Complaint:
I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction and concern regarding a persistent issue related to my credit accounts with XXXX XXXX. Specifically, I have encountered multiple attempts to tie up an account that is correctly reported as open with 3 credit bureaus but inaccurately reported as a collection account with another credit bureau. 

This situation has caused considerable confusion, stress, and damage to my creditworthiness, and I am seeking your immediate assistance to rectify these discrepancies. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened XX/XX/ Balance : {$0.00} - Tied Up Issue Description : One of my XXXX XXXX credit accounts is correctly reported as open and in good standing in other Credit Bureaus, as reflected in my credit report. However, this same account is erroneously reported as a collection account, as shown in my credit report. This inconsistency has severely impacted my credit score, making it challenging for me to secure favorable credit terms and loans. 

I have made multiple attempts to resolve this issue by contacting XXXX XXXX 's customer service, providing documentation and proof of the account 's open status, and requesting that the accurate information be reflected on all credit bureaus ' reports. Despite my efforts, the issue persists, and my credit profile continues to be adversely affected. 

I believe that this situation not only violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) but also reflects negatively on XXXX XXXX XXXX commitment to providing accurate and reliable credit reporting. 


To address this issue promptly and to ensure compliance with the FCRA, I kindly request the following actions : Investigate and verify the accuracy of the account information reported to credit bureaus, particularly the discrepancy between the Credit Bureaus. 

Correct the reporting error with 3 Credit Bureaus to reflect the accurate status of the account as open and in good standing.

Provide written documentation of the results of your investigation, including confirmation of the correction made withCredit Bureaus. 

Notify the Credit Bureaus and other relevant credit reporting agencies of the corrected information to ensure uniform and accurate reporting across all credit reports. 

Ensure that this issue does not recur in the future and implement measures to prevent similar inaccuracies in credit reporting. 

Failure to address this matter promptly and in accordance with the FCRA may compel me to seek legal remedies to rectify these inaccuracies, including pursuing damages for any harm caused to my credit profile and personal finances. 

I have enclosed copies of relevant documents, including credit reports. I kindly request for your assistance to correct this account in good standing.
