RE: Complaint Number ********
Dear ***********************,
Thank you for giving NCB Management Services, Inc. (NCB) the opportunity to respond to your concerns.
NCB purchased the referenced account on August 1, 2019, from ********* ******** ******** (*********). This account was an auto loan, originating with Santander on March 10, 2017, for the purchase of a 2013 *** *******. You entered into a contractual agreement with the original creditor, Santander. That agreement made you responsible for paying this debt and gave ********* the right to collect it from you.
When the account was not paid as agreed,********* sold the debt and transferred all of its rights to NCB including the right to collect and credit report the debt as permitted by law. Santander may transfer its contractual rights to NCB without your permission or signature. You are still bound by your original agreement to pay this debt. The difference is that NCB now owns the right to collect it from you. As discussed in our August 6, 2019, letter, NCB is now the current creditor to whom the debt is owed.
NCB investigated your current dispute by reviewing the information and documents provided by the original creditor, the information you provided and the information from our own system regarding the status of your account. The documents we have do not substantiate the allegations in your dispute. Our investigation confirmed the debt is valid and owed, and the information we reported to the credit reporting agencies was accurate and complete.
A review of our records finds no direct request for the debt validation documents had been received by NCB prior to the receipt of this complaint. In a separate mailing to the address in your complaint, NCB has provided debt validation documents which include a copy of the signed contract, the deficiency letter, a financial transaction history of the account, and a copy of the bill of sale agreement between NCB and *********. We trust this information helps to clarify things for you.
In sum, NCB did not violate the FCRA. NCB has a permissible purpose to credit report your debt, the information we reported was accurate, and we met our obligation to investigate and respond to your dispute as required by law. We have updated our credit reporting to reflect the status of your dispute.
At NCB, we strive to collaborate with consumers to help them achieve financial freedom. In keeping with this goal, we welcome the opportunity to work with you as there are many options available to assist in finding a resolution for this account. Should you have any further concerns, please do not hesitate to contact NCB at ************.

Ive talked to them multiple times and have proof that the bill was paid in full, and they refuse to fix the issue. I used a cashiers check and dont have a copy but had sent them the proof via certfied mail that they claim they never recieved. I also asked for a copy of paperwork and they only sent partial information. Right now it says closed on my credit reports but NCB keeps calling people who know me to say I still owe money when all my reports say otherwise. I want them to stop contacting anyone assoicated with me.Business Response

RE: Complaint Number ********
Dear *****************,
Thank you for giving NCB Management Services, Inc. (NCB) the opportunity to respond to your concerns.
This account was an internet loan originating with ************* & ***** (*************) on July 28, 2022. NCB purchased this account from ************* on January 24, 2023. You may also recognize this account as your ********* online line of credit account. On March 1, 2023, NCB sent you a letter notifying you that NCB is now the current creditor to whom the debt is owed.
NCB respectfully disagrees with the allegations in your complaint. A review of our records finds that NCB has previously investigated the issue raised in your complaint on two separate occasions. While we believe your dispute to duplicative, we investigated your current dispute by reviewing the information and documents provided by the original creditor, the information you provided and the information from our own system regarding the status of your account. The documents we have do not substantiate the allegations in your dispute.
A review of our records confirm that the first investigation began on March 7, 2023, when you spoke with our agent and stated that you had paid the entire balance on the account directly to ************* around December 15, 2022, and December 16, 2022. In response, NCB promptly contacted ************* to inquire about the payment. On March 9,2023, ************* confirmed back to NCB that they had no record of receipt of your said payment before or after the account was charged-off and sold to NCB.
The second investigation began on May 4, 2023, when informed our agent on phone that you had already settled the debt directly with ************* prior to the sale of the account to NCB. On that call you agreed to email NCB supporting documentation in your possession that *** assist in resolving your dispute. On the same day we received your email attaching a document showing what appeared to be a credit report screenshot of a ************* tradeline reported as closed with a zero balance. In response, NCB ceased all collection activities and contacted ************* to share the information you provided.
On August 2, 2023, ************* responded to NCB stating that after a thorough investigation, they did not have any evidence of receiving any payment from you and also confirmed that the balance owed on the account at the time of charge off was $3,370 which is the amount NCB is attempting to collect. On the same day, NCB mailed you a letter notifying you that our investigation of your dispute was not substantiated. It is worth noting that once an account is charged off by a creditor, the balance is zeroed out on their books and is accurately reported as closed on their books. This does not mean that your obligation to repay the debt is extinguished. On the contrary, because of the sale referenced above, NCB is now your current creditor to whom the debt is owed.
Additionally, our review confirmed that the next time we had the opportunity to speak with you was on September 27, 2023, when you stated that you did not remember the debt and requested that NCB provide you with debt validation documents. In response, NCB mailed and emailed to you a set of documents sufficient to verify the debt is valid and owed. The documents included a copy of your line of credit agreement with *************, a financial transaction history of the account and a bill of sale between ************* and NCB.
It is important to note that the documents were mailed to the 300 Cabana Cay address shown above which is the address we have on file and to the email address provided to NCB by your original creditor (****************.).Finally, our investigation also confirmed that NCB has to date not had a conversation with a third party as alleged in your complaint. We hope this information helps clarify things for you.
In sum, NCB has confirmed the debt is valid and owed and we have met our obligation to investigate and respond to your disputes as required by law. NCB has updated our reporting for this account to reflect the status of your dispute. We respect your preference that we cease communicating with you and since receiving this complaint, NCB has ceased all communications with you and will continue to honor your request in the future.
At NCB, we strive to collaborate with consumers to help them achieve financial freedom. In keeping with this goal, we welcome the opportunity to collaborate with you as there are many options available to assist in finding a resolution for this account.

Thank you for giving NCB Management Services, Inc. (NCB) the opportunity to respond to your concerns.
This account was an auto loan originating with ********* ******** ******* (*********) on April 18, 2015, for the purchase of a 2011 ****** ******. NCB purchased this account from Santander on February 27,2020. As a result of the sale, ********* gave NCB information needed to verify the debt is valid and owed and assigned to NCB all of its rights related to the debt, including the right to collect and credit report the debt as permitted by law. On March 2, 2020, NCB sent you a letter notifying you that NCB is now the current creditor to whom the debt is owed.
NCB investigated and verified account information multiple times since May 2020, in response to indirect tradeline disputes you made with the credit reporting agencies (CRAs) by verifying the information we reported accurately reflects the information provided by your original creditor, Santander.
NCB investigated your current dispute by reviewing the information and documents provided to us by the original creditor, the information you provided and the data from our own system regarding the status of your account. The information and documents we have do not substantiate the allegations in your dispute. Our investigation does not show that NCB has received the letter attached to your complaint dated June 16, 2023. Our investigation also confirmed the debt is valid and owed, and the information we reported to the credit reporting agencies was accurate and complete and reported in compliance with the FCRA and ***** * credit reporting standards.
Based on information provided by the original creditor, we reported February 17, 2019, as the date of first delinquency. This is the date that controls how long the account remains on your credit report. We have never changed the date of first delinquency. We reported February 27, 2020 as the date we purchased the account and opened it in our office. The CRAs and ***** * require us to report this “date opened” information.
A review of our records finds no direct request for the debt validation documents had been received by NCB prior to the receipt of this complaint. In a separate mailing to the address in this complaint, NCB has provided debt validation documents which included a copy of the signed contract, the deficiency notice, a financial transaction history of the account, and a copy of the bill of sale agreement between NCB and *********.

This is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and this disputed item may not appear on my credit report if it cannot be supported by any evidence of proof.Customer Answer

I have recently seen a bunch of accounts and inquiries on my report that are unknown. Attached is a copy of the ID Theft Report listing a few of the accounts and inquiries that are unknown and in the process of being removed due to lack of evidence during the investigation. Again I am not liable for this debt with NCB Management Services nor do I have a contract with NCB Management Services.Business Response

RE: Complaint Number ********
Dear ***************************,
Thank you for submitting your concerns and providing NCB Management Services, Inc. (NCB) an opportunity to respond.
The referenced account was an internet loan originating with ******************** (***) on January 19, 2022. You may also recognize this as your Upgrade account. NCB purchased this account from *** on July 26, 2022. As a result of the sale, *** gave NCB information needed to verify the debt is valid and owed and assigned to NCB all of its rights related to the debt, including the right to collect and credit report the debt as permitted by law. As discussed in our July 28, 2022, letter,NCB is now the current creditor to whom the debt is owed.
This correspondence is the first identity theft/fraud claim you have communicated directly to NCB. We have initiated an investigation into your claim, which includes reaching out to the seller and sharing the information you provided, and require additional time to complete it. While we investigate NCB has marked your account as disputed and ceased all collection activities. You will be notified separately in writing of the outcome of our investigation of your fraud claim.
Should you have any further concerns, please contact NCB at ************.
Sincerely,

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:
You did not understand me. I clearly mentioned that I do not have a contract with NCB Management Services. I filled a statement for identity report because I have an account on my consumer report showing up in collections belonging to NCB Management Services stating that I owe a collection amount of $3313 to a company that I do not have a contract with. Until I get proof of a contract between myself and NCB Management Services, I want this account removed from my consumer report. Again, I need NCB Management to provide a contract that I have with NCB Management Services.
Regards,

RE: Complaint Number ********
Dear ***************************,
Thank you for giving NCB Management Services, Inc. (NCB) the opportunity to respond to your concerns. As stated in our original response, the debt at issue is an internet loan originating ******************** (***) on January 19, 2022, also known as your Upgrade account.
You did not ink-sign an agreement to open this account. You applied online and electronically agreed to the terms and conditions for using the account. The loan agreement made you responsible for paying the loan and gave *** the right to collect and credit report the debt as permitted by law. When the loan was not repaid as agreed, *** sold the debt to NCB on July 26, 2022. As a result of that sale, *** gave NCB information needed to verify the debt is valid and owed and assigned to NCB all of its rights related to the debt, including the right to collect and credit report the debt as permitted by law. *** may transfer its rights to NCB without your permission or signature.
The key point is that although you did not originally enter into a contract with NCB, the remaining balance is due to NCB as a result of *** selling your account and assigning its rights to NCB as stated above. NCB is your current creditor to whom the debt is owed.
While you did not specifically state that you were a victim of identity theft in your original complaint, the submission of the *** ID Theft Report you provided assumes your position regarding this debt to mean that you believe it to be fraudulent in nature. As such, NCB completed a thorough investigation which included the documents you provided, the information and documents provided to us by the original creditor, and the information from our own system regarding the status of your account. Additionally, we reached out to the seller and shared the information you provided. The documents we have do not substantiate the allegations of identity theft/fraud concerning this account. On August 11, 2023, NCB provided you a letter advising of the results of our investigation.
On August 3, 2023, NCB provided debt validation documents to the address in your complaint, sufficient to verify the debt is valid and owed. These documents included a copy of the online loan agreement,the truth-in-lending disclosures, a financial transaction history of the account, and a copy of the bill of sale agreement between NCB and CCB. The law requires us to provide sufficient information for you to verify that the debt is owed, and we have met that obligation.
In sum, NCB has a permissible purpose to credit report your debt, the information we reported was accurate and we met our obligation to investigate and respond to your disputes as required by law. At NCB, we strive to collaborate with consumers to help them achieve financial freedom. In keeping with this goal, we welcome the opportunity to work with you as there are many options available to assist in finding a resolution for this account.

RE: Complaint Number ********
Dear *******************************,
Thank you for giving NCB Management Services, Inc. (NCB) the opportunity to respond to your concerns.
This account was an auto loan originating with ********* ******** ******* (*********) on July 20, 2016. NCB purchased this account from Santander on September 26, 2018. On September 28, 2018, NCB sent you a letter notifying you that NCB is now the current creditor to whom the debt is owed.
NCB investigated your current dispute by reviewing the information and documents provided by the original creditor, the information you provided and the information from our own system regarding the status of your account. The documents we have do not substantiate the allegations in your dispute. Our investigation confirmed the debt is valid and owed, and the information we reported to the credit reporting agencies was accurate and complete.
As part of our investigation of your current dispute, we compared our records to the ****** ***** document you provided which purports to summarize information from the major credit bureaus. The summary document does not reflect the information that NCB reported to the credit bureaus. Summaries prepared by third party sites can be unreliable. In fact, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) warns people to avoid using third party sites to obtain credit report information. Instead, they recommend obtaining a free credit report directly from one of the credit bureaus such as ******** or **********. For more information, visit the FTC website at *********************************************************.
NCB has updated our reporting to reflect the status of your dispute. Should you have any further concerns, please contact NCB at ************.
