Complaint:
On XX/XX/2022, I sent a letter regarding inaccurate and unknown things on my credit report to this day over 30 days later I have not received a response yet. I feel like I'm taken advantage of and being ignored for my disputes. Section XXXX ( a ), it is plainly stated that failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report, it has been over 30 days so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts should be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress you caused me. My information was also impacted by the Equifax XXXX breach and may have got into the hands of the wrong person.

Sub-product: Payday loan debt
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Impersonated attorney, law enforcement, or government official

Complaint:
I did some more looking into this debt that this debt collection agency says I owe and this is what I found.. Al; so, please see email below they sent me after i asked them for a debt validation document. 

The name of the company is XXXX XXXX XXXX. When you call and they answer the phone they refer to themselves as XXXX XXXX XXXX and claim they are an attorney 's office. 

Phone number : XXXX Supposed Creditor : Check and Go ( Payday Loan ) I spoke with them twice. 

XXXX XX/XX/XXXX - Spoke with a man by the name of XXXX XXXX who claimed they are a legal firm. He said I owed a balance of XXXX dollars on this check and go account. I asked how much the original debt was for and they guy slightly hesitated and told me XXXX dollars. He said i could settle it if I paid XXXX dollars plus a processing fee of XXXX dollars. They guy said they were going to have me serviced with court papers and that I could end up going to court and being sued. He also said he had my parent 's names. I asked him what my parents names were and he said I was wasting his time. This company has my address. 

XXXX XX/XX/XXXX - I called them and spoke with them again just to ensure I wasn't making a mistake and did owe the money. The first time I called I asked them what kind of company they were and they hung up on me. The second time I called I got some snarky lady. This time she said I owed XXXX dollars instead of the XXXX dollars I was quoted on XXXX XXXX XXXX by XXXX XXXX. She said the loan was issued in XX/XX/XXXX. She said I could settle the debt for XXXX dollars. She claimed they were a mediation group at a law office. I told her if I really owed it that I would pay it but first I need some type of documentation. That's when she sent me this email that I am forwarding to you. She told me if I needed the original document that I wouldn't be able to get a copy of it until we went to court. She also threatened me with serving me papers and taking me to court in XXXX XXXX, Texas. I am extremely alarmed because she knew social, date of birth, my address and make mention of my old bank account at XXXX XXXX XXXX whom I no longer bank with anymore and hadn't for a few years. She didn't say what my checking account number was. 

On XXXX XX/XX/XXXX I called the company they say I owe money to called Check and Go. Between customer service and their collections department three different people confirmed for me that I did not owe money to check and go. I wanted to check myself to see if owed them money and I would have paid it. This company didn't sound familiar when the debt collection agency told me who I owed. 

Their website addess is : XXXX address is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXXXXXX Their email adress is XXXX.

Fist of off these accounts arnet mines and when i call the XXXX XXXX department they act as tho they dont know what XXXX talking about. I asked for proof of the accounts and they have yet to provide me proof that these are accurate yet they keep telling XXXX Equifax and XXXX that they can vaildate it. They are lying and reporting all kinds of information that cant be factual because if so they would have no issues reporting the same FACTS to each company US DEPT ED ACCOUNT NUMBER XXXX When looking at this account, I noticed that it has inaccurate late payments reporting. Not only are there incorrect late payments but the open date, last reported date, and payment status, comments and last active dates all vary between the 3 bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax ). The late payments automatically start at 120 days ... how is that possible? How can a payment be 120 days late in a row? Its 31 days in a month max and the high limit and amount for the balance is different and wrong af

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone

Complaint:
I'm a victim of identity theft. I've been attempting to recover the damage and resolve the issues on my credit report by calling, faxing, and uploading the required documentations to the bureaus as requested by their agents. But the issue is that the website never completely lets me finish the account setup with usual errors ( ie " failed security check '' or " site error, try again '' ) on multiple occasions. Contacting IT department of the bureaus lead to nothing as the agent would " open a ticket '' and no resolution was reached. When the site actually does let me make an account, I can't submit any disputes due to further glitches and contacting IT again leads to nowhere. Last option remains to call their representatives and proceed to dispute through that but when I do call, the reps are too lazy to even properly initiate any disputes. FTC and police report numbers are not taken over the phone and are asked to mail instead. Even after mailing the said documentations over and over again via certified mail and having proofs that the bureau received it, the agents keep denying the receipt and keep hindering my attempts to fix any and all attempts to resolve this drastic information leaks on the bureaus end.

Complaint:
This is a complaint to XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX pursuant to the provisions of 15 U.S.C. 1681i.

After reviewing my credit reports I noticed that your company are violating the Fair credit reporting act by improperly using my credit reports for the following accounts ; [ XXXX  Account Number : XXXX ] [ XXXX Account Number : XXXX ] [ XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX ] These accounts are charged off/canceled debt. Because it is canceled/charged off, this is now considered a certificate of indebtedness per the IRS Publication XXXX The IRS Clearly defines a charge off/cancelled debt as Gross or Ordinary income, and INCOME DOES NOT GET REPORTED ON A CONSUMER REPORT which in fact makes the reporting of this information inaccurate. I provided a screenshot from the IRS website for further evidence. As your company know it is against the law to report any information not proven accurate. I demand that you provide me with concrete evidence of my obligation to said account. Please be aware all negative remarks found on my credit report is a violation of the FCRA and FDCPA when your company can not furnish the validity of the remark. I am not in dispute of the ownership of the accounts so there is no need to " verify '' it, but if your company insists on " verification '' then I request that you mail me a copy of the complete consumer file that you maintain concerning me after you act on this dispute. Note, the term file means all of the information on [ me ] and retained by [ you ] regardless of how the information is stored. 15 U.S.C. 1681a ( g ). Therefore, it is unlawful to send me a partial disclosure and not the entire file. If you verify or deem the item of information that I disputed above as accurate and complete, then I request a description of the procedure used to determine the accuracy or completeness of the information including the business name and address of any furnisher contacted in connection with such information and the telephone number of such furnisher, pursuant to the provisions of 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ), in no later than fifteen ( 15 ) days after making such determination. See 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 7 ). 

This is not only a violation from these companies [ EQUIFAX, XXXX, XXXX ] but it is also a violation from the furnishers of this information pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency, if the person knows or has a reasonable cause to believe that information is inaccurate.

So I filed a complaint with CFPB with Capital One due to my account being frozen and having had ZERO COMMUNICATION regarding why account was frozen, when I can get MY money released to me. 

FINALLY received a response after leaving SEVERAL messages to a " Hidden '' department who never wanted to pick up the phone. " XXXX '' authored a letter that was as vague as stereo instructions : : Quote from letter : : " Please know, we are unable to close your accounts until each deposit that was added to the account is recalled by the sender ( s ). Until that time, the restriction will remain in place. '' WHAT??!!!!!! 

The last deposit to MY account was posted XX/XX/XXXX ... ..ARE YOU KIDDING ME???!! 
I am not going to let CapOne hold my money indefinitely - really? 
Is this the " new '' scam? 

I am in no way contacting anyone to have them recall any deposits to my account ....! 

So I have left XXXX messages with " XXXX '' since I received CFPB notification on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX PST. No response... surprise! 
My files, screenshots, recordings and now this letter, have been forwarded and NEW complaints to FDIC, OCC, and California State Attorney.
