Notification of Right to Request Substantiation

If you wish to request substantiation of the debt, you may make a request for substantiation by notifying Coast Professional, Inc. in writing to: Coast Professional, Inc., P.O. Box 425 Geneseo NY 14454, indicating you are requesting substantiation of the debt.  Please identify your name and account number clearly in the correspondence.  Once a debt collector such as Coast Professional, Inc. receives a written request for substantiation, the debt collector must cease collection of the debt until substantiation has been provided to the consumer.  Substantiation must be provided within 60 days of receiving the request.  A debt collector must substantiate a debt pursuant to this section only once during the period that the debt collector owns or has the right to collect the debt.  Unlike the 30 day validation period under the FDCPA, there is no specific time limit outlined in the regulations during which a consumer must request substantiation.
