Consumer complaint received 2022-10-04
Company: Roosen, Varchetti & Olivier, PLLC
State: GA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
I recently received a debt collection letter from Roosen, Varchetti & Oliver - GA PLLC dated XX/XX/XXXX, claiming I owe a debt from XXXX with a total amount due of {$1000.00}. They claim to be representing XXXX XXXX as XXXX of XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for an account ending in XXXX. 

Please consider this complaint as my formal dispute of this debt. I have never had any such account and do not have any outstanding/delinquent debts and have not had any such account number associated with my name or with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 

Further, I resided at the same address the letter was sent to since XXXX, XXXX and have never received any claims, bills, or correspondence for any such debt from any of the aforementioned company names as required under the FDCPA. 

Roosen, Varchetti & Oliver - GA PLLC should hereby be put on notice that I dispute this debt. They are required to comply with the law and requirements thereunder. 

I have also consulted with a GA attorney who advised that I file this formal complaint in an attempt to resolve this matter. Should this not immediately resolve the matter, I will be retaining the attorney and filing legal action to resolve and will request all attorney 's fees as I am entitled under the law for these attempted debt collection violation efforts. 

As indicated, I was never notified of any such debt and strongly believe this information is inaccurate. Under the FDCPA, I have the right to receive validation of any debt being claimed I owe. I would like the following information so that I can be fully informed : *Name and address of creditor to whom debt is currently owed, account number and amount. If this debt started with a different creditor, please provide the name and address of original creditor, their account number, and amount owed to creditor at the time the debt was transferred. 
*Provide a copy of the written agreement that created my original requirement to pay. 
*Provide a copy of the last billing statement sent to me by the original creditor. 
*State the amount of the debt when this firm obtained it, and when that was. 
*Itemization of any additional interest, fees or charges added since last billing statement from original creditor showing dates and amounts for each added amount. In addition, please provide explanation how the added fees are expressly authorized by agreement creating the debt or are permitted by law. 
*Tell me when the creditor claims this debt became due and when it became delinquent. 
*Identify the date of the last payment made on this account. 
*Confirmation that this debt is within the statute of limitations applicable to it and when this firm thinks the statute of limitations expires for this debt and how that was determined. 

I would also like more information about this firm before discussing the matter further. Does this firm have a GA debt collection license? What is the license number, name license is under, address and telephone number of the state agency issuing the license. I will need a copy of said license. 

Again, I believe this debt to be inaccurate and not belong to me. I have an extremely common name and monitor my credit daily. I have no knowledge of any such account. 

I need to receive the documentation requested to make an informed decision on how to proceed. I plan to resolve this to the fullest extent under the law. In the meantime, please treat this debt as being in dispute and under discussion. 

I look forward to your prompt attention to this matter.
