Debt Validation And Information Request
Summary
Under the FDCPA, you can request debt validation from collectors, including proof of debt ownership. The Dodd-Frank Act allows homeowners to request information on loan qualification. If a lender is unresponsive, report to the CFPB. The statute of limitations for Dodd-Frank claims is generally 3 years, or 6 years for fraud. If a lender is bankrupt, check with the FDIC or CFPB. Both FDCPA and Dodd-Frank apply to private lenders. Violations can lead to fines or regulatory actions. The Dodd-Frank Act has strong enforcement capabilities. Email requests are valid if detailed and documented.Full Conversation

Would you need any more assistance with your legal matters?
Is it more powerful for me to say that as a homeowner i have the right to reguest certain documenst uder the UCC rather than the DCGPA?
The Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) typically governs commercial transactions, including sales and secured transactions. It's not usually applied in the context of consumer debt collection, which is more appropriately addressed under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA).
Key Points:
- FDCPA: Governs debt collection practices and provides consumer protections.
- UCC: Generally applies to commercial transactions, not typically consumer debt.

- Report the debt collector to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and the Massachusetts Attorney General's Office.
- Consider consulting with a consumer rights attorney for further action.
