Complaint:
According to the California Licensing Act Under Section 1788.52 of the California Civil code, a consumer is allowed to ask to dispute a debt at anytime a debt is being pursued in their name, not just at the very beginning of a debt purchase. Specifically, the law states " The names and addresses of all persons or entities that purchased the debt after charge off, including the debt buyer making the written statement. The names and addresses shall be in sufficient form to reasonably identify each such purchaser. '' And " A debt buyer shall provide the information or documents identified in subdivisions ( a ) and ( b ) to the debtor without charge within 15 calendar days of receipt of a debtors written request for information regarding the debt or proof of the debt. If the debt buyer can not provide the information or documents within 15 calendar days, the debt buyer shall cease all collection of the debt until the debt buyer provides the debtor the information or documents described in subdivisions ( a ) and ( b ). '' On XX/XX/2022 in the documents that were forwarded to me through the CA XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX failed to provide me with the names of all the creditors and entities that the debt they are collecting has passed through. 
according to my records, other companies had acquired the debt before XXXX XXXX XXXX. And that I requested this information originally back on XX/XX/XXXX of 2022 and have continuously asked them to provide the name of all past creditors since then. They have passed the 15 days allowed under California law to report the debt to the credit Bureaus and thus need to remove the collection till such information is provided. Also when I originally asked for all information required of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX back on XX/XX/2022 they did not respond to my debt dispute until XX/XX/2022 according to the records they sent me. That is 37 days passed since the delivery of my initial dispute letter. Which also greatly passed the 15 days they are given under California law. They were also reporting to the credit Bureaus after the 15 days had passed which is also a violation under the California Licensing act. XXXX XXXX XXXX did validate part of my debt and ca requirements by sending me a statement from the account but they continue to omit information required by California law. As such, I believe XXXX XXXX should immediately stop reporting to the credit Bureaus as they are supposed to according to the laws cited above. Until they send me a copy of all previous purchasers of the debt. It has now taken them XXXX calendar days and counting to do so which I believe is unfair.

Complaint:
I closed an account through Comenity Bank that I opened through an Ulta store in XXXX of XXXX. I had never received a card or any other info on the card after I opened it XXXX of XXXX, I believe it was. I only used it on the date I opened it. I finally received a bill from them about the time I closed the account. On XX/XX/XXXX, I paid the balance of {$64.00}. They have been contacting me about late fees on this account after I closed it. I think theyre saying now I owe over {$300.00} on an account with a balance of XXXX when I closed it. For a period of about two weeks, I was getting calls from an unknown number multiple times per day, which I didnt answer or couldnt block because the number wasnt displayed. Finally they called and left a message so I knew it was them constantly calling. The unknown calls still came several times per day. Then I got another call with a message on XX/XX/XXXX and I talked to someone on that day. They said I was two days late paying my final bill so thats why I owe this money. They kept charging me fees when I didnt have an account! I said on this call that I would pay the late fee, but they said that wasnt enough. Now its on my credit report as delinquent. The same thing is going on with a XXXX card I got through Synchrony.I closed the account, asked what the balance was, paid it and theyve been charging me fees while I dont have an account and that is now on my credit too.I always had good credit before I opened two accounts to save a little money. Is this legal? Can you help me with these two matters?
