My question is what is the proper way to count the 30 days? is it 3? business days, 30 days regardless of weekends n holidays (like regular bills) or 30 days but adding on time for any holiday periods.
I know to allow for mail delays and once they recv it (provided I have a cert mail receipt) start count. ex. ca recvs letter on june 1st by my count they have until july 1st but I wld give until approx July 5th due to mail sys

Am I right by my example?
Collection agencies or credit reporting agencies? Collection agencies do not have to respond in a certain time period (unless you are in TX), you r July 1 +5 is good for CRAs. The statute says 30 days, not 30 business days :)
In Texas a collection agency must simply notify the debtor within 30 days including the validation as required, or simply telling the debtor they need more time.

And if they don't include validation, and they are reporting, they must "change the item in the relevant file as requested by the individual" - that is why you always include in a TX DV a request that they delete the info from your reports. ;)
