    I had a CA send me a letter back saying that they cannot delete with payment according to appendix C of FCRA. " Engaging in credit bartering, or deleting negative information in exchange for payment is violation of" the FCRA. NO DELETION. I haven't seen this before, any ideas? I look up FCRA but I can't find any Appendix C.

    Oh thats too funny! Tell em to read Appendix D.
    Thats the one that says CA's must attend 12 hours of BS class, and 6 hours of stupidity training before they are allowed to make one harassing phone call.

    Appendix C is a figment of a creative CA's imagination. It probably works well - until you come up against us!

    Appendix D is the smart a$$ coming out in me.


    Who is the CA?

    Well I have to give him credit for using his imagination. Especially for only $69 medical bill. So now I go to the OC and HIPPA him and then Mr. Smarty Pants gets O-nadda- nothimg

    Oh this is awesome!!!

    I've been waiting for one of these.


    § 807. False or misleading representations [15 USC 1962e]

    A debt collector may not use any false, deceptive, or misleading representation or means in connection with the collection of any debt.



    You now have it in writing.

    To insist that removing a TL from ones CR is illegal, is in fact a violation.

    LOL

    It might have been more believable if they hadn't misspelled 6 words in their letter.

    HA!!!! That's great - I used to be an English teacher so it cracks me up when someone is attempting to be intimidating and "lawyer-like" but don't even have enough brains to use spell check! Funny stuff - in your next letter to them you should include a copy of their letter and make spelling corrections in red ink...

    Excuse me, that should've have been "doesn't" rather than "don't"... I like to use improper grammar after admitting I'm a former teacher... =) Guess I've been in Oklahoma too long.

    I thought this just came natural to them without any training.
