State: FL
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:
Good Evening, For the past several months I have reached out to Equifax in reference to an unverified account being reported on my credit report. I have reached out to Equifax via certified mail on XX/XX/2020, XX/XX/2020 and XX/XX/2020. I have requested this collection to be deleted on several occasions due to inaccuracies. This account has not been able to be verified and they have not sent the documents they claim to have used to verify such account, even after my several written requests. My rights are being violated by Equifax for failure to do a thorough investigation upon my request and ignoring my requests of providing me with the documents they are using to verify. I disputed with XXXX  and XXXX  as well and they were unable to verify the account therefor it was deleted. In addition, Equifax is reporting inaccurate information on the account. It is reporting past due balance and 120 days late payment history which makes no sense on a closed collection account. This error is causing me money and great stress as it is affecting my credit worthiness. I am requesting Equifax to delete this account immediately due to inaccurate reporting.

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

Complaint:
Hello Rep ; I was shocked when I reviewed my credit report and found that you're reporting a collection on my credit from an account that i never owned. I actually had sent an IdentityTheft affidavit in regards to this to the original creditor and it was removed. How come are you still reporting this now? It was originally from SYNCB/OLDNAVYDC, and i sent all the required paperwork that they had asked me. Please remove this collection from my credit once and for all. I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature. 6. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity.

Company: PORTFOLIO RECOVERY ASSOCIATES INC
State: TX
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint:
On or around XX/XX/2018, I contacted Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC to inquire about them honoring a settlement letter I received from them in regards to my XXXX  debt account # ending in XXXX. After spending almost an hour on the phone with the representative, we agreed to auto debit my account for {$570.00} instead of the {$1200.00} owed. I received a my confirmation letter, checked my account a few weeks later and realized my account was not debited. I sent the agreed amount of {$570.00}. Rather than reporting to the credit bureaus that my debt was settled or closed, they reported it as a payment still owing {$700.00} which negatively impacted my credit score. When I spoke with the representative, he stated that the debit did not go through and they weren't honoring the settlement. He could not tell me why the debit wasn't processed, although I have proof that the funds were in my account and available. He refused to honor the agreement. I believe that Portfolio Recovery never intended to honor the settlement and it was a fraudulent collection tactic. I can provide a copy of my money order stub and bank statement as well reflecting fund availabilities for dates preceding and proceeding my call to Portfolio Recovery.

Complaint:
I am reaching out to you because of my concern for the accuracy and honesty of your company 's data. As per FCRA section 611, it is imperative that we have accurate records on file with those who rely upon them most- which includes not just customers but also potential lenders or employers! After doing some research into Metro 2 compliance standards as well ( since they are rather new ), I've found there may be some inaccuracies in reporting going forward if these issues aren't promptly resolved ; would love any feedback possible before taking action against us later down this road together My credit report is a representation of my financial standing and I take pride in keeping it up-to date. With that said, you have the responsibility to keep my credit profile and report accurate, authentic, complete! Therefore I need you to provide me with verification of everything within my credit report in a TIMELY manner. The information in my credit report and below is inaccurate. It never had any verification, compliance with reporting laws by means or even credibility -- so now I'm going through the process of correcting this oversight permanently! The inaccuracies that are currently on my report are having a serious negative impact to my quality of life! The data on my credit report is of high importance and is currently not a representation of who I am financially because its inaccurate. I'm demanding accurate documentation so you can document me- the person who deserves status in society- correctly!! Please make sure that all inaccuracies are removed immediately and that I am furnished with a new credit report upon the completion of your investigations into the details of my credit records.

Complaint:
Regardless of the multiple written requests, the ITEMS listed below are still reporting on my credit report which is a violation of FCRA. The Bureaus failed to comply with Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC sections 1681i within the time declared by law, they failed to properly investigate the matter by using a third party as their verification provider and have continued reporting the unconfirmed & unverified information. Given all my attempts to address it directly with 3 CREDIT BUREAUS, they are willfully negligent and non-complying with federal statutes & I need this matter handled immediately. Please remove the items below in my file : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : {$0.00} ; XXXX XXXX Balance : {$1300.00} ; XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance : {$1300.00} ; XXXX XXXX Balance : {$0.00} ; XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$1100.00} ; XXXX XXXX Balance : {$470.00} ; XXXX  XXXX Balance : {$9900.00} ; XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance : {$1000.00} ; XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint:
My auto loan was paid in full. Instead of my score increasing, the credit bureaus said I was a liability to Lenders by paying one of my oldest debts off too soon, and therefore my score was actually decreased by XXXX points on Experian and XXXX points with XXXX 
As a consumer I should never be penalized for paying an installment off early considering the high interest rate. 
I never missed one payment and Im falsely penalized for paying my account timely. 
The credit reporting agencies are bias and need to be more closely monitored to combat their inaccuracies and prejudices.
