⚾️Happy #OpeningDay

@HellerSports Skenes has an ERA of 67.50.

In other MLB news... Paul Skenes opening inning for the Pirates: 2/3 of an inning pitched...4h, 5r, all earned. Oh...and Freddy Peralta's 1st inning as a Met: 2h, 2r, 3K's, 21-pitches. Just an FYI

there's a phone number that deletes debt it's the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau hotline: 855-411-2372 when you file a complaint through the CFPB (you can also do it online at consumer finance. something very specific happens on the other end that most people don't understand the CFPB forwards your complaint directly to the company you're complaining about. the company has 15 days to respond and 60 days to resolve. but here's the part that matters: the CFPB tracks every single complaint and publishes response data in a public database that regulators, journalists, and attorneys monitor companies know this. banks know this. collection agencies know this a CFPB complaint against a debt collector carries more weight than 50 dispute letters because the collector now has a federal regulatory body watching their response. if they fuck it up, it creates a paper trail that FCRA and FDCPA attorneys can use to sue them the resolution rate on CFPB complaints is dramatically higher than normal disputes. we're talking 65-80% of complaints resulting in some form of resolution versus 40-50% for standard bureau disputes. companies would rather delete the account than have a negative response on their CFPB record the process: go to consumerfinance "credit reporting" or "debt collection" depending on your issue describe the problem in detail. be specific. include dates, account numbers, dollar amounts, and what you've already tried. mention any FCRA or FDCPA violations you've identified. if you sent dispute letters and the bureau failed to investigate properly, say that. if a collector is pursuing time-barred debt, say that. if they can't validate, say that the CFPB complaint creates three layers of pressure simultaneously: layer 1: the company's compliance department gets involved (not the call center, not the dispute processing center, the compliance team that reports to the legal department) layer 2: the response becomes part of the company's permanent public record in the CFPB complaint database (searchable by anyone including the media) layer 3: if the company's response is inadequate, the CFPB can flag it for enforcement review. companies with patterns of poor complaint responses end up in consent orders and class action settlements worth millions i file CFPB complaints on every account that survives two rounds of bureau disputes. the success rate on the third attempt via CFPB is absurdly high because the dynamics completely change when a federal regulator is cc'd on the conversation a guy came to us with a $6,800 collection from a gym membership he cancelled in 2020. the gym sold the account. he disputed through all three bureaus twice. came back "verified" both times. filed CFPB complaint on a friday afternoon. the collection agency contacted him the following wednesday offering to delete the account entirely if he'd withdraw the complaint $6,800 account. deleted. no payment. because a federal agency was watching the same collectors who ignore your certified mail and auto-verify your bureau disputes will fold in 48 hours when the CFPB is involved. the power dynamic flips completely you can file unlimited CFPB complaints. there's no limit. no fee. no attorney needed. you can file against the collector, the original creditor, AND each bureau separately for the same account if they all played a role in the violation most people have never heard of the CFPB. collectors are counting on that. the bureaus are counting on that. the entire credit reporting industry operates with less accountability than it should because most consumers don't know there's a federal agency specifically designed to pressure these companies on their behalf now you know the number we file CFPB complaints and run the full dispute process across bureaus, furnishers, and regulatory channels. if your credit has items that won't come off through normal disputes, link in bio. we use every tool that exists
