Ya peek ya pay! http://207.41.16.152/opinions/AKF600O1.pdf Or, in the immortal words of the lawyer in this case: "Go for it Greg"!!!!!!!
Have you seen this opinion letter? http://www.ftc.gov/os/statutes/fcra/greenblt.htm In the 1990 Commentary on the FCRA, the Federal Trade Commission ("Commission") stated that "[t]he possibility that a party may be involved in litigation involving a consumer does not provide a permissible purpose for that party to receive a consumer report on such consumer . . . because litigation is not a 'business transaction' involving the consumer." 16 C.F.R. § 600 App., 55 Fed. Reg. 18804, 18816 (May 4, 1990). This statement extends to all aspects of litigation, including the pre-litigation discussions and settlement preparations that you describe, and was not altered by the recent amendments to the statute.
There is a caveat though... Does the CA still have the account which you are sueing them over? If so, then they may be able to wiggle it in under the collection purpose PP. (They wouldn't be pulling because of the suit, but because of the account that they have for you.)
keepmine, No I did not see this letter, Again thank you so much for your replies I really appreciate it I am printing these pages out now . this information will definately help me with my suit if you have any more info I would love to hear it thx fun
jam the acct was already paid and closed prior to suit being filed. so I dont see their PP in this case.
As long as it was paid, then they don't have the PP. Unless, they just recently obtained another account for you.
Hi Jam no the acct was definately paid awhile back and no I do not have any other outstanding debts that would require anything going to a CA. infact this debt was quite old and was already paid to the OC years ago, however for me to obtain my bank records to prove it was paid would costs me more to research thr mircofish then to repay the acct for deletion. 25 $ how sad I filed suit for reasons I do not wish to disclose on here at this time I can e-mail you and discuss it further. fun
Does the CA still have the account which you are sueing them over? jam237 =============== How can a CA have a paid account? [color=golden rod]Never read the fine print. There ain't no way you're going to like it.[/color]
Hi Jam just want to give you a heads up your cases helped me the CA I spoke of here just settled and paid me so I dismissed the suit thx for your help
Re: Re: Kimber case & PP Glad to hear it. Never read the fine print. There ain't no way you're going to like it.
