Debt Collector Ignores Written-Contact-Only Request and Provides No FDCPA Validation

A debt collector continues phone calls despite a written request for written-only contact, and has not provided the debt validation documentation required under FDCPA. The consumer cannot verify whether the debt amount is accurate or whether the collector has legal authority to collect. The dual violations—contact preference and validation—persist without enforcement.
