Consumer complaint received 2020-10-04
Company: Debt Recovery Solutions, LLC
State: TX
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:
This account reported by Debt Recovery Solutions was disputed in XX/XX/XXXX. The reported debt was unable to be substantiated and the account was deleted from XXXX, XXXX and XXXX   reports. XXXX deleted the report XX/XX/2020, XXXX   deleted the account XX/XX/2020. FOUR MONTHS go by and all of a sudden I receive three consecutive emails from XXXX stating that a dispute that I filed on XX/XX/2020 had been Opened, Investigated and being Updated. I DID NOT open a dispute on this account from Debt Recovery Solutions in XX/XX/XXXX. This account was no longer on my credit report as of XX/XX/2020. Why would I open a dispute on an account that was not even on my credit report?? That hardly makes sense. So, my issue is two-fold. WHO opened this dispute under MY NAME as if they are representing me? That seems pretty fraudulent. In addition, I sent XXXX and XXXX letters reporting this account had now been re-inserted onto my profile and my concern regarding this dispute being opened, disputed and updated as if it were initiated by me? I also requested XXXX  and XXXX send me the information pertaining to this account that has allowed them to certify that this account has been verified, as is my right to know what is being reported. ANYONE CAN SEND YOU AN INVOICE STATING YOU OWE THEM MONEY. SOMEONE, SOMEWHERE HAS TO PROVIDE PROOF. XXXX   and XXXX responded by sending a dispute update simply stating the account was certified as verified, No additional information to substantiate the reported debt, AGAIN. I sent Debt Recovery Solutions a request for validation as well and have yet to  receive a response by them, that was in XX/XX/2020. It absolutely baffles me that these consumer protectors have very little regard to actually protecting the consumers and that XXXX and XXXX   blatantly and repeatedly violate regulations set forth by the FCRA. Besides the violations and possible fraudulent misrepresentation from XXXX mentioned above, XXXX is reporting the account information incorrectly anyways. At what point will XXXX be held accountable for their violations and the destruction they continue to do to my credit with such erroneous reporting? The inaccurate reporting by XXXX and XXXX is preventing me, a single mother with a single income household, from obtaining credit and has directly caused me to be unable to purchase a home for my children and myself. When is it that XXXX  will be held accountable for their negligent and Fraudulent activity? I have contacted lawyers and there are several offers for representation specifically due to the repeated, multiple violations in their reporting and their negligence in correcting their errors and continuing to cause damage after being informed ( multiple times ) of the errors in which they are reporting.

Company response to consumer: Closed with explanation
