Why do I need this bond?
Pennsylvania collector-repossessor bonds are required by the Department of Banking and Securities in the amount of $5,000.
By posting a Pennsylvania collector-reposessor bond, principals (collectors and repossesors) pledge to comply with all terms of the Motor Vehicle Sales Finance Act and the Department of Banking and Securities and pay all money due to the commonwealth, the department and any person who suffers damages as a result of the collector’s unlawful and unethical business practices.
What’s the fine print?
Collector-repossessor bonds are continuously effective until canceled. If the surety wishes to terminate this bond before the expiration date, it must give the department 30 days’ notice prior to termination.
This bond is conditioned so that both clients and the Department may file claims against the principal. Regardless of the number of years the bond may run for, no claim can exceed the penal sum of $5,000.
