Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports

I originally wrote to Department of EducationXXXX XXXX XX/XX/year> to Validate the alleged Debt Pursuant to 15 USC 1692g .

I told them, it was not a refusal to pay, but a notice sent pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g stating your claim is disputed and validation is requested. 


I told them it was NOT a request for verification or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to the above-named Title and Section. I respectfully requested their offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay them. 


At that time, I also informed them that if their offices have reported invalidated information to any of the XXXX major credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX or TransUnion ) this action XXXX constitute fraud under both Federal and State Laws. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found on any of my credit reports by their company or the company they represent, I will not hesitate in bringing legal action against them for the following : violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, and Defamation of Character ( per se ).

I told them if their offices are able to provide the proper documentation as requested in the following Declaration, I will require at least 30 days to investigate this information, during which time all collection activity shall CEASE and Desist. Also, during the validation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with my legal counsel for suit. This included any listing of my information to a credit reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalidated. 


I told them if their office failed to respond to the validation request within 30 days from the date of receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file, and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately. 



The Following information was required. I requested them to fill out a form i sent in its entirety.

I said their claim can not and WILL NOT be considered if any portion of this form is not completed and returned with copies of all requested documents.

By the way, if you ever decide to turn this alleged debt over to an attorney to collect and violate my rights under the FDCPA 15USC 1692 even further, just keep in mind that an attorney can not be a debt collector and a debt collector can not be an attorney.

They still did not responded. Not only that, they have not removed the unverifiable account from my report, they are still reporting to third party companies without my written instructions ( Permissible Purpose ), per the law and am still receiving communication via email requesting payment for the alleged debt. 


Under 15 USC 1681b - permissible purpose of consumer reports, THE LAW CLEARLY STATES : ( b ) IN GENERAL Subject to subsection ( c ) any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) In accordance with the WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS OF THE CONSUMER to whom it relates.

Under 15 USC 1692g They were to notify me of this in writing 5 days prior to address ownership, publication and validation of the alleged debt. I was not. As the original creditor, only I can validate a debt. I do not validate this debt. 

The reporting of this account is a violation of 15 USC 1681, and the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
