| FCRA Question Lets say I disputed a debt within the 30 days and never recieved validation of the debt. I later dispute this on my CR and its marked-consumer disputes.
Now the JDB send this account to 5 other company's including an attorney I dispute they never validate.
Is this not enough to prove willful?

Is this not enough to prove willful? | How many times have you disputed with the CRA's?

| By marking your credit file as disputing the account, the JDB has knowledge that there is an outstanding dispute.
By sending the account to other CA's or attorneys for prosecution, the have committed violations of the FDCPA.
The JDB is, IMHO obligated to notify each successive CA it sends your file to of your dispute. Then, if the succeeding CA chooses to dun you then they do so at their peril.
By noting the file as being disputed, the JDB has complied with the FCRA.

| If you disputed the debt directly with the JDB, then sue them for continued collection activity.

| I disputed the acct when they first bought it a year and half ago.
I have disputed this at least 2 times with the CRA's. They all have been online disputes, working on doing a hard pull and dispute. |

Tell them you requested that the JDB validate and verify the debt. To date they have remained silent. Since the JDB has been unresponsive they cannot maintain their reporting.
But your main avenue for redress is going to be the FDCPA unless you have actual damages.
Does your state require JDB to be licensed/registered?

| yes. Im in Florida
one of them is not licensed but thier parent company is.
I will give an example so I can make sure I am saying this correctly.
Company A is the parent company (they are lic.) they have company B and C.
Company b bought the account (they aren't Lic) they assigned it to company c (they aren't lic.) who sued me.
I asked this question when first sued and there were conflicting answers, since the parent company was licensed.
The other company, I don't remember but am assuming they are. The are a major JDB. |
