Company: Phoenix Financial Services LLC
State: NV
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: I do not know
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive notice of right to dispute

Complaint:
I spoke with a lady named XXXX from Phoenix Financial. I paid the {$140.00} in full on XX/XX/XXXX even though I wasnt made aware that this account existed until it hit my credit. She assured me that I would receive a paid in full letter that would also state that they would remove the collection from my credit report via email within an hour or so. I didnt receive anything. I contacted her back the next day and she said that it takes 24 hours for me to receive the letter. I didnt receive it. I called back and she informed me that it takes 48 hours to receive the letter. Needless to say, I have yet to receive the paid in full letter. I also am worried that they will not remove the collection from my report as promised. I also spoke with a supervisor named XXXX XXXX, who was extremely rude and unhelpful. She didnt want to provide her name nor did she want to provide me with the letter that I requested. A lady named XXXX was extremely helpful with my request for information. All I wanted was to ensure that this situation will be handled as I have worked hard on establishing a great credit history and I dont want it ruined for a debt that I have no clue about that is only {$140.00} that has now cost my score 70 points.

Company: CL Holdings LLC

Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint:
I am in receipt of your companys letter informing me you are handling the collection of the account mentioned above. However after reviewing my records, I am unable to find any documentation of any contractual relationship between XXXX XXXX XXXX. and myself, XXXX XXXX which makes you a person entitled to enforce a commercial claim against me. This is not a request for any verification or validation.

This is a request for proof of contract, to substantiate your claim. Therefore, provide me a certified copy of the original contract, with my signature, specifically naming your company as a person entitled to enforce a commercial claim against me. Certification can be done through the presence of a notary public who duly swear the copy made is in fact a copy of the original paper contract in question.

Your failure to respond and provide strict proof of contract will constitute your tactic agreement that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX are not entitled to enforce a claim against me. In the event you continue your collection efforts against me without providing proof of contract, I may do one or more of the following : 1. File a complaint with the Attorney General. 2. File a complaint with the FTC, 3. File a lawsuit against you in U.S. Courts for Harassment, fraud and invasion of privacy and attempt extortion.

You have 30 days to provide strict proof of contract. In the event you can not provide strict proof of contract, you must cease and desist all collection effects and immediately remove my account from your office database. In the event you transfer this account to an attorney without providing proof of contract, he will be immediately reported the STATE BAR ASSOCIATION and the PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY FUND for code of ethics violations.

Please check the age date on this account. Look up DOLA ( Date of last activity ) and see the Statue of Limitations by Law makes this account unable to be collected. Please Cease and Desist all collection efforts and communications. You may inform me that this account has been removed from your office files and records as requested within the 30 days.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: DE
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX is manipulating my credit files in violation of federal law. Trans Union and XXXX   are complicit in this manipulation. 

I have attached two copies of my Trans Union file ( XXXX is the same ) showing that XXXX XXXX had closed the account in XX/XX/XXXX. They changed that report in XXXX to move the closed date to XX/XX/XXXX. This is negligent non-compliance at best and willful non-compliance at the worst. I did not redeem this repossession nor did I rewrite the balance in any way. The change of the closed date dropped my score 50 points because it now appears that this is a recently closed collection. 

I already have a complain against XXXX XXXX for violation of the FCRA and FDCPA. ( Complaint number XXXX ) They had reported a balance of {$71.00} as late as XX/XX/XXXX. But  when I tried to pay it, they said the balance was {$1500.00} and settled it for more than {$500.00}. Clearly a violation of the added funds portion of the FDCPA TRANS UNION and XXXX  allowing this manipulation of federal law is definitely negligent non-compliance
