Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports

I am writing to formally dispute the fraudulent reporting of the Chase Business Ink Credit Cards account ending in XXXX, and XXXX which has been incorrectly listed on my personal credit file. I have never applied for this account, nor did I agree to be personally liable for it. This matter has caused significant damage to my credit, and I believe it constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ), and other consumer protection laws.

Summary of Key Points : Authorized Officer Status Not Personal Liability : Chase has stated that I was listed as an a
uthorized officer of the company for this account. However, this designation does not equate to personal liability unless a personal guarantee was signed. I have never signed such an agreement or accepted personal responsibility for this debt. Simply being listed as an " authorized officer '' does not impose personal liability, and Chase has failed to provide any signed documentation indicating that I agreed to assume such liability. 

Reclassification of Business Account to Flexible Spending Account : Chase has unilaterally reclassified this business credit card account from a business account to a Flexible Spending Account ( FSA ) after it became 60 days delinquent. This reclassification appears to be a tactic to allow Chase to report the account on my personal credit file, despite the fact that I am not personally liable for the debt. I have never agreed to this reclassification, and Chase has provided no documentation explaining this policy or its legality.

Failure to Provide Original Signed Agreement : I have repeatedly requested the original signed agreement proving my personal responsibility for this debt. Chase has only provided a general business credit card agreement, which does not include my signature or any acknowledgment of personal liability. The lack of a signed agreement further supports that I am not personally liable for this account. 

FCRA Violation Inaccurate Reporting ( 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ) : Chase is wrongfully reporting this business debt on my personal credit file as if it is a personal liability. This is a violation of the FCRA, which requires that credit reporting be accurate and truthful. Despite my dispute with the credit bureaus, Chase has failed to provide any supporting documentation to verify that I am personally responsible for this debt.

Failure to Provide Proper Verification ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) : Under the FCRA, Chase is required to provide proper verification when a debt is disputed. I have requested the original signed agreement, but Chase has failed to provide this documentation, instead offering only a general credit card agreement that does not establish my personal liability. 

Unfair and Deceptive Practices CFPB Violation : Chases practice of retroactively reclassifying a business credit card as a personal debt after it becomes delinquent is deceptive and unfair. This reclassification, without any supporting documentation, unfairly harms my personal credit. Additionally, when I spoke with XXXX, a supervisor in Chases Credit Reporting Department, on XX/XX/year>, I asked where in Chases policy it states that they can retroactively change the card classification. XXXX was unable to provide any supporting documentation, only stating that this is Chases practice and refused to update the credit reporting agencies that this is an actual Business Credit Card. If so it would not allow Chase to report it on my personal credit file so he refused my request.

I have attached Chase Credit Card Agreement, copies of how they have reclassified it as a flexible spending account and not a Business account on my credit files, a copy of the original credit cards to show it was a business credit card.
