Consumer complaint received 2018-07-25
Company: Midwest Recovery Systems
State: CA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Payday loan debt
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint:
I had a payday loan from an online lender, XXXX XXXX XXXX, which originated XX/XX/XXXX and went into default that same year. They wrote the debt off and it must have been sold to Midwest Recovery Systems who are now re-aging this old debt. Under California law, the statute of limitations is 4 years - this debt is over 6 years old. This  company has been calling me non stop, sent me an email and have reported this debt as new debt with a start date of XX/XX/XXXX with the reporting bureaus, hence my Fico Score has taken a huge hit - they are clearly trying to re age an old uncollectible debt. I would really appreciate your help in getting this resolved. 

Thank you,

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: IL
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
Bank of America credit card company closed our credit card in XXXX of XXXX because of delinquency. 

I do not have the statements from 10 years ago so I called and requested the statements from Bank of America. 

The representative told me she could see from " the notes '' that the account was closed and referred to their collection department on XX/XX/XXXX. 

She then referred me to the " recovery '' department who also told that the account was closed so long ago they don't have the statements any longer. The irony is almost too much. She reconfirmed the date Bank of America closed the account following past due balances, XX/XX/XXXX. 

She also directed me to a fax number to direct my complaint. It is XXXX. I don't know who that is or where that number goes? I've been give that number in the past and have sent a written statement similar to this. 

After Bank of America closed my account, I paid Bank of America when I could but not consistently. After some years, the account was sold to a collection agency. The collection agency or Bank of America " re-aged '' the debt reporting the delinquency to reflect the date they acquired the debt, not the date of the original deliquency they are required to report. 

Per the FCRA, this item should have been removed from my credit report as of XX/XX/XXXX! It was not. 

I wrote Bank of America. I called Bank of America and the Collection Agency. They both blame the other telling me to call the other. I supplied all of this information to Bank of America who ironically is in full possession of the statements and the closing date. I hired a credit repair companies to address this. Still, Bank of America continues to confirm the re-aged date is accurate. You can see on my credit bureaus how many times I have tried to dispute this. 

Since we lost our jobs in XXXX, we have worked diligently to recover and repair our credit. We continue to pay this debt every month with a full understanding we owe the debt. But Bank of America and the 3 credit bureaus are conflating debt owed with reporting laws. 

We want to refinance our house. We want to buy a smaller house for retirement while interest rates are so low. We are running out of time. This is severely knee capping our effort to secure our finances for retirement. 

Between credit card companies and the credit bureaus, we can not move forward. This is illegal and unjust.
