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

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2021 I sent a letter re : inaccurate and unknown things on my credit report. It has been over 60 days and I have not received a response yet. I feel like I am being ignored and taken advantage of regarding my disputes. Section 611 ( a ) clearly states that a failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report. It has been over 60 days so they should be promptly deleted.I am distressed that you have included the information below in my credit profile and that you have failed to maintain reasonable procedures in your operations to assure maximum possible accuracy in the credit reports you publish. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information. Furthermore, In accordance with The Fair Credit Reporting Act, Public law 91-506, Title VI, Section 611, Subsection A-D, please provide the names and business addresses of each individual with whom you verified the above, so that I may follow up. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be re-investigated. This has really caused me a lot of stress and strain and I demand that these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation. My information was also impacted by the Equifax data breach and may have gotten into the hands of the wrong person.

Complaint:
I took out a vehicle loan from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  for a XXXX  XXXX XXXX in XXXX of XXXX  and finished paying the loan in XXXX of XXXX. I remember at a point seeing that I was marked late for the final payment I made in person, which I reached out to the bank about. I was advised that it was an error and no payments were late. On my XXXX, the account is marked as PAID/CLOSED/NEVER LATE but when I check Equifax & XXXX, I see that the same payment I complained about in XXXX  is still present on my report and calculated as a negative mark. Its confusing because I dont see it on all Bureaus and I was advised that I had no late payment.

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX XXXX was asked to verify a medical collection listed on my credit report. I was expecting a bill to be mailed to me or confirmation to come directly from the hospital they had listed XXXX XXXX. Instead XXXX XXXX XXXX sent me a medical bill showing personal health information as well as a copy of my insurance card. I feel so violated that a debt collector can get my PHI without my consent considering my own kids wouldnt be able to without my consent. According to 15 U.S. Code 1681a ( i ) ( 2 ) - Medical information about the consumer can not be furnished. Is this company above the law or are my consumer rights revoked? 15 USC 1681 section 602 states I have a right to privacy.
