I have a medical collection which is being reported by XXXX different collection agencies however for the same original creditor. XXXX XXXX XXXX is the original creditor that turned over a debt in the amount of {$550.00} to both Syndicated Office Systems and Central Finance Control. These XXXX collection agencies are parent companies demanding that I pay the collection. It makes no sense to pay a collection account XXXX and it is difficult to determine who has legal ownership of the debt, or which debt collector had it first especially when XXXX claim to have acquired the debt on the SAME DATE. 

Syndicated Office Systems is reporting on my XXXX only, while Central Finance Control has reported the debt on both my XXXX and XXXX. According to recent actions ( XXXX/XXXX/2015 ) taken against Syndicated Office Systems by the CFPB, these types of collection tactics are unethical and illegal. 

Over the past XXXX months, I have hired two different companies in an attempt to validate the debt. However neither Syndicated Office Systems nor Central Finance Control responded within the XXXX time frame as required by federal law ( see attached ) and when they did respond, each claimed to legally own the debt.
