I, XXXX XXXX hereby submit this formal complaint against for violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) in relation to the improper and misleading reporting of a charged-off account on my report Additionally, Experian has XXXX in practices that may violate federal tax law principles regarding double recovery, as established in several landmark court decisions and IRS rulings XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX Experian reporting the account as " charge off '' every month, thereby creating the misleading impression that the account has been charged off repeatedly. Under accounting and legal standards, a charge-off is a one-time event. Repeated reporting of this charge-off constitutes inaccurate reporting and violates FCRA Section 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ( 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ), which requires furnishers to provide accurate and complete information. This inaccurate reporting is also in violation of FCRA Section 607 ( b ) ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ), which mandates that furnishers must adopt procedures that ensure the maximum possible accuracy of consumer information. By continuing to report the charge-off on a monthly basis, Experian has fraudulently extended the negative impact of this event on my XXXX XXXX. Experian Improper Reporting of Credit Limits on Charged-Off Accounts In addition to the above, Experian has also reported a credit limit on the charged-off and closed account. This is misleading because a charged-off account is no longer an active line of credit. Reporting a credit limit falsely suggests that there is still available credit, which affects my credit utilization ratio and further damages my XXXX XXXX. This practice is in clear violation of the accuracy standards required under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), as the information furnished is neither relevant nor accurate. Misleading Reporting of a Balance on a Charged-Off Account Furthermore, Experian continues to report a negative balance on the charged-off accounts they have furnished on my credit report, while also maintaining the status of the account as " charged off. '' This reporting is misleading and suggests that the debt is still tied to the original creditor, even though they no longer own it, having sold it to a third party. Under XXXX. XXXX. XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, once a bad debt deduction is taken, the debt is considered worthless, and any subsequent attempt to claim ownership or collect on it constitutes an improper attempt at double recovery. 3. Violation of Federal Tax Law Principles of Double Recovery This issue also implicates principles established in federal tax law regarding double recovery. Several key cases emphasize that creditors can not claim a bad debt deduction while simultaneously asserting continued : The XXXX Supreme Court ruled that a taxpayer must recognize income when a debt is XXXX to prevent benefiting from both a deduction and continued control over the debt. This principle applies here because you can not continue reporting and benefiting from the charge-off while the debt has been XXXX or sold. The XXXX XXXX ruled that once a debt is claimed as uncollectible, it can not be treated as still owed. By continuing to report the account, Experian are attempting to assert the existence of a debt that has already been deemed worthless. This case reinforces that a creditor can not claim a bad debt deduction while simultaneously attempting to assert the debts collectibility. ruled that a debt must be proven worthless before a deduction can be claimed, and any subsequent assertion of the debts collectibility would be improper.Please also see my request to opt.
