State: GA
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
On or about XX/XX/XXXX, I inquired with XXXX by providing a letter, asking if they would remove derogatory information from my credit profile which is reported to the three credit agencies. The attached letter will provide the background information for my request to remove the derogatory information, but I will provide some brief context. 

I submitted a few request to the credit agencies disputing the accuracy of what was being reported to my credit report as I believe it was not accurate. 

I purchased a vehicle in XXXX, which XXXX financed. In XXXX, XXXX took repossession of the vehicle because I was unable to payment. I received notification the vehicle would be repossessed. The vehicle was sold for more than what it was worth ; thus, I received a check for the excess. XXXX did not follow Georgia 's O.C.G.A. 10-1-36 law as it relates to notification where the the creditor must notify you of the time and place your car has been sold. 

I reached out to XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX to ask if they would be willing to remove the derogatory information from my credit report and after speaking with a representative of the CEO of XXXX, the young lady stated that would not be possible. She said by law they are required to report to the credit agency which I indicated was not the case, but a choice. A choice that I signed allowing XXXX to conduct when I signed the vehicle purchase agreement. The young lady also stated that the derogatory information would fall off my report in XXXX of XXXX. 

I take full accountability for not paying my obligation ; however, had I known there was a possibility of me retrieving my vehicle back, then I would have taken that option rather than damage my credit for 7 years. 

My dispute is in accordance to Georgia 's O.C.G.A. 10-1-36 law, the repossession process was not followed completely by XXXX ; especially since they were unable to provide the letter indicating the date/time/location of the sale to me.

Company: Express Recovery Services, Inc.
State: UT
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Medical debt
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint:
Today,XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX Utah time, I recieved a summons from Express Recovery Services of XXXX XXXX, UT. At some point unknown to me, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX UT, hired Express Recovery Services to collect a medical bill debt from my wife that happened on either XX/XX/XXXXor XX/XX/XXXX. The problem is that we did not know Express Recovery Services or XXXX XXXX XXXX  were trying to collect for a bill due to my wife and I never recieved any kind of notice about the bill. Also, after some research of my own, I discovered that Express Recovery Services violated the " Notifying the Debtor '' clause of the FDCPA ( Fair Debt Collection Policies Act ) by not giving us a 30-day notice that there was a debt to be paid, the amount of debt, and ways to resolve it. Express Recovery Services, is suing my wife for {$520.00} plus fees and myself for {$220.00} plus fees. I believe that they are asking for more than the original amount and why I am included is wrong because I did not receive any medical services from XXXX XXXX XXXX. My wife was fully covered by medical insurance at the time of the service and the bill was most likely paid, but XXXX XXXX XXXX  sent us to collections anyway. We believe they are wrong for taking us to court because we had no knowledge of the debt.

Complaint:
Six fraudulent transactions appeared in two separate Bank of America accounts, all occurred XXXX/XXXX/XXXX # 1 from savingsaccount for {$1000.00} # 2 from savings account for {$3000.00} # 3 from savings account for {$3000.00} # 4 from savings account for {$3000.00} # 5 from savings account for {$4000.00} # 6 from checking account for {$1000.00} I immediately called the bank 's customer service line XXXX, but the fraud department was already closed ( I became aware of these transactions just before XXXX XXXX Eastern time ). 

The following morning I called the fraud department, filed claims for both affected accounts, froze said accounts and canceled debit card. I then visited my local bank branch to open a new checking account to which I transferred my remaining balance. I then visited my local police department and filed a police report. 

After two business days I obtained a copy of the police incident report which I faxed to the bank 's fraud department. Another two days later I called the fraud department to inquire whether the fax was received - it was not yet tied to my account but the agent I spoke to made notes of the incident number and municipality of the report.

After another 5 business days or thereabouts, I sent a certified letter to Bank of America fraud claims department containing my personal statement of the events, printouts of my account statements, and a copy of the police report. 

I followed up with weekly calls for updates on the status of my claims and confirm receipt of the materials provided by me.
