On XX/XX/XXXX I was contacted by XXXX XXXX XXXX stating that I owed a payday loan from XXXX ( they said XXXX had bought out several other payday loan companies and were just now collecting the debt ) from XX/XX/XXXX. They stated that unless I paid that day they would charge me with fraud and I would be served with a summons either at home or at work to go to court. They had all my personal information including my social security number. In my profession it would hurt my job if they were to come to my place of work .They caught me off guard and scared me to death. My husband and I paid the {$1000.00} dollars. At this time XXXX XXXX sent me a document through e-mail that I had paid the loan off in full. This is a document that I could have typed up myself. There is nothing that suggests that this is an official document from a legitimate company. I have received no documentation from them concerning this debt. Then I went to my bank and talked with them. They advised me that it was probably a scam and I had fraud protection on my account. I canceled my debit card and reported it to the fraud department at my bank. They are investigating it now. Yesterday XX/XX/XXXX, I received another call from XXXX XXXX XXXX because my bank canceled the {$1000.00}. They said I had to pay then or I would be served with a summons at my home or job. They also said by then I would have to pay for legal representation, court costs and interest on the loan so it would be better to pay now. I have asked over and over for documentation that I owe this money. I also asked for a copy of the original contract from the original company. I have yet to receive any documentation or an address and phone for XXXX. I have tried to find a number on the internet for this company but the numbers I do find are not working. I also XXXX the address for XXXX XXXX XXXX and it is an address for a shipping company. I did take out some payday loans years ago ( stupidly ) because we were in a financial crisis, but I know I paid them all back. I have told them I would gladly pay if they could show me some documentation, but XXXX XXXX just said they would send the information on to XXXX.

My student loans had gone in default and were transferred to a collection company- back in 2018 I setup a payment plan to bring those out of default but the old information still shows on my credit report. In addition that company helped me consolidate my debt owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX into my loans that are out of default and back to being processed through XXXX XXXX and are currently deferred due to Covid 19. The XXXX old account information still shows on my report as well. This year I submitted a new fasfa and tried to reenroll at XXXX.

After I submitted a complaint with you I noticed my consolidated loan balance went to XXXX rather than XXXX refunding the money to me during a current hardship as a XXXX XXXX. I decided not to reenroll at the college due to a multitude of troubles that I endured while registering and with the financial aid awards being different than what I had been told in correspondence from fasfa. All the old holders of my loans before transferred or while in default are still showing also.

I am not aware that there is a debt from Nationwide Recovery Services, I am also unaware of the amount due and your Derogatory Remark does not include a breakdown of any fees.

Additionally, I am allowed under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ( HIPAA ) to protect my privacy and medical records from third parties. I do not recall giving permission to Nationwide Recovery Services for them to release my medical information to a third party. I am aware that the HIPAA does allow for limited information about me but anything more is to only be revealed with the patients authorization. Therefore, my request is this : Validation of debt HIPAA authorization signed by myself.

Provide breakdown of fees including any collection costs and medical charges.

Provide a copy of my signature with the provider of service to release my medical information to you.

Cease any credit bureau reporting until the debt has been validated by me.

Your Company and the Medical Professional/Company that Contracted you are in Violation of these laws among others : Subtitle D of ARRA Sec. 13401 ( Application of Security Provisions and Penalties to Business Associates of Covered Entities ) Subtitle D of ARRA Section 13407 ( 1 ) - ( Breach of Security ).

Please send this information to my address listed above and accept this letter as my formal debt validation request, which I am allowed under the FDCPA. Please note that withholding the information you received from any medical provider in an attempt to be HIPAA compliant can be a violation of the FDCPA because you will be deceiving me after my written request.

Additionally, any reporting of this debt to the credit bureaus prior to allowing me to validate it may be a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, which can allow me to seek damages from a collection agent up to {$5000.00} per incident plus costs. I will await your reply with above requested proof.

I am writing concerning my wife and I auto loan with US Auto Credit. Since XX/XX/XXXX, my wife and I have been with this company and financed two auto loans with them. One of the vehicles was paid off early in XX/XX/XXXX timeframe which they gouge us for extra money. Which they pretty much charged us full interest as if it was not paid in full two years early. Secondly, since we have been with this company all our payments have been made on time and no missed payments. The issue that my wife and I have is they constantly harass us over a car payment every single month. With excellent payment history as being reported by our three credit bureaus report. Why are they harassing us monthly over payments? 

Furthermore, on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX they called my contact number of XXXX. I told the person that I spoke to who asked XXXX questions to verify my identity of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that you get your payment every month and stop calling or harassing. Which I also asked what my total balance is. They said it is {$1500.00} I told them when the final payment is made. I will harass or call them every day until I get my title to the vehicle. So, they can see how ridiculous it is to do something like this. Lastly, I have provided proof of payment made on XX/XX/XXXX for {$300.00} along with a receipt acknowledging the payment. On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX they sent an email listed as XXXX XXXX payment is due.

On XXXX of 2020, I reached out to XXXX regarding my credit card ending in XXXX & made a payment over the phone. At the time my account was a few days past due ( but less than 30 days ) so I incurred a late fee, which they were nice enough waive. I inquired if they offered a hardship program, they offered a 3 month deferred plan which I accepted. A few weeks later, I got an alert from a credit monitoring service ( XXXX ) notifying me of a late payment reported on XXXX of 2020 by XXXX. I called them immediately and disputed the late payment, they told me it was a mistake & it would be removed. Till this day when I call they agree to the situation but can not send me a letter to the removal of the late payment. I was enrolled in a hardship program with them that was 3 months long.
