CREDITWRENCH and more misleading information
While browsing the CREDITWRENCH message board today, I ran across this bit of false and misleading information that CREDITWRENCH CEO Bill Bauer provided one of the posters:
To this question, CREDITWRENCH CEO Bill Bauer responded with:
The above is totally false and misleading.
There are numerous violations, and they commit new ones everytime they mis-report, irrespective of whether or not suit is filed.
Assuming they are reporting to all 3 bureau's, every reporting involves at least 12 FDCPA violations and 6 FCRA violations. The FDCPA violations are separate causes of action from the FCRA violations, and the FCRA violations are not limited to $1,000 per suit like the FDCPA violations are.
CREDITWRENCH CEO Bill Bauer stating that unless a suit is filed, no further violations occurred is false and misleading.
Quote:
When Sherman puts the SOL on a credit report as 4/1/04 (actually
its 3/1/03), is it a violation every time they do this or is it collectively
just one violation?Bob
To this question, CREDITWRENCH CEO Bill Bauer responded with:
It is a separate violation every time they do it if you file a new lawsuit on them every time they do it. If you don't do that then they are collectively just one violation.
The above is totally false and misleading.
