep that in mind when you get to a question where in your state, the rules may be a little different. The correct answer is NO.
