Written notification XX/XX/year> to XXXXXXXX XXXX requesting original loan information proving that I owed the debt. Received response back without the information requested and legal representative insisted that the debt reporting to bureaus is accurate and would not be removed.

Complaint narrative:
THIS IS A NEW COMPLAINT WITH NEW INFORMATION. 

An official validation letter was mailed to the address listed on your website on XX/XX/XXXX, and shown to be delivered on XX/XX/XXXX, to the " Front Desk/Reception/Mail Room ''. Even after filing a CFPB complaint, the company failed to validate this debt properly. The company 's response does not come close to the validation requested in the same letter attached to this complaint nor by what the CFPB considers validation. Merely citing a social security number and providing the balance amount, which I provided in my previous complaint, is not validation. This account shows a last activity date of XX/XX/XXXX, for XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, for XXXX. The account was either changed, updated, or opened/closed in XX/XX/XXXX, or it wasn't -- the same for XX/XX/XXXX. There can't be two dates for the same account. The FCRA states that all reported accounts need to be verifiable and timely. If these dates hold true, which I assume they are, this constitutes that this account is NOT timely and may have violated the FCRA. Your failure to provide proper validation may have also violated the FDCPA. As a consumer, I am entitled to a credit file that is 100 % accurate, timely, and verifiable, which this account is not.
