Complaint:
I received a collection notice from your office on XX/XX/2019 that was dated for XX/XX/2019. In this notice you mentioned that you were representing XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and that they were the owner of an account that is allegedly owed by me. 

I would like to dispute the validity of this accused debt as I have NEVER owned an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX so how can they own an account that you are stating is owed by me. Are they a debt buyer? Was there a bill of sale or receipt of the sales transaction? I want to know the exact amount that the debt was purchased for if thats the case. 

If you are representing them are you advising that you are an attorney? If not, how can you be representing them. Was there a power of attorney given to you by the alleged creditor that warrants permission for you to collect money from me? If you are a debt collector this is very misleading and a violation of the FDCPA Section 1962E for misleading representation. If you were assigned this debt you will need to produce a letter of assignment from the owner of this account or a bill of sale showing the purchasing transaction confirming that YOU are entitled to the compensation of this alleged amount owed. 

Furthermore, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has also violated FDCPA Section 1692C ( B ) for disclosure to a third party in connection with the collection of an alleged debt. Outside of myself, the original creditor and the credit reporting agency they were not authorized to disclose any information to a third party, including YOURSELF unless you are the debt collectors attorney. 

Please notify your client of their negligence and deceptive acts. I would like this debt to seize effectively immediately and further collection activity to be blocked. Please send me a letter confirming your compliance to avoid further escalation of this matter to State and Federal governing entities for investigation of XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I will await your response within 30 days.

Complaint:
I entered a consumer credit transaction with this organization and extended them my credit and as a result they used my credit card ( as described in 15 USC 1602 ) and was extended credit in a consumer credit sale. they are now claiming that they originated the credit I extended to them, in which constitutes fraud, the alleged interest not included in the finance charge ( sum of all charges ) Pursuant to federal law They have committed fraud and several violations of the FDCPA and TILA. They are now threatening me for an alleged debt that they claim I owe. I never received a Material Disclosure of any of the information that was supposed to be provided to me. they have taken an unfair advantage of me as a consumer, and they should be held accountable for deceiving me and not validating the debt. They have not validated anything ; they have ruined my character and general reputation by reporting erroneous information on my consumer report and included a symbol on the contents of the envelope for the mail carrier or any person affiliated with the mail service or comes in contact with the envelope thats alleging I owe a debt. Theyve act as if they are unaware of what I am requesting or that the law does not apply to them and I've included evidence and proof, pursuant to federal law with facts that prove that the law does apply to them and that they must adhere to them. They have not provided me with any original documents, and they have disregarded the law by saying, they do not have to provide me with anything except billing statements or applications, which is not proof of validation or proof that I owe anything. They are also claiming that they must report information to the credit bureaus, however cfpb handbook 3.1.1 furnishers incentives and decentives states- reporting to credit bureaus and other consumer agencies by creditors is voluntary and historically has been. Furnishers have multiple incentives to contribute data to XXXX  one of which is for borrowers to make timely repayments. Their willful non-compliance has damaged my reputation as well as my credit file.

Complaint:
My wife and myself lost our jobs due to COVID. I have found another job at a lower income and my wife has not had her income come come back. Our house mortgage is in forbearance which is not to adversely effect my credit. I have noticed that my credit rating Has dropped and one of the reasons given : Not enough balance paid down over time on real estate secured loans Description A real estate secured loan can be a first mortgage, a home equity loan, or a home equity line of credit. The amount that has been paid down on your open real estate loans is low. People who haven't paid down much of their real estate balances are higher credit risk than people who have This specific information is from XXXX XXXX that I receive through XXXX XXXX ( my credit union ), but my score has dropped on every other financial website that I have received scores from, and when inquiring to my credit history and checking my credit report from the three bureaus I am unable to find where or how this is calculated or why it is being used. 
XXXX XXXX provides credit score reporting via XXXX XXXX. 
How is XXXX XXXX unique? 
It is a tri-bureau score : a single score analyzing the data from all three reporting bureaus Is there any remedy since I thought under the CARES act and my mortgage being in forbearance it would not be effected?

Complaint:
To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to file a complaint against XXXX XXXXXXXX for violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by reporting inaccurate information to credit bureaus. Specifically, XXXX XXXX has been reporting inaccurate payment history and amount owed on my account, which has had a significant negative impact on my credit score and financial standing. 

Despite numerous attempts to rectify these issues with XXXX XXXX directly, I have not been able to obtain a satisfactory resolution. Furthermore, these inaccuracies have resulted in XXXX XXXX reporting misleading information to credit bureaus, in violation of my rights under the FCRA. 

As a result of XXXX XXXX 's inaccurate reporting, my credit score has suffered a significant drop of XXXX points on three separate occasions in the past 90 days. This has caused me undue stress and financial hardship, as it has made it difficult for me to obtain credit and other financial services. 

Under the FCRA, XXXX XXXX is required to provide accurate information to credit reporting agencies, including payment history and amount owed. Furthermore, if XXXX XXXX becomes aware that any information it has provided to a credit reporting agency is not accurate, it is required to promptly notify the agency and provide corrected information. 

Therefore, I am requesting that XXXX XXXX be held accountable for its violations of the FCRA and that any inaccurate information be removed from my credit report. Additionally, I am requesting that XXXX XXXX be required to pay {$100000.00} damages for harm that has been caused to my credit score and financial standing. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to hearing from you soon. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint:
Why does the Target MasterCard hold your payments hostage for almost *3 weeks* without releasing your funds? How is this possible when my credit card accounts with XXXX XXXX and XXXX take no more than 2 days *at most*? How can this company take {$980.00} ( paying in full, early ) out of my bank account on XX/XX/2020 and not release my funds for 17 days?! What is the point of this " use it everywhere card '' if I can't use it? 

I made a second payment ( in full, early ) for {$1300.00} on XX/XX/2020 - my funds are immediately removed from my bank account, and then I'm told it won't clear until XX/XX/XXXX?! 

I was warned by XXXX I was " hitting the limit '' of my card, which caused a significant drop in my credit score, and its simply not true. I paid - IN FULL, AHEAD OF SCHEDULE - twice, and my funds are held hostage for so long it considers it to overlap and deny the use of my card for several weeks. Go ahead, check my credit history - its good. Im never late and I don't owe. 

This company was happy to immediately rip {$2300.00} out from my bank but can only tell me " there are lots of factors why [ my funds ] aren't available '' - but when asked, they fail to tell me what they are " because we cant see '' what effects my account. So who CAN see? No one?
