I.C. Systems sent me an email stating that I owe a debt. I contacted the company to figure out what the debt was and why I owe it. The person I spoke to stated that he did not have that information, but that the company was hired to collect the debt. I've explained to him multiple times that I'd like to see proof of the debt and why I owe it. The company continues to attempt to collect the debt, but will not send me any information about the debt.Business Response

To whom this may concern:I am writing to formally demand that you immediately cease and desist from all communication with me regarding any alleged debt you claim I owe. Furthermore, I demand that you cease all reporting of this alleged debt to any credit reporting agencies. This request is made pursuant to my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), 15 U.S.C. 1692c(c), which grants me the right to request that a debt collector stop all communication with me.If you believe this debt is valid, you are required to provide verification of the debt in accordance with 15 U.S.C. 1692g. If you cannot validate the debt, you must remove any negative reporting from my credit file immediately.Additionally, if you have already reported this debt to any credit bureau, I demand that you take immediate action to retract and remove the reporting from my credit history. Failure to comply with this request may result in legal action against you for violations of federal and state consumer protection laws.Please confirm in writing that you have received this notice and that you will comply with my request. Any further attempt to contact me regarding this matter will be considered a violation of the ****** and I will not hesitate to take further legal action to protect my rights.Business Response

IC Systems, **** has reported two separate collection accounts on my credit report. Upon contacting their office, I was informed by a representative that they have held these collection accounts for over 500 days. Despite this, I was never contacted through any effective or verifiable means. The representative claimed they attempted contact using a phone number associated with a U.S. Cellular account that I have not used in over five years. Furthermore, they did not have a valid email address or a current physical address for me on file.When I inquired about their efforts to notify me of the debt and requested more information, I was met with vague responses and no explanation as to why I had never received a validation notice as required by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (*****). Instead of addressing the issue or acknowledging their failure to exercise due diligence, the representative simply offered me instructions on how I could dispute the debt placing the burden on me rather than offering a meaningful resolution.Additionally, a second dispute appeared on the same day for a different amount. When I asked for clarification, the representative was unable to locate the second account in their ********************** and was generally unhelpful and unwilling to assist. This lack of accurate recordkeeping and unwillingness to engage in a resolution-oriented discussion is unacceptable.I believe IC Systems has violated my rights under the ***** and potentially the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) by reporting debts without proper validation or reasonable attempts to contact me. I am requesting a thorough investigation into these practices and a removal of any unverified or improperly reported accounts from my credit file.Business Response

Our records indicate the account has been disputed. IC System has reasonably determined that the dispute is frivolous or irrelevant because it was submitted by or prepared by or submitted on a form provided to the consumer by a credit repair organization. ** will send its response directly to the consumer within 30 days.
