I am not liable for the debt with ******** ****** **** ** *********** I don’t have a contract with Nationwide Recovery Service & they did not provide me with the original contract as requested in the certified mail letter that they received on 06/11/2024. I have attached the letter asking them for both a breakdown of fees including any and all collections costs and medical charges and a copy of my signature with the provider of service (******** Urgent Care) to release my medical information to Nationwide Recovery Services. I have also included in the dispute letter that they immediately cease any credit bureau reporting until the debt has been validated by me or face legal liability for violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Nationwide Recovery Services is still reporting this to the credit bureaus which has severely decreased my credit rating. Nationwide Recovery Services is not licensed or authorized to collect debt in the state of GA and they are in violation of consumer law and the FDCPA. Again, I am requesting that Nationwide Recovery Services immediately remove this remark from my credit report or face legal liability for violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices.Business response

Better Business Bureau:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me as long as the collection from Nationwide Recovery Services is deleted from my credit reports for all three bureaus, as they have stated that they would delete it.

I am not liable for the debt with ***** ***. I don't have a contract with Nationwide Recovery Service & they did not provide me with the original contract as requested. The collection agency also has provided false information to the credit bureaus in efforts to disguise their name and address which have made it hard for me to get in contact with them. In addition to this after further research I found out that the collection agency (Nationwide Recovery Service) is not licensed or authorized to collect debt in the state of GA and they are in violation of consumer law and the FDCPA.

I am deeply concerned about the sharing of my nonpublic information with credit bureaus and the resulting inaccuracies on my credit report. This situation has caused significant financial and emotional distress. Under 15 USC 1681 Section 602, I have the right to financial privacy, and I expect my information to remain confidential. Furthermore, 15 USC 1681 Section 604(a)(2) states that a consumer reporting agency cannot furnish account information without my written instructions, which I have not provided. I have identified inaccuracies on my credit report from NATIONWIDE RECOVERY SV, impacting my financial well-being. I request these inaccuracies be corrected promptly. Lastly, please remember 15 USC 1666(b), which prohibits treating payments on a credit card account as late under certain circumstances. For reference, my account details are as follows: Account Number: ****** Account Number: ****** Account Number: ****** Account Number: ****** I request a thorough review of my account, prompt correction of credit report inaccuracies, and strict adherence to federal laws regarding my information. Failure to address these issues may compel further legal action. I anticipate your prompt response and resolution to these concerns. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.

Thank you for reaching out to our office. The phone # on the letter ************** is our accurate phone #, so i am unsure how you were directed to the line you said. The documents you sent appear to be our letters. We have coded your account as being disputed. We have requested validation to be mailed to you. It is not uncommon for a client to place an account with a child's name but we have notified the client to see if they can correct the file. Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you. Once we hear from the client on file corrections we will get that taken care of and you will be getting your validation. You may call *************** if you have any questions.Customer response
