Is this an FCRA violation?

    A CA was assigned to collect a debt
    The debt was still owned by the OC.
    So i paid the debt in full directly to OC
    The then CA refuses to acknowledge the debt is paid
    I sent the proof to the CRA's and the CA
    30 days later 2 out of 3 CRA's deleted it.

    However, 30 days later I also get a letter from the CA saying they recieved and accepted my payment and demand i send them another payment. I NEVER paid them, nor did the OC forward any payment to them. The debt is paid in full to the real owners of the debt the OC. It's closed.

    By the CA lying about me paying them, and demanding i pay them more isn't that viewed as "continued collection activity" on a closed account?

    Did you settle with the OC for less than the full balance? If so, did you get it in writing?

    Nope I paid it in full to the OC, and yes i have the receipt showing a $0.00 balance. I sent this letter to all 3 CRA's and to the Collection folks as well...twice. They know it's been paid for well over 60 days now and still sent me a letter saying i owe them money.
