Barney Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 I tried to call Capital one bank who is listed as the Defendant to see if they still have alleged debt or if it was sold and the person I talked to said they can not discuss this subject with me as the account has been charged off.This Complaint says they want me to pay the balance of a liquidated debt.BUT;1.There is only a generic agreement attached2. There is no written proof attached from Capital one Bank stating what the balance was when it was charged off. a. Am I required to take the attorneys word. 3.They give all these different contracts that I allegedly agreed to use and pay this card a.should they not be required to show which one of these or combination of contracts I allegedly agreed to and when this agreement was made4.

Coltfan1972 Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Yeah, they have to prove everything you just asked about. However, not in the initial complaint. That is what discovery and trial are for. The complaint is just to put you on notice for what they intend to prove at trial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legaleagle Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 Should they not be required to show some paperwork from Capital One Bank giving these attorneys the job of collecting this moneyNo, they do not. They can hire any lawyer they want, all he is required to provide is an appearance form with the court, you get a copy. You need to tell us the date of the last payment you made. Also, edit your post and round off the numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BV80 Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 Check Cap1's entry on your credit report. If an account is sold to a junk debt buyer, Cap1's entry will state sold or transferred somewhere in that entry. If those words are not mentioned, then Cap1 still owns the account.Regarding the cardmember agreement...the applicable agreement would be the one that was in effect when the account went into default. For instance, if you made your last payment in June, 2009, the agreement that was in effect at that time would be applicable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
