Here is the summary so far.
I had some accounts with CAP1 that charged off. These accounts went to the standard national CA's such as Allied, NCO, etc. I DV'd all of them and eventually the accounts were assigned to a collection firm upstate. I again requested DV and also a cease and desist request. Today, I received verification of the debt from CAP1, and a letter suggesting I call them to discuss reasonable payment options.
I have some questions?
Should I assume the third-party collector (law firm) is no longer a player? Under the FDCPA, the CA is responsible for sending the DV to me. Has CAP1 retracted the debt from the law firm?
What I find interesting is that CAP1 included a statement in their letter that they will honor my cease and desist phone communication request. Well, I never sent a DV or C&D to CAP1. I've only applied the C&D to the CA's and collection law firms. What is going on here?
Should I give them a call and see what they are thinking? They are the OC. I also know that CAP1 waits a long, long time before they sell any debt and they seem to prefer to assign debt.
Any thoughts on this?
