Hmmm, the law is only a guideline... Yeah, right... The scary thing is that the majority of consumers would actually BELIEVE them when they say this.
File complaint with FTC and your AG that they claim they have no obligation to investigate within 30 days. The CRAs have been penalized and fined for not responding to calls on their 800 numbers fast enough, which actually is a "guideline".
Re: Re: tu above the law?(KINDA LONG) So that means I don't have to stop at red lights and stop signs since the law is only a guideline. How stupid can thes people get.?
Re: Re: tu above the law?(KINDA LONG) I will file a comnplaint with both for sure. Whatever it takes to make tu understand they cant push us around
Re: Re: tu above the law?(KINDA LONG) filed the complaint with the ftc yesterday,and am headed to the courthouse todat.
Re: Re: Re: tu above the law?(KINDA LONG) Got a response back from the ftc about my compalint against tu. They said they cannot intervene on any disputes or problems with a cra. They said if I had a problem I should consult an attorney so much for the ftc being worth a crap
The FTC doesn't investigate individual complaints. Our goal with reporting to the FTC is that eventually they get enough complaints that they DO investigate. Keep reporting each and every complaint.
