Your agreement is with the credit card company who is the original
creditor and therefore will not give you a cause of action against the
original creditor since FDCOA states that original creditors are not
liable under FDCPA. They might be liable under your state law however.
Another problem might arise if you attempt to use the credit card
agreement as your cause of action and that is whether or not the debt
collector bought the debt and if so did the terms and conditions of
the card agreement transfer to the purchaser at the time of the sale.
It would require a judicial decision to determine that matter.
Attempting to use the card agreement as giving a cause of action would
be a slippery slope at best.
