Instead of the affidavit of truth, an affidavit of rescission was sent explaining the violations in my original contract where my right to rescind the contract was violated, my debt was paid for as a consumer credit transaction and not a loan. As a consumer i am not responsible for this debt and instead compensation for violations are being sought after.
