Company: HW Holding, Inc
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
This company has violated my consumer rights and continue to attempt to collect on a debt by reporting it to my consumer credit report, when I do not owe any debt to this company or the original creditor and the statue of limitation is past three years to collect on this debt. Regardless if they are a third party, the same statue of limitation applies. The clock does not restart when the debt is transfer or sold to another collection agency. These are the following consumer laws I know they are violating for sure : Collection Agency has not provided validation information under 12 CFR 1006.34 ( b ) ( 5 ), not been given a chance to dispute an account according to 12 CFR 1006.34 ( c ) ( 4 ) ( I ).

Collection agency has no authority to furnish any account to a consumer reporting agencies without providing ANY and ALL disclosures required by law and they are in clear violation of 12 CFR 1006.34 ( d ) and 15 USC 1681-S 2 ( 7 ) ( A ) I attached a copy of the full complaint letter as well.

In good faith, I demand evidence of the debt, specifically the alleged contract bearing my wet signature, and proof of your authority in this matter.

I have no account with you, nor have I entered into any contract, so I require the following information : Your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ), ( f ), and ( g ).

Your legal authority to collect this information.

Your legal authority to collect the alleged debt.

Your authorization to operate in my state.

Proof of the alleged debt, including any contract with my signature.

Your continued silence is unacceptable. Please provide proof or correct the erroneous reporting of this debt with the credit agencies. 

I am currently unable to secure housing or employment due to violations on my credit file, and if you do not respond, I will initiate a small claims action for {$5000.00} in damages for defamation, negligent enablement of identity fraud, and violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
