What NOT to Say If You Answer 800-501-0909
Anything you say to Cavalry SPV can be used to collect. Protect yourself — avoid these common mistakes on the call.
Don't admit the debt is yours
When 800-501-0909 calls, saying "yes, that's mine" or apologizing can be treated as acknowledging the debt — which may reset the statute of limitations. Neither confirm nor deny until you've seen written validation from Cavalry Portfolio Services.
Don't agree to a payment on the spot
A single payment to Cavalry Portfolio Services — even a small "good-faith" one — can restart the clock on an old debt and make it collectable again. Never authorize a payment over a call from 800-501-0909.
Don't give bank or card details
Do not read out your bank account, debit, or credit card number to anyone calling from 800-501-0909. Any legitimate Cavalry Portfolio Services resolution can be handled in writing after validation.
Don't confirm personal information
Avoid confirming your SSN, date of birth, employer, or address to the 800-501-0909 caller. If it truly is your Cavalry Portfolio Services account, they should already have what they need and must prove it.
What To Do If 800-501-0909 Keeps Calling

- 1

- 2
Do not return the call to 800-501-0909 until you have the account details in writing — a call-back can be treated as engagement.

Ask, in writing, that Cavalry Portfolio Services identify the original creditor behind the 800-501-0909 calls and the date the debt was opened.
Your Rights When Cavalry SPV Calls From 800-501-0909
The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) and Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) give you real leverage. Here is the debt-validation playbook we use at Crowned Credit.
1. Demand Debt Validation (FDCPA §809)
Within 30 days of first contact, send Cavalry SPV a written debt-validation letter. They must prove the debt is yours, the amount is right, and they have the legal authority to collect — or stop collecting.
2. Dispute With the Bureaus (FCRA §611)
If Cavalry Portfolio Services reported a tradeline, dispute it with Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. They have 30 days to investigate; unverifiable items must be corrected or deleted.
3. Log the Calls
Write down every call from 800-501-0909: date, time, and what was said. Repeated calls, calls at odd hours, or threats can be FDCPA violations — and leverage for you.
4. Send a Cease-and-Desist
You can demand in writing that Cavalry Portfolio Services stop calling you entirely. The calls must stop, even though they may still report or pursue other legal steps.
5. Check the Statute of Limitations
Every state limits how long a collector can sue on a debt. If the debt is time-barred, Cavalry SPV generally cannot win a lawsuit — and a payment could dangerously restart that clock.
6. Know the Anti-Harassment Rules
The FDCPA bars Cavalry SPV from calling before 8am or after 9pm, threatening you, or lying about the debt. Each violation may entitle you to statutory damages.

Do I have to answer or call back 800-501-0909?
You are not legally required to answer 800-501-0909 or call Cavalry Portfolio Services back. In fact, it is usually smarter to say nothing on the phone and instead demand everything in writing.

A call from 800-501-0909 usually means an original credit card debt went unpaid and was sold to Cavalry Portfolio Services, which now owns the balance and dials this line to collect it. The account may have aged or changed hands more than once, so demand the full paper trail before you accept the balance as accurate.
Can I stop Cavalry Portfolio Services from calling 800-501-0909?
Yes. The FDCPA lets you send a written cease-and-desist demand telling Cavalry Portfolio Services to stop contacting you by phone.
