Complaint:
This letter is being sent to you in response to notices sent to / from me from the Dept of Edu/ XXXX and more importantly, due to their erroneous reporting to the Credit Bureau { s }, the highly negative impact on my personal credit report. Please be advised that this is not a refusal to pay, but a notice sent pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC1692g Sec. 809 { b } that their claim has been disputed and validation was requested. I have asked the Dept of Edu/ XXXX  to please provide me with the following : What the money they say I owe is for Explain and show me how they calculated what they said I owe Provide me with copies of any papers that show I agreed to pay what they say I owe Provide a verification or copy of any judgment if applicable Identify the original creditor Prove the Statute of Limitations has not expired on this account Show me the you they are licensed to collect in my state Provide me with their license numbers and Registered Agent or Agent of Service At this time, I also informed XXXX that if their offices have reported invalidated information to any of the 3 major Credit Bureaus { XXXX  , XXXX  or TransUnion } this action might 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 that they represent, I will not hesitate to bring legal action against them for the following : Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act Defamation of Character XXXX provided the following documentation A statement summary of my account 4 Master Promissory Notes that DO NOT have my signature on them. 

Since reaching out to XXXX, action was taken which has been detrimental to all 3 of my credit reports, and I am consulting with my legal counsel for suit. 

The information provided by Dept of Edu / XXXX includes information that is inaccurate and invalidated, but the credit bureaus have been verifying these accounts as accurate, when in fact there is no provided proof that it is accurate. The company Dept of Edu/ XXXX has failed to respond to this validation request and the information provided in the Master Promissory Note must be deleted and completely removed from my credit report and a copy of such deletion { to any/all of the 3 major credit reporting bureaus : XXXX , XXXX  and TransUnion } should be sent to me immediately. I have also disputed this information with the 3 credit bureaus as inaccurate, and they have come back to me and stated they were able to verify this debt. How is this possible? Under the laws of the FDCPA, I have contacted the collection agency myself and have been unable to get them to verify that this is indeed my debt!
