| IMHO, that is excessive but you'd have to prove it is so in a court of law. Off the top of my head and with little sleep, I don't recall any caselaw to this effect but there may be. Does NCO own any paper you owe or are they attempting to collect?

| They need a permissible purpose to pull, such as attempting to collect, right? |

There has been some discussion of pulling of reports when a JDB is thinking of buying debts you owe...however, while that may be a legitimate business need for the JDB, I am not sure whether or not it can be done for that purpose (arguably due diligence) especially if the JDB doesn't end up buying the paper.

| I kept receiving calls and bills from NCO for medical accounts from a Hospital that didnt exist. I disputed with the CRA's and then sent certified cease and desist letters to NCO. It looks like every time I dealt with their nonsense, they pulled my report. I did get 3 accounts deleted tho.
I dont have time to pursue this in court, but I am concerned if these inquiries have lowered my score. |

| You sent C & D's. Did you request them to validate the debt and then dispute with the CRAs?
