Im writing you today about a grave issue. My privacy rights are being invaded.

Im exercising this right under the code. Please see the following information is handled with the utmost fairness, impartiality and respect for my right to privacy.

Company: Avant Holding Company, Inc.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concern regarding the continued harassment I have experienced through repeated phone calls and emails demanding payment from Avant, despite my explicit request to cease such communication. This persistent contact, particularly after lasked not to be called or emailed, has caused significant distress and frustration. 
Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1692d and 15 U.S.C. 1692f, it is unlawful for debt collectors to engage in harassment or use unfair means to collect a debt. Additionally, 15 U.S.C. 1692c ( c ) clearly states that if a consumer requests in writing that communication cease, the collector must comply. By disregarding my request, your actions have violated my rights under this federal law.I ask that you immediately cease all communication regarding this matter, and I expect confirmation that no further harassment will occur. Additionally, I would appreciate it if this matter could be addressed fairly and without further violation of my consumer rights. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.
