Remove C.Tech Collections From Your Credit Report Easily

Do you want to obtain a loan or open a new line of credit? If you borrow money or use a credit card but fail to service the debt on time, you may be ineligible for any future financial assistance.

Late repayments are reported to credit agencies, and the accounts are sold to debt collection agencies.

An account listed with debt collections almost always appears on the credit report and hampers your chances of getting credit from other creditors.

This DoNotPay article explains how to get rid of collections and negative items on your credit report. We’ll explain all there is to know about C. Tech Collections, and highlight the steps to take if a company won't budge on its stance. 

What Is C.Tech Collections? 

C.Tech Collections is a debt collection agency that focuses on debt recovery for healthcare providers nationwide.

• Once you default on a payment, medical authorities sell the account to C.Tech to follow up on the debt and ensure it is repaid in full.
• The involvement of C.Tech or any other debt collection agency is bound to appear on your credit score and limit your ability to get a loan.

Here's how to get in touch with C.Tech Collections.

Why is C. Tech Collections on my Credit Report? 

If you receive weekly or monthly credit reports from Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion, you should analyze them keenly. These companies tend to produce credit reports in bulk, so they can make mistakes that affect your credit score.

Besides production errors, you also want to check for consistency in your reports in case of fraudulent activity. These are the main areas of a credit report to look at closely:

• Personal information – Incomplete contact info, wrong social security numbers
• Accounts – Incorrect payment history, inaccurate account status
• Inquiries – Pulling credit reports without authorization
• Public records – Judgment that doesn't involve you

What Is a Debt Validation Letter? 

If you receive a call from C.Tech about a defaulted payment, don't give them any details but rather insist on getting all the information concerning the loan first. Debt collection agencies are required by law to provide written evidence of the debt within five days after initial contact.

How to Write a Debt Verification Letter

Once you get the debt details but don't owe such debt, or the loan becomes obsolete due to the statute of limitations, you have 30 days to write back and request for verification that the loan is indeed yours.

Your debt verification letter should look like this:

Date:

Individual name

Address

City

Debt collectors name

Address

City

RE: Account # (Fill in Account Number)

To Whom It May Concern:

I received a letter to pay a loan from one of your representatives on 4/10/2021. However, I do not owe that debt. My information was stolen, and I disputed that account with C.Tech and the major credit bureaus.

According to the FDCPA, I reserve the right to request a validation of the debt you claim I owe. This is in no way a request for verification but instead for validation in line with 15USC 1692 sec. 809 (b) of FDCPA.

Kindly send me documentation that proves I owe you the debt. Until then, kindly avoid trying to contact me through any means and note that I dispute the responsibility for this loan.

I've already notified the reference credit bureaus of my dispute. If your company provides the information requested, I will need 30 days to investigate it on my own.

Best regards

Strategies for Successfully Disputing Your Credit Report 

If a collections account is on your credit score, there are specific actions you can take to remove it. Some of those steps include:

1. Request a Goodwill Deletion 

One of the most effective ways to dispute collections in your credit report is through goodwill. After you pay the debt, you can simply request the debt collection agency to delete the collection from your report.

This involves submitting a formal validation letter to the collections agency if the information on your credit report is incorrect or inaccurate. Once investigated and found debt-free, the collections will be expunged from your credit report.

3. Remove the Collections Yourself 

Debt collections usually remain on your report for seven years, after which they become obsolete. However, if the information on your report is wrong, or you pay the existing debt, but C.Tech refuses to delete the collections from your report, you can remove the debt before the seven years are over.
