With respect to the " Type Of Loan : Factoring Company Account '' notation on my XXXX, XXXX, & XXXX report : I do not have any known type of agreement or contract in writing or otherwise with XXXX XXXX, or the alleged original creditor that creates or procures any type of Factoring of alleged monies owed, nor am I aware of any agreement or contract that XXXX XXXX XXXX has with the alleged original creditor granting them specific rights to factor the alleged monies owed.
