Product: Debt collection — Other debt
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive notice of right to dispute
Company: I.C. System, Inc.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I recently saw my credit report as I was thinking about purchasing a home and noticed a collection account that I was unaware of as I did not receive any notice to dispute or to verify this debt which I believe is a violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). IC System is reporting this false information on my consumer report without verifying it first which also violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I demand that this agency provides valid proof that they have sent me the notice by providing a certified green return card with my signature and the shipping number of the notice. Additionally, I demand that they answer the attached dispute letter line by line in order to both validate and verify this information. If they can not provide all requested information then I demand that this company cease all reporting immediately as the attached letter states. Lastly, pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( c ) failure to dispute the validity of a debt does NOT mean admission. How can I, the consumer dispute this alleged debt when I never received a notice?
