Unless they’re collecting a judgment, it’s probably too old for them to sue you. You can tell them to stop calling. If they don’t obey you can sue.

I received a letter from a debt collector. Sent them a request for validation. They sent account statements and a letter that they claimed to have mailed. However, I looked at my credit report and that account is NOT on my credit report. I’m so confused!

They don’t have to report it if they don’t want to. A debt’s validity does not depend on it being reported.

Question, are credit bureaus allowed to keep c support on your credit report indefinitely? Are they allowed to keep putting it back onto your report if it's already been on for 7 years and dropped off? And if it, not is it possible to sue if they're doing this, and if so, would that be in small claims court?
@RWlawFL2 күн бұрын
The limit is seven years from the date of first delinquency. If they re-add the debt after that, they’re probably breaking the law.

I’ve written a verification letter and sent it back in July, it is now OCTOBER. For background, it is a medical bill on a day I did receive service. However, I don’t think I was reached out by my hospitals billing and it was went straight to collections. I am trying to understand if this physicians bill is truly mine now that it not coming from the hospital/provider. I sent an email AND certified mail, in which they have received both. I don’t want this wait time to hurt my credit even further, somehow. I requested an itemized statement along with my letter to prove my debt but they’re saying the hospital has not been able to get them the statement so it’s some sort of waiting game… Another this is that I ran 2/3 credit reports to try to see if my account appeared there, I don’t see it. If that normal to not report to the credit bureaus? I’m confused, what can I do? I’ve reached out to them via phone call to get an update every week at this point.
@RWlawFL5 күн бұрын
If it’s not on your credit report, and you haven’t heard anything from them since you disputed, then everything is working as planned. Don’t rock the boat. But if they contact you without responding to your dispute that may be a violation of law.

I submitted a debt validation letter and the collection agency responded with a blank statement account that only has the past due balance, not the actual charges. No way to tell how the amount is calculated.
@RWlawFL13 күн бұрын
That's not uncommon. The bar for their response is very low. But if it used to be your account, you might have some account records of your own showing a contrary balance. And if you do, that's all you need to spot a possible FDCPA violation.

The third time she rang the doorbell then she knocked forcefully. I'm not answering the door when you are banging like you have lost your mind. I'm guessing that was someone trying to serve me. I haven't received anything that my debt is with them. I guess they went straight to a lawsuit. I called the credit card company and they told me it was with a collections law firm. So do I need to contact to get a Debt Validation..

I've had the strangest thing. Six weeks ago I got served from LNVD funding. It had an original date printed out in July, crossed out by pen and a pen written date above it of October 21st. When I called the Clerk about a week later, I noticed when I pulled it up on the clerks website by the case number, it was showing no date. She said give it about a week if you just got served. That was six weeks ago and today it's the same. Still no case info showing up.

Thanks for sharing this debt collection video. Your video triggered my question regarding the five-day debt collection letter, after the initial communication. The question is which debt collection communication is the initial communication, for example, if received via two text messages on June 6, 2023 and letter (dated June 2, 2023) via mail on June 14, 2023? In other words, I received the text messages first, before the letter. Only the letter contained all the required 1692g information per the FDCPA.

If they mailed the letter within 5 days of the text messages, that probably complies. But the texts might have other violations.

They don't "expect" anything but they're applying pressure. If it's a ten-year-old debt, how are they enforcing it? If they already have a judgment, you're going to end up getting garnished or levied in most states.
