Consumer Narrative

RANDOLPH BROOK FED CR, please be advised that you are attempting to collect on an expired debt. I am invoking my right to cease you, based on factual law that this debt in question is legally expired under the Statute of Limitations. The statute of limitations in the state of Texas is 4 years. This account was opened in XXXX of XXXX This account and debt should have been ceased as of XXXX Accordingly, I am requesting that you do not attempt to collect this expired debt, and should you seek legal recourse I will invoke my right of the expired statute as a valid defense. Additionally, any attempts to harm my credit rating by updating or changing dates after you have been informed that the debt is expired, are a direct violation of the FDCPA. Any abuse to my credit rating on your part will be met with all recourse available to me. I am aware of how long items may remain on my credit reports and any attempt to extend the reporting time will be investigated by me and reported to the XXXX XXXX XXXX and my State Attorney General. I am completely aware of how long the debt is legally collectable and how long it is legally reportable. I realize a debt is allowed to be reported to my credit for 7 years, and my research has shown me that often a collection agency will reset the date of original charge off to the date they purchased it, thus trying to extend the reporting time in an attempt to force a consumer into paying it. I noticed that the date of last payment and date last active says XXXX, which is incorrect, and I have all documents to prove otherwise. The account is due to be removed from my credit report in XXXX I am informing you of this knowledge so that you may do the right thing. I have no intention of renewing the expired statute of limitations, and I expect the following account to be deleted from my credit report within 7 days : RANDOLPH BROOK FED XXXX.
