A copy of the original contract or agreement bearing my signature or any agreement that you believe makes me liable for this debt ; XXXX.

The name and address of the current creditor if different from the original ; XXXX. A copy of your license to collect debts in New York. 

Under the FDCPA, you are required to cease collection activity until you provide proper validation of this debt. Reporting this debt to the credit bureaus without validating it may be a violation of federal law.

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
This COMPLAINT serves as a formal follow-up to my previous complaint submitted last month regarding inaccurate and damaging information being reported on my credit file. I am requesting your immediate assistance in launching a formal investigation into the reporting of a late payment that I categorically deny.

I have never been late on the account ( s ) in question. I have always made my payments on time and have maintained a responsible credit history. The inclusion of any late payment ( s ) on my credit report is inaccurate and a clear reporting error, either by your agency or the original creditor.

This inaccurate information is causing me significant distress and has already resulted in a wrongful denial of credit, which was not only financially damaging but personally embarrassing. As you are no doubt aware, credit bureaus are legally obligated to ensure the accuracy of consumer data under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).
