State: MI
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Credit monitoring or identity theft protection services
Sub-issue: Problem with product or service terms changing

Complaint:
My earliest e-mail regarding this problem is dated XX/XX/2019 and the same problem has persisted until the present, unresolved. At that time I was being blocked out of XXXX service for an incorrect password, even though I had not changed my password ( seriously I did not change it, I stored it in a password manager and used it repeatedly before this date ). 
The same instructions were given to me on two separate weekends. They were modified to correct the login URL on the third weekend ( changed from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). Regardless of the login URL, I was to use the password reset link after pressing the " forgot password '' button. I received these instructions via phone ( after HUGE holds ) or e-mail. The instructions were of to no avail because the password reset email was always sent to me AFTER the 15 minute deadline. Attempts to use it to log in to XXXX would result in a message about a URL token being invalid. I tried this yesterday ( XX/XX/2019 )  twice and received the password e-mail late, TWICE. 

I can not log in to XXXX and Experian will not help.

Company: PORTFOLIO RECOVERY ASSOCIATES INC
State: MO
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
Upon review of my credit reports with XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, I noticed an account that did not belong to me. I immediately disputed this account via USPS certified mail ( dated XX/XX/XXXX ) with the three credit bureaus. XXXX  deleted said account. XXXX  and XXXX  responded that the account was verified, but did not provide proof of how it was verified, or what was provided to them to verify the account. 

Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC then contacted me via mail, claiming that they had completed their investigation and determined the debt to be valid, attaching only a letter written by the company they purchased the debt from ( XXXX XXXX  ), stating that they sold the referenced account to Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC on XX/XX/XXXX. 

I responded to Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC by USPS certified mail on XX/XX/XXXX, asking them to validate this debt with evidence bearing my signature, and they failed to do so. Their subsequent responses have only included the same letter referenced earlier. 

It seems that Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC is attempting to commit fraud, because the date they purchased the debt is the same as the date opened listed on my credit report, which doesnt make any logical sense. 

It also seems they are trying to take advantage of consumers XXXX  of the law and their rights, by reporting debts to credit bureaus that they have no legal right to collect, let alone report. 

I have contacted my attorney, who has advised me to move forward with a lawsuit. This is my final attempt to resolve this matter with Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC. If they do not request deletion of this account from my credit reports, and if they continue to pursue collection activity, we will have no other choice than to move forward with litigation.

Sub-issue: Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone

Complaint:
After notifying each credit bureau regarding the closed status of my XXXX XXXX XXXX account and request by that department to remove an account of balance is obviously XXXX stated by XXXX XXXX them selves. Both Equifax and XXXX along with XXXX XXXX continued to display incorrect credit information on a closed account which I am the custodial parent and the difference in the reporting by Equifax and XXXX XXXX clearly shows the discrepancy itself. The credit bureaus simply wont take the time To verify it for themselves and only rely on a third-party service that does the reporting.

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

Complaint:
I'm embarrassed I have to file a complaint I thought exercising my right as a consumer was protected and that laws had to be followed. I have been disputing these inaccurate and unverifiable accounts for months now with no response or mail in response to my request as a consumer. On XX/XX/2022, I sent disputes concerning accounts that are illegally reporting on my credit in violation. In accordance with 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 7 ) I, the consumer has the right to know the description of the method used to verify the information furnished on my consumer report. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), the contractor is required by federal law to verify - through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract for any and all accounts you post on a credit report. 
USC 1681a ( e ) makes it clear that if a consumer reporting agency investigates something then it is known as an " Investigative Consumer Report '' but i do know for you to investigate things you need to conduct interviews with the following : - Interviews with neighbors - Friends - Associates of the consumer - or anyone who might have knowledge concerning such items of information I have yet to receive any proof from the person that is reporting on my consumer report. I was not sent any information, I've been getting papers from Transunion saying I'm working with a credit repair which is clearly not. They even refused to process my disputes as a consumer isn't that illegal? The cause of this has been stressful and impacting my financial life to purchase anything. On XX/XX/2022 I sent another letter to comply with my request which might get ignored like all the rest which is why I'm making this complaint now.
