On December 16,2006 I sent out 16 CRRR DV letters to all 3 CRA and rest were all CA. I have received 4 letters back from CA's. I am scared to respond to these letters because it is still with in the 30 days and I don't want to give them an extention. I have done the 1-2 punch. Should I wait till Jan 15,2007 to send the second letter to the CA's.

NCO- 2 accounts on my report. I recieved a letter on 12-20-06 stating they could not locate the accounts please send more info.

I did not respond.

Apex- 1 account received a letter of validation- It was a bill! I did not respond

Wells Fargo-2 accounts with them- received letter on 12-22-06 stated they needed more information. I never sent them a letter. I did not respond

TODAY NCO- Received a letter of validation- with a new account number. It was a bill. I did not respond

I also spoke with TU today! NCO deleted both accounts I was disputing.

I sent everyone a C&D. All are replying with bills. Because it has not been 30 days. Should I respond or wait till Jan 17? Just worried that I might blow things

And are any of these CA in violation. I think NCO and Apex is. None of the CA have even closley given me what I asked for. And that was PROOF. they just send bills!

However!!!!! On a good note! Since sending my letters on Dec 15,06 There were 5 CA deleted from my report.:D

And I am not extending the 30 days by responding to the CA. I remember reading somewhere on here that. The CA trick you and send these things to trap you. I could be wrong but I want to make sure

Nothing you or the CA does can extend the 30 day verification period. Since they already sent you copies of the bills, there really isn't anything more you could expect to get from them anyway.

I want proof that I am the person. A Bill is not proof. I requested


•Complete payment history, the requirement of which has been established.
•Agreement that bears the signature of the alleged debtor wherein he agreed to pay the original creditor.
•Letter of sale or assignment from the original creditor to your company. (Agreement with your client that grants you the authority to collect on this alleged debt.) Information relating to the purchase of a bad debt is not proprietary or burdensome. Debtor must phrase their request clearly to obtain: The source of a debt and the amount a bad debt buyer paid for plaintiff's debt, how amount sought was calculated, where in issue a list of reports to credit bureaus, and documents conferring authority on defendant to collect debt.
•Intimate knowledge of the creation of the debt by you, the collection agency.

This was not provided to me! Plus NCO took off the 2 accounts I was disputing and replaced it with a new account number. Is that legal?

In reference to NCO. They had 2 accounts on my CR which have been removed. Now today they have a totally different account number for the same OC. Do I DV with the new number? And If I do I am not violated any 30 day rule.

I really don't mean to be a pain. I just want to make sure I am doing the correct thing. And I have been reading all the post (past and present) But it is very contradicting sometimes

The account number means nothing. NCO can assign a different account number to the debt every day if they so choose.

What matters is if they can identify the original creditor and the amount of the claim. And, if it comes to them suing you, justify the amount due is correct, it's yours, and they have legal right to such claim in court.

If you can prove in court the debt, or the amount of the debt, is not rightfully due, you have a FDCPA claim. If not, you don't.

There's no such thing as "violating any 30 day rule" other than their continued collection without providing verification, which they apparently have already done.
