Consumer Narrative
Santander Consumer USA is actively engaged in abusive debt collection practices and inaccurate credit reporting against me. I have sent Santander several letters directly to resolve this matter amicably. Attached below is my most recent cease-and-desist letter and challenge letter which they received as the tracking number via USPS certified mail confirms. I ask the CFPB to ensure Santander Consumer USA deletes this account from my credit reports as it is in violation of federal laws under the FCRA and FDCPA. My attached letter outlines all the issues and violations. It is illegal for Santander to continue communicating with credit reporting agencies after receiving my cease-and-desist letter which is in there possession as of XX/XX/2021.
