Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I called phoenix financial because I had received a collection letter in close likeness to my mother 's name with my kids names attached to the debt. I called and tried to explain and was hung up on after asking to speak to the supervisor. I called back twice and asked for a supervisor and was hung up on by XXXX XXXX twice. I finally spoke to XXXX XXXX who was also very difficult when I explained that they had the wrong debt connected to the wrong person. This is not how people should be treated when trying to clear up something that could effect their life.

Complaint:
I purchased a vehicle on XX/XX/2023 from J.D. Byrider. The next day XX/XX/2023, I started to experience issues with the car while driving. I heard loud sounds so I reach out to XXXX and let her know the issues the issues that I was having with the car. They had me to bring the car back to them on XX/XX/XXXX so that they could run a diagnostic check. They told me that they needed to order part to fix the car and to bring it back in once the part was in. On XX/XX/XXXX, I dropped off the car to them to make the repair. About XXXX hours later, they called me and told me that the car had been fixed. I picked up the car that day and later that evening the sounds started again. Let them know that the car was doing the same thing. On XX/XX/XXXX, the car started running hot. I reached out to them and told them that I would like my money back because this car is a " lemon ''. They told me that I could not get my money back so I asked to placed in a different vehicle and again they told me that they could not do that either. They kept the car over 7 days and said that the car was fixed again but I heard the sounds again. They stated that they could not hear the sounds, although the sounds were obvious, so they didn't know how to fix the car. They stated that they would like to cancel the deal. I dropped off the car. On XX/XX/XXXX, I returned the car to them. I was told that since I disputed the down payment, I had to pay or they won't fix the car. The XXXX was adamant about not fixing the car or giving my down payment back. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received my down payment back from my dispute however a repossession was placed on my credit report. I question them about why they put a repossession on my credit and they stated that since I abandoned the vehicle it becomes a repossession although the vehicle was in their possession for repairs.

Complaint:
It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many information, accounts or items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA the 3 credit bureaus are required by law to remove & block any accounts or information which is found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please remove these files.

If they do not provide any records & claim the item is verified please understand I will seek legal action. I do not take kindly to games nor does my attorney.

Complaint:
I am filing this complaint as my right under FCRA XXXX and fair credit and billings act have been violated for these XXXX accounts XXXX XXXX XXXX Account number XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX Account number XXXX. I am requesting all XXXX credit bureaus to provide full validation and what give them the right to collect on this account? I have made numerous attempts to resolve this issue by certified mail.

Please provide better explanation and proof so I can timely take care of. Additionally, I see this account as having a charge off so the balance is not accurate. As per FRCA law, all information must be accurate, no errors and verifiable. This is lacking in all three areas. 
Please direct the XXXX bureaus to conduct full investigation into this matter and not to use XXXX party vendors to purchase my information which I have opted out of. If they do, please provide the XXXX party vendors so I may contact them to see why they have violated the release of my personal information without my consent and especially when I have opted out.
