I have sent 3 letters requesting validation of this debt and I receive letters back stating this debt is mine and validated however I still have not received any documentation verifying this debt belongs to me and I have no knowledge of this debt. Need assistance in this matter. XXXX XXXX XXXX. Account Details Original Creditor : XXXX University Account # : XXXX Balance : {$0.00} Open Date : XX/XX/2013 I never received validation of this debt through email, phone call, United States postal service or by any other means. Therefore I am asking for written validation from the company at this present time telling me this is indeed an account that belongs to me. There is a XXXX  balance therefore there is not any money owed. VALIDATION means to provide Legal PROOF of this truth and accuracy. At this time this debt has not been validated therefore according to Under the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act, I have the right to request validation of the debt you say I owe you. I am requesting proof that I am the correct party, and there is some contractual obligation which is binding on me to pay this debt. This is NOT a request for verification via XXXX or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to the above named Title and Section of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Reporting inaccurate and unsubstantiated information to a credit reporting agency may constitute fraud under federal law. Compliance with this request is required under the laws of state and federal statutes.

Debt validation includes the following : 1. Who was the original creditor on this account, and what was the account number?

2. What was the original amount owed? Please provide a complete payment history, starting with the original creditor.

3. Please provide me documentation that indicates that I agreed to pay someone this sum of money.

4. What was the original date of delinquency for this account?

5. Agreement that grants you the authority to collect on this alleged debt, or proof of acquisition by assignment.

6. What did you pay for this account, and how did you calculate the current amount owed? I require compliance with the terms and conditions of this letter within 30 days of your certified receipt, or a complete removal from my credit profile, in writing, of your claim. In the event of noncompliance, I reserve the right to file charges and/or complaints with the FTC, and appropriate county, state, and federal authorities. I also hereby reserve my right to take private civil action against your company to recover damages. In addition, the Fair Credit Reporting Act states that while this item is being investigated you must indicate to the bureau that the account is under dispute and will remove/cease from reporting this information to the Credit Reporting Agency until full validation has been completed. Please validate this debt or have it completely removed from my credit reports My next step will be hiring an attorney to pursue a civil action against your company.
