Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Problem with personal statement of dispute
Company: Bull City Financial Solutions, Inc (AR)

I previously checked my consumer credit report in efforts to monitor complete accuracy. I noticed the furnishing of a collections account by, BullCity Financial SOL ( acct # XXXX ), which I realized was a fraudulent account. 

Understanding my rights have been violated. 

This is the ( 2nd ) time I've disputed this debt. The first dispute was on { XX/XX/year> } with { XXXX } and the second was on { XX/XX/year> } with { XXXX }. Be advised that neither collection agency responded to my dispute. 
In accordance with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, Section 809 ( b ) : Validating Debts : ( b ) If the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period described in subsection ( a ) that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, or that the consumer requests the name and address of the original creditor, the debt collector shall cease collection of the debt, or any disputed portion thereof, until the debt collector obtains verification of the debt or any copy of a judgment, or the name and address of the original creditor, and a copy of such verification or judgment, or name and address of the original creditor, is mailed to the consumer by the debt collector. 
I respectfully request that you provide me with the following information : ( XXXX ) the amount of the debt ; ( XXXX ) the name of the creditor to whom the debt is owed ; ( XXXX ) Provide a verification or copy of any judgment ( if applicable ) ; ( XXXX ) Proof that you are licensed to collect debts in ( North Carolina ) Be advised that I am fully aware of my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Fair Credit Reporting Act. For instance, I know that : because I have disputed this debt in writing within 30 days of receipt of your dunning notice, you must obtain verification of the debt or a copy of the judgment against me and mail these items to me at your expense ; you can not add interest or fees accept those allowed by the original contract or state law. 
you do not have to respond to this dispute but if you do, any attempt to collect this debt without validating it, violates the FDCPA ; Be advised that I am keeping very accurate records of all correspondence from you and your company including recording all phone calls and I will not hesitate to report violations of the law to my State Attorney General, the Federal Trade Commission and the XXXX XXXX XXXX 
I have disputed this debt ; therefore, until validated you know your information concerning this debt is inaccurate. Thus, if you have already reported this debt to any credit-reporting agency ( CRA ) or Credit Bureau ( CB ) then, you must immediately inform them of my dispute with this debt. Reporting information that you know to be inaccurate or failing to report information correctly violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act 1681s-2. Should you pursue a judgment without validating this debt, I will inform the judge and request the case be dismissed based on your failure to comply with the FDCPA. 
If you do NOT own the rights to collect this debt, I demand that you immediately send a copy of this dispute letter to the original creditor that you say I owe money too so they are also aware of my dispute with this debt. 

Thank you for your time, XXXX XXXX
