They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out.

Complaint narrative:
It is my understanding that per 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ), my consumer report should not contain information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer ( me ) and the person ( you ) making the report. Payment history and the late payments associated with payment history negatively impacts my consumer report and are considered as part of my transactions and experiences between your company and me.

Furthermore, I am requesting that you provide me with, in writing, the reasonable procedures ( according to 15 USC 1666 ( b ) ) that you have adopted to ensure that each periodic statement is mailed to me ( the consumer ) not later than 21 days before the payment due date. Included also, all the information required by sections 1637 ( b ) of title 15.

If you do not provide this information in the allotted time given, then it will be assumed that you can not verify the late payments on the dates specified in the bottom ( lacking reasonable procedures to ensure the accuracy of my account ) and i would timefore request that you remove the late payments from my accounts and consumer report with the following consumer reporting agencies and updated the accounts to positive.

Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive notice of right to dispute
Company: National Credit Adjusters, LLC
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against National Credit Adjust/NCA regarding their collection practices, which I believe are in clear violation of my consumer rights as stipulated under relevant federal regulations.

I just discovered an entry on my credit report attributed to [ Account Number : XXXX ], indicating a debt collected by National Credit Adjust/NCA . However, to my utmost surprise, I have never received any written notification of this debt from National Credit Adjust/NCA as mandated by consumer protection laws. If National Credit Adjust/NCA believe that I was given proper notification, please provide me with a copy of the certified receipt with my signature on it. According to 12 CFR 1006.34 ( b ) ( 5 ), collection agencies are required to provide consumers with validation information upon request, yet I have not been provided with any such information.

Furthermore, National Credit Adjust/NCA has failed to give me an opportunity to dispute the account, a right guaranteed to me under 12 CFR 1006.34 ( c ) ( 4 ) ( i ). Despite repeated attempts to obtain validation information and dispute the account, I have been met with silence from National Credit Adjust/NCA .

Moreover, it is evident that National Credit Adjust/NCA has resorted to false, misleading, and deceptive means in their collection efforts, which is a direct violation of consumer protection laws. Such practices undermine the integrity of the debt collection process and infringe upon my rights as a consumer.

Additionally, National Credit Adjust/NCA has unlawfully furnished this account to consumer reporting agencies without providing me with the necessary disclosures required by law, as outlined in 12 CFR 1006.34 ( d ) and 15 USC 1681-S2 ( 7 ) ( A ).

In light of the aforementioned violations, I am formally requesting that National Credit Adjust/NCA immediately delete the entry pertaining to account number [ Account Number : XXXX ] from my credit report. I also demand that National Credit Adjust/NCA cease all collection activities related to this account until such time as they can provide the required validation information and adhere to all applicable consumer protection laws.

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to a swift resolution. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I hereby declare that I do not authorize this account due to my refusal to disclose any personal financial information to any collection agency, as it is in direct violation of the FDCPA ( Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ). Specifically, this violates FDCPA Sections 807 and 812, pertaining to false and misleading information, as well as furnishing deceptive forms.

Moreover, the agent handling this account is in violation of 15 USC 1692g, as they failed to provide written notification of this matter five days prior, as required by law. As the original creditor, I reserve the right to validate this debt, which I do not acknowledge or validate.

Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: CT

Complaint narrative:
We were recently discharged from a XXXX  XXXX XXXX. My Navient private student loans were part of that discharge. These are non-qualified private student loans, so they are not exempt from discharge under the bankruptcy code. They were taken out as direct consumer student loans, not certified by the school, and they were in excess of my scholarship and the federal student loans that covered by tuition. No further petition needs to be filed with the court for the discharge, according to the bankruptcy code any non-qualified private student loans are automatically discharged. I spoke with Navient about this and they ( aside from seeming to have very little knowledge about it ) just kept saying these are private loans and cant be discharged which is incorrect. I do have the paperwork from the court stating such as well but they refuse to alter my account and have put me back into repayment.
