State: FL
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
In XX/XX/XXXX, I was forced to declare Chapter XXXX due to some extreme circumstances in my personal life. At the time, I had a XXXX card with a balance of {$20000.00} that was included in the bankruptcy. In XX/XX/XXXX, I had the Chapter XXXX bankruptcy dismissed. 

I contacted all the credit card companies I owed money to and negotiated a settlement amount with them directly. XXXX was the only creditor still showing my bankruptcy as " active '' for 8 months after the dismissal. I took me the next 8 months and many phone calls to finally resolve that. Finally in XX/XX/XXXX I was told by XXXX to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to arrange a settlement amount. 

I did this and on XX/XX/XXXX I received an email from XXXX with the agreed upon settlement amount that we had discussed over the phone. I paid that amount, {$6100.00}, to XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and have a receipt from them for that payment. 

XXXX is still showing on my TransUnion credit report that I owe {$20000.00}. The payment has NEVER been accurately reflected on my TransUnion report. 

In XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted an online dispute to TranUnion about this matter. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter in response from TransUnion stating that the XXXX information was " Verified as accurate ''. 

I had seen an increase in my XXXX  credit score when the amount was paid to XXXX and at that time XXXX  was reporting that it was Paid/Charge Off with a XXXX balance. Within the past couple of weeks, I got an alert from XXXX  that TransUnion had reported negative information to them and now that XXXX  account is showing up as " Charged Off '' with a balance of {$20000.00} on my XXXX   credit report. My XXXX credit score plummeted over 50 points because of this. 

This erroneous reporting of information has negatively affected my creditworthiness. 

I met with a mortgage lender back in XX/XX/XXXX and was planning to purchase a home in XX/XX/XXXX. This false reporting is causing great damage to me. I no longer qualify for a loan because of this. I will be unable to buy a home/obtain a mortgage because of this. I am unable to qualify for ANY credit because of this. I am requesting that this XXXX account be COMPLETELY removed from my report with ALL credit reporting agencies. 

If I am unable to have this request met by XXXX, I have been advised to seek out the help of an attorney that specializes in such matters and pursue damages. I am not a litigious person and would prefer not to do that if I can just get this resolved and get this off my credit once and for all. 

I am providing proof that this amount was paid to XXXX as per XXXX 's instructions.
