Complaint:
A few weeks ago I sent letters to all 3 credit bureaus regarding some items on my credit report which I know are not accurate which is a violation of the FCRA and FDCPA and you must abide by the law. Everything I have provided in my letters is true and accurate to my knowledge. Ive received emails and letters saying Im using a 3rd party which is incorrect because I am the one sending my letters out and filing this complaint with no help from a credit repair company or 3rd party. The CRAs are in violation of my rights due to not providing a notice of dispute and for failure to communicate to me that I disputed stuff on my credit. I request these accounts to be deleted from my credit asap or I will take legal action and hire a lawyer. I want to purchase a house soon and this holding me back. 

I would like the items I disputed in my letters to be handled accordingly based on the reasons that I put in my letters.

Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
Please be advised that as of XX/XX/2023, as listed on my most recently reviewed consumer report, there are unverified accounts listed. I have received mail from various companies seeking to collect an alleged debt on behalf of another company. I have never heard of nor done any business affiliation with them. I've requested VALIDATION of debt but instead, I have received Verification of the debt. It has become increasing clear that they are being willfully negligent in rectifying my affairs. Over the past year I have made subsequent attempts to have these accounts reasonably investigated in accordance with both the Fair Credit Reporting Act and Fair Debt Collection Practice Act.

Here is what the law states about investigations : 623. ( b ) Duties of furnishers of information upon notice of dispute.

( 1 ) In general. After receiving notice pursuant to section 611 ( a ) ( 2 ) [ 1681i ] of a dispute with regard to the completeness or accuracy of any information provided by a person to a consumer reporting agency, the person shall ( A ) conduct an investigation with respect to the disputed information ; ( B ) review all relevant information provided by the consumer reporting agency pursuant to section 611 ( a ) ( 2 ) [ 1681i ] ; ( C ) report the results of the investigation to the consumer reporting agency ; ( D ) if the investigation finds that the information is incomplete or inaccurate, report those results to all other consumer reporting agencies to which the person furnished the information and which compile and maintain files on consumers on a nationwide basis ; and ( E ) if an item of information disputed by a consumer is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified after any reinvestigation under paragraph ( 1 ), for purposes of reporting to a consumer reporting agency only, as appropriate, based on the results of the reinvestigation promptly : ( i ) modify that item of information ; ( ii ) delete that item of information ; or ( iii ) permanently block the reporting of that item of information.

Complaint:
I was a patron of XXXX XXXX years ago. The service was terrible, so I paid off my account and ported my number to another service provider in XXXX. I went to the XXXX XXXX Office, told the associates I wanted to port my number to another provider. They checked my account to make sure I didn't owe a balance. ( You can only port if you don't owe a balance on your account! ) Then they called the new service provider to give them the port code. They were supposed to give me a XXXX dollar gift card for turning in my XXXX, as well as over XXXX bucks in rebated fees for the poor service, never received any of it. I called and called. That should have been the end of my business with XXXX XXXX, months later they tried to bully me into paying them more money for a bill I didn't owe. I don't know who this I.C. System Company is? How can these people put anything on my credit bureau, I have not heard of them or done business with them ever! They need to remove their record from my report, they know absolutely nothing about this ordeal!

Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
The scenario with this card is it was a back up card I rarely used. I opened this card in XXXX. I have never made a late payment on this card or had any negative experience with it previously. In XXXX or XXXX of XXXX there was an annual fee assessed of ~ {$30.00} and I was not made aware of this fee/bill. Apparently I was late in XXXX of XXXX, leading to XXXX of XXXX ( now 60 days late ) because of this fee. To be clear I had no balance on this card at the time and this fee was generated from Barclay 's Bank. In XXXX I discovered this error, called and paid the fee and cancelled the card so this would not happen again. I was very upset my relationship after 31 years ended on this note. What I am asking for is the removal of this 30 and 60 day late from all 3 Credit Bureaus. This unfortunate incident dropped my credit score in excess of XXXX points ) - : I have attached the account PDF with details on my payment history and account description. This has drastically affected my financial situation as it impacts my insurance costs, increases interest rates and overall risk factors. I would be very grateful for any assistance with this matter.

Complaint:
I received a letter in the mail after moving from XXXX, XXXX to XXXX, XXXX. It was dated XXXX, XXXX, XXXX. I did not receive the letter until after the New Year. 

After I opened the letter I needed more information. It stated that I owed, {$2300.00}. 
At this time I began researching what I could do as I couldn't trust that I somehow owed a company, $ XXXXThere was nothing on my credit report file on this debt and it stated that, " Your account with Advance Financial is severely delinquent '' On XX/XX/XXXX I sent a debt verification letter through certified mail and it was delivered to the address : Advance FinanciaXXXX Customer Retention, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TN XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I received no verification response from the company via mail or other form of communication. 

I then called the company phone number, XXXX, on XX/XX/XXXX. They had all my personal information on file including my social security number. I then request them to remove the debt from my social security number because they did not respond to my debt verification letter within the legal timeframe of 30 days. I stated that they did not meet the debt verification laws and they must remove the debt from my name. They refused to remove the debt, asked me to email them documentation and I completed their request on XX/XX/XXXX immediately after the phone call. 

I emailed them copies of the USPS stamped certified mail receipt, the verification letter that was sent, the tracking number of the mail that was sent, and I did not get a response. It is now almost to the end of XXXX and they refuse to remove the debt as they are legally responsible to do.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
I am writing to dispute the accuracy of the information being reported on my credit report by the listed creditors. I have already disputed these items with the credit bureaus, but the creditors have failed to provide verified information in response. As such, I am seeking your assistance in enforcing my legal rights under the FCRA and FACTACT. 

The inaccurate reporting by the creditors is causing serious harm to my financial wellbeing and has been affecting my ability to secure loans or credit. These inaccuracies have caused my credit score to be artificially low, making it difficult for me to obtain credit at reasonable rates. This has also resulted in me being denied credit opportunities and has made it difficult for me to obtain the financing I need to make important purchases. 

For instance, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX  ) has been reporting inaccurate account type and monthly payment information, which is a clear violation of the FCRA. Similarly, XXXX XXXX XXXX  has been reporting inaccurate account type and monthly payment information. XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX have all been inconsistent in their reporting of account type and monthly payment information across different credit bureaus, which is a violation of FACTACT. 

These inaccuracies have had a significant impact on my life. For example, I have been trying to secure a mortgage to purchase a home, but due to these inaccuracies, I have been denied the loan. Additionally, I have been unable to obtain credit for other important expenses, such as a car loan or a student loan, which has further hindered my ability to improve my financial situation. 

Therefore, I request that you assist me in enforcing my legal rights under the FCRA and FACTACT. Specifically, I request that the listed creditors remove these unverified collection accounts from my credit report. I believe this will help me improve my credit score, which will, in turn, enable me to obtain the credit and financing that I need to live a better life. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint:
The date of first delinquency for a closed XXXX account ending XXXX is incorrect as reported by Experian. Closed accounts stay on-record for up to XXXX ( XXXX ) years beyond account closure. The date of first delinquency furnished for this account in my Experian credit file causes the duration over which the account reports to be extended by XXXX ( XXXX ) years beyond what it should with Experian. Whereas XXXX alleges the account was charged off on or around XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, and whereas, the date of first delinquency would be within the one-hundred XXXX ( XXXX ) days prior to that action, Experian reports the account is scheduled to stay on-record until XX/XX/XXXX -- that is nearly XXXX ( XXXX ) years beyond which it should remain.The account was wrongfully charged off, and the methods XXXX used to try and rectify the situation resulted in XXXX reporting additional false/misleading/inaccurate information that has and will continue to harm me as a consumer. Not only are the acts and practices of XXXX unfair and unlawful, but they are additionally abusive because I now must endure hardship resulting from XXXX negligence well beyond what is legal under statute unless this account/tradeline is removed because all attempts to get XXXX and Experian to even correct the Date of First Delinquency have failed.
