Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, as reported to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, as reported to TransUnion XXXX manifest clear violations of significant laws and regulations. These violations are not speculative but firmly grounded in established legal frameworks. 

Firstly, 15 USC 1681a mandates accurate consumer information reporting. In this context, the reported accounts fall short, constituting a breach. Additionally, the absence of a clear and conspicuous opt-out mechanism, as required by 16 CFR 313, signifies non-compliance, reinforcing the violation claim.

Moreover, 15 USC 6802 and 15 USC 6803 are transgressed, as evident in the absence of clear consent for information sharing, a direct infringement on privacy standards. The violation of 15 USC 1681b points to a failure to adhere to permissible purpose requirements.

IRS Pub 4681 and 5 USC 5528 violations are evident, as the discharged debt is not reported as income, contravening tax and disclosure obligations. These violations encompass the illegal reporting of transactions and sharing consumer non-public information with non-affiliates, actions explicitly deemed unlawful.

The robust foundation for these claims rests on the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681a, 15 USC 1681b ), Code of Federal Regulations ( 16 CFR 313 ), and other pertinent statutes ( 15 USC 6802, 15 USC 6803, IRS Pub 4681, and 5 USC 5528 ). The factual assertion of these violations calls for immediate corrective action, including account rectification and compliance with the stipulated laws. Failure to address these violations may result in legal consequences, as substantiated by the existing legal frameworks.

Complaint:
The gentleman, XXXX XXXX, who calls has done so numerous times regardless of blocking, speaking to him/them, and calling them back. I have called them back and asked for verification of debt. They could not provide that. The recordings and the communication from the " company '' are threatening. I have called back on " off hours '' and it rings nearly 20 times before rolling to an " old school '' answering machine. It is XXXX XXXX 's voice on the recording which is interesting if this is supposedly a company -- even their cover story has holes. He states it is " MAC  ''. Which may be this company? The number and XXXX have been reported to CFPB. 
https : XXXX The voice message claims a debt and threatens with legal action, arrest, etc. When speaking to them they claimed information from well over a decade ago that was actually paid and was from an account that was closed YEARS ago from XXXX  XXXX XXXX. 

Number they ask you to call back is : XXXX

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX is reporting my accounts with them to the credit bureaus twice which is negatively impacting my score, because it is saying that I have been past due on 5 accounts when it's really only 3 accounts, of which 2 are with XXXX. I have 2 accounts with XXXX and on my credit report it is saying I have 4. They originally reported the two accounts under XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX In XX/XX/2021 I filed a complaint with the CFPB about the credit bureaus reporting on accounts that had incomplete paperwork. XXXX agreed with me and deleted the XXXX XXXX XXXX my report. Equifax and XXXX said that they couldn't delete the accounts until XXXX told them to, regardless of what documentation I send them. XXXX didn't like that the accounts were deleted, so they re-reported the EXACT SAME ACCOUNTS but under a new name, XXXX XXXX XXXX . They did not delete the accounts under the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and Equifax prior to reporting the same accounts under the XXXX XXXX XXXX name XXXX XXXX now the accounts are listed twice. I have disputed this with Equifax adn XXXX twice, but they keep coming back that XXXX verified the accounts, so they won't delete it. I have no idea how they're verifying I have 4 accounts when I clearly only have 2. I called into XXXX this morning and spoke to 2 customer service agents who both agreed I only have 2 accounts but refused to investigate or help. They said that I had to send in a copy of my credit report to them, highlighting where the duplicate accounts are. When I asked why they can't investigate themselves since it's their mistake, and they're the ones reporting it, the agent just said 'this is customer service 's process '. They have been duplicate reporting since XX/XX/2021 and are refusing to fix it. XXXX has the absolute worst customer service, and I would know because I worked in finance for over 10 years. We would never allow customers to be treated this way. I have no idea how this corrupt company is even allowed to still be open. I just want my credit report fixed, so I can move on from this nightmare that is XXXX XXXX.
