I can explain to you about the GE part, Even though you had an Old Navy card, GE was the bank that loaned you the money on the Old Navy card. I can tell you that Resurgent DOES NOT have the original paperwork, when GE sells these debt, they sell numbers not the paperwork (seriously this is what Resurgent trains their agents to say)
Allied Interstate isnt part of LVNV Funding or Resurgent its a 3rd party collection company that RCS placed the debt with.. If you pull up your credit report chances are there at 2 bad marks on. GE Capital will report as a closed/transfer bad debt acct and LVNV Funding will show as an open collection because they "own" the acct now. Its a bunch of BS.
I hope this helps

I too am a victim of LVNV Funding. I had never even heard of them until I received a court summons from them. I too sent a debt validation letter just like the one you sent. All I got in response was a bunch of objections. Then I received interrogatories and Admissions. Well this is where I messed up. I did not answer them. I felt like they had not proven anything. Well I just got out of court with them today and I lost due to not answering the questions. It seems in NC state law overrides Federal law. I pointed out to the judge 809. Validation of debts .(c) The failure of a consumer to dispute the validity of a debt under this section may not be construed by any court as an admission of liability by the consumer. This did not matter to judge. I also stated no evidence was ever given that I legally owe this debt. WEll guess what they got their Judgment. Now I am writting my state Attorney General. If you get these answer them. If only to deny them. Hope this helps Mike

Hello, In response to your inquiry: NO THIS IS NOT A LETTER OF VALIDATION; According to the FDCPA law; which is a federal law; all the following must be present to act as a LETTER OF DEBT VALIDATION: o Proof that the collection company owns the debt/or has been assigned the debt, o Copies of statements from the original creditor o Copy of the original signed loan agreement or credit card application Anything short of the that is UNACCEPTABLE. You should now send them a letter advising that by law, they have not validated your debt and are required to remove all negative comments made to all credit bureaus from your report immediately! When they sell the debt to these collection companies; they never get this information from the credit card company. They get the basics: account number, name, SSN, address, and a phone number to harass you at.
