Complaint:
History : We moved to XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. They lied to us about the savings we would see, the coverage we would have, and the bonuses we would receive if we switched over. I made FCC complaints and over the course of 4 months tried to get this resolved. In XXXX we switched over to XXXX. XXXX refused to port my number for 2 days, leaving me without a phone and costing me {$15000.00} in commissions. I filed another FCC complaint. Our agreement with XXXX said if we left them, we still had to pay the monthly cost of leasing the equipment. However, they then demanded the entire payment at one time. I would try to talk to them, but they refused to talk to me, saying they could only speak to my husband, who was the primary holder of the account. Over the course of the last two months, he has played phone tag with them trying to resolve our issues with them. 

Reason for this complaint : yesterday we received two pieces of mail. The first was from a collection agency, saying that XXXX had handed over our account to them. The second was from XXXX ( both letters were dated XX/XX/XXXX). XXXX was demanding full payment of the lease amount by XX/XX/XXXX or they would hand the case over to collections. My husband called the collection company and found out that XXXX had emailed, on two separate occasions, my XXXX year old son to demand payment. My son 's email is not associated with the XXXX account. My husband 's email and my email are. XXXX did this before during the 4 months that we battled with them ( although it was calling my XXXX year old sons ). We clearly let them know at that time which phone numbers belonged to who, and ensured the only emails on the account were my husband 's and mine. They did not call my husband, or I about the account. They did not mail anything to our home prior to XX/XX/XXXX. They purposely contacted a minor, multiple times, and made no good faith effort to contact either of the adults on the account.

Complaint:
I do n't understand how I can be submitting multiple pages of proof to the credit bureaus proving that these accounts are inaccurate and must be removed and yet, TD Auto did not remove these accounts! Congress clearly states in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that the burden of proof is on the creditors and the credito bureaus and NOT me so how come nothing isbeing done to assist me? What other proof is required of me to show that these items are not reporting per federal law? I 'm attaching the lawsuit that clearly spells this out as well as my credit report and my actual disputes. I do n't understand who allows them to do this ( governement, etc. ) but this is a complete violation of my rights under the FCRA! 

TD Auto XXXX Status makes no sense, delete this immediately : XXXX and XXXX : closed/XXXX : open All 3 bureaus should be reporting the same information. What also doesnt make sense is that XXXX and XXXX report a monthly payment of {$0.00} while XXXX reports {$1000.00}! 

TD Auto XXXX Im at a loss on how you can still be reporting this incorrectly when you had ample proof that this was incorrect. You are required to delete this immediately : Balance : XXXX $ XXXX $ XXXX {$19000.00} TD Auto XXXX Im at a loss on how you can still be reporting this incorrectly when you had ample proof that this was incorrect. You are required to delete this immediately : Balance : XXXX $ XXXX $ XXXX {$68000.00} XXXX due : XXXX and XXXX $ XXXX {$0.00}

State: MD
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments
Sub-issue: Problem during payment process

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I made a payment of {$530.00} to my credit card. The payment was received and shows as received on the statement and it additionally left my checking account. The Payment was placed on a " PYMTMONYHOLD ''. I called in that day to inquire as to why the payment was on a hold and the representative told me that they needed information from my other bank. I then called my other bank and they informed me that the money was transferred to TD and left my account so there was nothing to be done on their end. I called again on Thursday and spoke to a different representative that informed me the previous rep had lied to me about why the payment was placed on a hold. She told me that the payment had in fact been received and they were not waiting on any information from my bank and that the payment was simply on hold and would be released in 7-10 business days. My mother then informed that my line of credit and cash should not be tied up if I did indeed make the payment and the payment was received. I called again XX/XX/XXXX and spoke to " XXXX XXXX '' who could not answer any of my questions as to why the payment was on hold. He also refused to let me speak to someone higher up and simply repeated the same information I have on my credit card statement that it is a " Payment money hold ''. I make payments from this account every month and my money has only ever been " held '' twice. Before I did not know that they had a responsibility to release funds upon receiving payment, but now that I do feel taken advantage of because I am now without cash or a line of credit. My payment is also due by XX/XX/XXXX and they are holding my payment until XX/XX/XXXX and have essentially frozen my account until the next payment cycle, and has also left me with limited cash.

Complaint:
For some reason I have been ignored about the disputes I put in about the incorrect information on my credit report. I sent my letter on XX/XX/2021 and havent heard a peep from them. I am very upset that theres incorrect information on my report and Im even more upset that I have been ignored. I understand mistakes happen thats why I have been very patient and now I need these items removed. I will file for litigation due to distress if these items arent removed because it has been well over 60 days. I know that credit bureaus must respond within 30 days and its going on 90 days no response. You failed to maintain reasonable procedures in your operations to assure maximum ACCURACY in the reports you publish so please delete immediately. Im getting very impatient and I will not wait another 30 days.

Complaint:
Hello, I hope this message finds you well. A couple of months I reviewed my credit profile and seen inaccurate information regarding an alleged collection XXXX  XXXX. The collection agency annoyingly contacted me even it is already After XXXX XXXX. or before XXXX XXXX. This violates FDCPA Section 805 ( a ) ( 1 ). Prior to submitting this complaint, I have sent over 3 letters to the Buraus to have them send the proper validation of this alleged collection. I have even requested documents to be provided to prove that the payments were indeed in collection. However, all bureaus have avoided me. This makes me angry my consumer rights are being violated! I have the right to dispute any misleading information. I saw a ton of inaccuracies as well ( different open/close dates ). Doesn't this go against the FCRA Laws?

Re : Violation of 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( c ) Verifiable Proof/Documentation of My Non-Existing Authorization/Signature DEMANDED Name :  XXXX XXXX Last Four Digits of Social Security : XXXX  Violation of 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( c ) : Unauthorized/Unlawful Hard Inquiry Offending Company : XXXX Date Placed on Credit Report : XX/XX/2018 Credit Bureau : Experian Dear Sir or Madam : I write this Complaint in a good faith effort to resolve the issue of this unauthorized/unlawful inquiry referenced above. Please note that this is not an acknowledgment or acceptance of said inquiry, as I did not seek credit with XXXX. Nor is this a waiver of my right to dispute this inquiry pursuant to and as allowed by 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( The Fair Debt  Collection Practices Act ). 

I recently received a copy of my Experian credit report. The credit report includes this unauthorized/unlawful credit inquiry by XXXX. I understand that, pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( c ) governing transactions that are not initiated by consumer, XXXX and Experian, as the credit reporting agency, are prohibited from placing an inquiry on my credit file unless I have authorized it. As I absolutely have not authorized anyone at XXXX to review my credit file, please ensure XXXX   and Experian remove this offending inquiry from my credit file/report as it is damaging my credit rating and hindering my ability to establish credit. 

I have attempted to resolve this matter directly with XXXX and Experian to no avail. Therefore, I am contacting you, as the designated federal agency to assist consumers/victims of such Violations, to investigate and finally resolve the matter so that my credit file/report is accurate. 

I thank you for your sincere consideration of this matter, and look forward to a prompt and amicable resolution of this matter. 

Kindest regards, XXXX XXXX
