Complaint narrative:
More than several times this company has been toying with my credit reports and listing and delisting this collection account on my credit report i have complained several times to this agency about their illegal practices, at this juncture I will like this company to be reported to the FTC ( PORTFOLIO RECOVERY ASSOCIATES ) for abusive practices, and numerous violations of FDCPA rules. In a previous complaint number XXXX that has been closed, the company removed the false reporting from the credit bureaus but continued to send me notices and i responded to their notices the same way i have in the past they have then said they have already responded to me and now considered this matter closed, but again i check my XXXX  credit report today XX/XX/2020 and see they have AGAIN resisted and placed this collection item back on my credit report after the removal It seems that PRA only removed the item to have the original complaint closed only to relist it again on my credit report. The LAST LETTER i received from PRA was DATED XX/XX/2020 and not even 2 weeks later they are again reporting this false item on my report without even waiting 30 days for a response yet again another violation from this agency, and when i do respond they are basically telling my response will fall on deaf ears as they now consider the matter closed. I have no debt with THIS collection agency. I have not agreed to the " assignment '' of the debt in writing or verbally. I have not received goods or services ( consideration ) from this collection agency. Your agency has sent a letter deeming this matter closed as your agency removed the account from my report and to date I find it relisted for the more than fifth time on XX/XX/2020, I will be taking more aggressive action against your agency, If your ( PRA ) agency fails to immediately remove fraudulent reporting on my credit reports which will result in a suit for monetary damages. I request that you and your agency provide me with the following good and valid evidence that is provable in a court of law : 1 ) a valid copy of the original SIGNED contract with the original creditor or an original written confirmation of evidencing the transaction resulting in the indebtness to the original creditor. Computer documents or a bill or electronic evidence created after default on the indebtedness shall not qualify as such documentation. 2 ) a valid copy of the original statements from the original creditor showing the balance amount of the debt owing ; 3 ) A letter/contract of assignment attached with proof from the original creditor to PORTFOLIO RECOVERY ASSOCIATES, LLC that grants PORTFOLIO RECOVERY ASSOCIATES, LLC the authority to legally collect on the debt ; I have not agreed to the " assignment '' of the debt in writing or verbally. 4 ) Proper and complete written notice concerning the debt ; 5 ) Valid proof from the original creditor of my clear consent to disclose my personal and business information to your agency a third party.
