Company: CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint against [ Credit Acceptance Corporation ] for engaging in improper and deceptive debt collection practices. The alleged debt in question was securitized as part of Credit Acceptance Auto Loan Trust XXXX XXXX and based on publicly available documentation, the creditor has relinquished ownership and legal rights to this debt through the securitization process.

Despite this, [ Credit Acceptance Corporation ] continues to pursue collection activities, including : 1. Reporting the alleged debt to credit bureaus, damaging my credit profile.

2. Sending collection notices claiming ownership of the debt.

3. Failing to provide verification or evidence of ownership of the debt despite my dispute.

Under the principles of securitization, the debt is now owned by the trust and its investors, and [ Creditor Acceptance ] no longer has the legal standing to collect on this debt. Their actions are in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which protect consumers from deceptive and unlawful collection practices.
