Why is 1-888-797-7727 calling me?
MetCredit is a debt collector.
They may be calling because:
- A creditor has hired them to collect an unpaid debt
- They purchased your debt from the original creditor
- They're trying to reach someone else and have the wrong number
If you don't recognize the debt, ask for written verification before providing any personal information or making payments.

Is 1-888-797-7727 a scam?
Based on our records, 1-888-797-7727 is associated with MetCredit, a legitimate collection agency operating in Canada. However, scammers sometimes impersonate legitimate companies.
Verify any debt using the contact details on their website before paying. It's also a good idea to see if any collections have been added to your credit report.
How do I stop 1-888-797-7727 from calling?
Send MetCredit a cease and desist letter. Once they get it, they have to stop calling. The debt doesn't go away, and they can still take you to court.
Use our cease and desist letter templates.
This right doesn't apply in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Newfoundland and Labrador, PEI, or Yukon. For loans, lines of credit, or credit cards, send the letter by registered mail under federal law. Read more.

How to deal with MetCredit
Step 1: Ask for written verification. Get the creditor's name, the amount owed, and the account number in writing before you do anything.
Step 2: Don't share personal details. No banking info, date of birth, or address until you've confirmed the debt is yours.

Step 4: Know your rights. Learn more about what to expect on our MetCredit profile page.
