Consumer complaint received 2019-02-26
Company: TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS INC
State: AZ
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:
This is a complaint from XXXX XXXX against Transworld Systems Inc for Transworlds failure to provide requested information for the debt alleged. Consumer has received multiple demand letters and phone calls from Transworld regarding a debt that he does not recognize. Consumer is an XXXX veteran with a XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX, and this matter has been causing an immense amount of stress. Because of this, consumer sought legal counsel for the matter. On XX/XX/XXXX, consumer ( through legal counsel ) responded with a written request for documentation, including the following : a. Signed copy of the original contact ( s ) ; b. Any notice ( s ) of assignment or receipt of sale of the debt alleged ; c. Any notice ( s ) of delinquency ; d.  Ledgers/spreadsheets/accounting statements showing how the debt alleged was accrued ( including any fees and interest charges added to this debt ) ; e. A copy of your debt collection rights license ; f. Proof that you are licensed to collect this debt in Arizona ; and g. Any other documentation which tends to show validity. The letter requested that Transworld respond within 15 days in order to start resolving the matter in an expedient fashion to mitigate further aggravation of consumers illness. Consumer received no response, so a CFPB complaint was filed on XX/XX/XXXX ( XXXX ). In response to this complaint, TransWorld responded providing statements from the original account as validation. However, these statements do not address the concerns outlined in the complaint, and do not show ownership of this account by TransWorld. Creditor 's failure to respond to a consumer 's good faith request for documentation makes it impossible for the consumer to make an informed decision regarding the debt alleged. This is a violation of USC 1692, and other federal acts which require lenders and debt collectors to act in good faith and refrain from unfair deceptive or abusive acts.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Complaint:
HAPPY XXXX AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS! and how are you doing? Im not sure who to take this to anymore, but Ive disputed this account several times with both the original creditor and the credit reporting agencies accordingly and Ive attached everything to support my dispute. However, I continue to received a pre-template letter sent to me that its been verified and it REMAINS. How is it possible that this was verified if you continue to report incomplete, inconsistent, inaccurate, and unverifiable information on this account and a thorough and in-dept investigation. Ive disputed and I havent received anything as such, but it continues to be reported in violation of the consumer laws. 
Continues to report wrong balance, incorrect date of first delinquency, wrong date of last active, inconsistent payment status, high balance and actual balance is questionable, etc. I believe that section 609 of FCRA also allows me to ask for detail information about the account and how you indeed investigated and your detail process. Im extremely upset and shocked about the way this charge-off account is reporting on my credit report which continues to report with incomplete, inconsistent and unverifiable Info. How can you honestly say that you verified as it being accurate? This was NOT verified! I am requesting this investigation under the authorization of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 623. ( a ) ( 8 ) ability of consumer to dispute information directly with the furnisher.

What I am disputing : The account you have reported to the three credit bureaus. My basis for this dispute is that I have no knowledge of this account.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: OR
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes

Complaint:
It has been XXXX weeks since Equifax learned of a massive data breach. My data was among that potentially stolen. My state requires expeditious notification in the event of a data breach ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ), yet I have yet to receive any direct communication from Equifax. Further, my only recourse at this point is to freeze my credit file, a service the company CHARGES FOR! Equifax failed in its security obligations, failed in its notification obligations, and now seeks to profit off a disaster of its own creation. 

Please use whatever authority at your disposal to force Equifax to freeze credit for those affected, AT NO CHARGE. I would also encourage you to push for free credit monitoring FOR LIFE. Roughly half the adult population in the US was affected. A year of credit monitoring is an insult. 

Further, please encourage the Congress to look into instituting a National ID with multiple levels of authentication so we can finally move away from using SSNs for everything. 

Lastly, this industry should charge its fees on the inquiry side. Consumers should have year-round access to their credit profiles, and convenient dispute mechanisms. My credit report is full on inquiries from companies seeking to sell me services. They are the ones that should be paying, not me. 

Thank you

Sub-issue: Problem getting your free annual credit report

Complaint:
REQUEST FOR FREE ANNUAL CREDIT REPORT!!! 
I believe that each consumer reporting agency has invalidated the true spirit of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act. The Act first established XX/XX/2003 was intended to establish a plan whereas common American citizens could obtain a copy of their credit reports at least once a year free of charge. Since each credit reporting agency now has marketing divisions such as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX   and XXXX XXXX, the automation system to obtain the free annual reports is looped into an information request to steer citizens into additional product offers that are excessive and unnecessary. Even though I may have received an approval of an updated credit report from either XXXX, XXXX XXXX or Equifax respectively, it is unfair that I need to do a mail request since I can submit my personal information through the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) portal. I believe that since the CFPB is the sole responsible oversight party of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, its imperative that any additional solicitation of information from the credit bureaus should be blocked permanently. I along with any other citizen should receive a free credit report upon request. The credit reporting agencies are an important aspect of the national banking system to properly function, but the current aggressive marketing campaign soliciting citizens for an arbitrary FICO score has gone too far, including but not limited to XXXX   XXXX. We must return to a common ground that is fair for all consumers in the United States, and we must be able to request additional marketing on our own terms. Accordingly, I am making a request for a free credit report with confirmation number to my attached email address. Thank you.

This account is involved in litigation for fraudulent practices according to my FCRA rights. I have not supplied proof under the doctrine of estoppel by silence, Engelhardt v.
