DV question

I tried searching, may have missed it but didn't find anything, but does requesting DV restart any clocks (SOL or CRPT)? I want to say I've read here that it doesn't, but would like to make sure. Thanks

Re: DV question

Nope on SOL assuming you didn't variate from the meaning of a DV like admitting to the debt or offering to pay. Nothing can reset DOFD (legally).

Re: DV question

No I haven't sent the DV yet. I was planning to send the Lonnster DV letter on the board to my last remaining bad, but the CA appears to be lawyers?? and I didn't want to do something dumb. That is scheduled to drop off in 2013 according to the EX and TU reports I have seen.

DoFD no.

 

SOL maybe.  It's always best to use terminology like "alleged debt" or "even thoguh I do not believe I owe this money, I am willing to ... ".

rsRe: DV question

DV letters relate to debt collection practices under the FDCPA.  They are not reported to a CRA, and are not recorded in your credit file.

The periods used to calculate deletion dates from your CR are based only on the relevant date of a derog or delinquency reported to your credit file.

Re: rsRe: DV question

That would cover DoFD, but SOL is a different animal then?

Also, can a DV letter cause a TL to be noted as disputed even though one isn't disputing through the CRA? Is that up to each CA or is it the norm?

Yes, SOL is a totally different animal.

 

There have been cases of a DV resulting in a dispute annotation on the tradeline.  Not sure it is the norm, though.

Re: rsRe: DV question

To find the TLs owner, is it best to DV the CA or call/write the OC directly?
