Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes

Complaint:
I made written request to XXXX to remove any credit or identity freezes from account over one month ago. They have not replied and the freeze is still active. I applied for a loan at Drivetime through XXXX XXXX, the only thing holding me back is there request for my social security card because of a credit freeze that I told XXXX  to remove. The social security card I presented was the original I was issued after birth, and because it doesnt look like the new SS cards, I have wrongly been denied credit.

Issue: Closing your account
Sub-issue: Company closed your account

Complaint:
Having had a credit card for some years with American Express we decided that since we have retired we no longer had use of their credit card. I called to cancel the card and learned that we have XXXX plus points that we earned over the years but were never given any information about the points until now. XXXX plus points have a significant dollar value and they refused to issue the points to us. 
We feel that those were our earned points and we should have them issued to us. 

Thank you,

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. I know this is a violation of the FCRA and FDCPA so they 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.

Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
. I intend to pursue litigation in accordance with the FCRA to seek relief and recover all monetary damages that I may be entitled to under Section 616 and Section 617 if the UNVERIFIED items listed below are not deleted immediately. A copy of this letter as well as copies of the three written letters sent to you previously will also become part of a formal complaint to the Federal Trade Commission and shall be used as evidence in pending litigation provided you fail to comply with this offer of settlement. 

Despite three written requests, the unverified items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditors documentation on file to verify that this information is mine and is correct. In the results of your investigations, you stated in writing that you verified that these items are being reported correctly? Who verified these accounts? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore you have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). Please be advised that under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to promptly DELETE all information which can not be verified. 

The law is very clear as to the Civil liability and the remedy available to me ( Section 616 & 617 ) if you fail to comply with Federal Law. I am a litigious consumer and fully intend on pursuing litigation in this matter to enforce my rights under the FCRA.

Company: National Credit Adjusters, LLC
State: MO
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: I do not know
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint:
Started receiving letters from National Credit Adjusters with offers to settle this debt. In late XX/XX/2020 I received a phone call from National Credit Adjusters wanting payment on this debt. I explained that I had never received any notification of this debt. I told them that I had received offers from them to settle the debt for a reduced amount but had never received any proof of this debt. After seeing the collection account on my credit report I sent National Credit Adjusters a letter on XX/XX/2020 with an offer to settle the debt if they removed the collection from my credit report. I did not receive a response from the company. I filed a dispute with all three credit bureaus about this collection. On Monday XX/XX/2020 I called National Credit Adjusters and explained that I did not receive a response to my letter and repeated my offer to settle this debt if they removed it from my credit report. I was told by a very rude lady that this company does not delete information. I explained that I did not believe this was my debt and I was only offering to send a payment to get the negative account off my credit report. I was told they would not do this. On Monday XX/XX/2020 I again called National Credit Adjusters and offered to settle this debt and was told they couldn't accept any payments from me because I disputed the account. I would have to send them a letter telling them to remove the dispute before they would even talk to me about a payment. I explained that I was disputing ownership of this account and only wanted to pay to get the account settled and reported as paid in full on my credit reports. I was then transfered to a voice mailbox. I left my contact information and explained that I wanted to settle the account. On Wednesday XX/XX/2020 I was contacted by a representative from National Credit Adjusters and was again told that they would not accept a settlement from me until I sent an email removing the dispute. I once again explained that I was disputing the account and was never sent any proof that this was my account I only wanted to settle it to get it off my credit report. They refused to allow me to settle the account. I would now like for this company to remove this account from all three credit bureaus and no longer contact me about this debt since they have failed to show proof of the debt and they refuse to allow me to make a payment.
