Common Reasons to Dispute an Entry on Your Credit Report From Williams and Fudge

Third-party debt collectors like Williams and Fudge buy debts from companies that have been unable to collect them on their own. By law, these entities are required to send debt validation letters to all consumers they are attempting to collect from. Moreover, these letters must be sent within five days of having made initial contact. A debt validation letter lets you know:

1. The name of the company where the debt in question originated
2. How much you are now being asked to pay
3. What you can do if you want to dispute credit report entries from Williams and Fudge

If you did not receive a debt validation letter from Williams and Fudge or if this letter was lacking any of the information above, you have a solid reason for disputing the information they've provided to credit reporting bureaus.

What You Should Know About Your Rights as a Consumer Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act

The requirements for debt validation letters are outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). The Fair Credit Reporting Act protects the rights of consumers by making it unlawful for third-party debt collection agencies to misreport financial information. Thus, other infractions that justify a credit dispute include:

• Personally identifying information that's incorrect
• A debt amount that conflicts with the amount you believe you owe
• Illegal collection fees

You also have the right to dispute credit report entries from any third-party debt collection agency that reports your debt multiple times or that reports a closed account as being open.

How to Dispute an Entry on Your Credit Report From Williams and Fudge

The very first step in resolving any dispute that you have with an entry on your credit report is by contacting the company that made the entry. You can contact Williams and Fudge by mail, phone, or fax. When doing so, be sure to:

1. Clearly state the reason for your dispute
2. Send copies of the documents that support your dispute and maintain the originals for your records
3. Keep copies of all fax transmission reports or return receipts for certified mail

The FCRA grants you the right to sue third-party collection agencies that fail to adhere to its guidelines. Countless consumers have successfully taken large corporations like AT&T and Comcast to small claims court using the DoNotPay Sue Now product. If you're tired of waiting for Williams and Fudge to respond to your complaints, let DoNotPay advance your issue by taking legal action on your behalf.

Next Steps if You're Having a Hard Time Dealing With Williams and Fudge on Your Own

Your first step in resolving any credit dispute with Williams and Fudge is to contact the company directly. According to FCRA regulations, collection agencies have just 30 days to:

• Reinvestigate your debt
• Respond to your complaint
• Provide a suitable resolution
• Report your debt as disputed

Much like failing to send out debt validation letters, failing to do any of these things constitutes an FCRA violation. The good news is that there is federal support available. This is provided by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). You can contact CFBP here:

You also have the option of contacting the three main credit reporting bureaus directly to ask that they remove your disputed debt. When doing so:

4. Retain all original documents from William and Fudge in case further legal action provides necessary
