Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB Representative, I am writing to file a formal complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX and Omni Financial for multiple violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). The details of my complaint are as follows : Background Information : Account/Reference Number : XXXX Date of Initial Debt Validation Request : XX/XX/2024 Date of Follow-Up Communication : XX/XX/2024 Entities Involved XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Omni Financial XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XX/XX/2024, I sent a formal request for debt validation to XXXX XXXX XXXX  regarding XXXXhe above-referenced account, in compliance with FDCPA, XXXX U.S.C. XXXX ( b ). This statute requires that debt collectors provide debt validation within 30 days of the request and cease collection activities until such validation is provided. XXXX XXXX XXXX failed to respond within this legally mandated timeframe. 

Following this, on XX/XX/2024, I sent another communication to both XXXX XXXX XXXX and Omni Financial, emphasizing their non-compliance and demanding corrective action. Despite my clear and repeated requests, both companies failed to provide the necessary debt validation. This constitutes a clear violation of FDCPA, 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ). 

Additionally, both XXXX XXXX XXXX and Omni Financial have continued to report erroneous information on my credit report, which is a violation of the FCRA. Specifically, 15 U.S.C. 1681i requires credit bureaus to investigate disputed information, and 15 U.S.C. 1681b limits the purposes for which consumer information can be obtained. Their failure to validate the debt and their continued reporting of inaccurate information demonstrate a willful disregard for these statutes.

UCC-11 Search Results : I conducted a UCC-11 search with the State Secretary of Florida, which revealed no debts recorded under my name. This search, authorized under the Uniform Commercial Code ( UCC ), further confirms that the debt in question is not valid and that both companies have likely obtained my personal information illegally. 

Violations : Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) : 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ) : Failure to provide debt validation within 30 days.

15 U.S.C. 1692e : False or misleading representations.

15 U.S.C. 1692f : Unfair practices.

Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : 15 U.S.C. 1681b : Improper access to consumer information.

15 U.S.C. 1681i : Failure to investigate disputed information.

15 U.S.C. 1681c : Inaccurate information in consumer reports.

15 U.S.C. 1681n : Civil liability for willful noncompliance.

15 U.S.C. 1681o : Civil liability for negligent noncompliance.
