Why do agency’s request the Itemized Statement?

Why »Validation of Debts: »Fair Debt Collection Practices Act: »§ 809. Validation of debts [15 USC 1692g] »30 days from the date of letter request validation of the debt. »After 30 days, not required but you should. »Agency must send, not the creditor.

30 Days If you don’t respond, we need to cancel
