Sky Warner Posted October 19, 2002 Report Share Posted October 19, 2002 OK guys. I have checked my equifax and experian reports and the listing is still there from the CA who pulled my credit without permission.OK here are my questions..1)the company does business under 2 diff names ((its Cavalry on one report and Zirgo Acceptance on the other 2) Do I sue them seperately?2) if I DO sue them separately, should I send each one a letter stating that I will settle for 700 of the 1000 they owe me before I file, or should I just sue the SOBs?3) Is it 1000 for EACH CRA or just 1000 for the action of pulling my credit on all 3 bureas?4) How would I word a letter to these boobs.. I plan on filing in Small Claims court. I was told by the clerk in my county that as long as they accept the CMRR when they send them out the letter that they are being sued.. it doesnt matter that they are in AZ. I can still do small claims here in my hometown.I guess we will see how this goes. I intend to file the suit pretty soon.

admin Posted October 22, 2002 Report Share Posted October 22, 2002 FCRA - $1000 per violation + punitive damages (pain and suffering)FDCPA - $1000 per action + actual damages + attorneys fees.<blockquote>1)the company does business under 2 diff names ((its Cavalry on one report and Zirgo Acceptance on the other 2) Do I sue them seperately?</blockquote>No, sue as one company<blockquote>2) if I DO sue them separately, should I send each one a letter stating that I will settle for 700 of the 1000 they owe me before I file, or should I just sue the SOBs?</blockquote>see above<blockquote>3) Is it 1000 for EACH CRA or just 1000 for the action of pulling my credit on all 3 bureas?</blockquote>It's one violation per CRA under the FCRA.<blockquote>4) How would I word a letter to these boobs.. I intend to file the suit pretty soon. </blockquote>I'd say that they need to pull the inquiry or pay you $1000. You need to give them this opportunity or the judge most likely won't be too sympathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
