Consumer Narrative
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX pursued collection and filed multiple lawsuits against me even after receiving my Cease & Desist, Hardship Notice, Affidavit of Indigence, and Social Security Disability ( SSDI ) Verification. My only income is federally protected SSDI, which is exempt from collection under 42 U.S.C. 407. Despite receiving all hardship and indigence documentation, the firm continued initiating litigation on several accounts. They also used duplicate internal file numbers across different cases, causing confusion and preventing me from understanding which account was being pursued. I requested written confirmation that all collection and litigation activity would stop due to my protected SSDI status and that they had updated their records, but I never received any response. Litigation continued, and new filings were made even after notice of indigence. I am asking the CFPB to require the firm to cease collection efforts, correct their records, provide the confirmations I requested, and ensure no further legal action is taken on my protected SSDI income.
