I've read that Texas is the only state that this law remains but I've read on other sites that it does not matter which state you live in. I happen to live in California.
Do I send out a last and final request and wait another 15 days and if nothing send a letter to the CRA's with attached proof requesting deletion?
If the DV is timely (requesting it within 30 days of new collection) then the CA cannot continue any collection efforts until they supply you with the validation. If you sent the DV with comments of dont contact me by phone only by mail then you will most likely not hear from them they will take the limited C&D as a full C&D, limiteds dont work. If you have sent this at any other time they dont have to do anything with your validation request and can continue collection actions. Texas is the only state that demands CAs respond under its finance code to a DV at any time. You can try mailing the CRAs the proof of delivery but they are on to this method and it usually is not successful. There is not much you can do at this point but wait.
