This is it. No any supporting documentation. Only this letter.
Is that valid and proper validation?
And what I should do next?
Please, advise. Any help will be greatly appreciated

Hi Mefisto04

You could ask them for a copy of the original agreement between you and the original creditor and a copy of the agreement between them and the OC that the debt has been transferred to them. If you wish you may even contact your OC and ask them f they have at all transferred the debt to this collection agency or not.

Hi Mefisto04.

I am in exactly the same situation. About a year ago, I sent a DV letter to a CA and received a response very similar to yours. Naturally, the question was, what recourse do I have? Can I sue the CA for violation of the FDCPA? I surely could use 1000 dollars in damages. What is the legal status of debt validation uder the FDCPA? I even started a thread on the topic in this forum.

First, the bad news. The threshold for debt validation under the FDCPA is very low. Much lower, in fact, than many people here seem to think it is. The FDCPA itself says nothing about what a proper debt validation should look like. Hence, it appears that the issue has been left to the courts. And we have decisions from the 2nd, 4th, 7th, and 9th Circuits that all make it plain that there is no requirement for an extensive laundry list of documentation to be provided. The 4th Circuit Court of Appeals had this to say about it:

"Verification of a debt involves nothing more than the debt collector confirming in writing that the amount being demanded is what the creditor is claiming is owed; the debt collector is not required to keep detailed files of the alleged debt."

I even consulted with an attorney specializing in federal litigation about this. He would not take the case because, in view of the already established precedents, he felt I had no case.

Dismal, I know. So what can we do?

Well, here's the good news. Even though I am not going to sue for violations of the FDCPA, the letter that the CA sent is useful. You see, the reason why the CA did not provide detailed information is because they do not have any. Therefore, they do not dare to sue me for the amount they claim is owed, because I will get a dismissal in a New York minute. Contract law 101: no contract, no debt. So, we have this deadlock situation and I will simply wait for the derogatory entries on my credit reports to someday expire. Meanwhile, I have filed complaints about this CA with various agencies: the FTC, ACA, and the state Attorney General for all the good it will do.

Your case appears to be even simpler. It looks like your alleged debt might be beyond the SOL. If so, then if the CA files suit, you put in a motion for dismissal on those grounds.

Hope this helps.

buy your RAST test done. Get a spot test done. Cross examine both leads, Remove culprits. take them of permanently and don give up if reversal doesn happen quickly. If are able to afford either of those tests, Repeat food culprits are: drinking, dairy products, Gluten, Nightshade, ingrown toenail, ovum, nut products, enhanced sugary trash. It actually possible to remove all of those from a diet and still eat balanced (although i).

contemplate probiotics. facilitate more vitamin D. other water (2 3 litres a day). Bed before you start 10pm (Sleep during the hours of 10pm 2am releases huge anti-inflammatory hormones). A LOT of cardio to keep lymphatic system system moving.

As far as topical responses, attempt Protopic/Tacrolimus. Stay away from steroids as much as possible. Avoid exposure to wind chill.

It not a technical reason but rather an amazing one. The M to be sure it was born as the Myrtle Ave El which ran from the Brooklyn Bridge to Wyckoff Ave. The reason it wasn extended further is obvious once you think of it: Brooklyn and Queens weren yet section of the same city. The Brooklyn Rapid Transit Co didn have the rights of building lines in places that weren Brooklyn and Wyckoff is the border. At Wyckoff Av it had a trolley that continued northeast to the major cemeteries in Middle Village.

Cemeteries in the late 19th Century were accepted more as parks than they are today. You would take your family out of the city and walk through the quiet, landcaping cemetery to spend the afternoon. It wasn abnormal to see families having picnics there, Maybe next to the grave of a past dear relative. on top, If you needed to get lots of to a funeral and you didn have private automobiles then a train would be the next best option.

So in 1898 the city combined, Brooklyn and Queens were now part of the better NYC. Queens at that point was still mostly farmland with some major towns spread about, The largest were LIC which included Astoria, purging yourself of, or Jamaica. Part ukraine wife of the reason for consolidation was so services like transit could be spread throughout the city. Once the first subway proved popular the city and private companies began planning extensions. Queens saw some brand new lines in Astoria and to Corona but this also gave the BRT the power to extend their Brooklyn lines. So that train line to the cemetery was elevated and was crowned the end of the M train.

But why didn it go any more? Because there wasn any reason to supply it. Central Queens took years to build the way it is now; Even into the 1950s there were undeveloped farm lands in central Queens. Because pre expanded areas like Astoria, purging and Jamaica already had demand they saw service first. Keep in mind these lines were build by private companies scheming to make money. You can build a line into a corn field and hope it will be developed or you can build a line to where people already are and start earning money from.

There was once a plan to get in touch each end of the M. But just not as you imagining it. In 1929 the IND Second System offered miles of new lines and one was a very serpentine route through Maspeth and Middle Village from Roosevelt Ave to Central Av. 2 express tracks might have run to Manhattan along East Broadway and Worth St to 8th Ave, 2 local tracks will have continued to downtown Brooklyn via the Crosstown Line. In Glendale this central Queens branch may well joined up and as a trunk may run out to Ozone Park and the Rockaways. At Roosevelt Ave we have an abandoned upper level terminal that was built for this line but the line was never pursued and dropped a decade later.

Maspeth and Middle hamlet are stuck, competently, in the centre. while they never had a subway to connect them to Manhattan they never developed the density to one. Until 20 years ago the vast majority of subway riders were trying to get into Manhattan but with technology the way we work has changed. Now you see a growth in non new york based commuting. In this sense a major reason why the M was never attached to itself was that there wasn demand for it until recently.
