I have fought this battle of trying to remove the fraudlent activity since XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX  will not remove these inaccuracies at all they are fraudulent and are not my any means consented by me. XXXX  sent me a credit report informing me to call the collection agencies which I have only to be hung up. These collection agencies threatened me with jail and liens and even harassed my job. Im in desperate need to get this fixed I cant even get equipment for my daughter who is XXXX because someone has ruined my credit. I have done everything XXXX has asked of me only to receive no results. I have even paid for extra privacy and alerts through XXXX to still have no results but a waste of time and money.
