Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Used obscene, profane, or other abusive language

Complaint:
This complaint is THREE fold. 
First, they have called me, my relatives, my minor daughter, my work, etc misrepresenting themselves - cursing - threatening - making calls all hours of the day and night. 
Second I sent them a CERTIFIED LETTER RETURN RECEIPT on XX/XX/2022, when this first began which they signed for. Note - I had never received anything in writing from them beforehand as is required by law. They have FAILED to comply with my letter/rights as set forth in the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. I even told them in this letter that XXXX XXXX, their " client '', never submitted the claim into my MEDICAID ( Maryland ) which they had at the time of services and were legally required to do. Hence, I owe them NOTHING. 
Third, my personal credit is PERFECT. And now, almost 2 months later they report this as a collection to the major credit reporting agencies. 
I am battling cancers and I don't want or need this drama. 
They need to be stopped and held accountable for their illegal actions.

Complaint:
HI NRA National Recovery Agency - # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ;??? FOR {$1400.00}??? 

Im confused and stressed and shocked when I reviewed my credit report this week and I found multiple inaccuracies on my credit report from the 3 major credit bureaus from a collection company that I never have dealt with before. I've attempted several times to ratify the issue with the original creditors and credit bureaus and they still reporting inaccurate, unverifiable information. I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature. 6. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity. 
You have 30 days upon receipt of this letter to provide strict proof of contract. In the event you can not provide strict proof of contract, you must cease and desist any and all collection efforts and immediately remove any derogatory information reported to the consumer reporting agencies. In addition, you will need to provide me your agreement, in writing, that you are closing your file, ceasing collecting activity, and deleting all information related to this reference number from any and all credit reports youve furnished the information to. In the event you transfer this account to an attorney without providing proof of contract, and proving your claim, he/she will be immediate reported to the XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX for code of ethics violations.

Complaint:

I filed a fraud complaint with the company, paid all legitimate charges on the account and closed the account ( XX/XX/2022 ).

The company is now harassing me with several calls and emails on a daily basis, and the " balance '' is now in excess of {$300.00}, all consisting of fraudulent charges, late fees and interest. I have called the company, filed online and also participated in an online chat. I can not get any resolution and my excellent credit is being ruined by fraud, deception and incompetence.

Complaint:
I pulled my credit report back in XXXX of 2022 and noticed I had three collection accounts being reported. The amounts were {$1100.00}, {$780.00}, and {$930.00}. On XXXX XXXX I mailed a validation letter to XXXX, Experian and XXXX requesting validation of these debts. I had read online the credit bureaus have 30 days to review request, so allowed the appropriate time, however I never even received anything stating the debt was validated. So, on XXXX XXXX i mailed a second letter to all three buraus asking for these collection accounts to be reviewed and verified as they were destroying my credit score. Again, I allowed another 30 days and still hadn't received any kind of response. I mailed my third letter on XXXX XXXX, stating my step would be to file a complaint because the handling of my request was beyond unprofessional. To date, I still haven't received anything thing from XXXX, XXXX or Experian. I would like to point out that, he debt in the amount of {$1100.00} had inaccurate and incomplete information reporting. The last dates of activity are different between XXXX and Experian and the payment history reports collection/charge off on Experian, however on XXXX it is completely blank. For the debt in the amount of {$780.00}, on my Experian report the last date of activity has XX/XX/2022, but XXXX has XX/XX/2022. And again, the payment history reports collection/charge off on Experian, however on XXXX it is completely blank. Lastly the debt in the amount of {$930.00} has 3 different dates listed for date of last activity. XXXX has XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, XXXX has XX/XX/2022 and Experian has XX/XX/2022. For the payment history, XXXX is blank, XXXX is reporting on time payments an Experian is Blank. i have included all the letters i have mailed along with screenshots of my report.

Sub-issue: Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2021, I submitted a FTC report along with a copy of my identification card and social security card. I called on XX/XX/2021 to see why i haven't received updated documents. I was informed that they never received my documents although they were certified and I explained that the receipt states it was delivered on XX/XX/2021. They still stated they do not have the documents and that I should resend them by mail again. They also stated that they didn't receive any documents from me since XXXX. Ok on XX/XX/2021 I resent the documents again by certified mail. The delivery date shows it was delivered certified on XX/XX/2021. I called today XX/XX/2021 to only be told ( by a SUPERVISOR ) that my documents still weren't receive and to the only thing I can do is resend them via mail. This company is playing with my credit profile but are also contributing to the identity theft that is already happening to me. How can a company be so careless with people important information. They constantly keep telling me that the documents weren't received, but I have the proof that they are being delivered to the correct address. So how exactly aren't you guys receiving these documents. If you aren't receiving them then who are? I feel that this company is being malicious and are not adhering to the FTC rules.

Complaint:
On XXXX. XXXX 2023, Equifax phone attendants fought me, and lied to me about not having received the identity theft report from CFPB when I sent it to the other credit reporting agencies. They were listed on the report. The inquires are fraudulent and they refuse to remove them. I have attached the identity theft report. They screamed at me and demanded that I write them a hand written letter with forms of id and bills associated, after putting me through a large battery of questions to verify my identity. Its exhausting how they behave. If these records are not removed, I expect them to be held accountable for violating my rights!

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: VA
Product: Credit card
Issue: Convenience checks

Complaint:
In or about XX/XX/2016, I took advantage of a no interest promotional check through my XXXX Rewards Mastercard through Chase. To earn points, I make all of my purchases on this credit card and pay my purchase balance in full every month to avoid interest. I recently noticed that I was being charged interest and when I called to inquire as to why they stated that when I accepted the promotion, I forfeited my 30 day grace period on purchases. I accepted that this was an error on my part by not reading the terms and conditions and I wanted to promptly pay off any purchases on which I was being charged interest on daily. Being that the balance was over $ XXXX, I had to pull the payment from multiple accounts. When I went online to make those payments, I was able to process the first payment but not additional payments from additional accounts so I called customer service. When I spoke with an Account Supervisor named XXXX, he informed me that he could take multiple payments over the phone but the payments would not be applied to the purchases I was accruing daily interest on but rather the promotional balance because the purchases have not been through a cycle so the only way I could pay off purchases I 've made since my last statement would be to pay off my entire balance including the promotion. My other option is to wait until my cycle ends and be charged interest daily before I have the option of paying off my purchases.Since I 've never had a company that started charging interest on purchases the day that the purchases were made, I find it highly questionable that they are not allowing the option to pay those purchases off daily?

Sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Complaint:
A few weeks ago I sent letters to all 3 credit bureaus regarding some items on my credit report which I know are not accurate which is a violation of the FCRA and FDCPA and you must abide by the law. Everything I have provided in my letters is true and accurate to my knowledge. Ive received emails and letters saying Im using a 3rd party which is incorrect because I am the one sending my letters out and filing this complaint with no help from a credit repair company or 3rd party. The CRAs are in violation of my rights due to not providing a notice of dispute and for failure to communicate to me that I disputed stuff on my credit. I request these accounts to be deleted from my credit asap or I will take legal action and hire a lawyer. I want to purchase a house soon and this holding me back.

I would like the items I disputed in my letters to be handled accordingly based on the reasons that I put in my letters.
