The mental and emotional strain caused by these unresolved issues has been considerable.

I strongly urge you to take prompt action to investigate and correct these items, as continued failure to do so may constitute a violation of my rights under federal law.

Company: U.S. BANCORP

Complaint narrative:
Letter sent multiple times asking why these accounts were opened. 
Last one dated XX/XX/year> XXXX ( my childrens father ) did not have legal or physical rights when these trusts were open nor was he a XXXX  parent to either XXXX or XXXX when these accounts were open these accounts needed to have permission by the XXXX parent which in this case did not happen. 

In Minnesota, when parents are not married at the time of the child 's birth, the mother has sole legal and physical custody unless a court orders otherwise ( Minnesota Statutes XXXX, XXXX. XXXX ). This means the father has no XXXX rights ( legal or physical ) unless granted by a court through a custody or paternity action. A trust account opened for the benefit of a minor generally requires the involvement or consent of the XXXX XXXX XXXX or XXXX especially if it is a formal trust ( e.g., under the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act - XXXX ). If the parent opening the trust is not the legal XXXX, doing so without the custodial parents consent could be improper or even a violation of fiduciary duty. 

As XXXX Did not have legal or physical custody of XXXX or XXXX, Was not the XXXX parent when the trust accounts were opened, And acted without the permission or knowledge of the custodial parent, then these trust accounts have violated Minnesota law by opening or managing financial accounts for the children without proper authority. 

Unfortunately, on numerous occasions US Bank has broken the privacy of personal accounts which is against Minnesota law. Minnesota law ( XXXX XXXX. XXXX and XXXX ) protects personal financial data. These accounts were not owned by XXXX but released to XXXX. Which is why I need to protect myself and my

Complaint narrative:
Rent Recovery solutionsXXXX To Whom It May Concern, This letter serves as a formal follow-up to my previous Cease and Desist and Debt Validation Demand Letter regarding the above-referenced account. Despite my lawful demand made pursuant to 15 U.S.C. XXXX of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and 15 U.S.C. XXXX of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), your agency has failed to provide adequate legal validation of the alleged debt. 
Instead, you responded with a generic summary of charges or statement balance, which does not satisfy the federal requirements for debt validation. Your failure to provide the following constitutes noncompliance : XXXX. A copy of the original signed contract or agreement bearing my signature ; XXXX. A full chain of title including all assignments and transfers of the alleged debt ; XXXX. A bill of sale or purchase agreement proving legal ownership of the debt ; XXXX. Proof of licensing to collect debt in my state ; XXXX. Surety bond information ( if required by law in your jurisdiction ). 
A billing summary is NOT proof of debt ownership or legal authority to collect. Continued reporting of this unverifiable debt to credit bureaus is a violation of 15 U.S.C. XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ) ( A ) and constitutes the furnishing of inaccurate and incomplete information. 
Additionally, continued collection efforts without proper validation violate the FDCPA, specifically : 15 U.S.C. XXXX - False or misleading representations 15 U.S.C. XXXX - Unfair practices 15 U.S.C. XXXX - Failure to validate debt If this account is not permanently deleted from all consumer reporting agencies and all collection efforts do not cease within XXXX calendar days, I will proceed with legal action against your agency under 15 U.S.C. XXXX and XXXX, including but not limited to statutory damages, punitive damages, legal fees, and costs. 
This is your final opportunity to resolve this matter before I file formal complaints with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and my State Attorney General.
