Company: National Credit Systems,Inc.
State: TN
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Rental debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was paid

Complaint:
I received approval for Arkansas rental assistance on this full balance of {$2800.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. This check was mailed directly to a landlord ( XXXX ) who quit shortly after/left this company on bad terms!! 

On XX/XX/XXXX The next landlord accused me of stealing an oven ( which was a false accusation ) and then magically my rental account all of a sudden ended up in collections THE SAME MONTH after arguing with the second property XXXX about property she falsely accused me of stealing! 

WHY did XXXX  months pass before I was sent to collections?? IF this was a proper collection-the landland originally handling my eviction process would have turned me in. 

This is company retaliation and illegal to open a collection account against me when I have confirmation that this company did in fact receive a check for the full amount owed! I have attached PROOF with my relief confirmation letter! 

I also attached the proof of this landlord falsely accusing me of theft of property via email and threatening to have me arrested!! She obviously opened a collection account the same month as our negative email exchange!

Complaint:
A dispute letter was sent to Transunion on XX/XX/XXXX provided as exhibit A, asking that they do a investigation in accordance with 15 USC 1681i and any incorrect information be deleted. I received a response from Transunion stating that the XXXX  XXXX account has been verified which is provided as exhibit B. Also exhibit B shows that Transunion is reporting the XXXX  XXXX last date of payment as XX/XX/XXXX. Exhibit C is a statement from XXXX XXXX stating that the last date of payment is XX/XX/XXXX. If Transunion did an investigation in accordance with 15 USC 1681i how can they verify it but reporting inaccurate. Now that i have made you aware of this inaccurate reporting, updating it will be an admission of guilt and i direct violation of my right to a fair investigation. I demand that this account be deleted immediately and or i will have no choice but to seek legal counsel due to the federal violations of the FCRA transunion is currently committing. Please forward me a copy of the updated credit report with the deletions.

Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
I am XXXX XXXX XXXX and I am a natural living person. I am writing to dispute certain information present on my credit report, which I believe is inaccurate. This dispute is based on the provisions outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act, including 15 U.S. Code 1681a, 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, and 15 USC 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ).

According to 15 U.S. Code 1681a, the definition of a consumer report excludes reports containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the reporting entity. It is evident that the information in dispute falls under this exclusion.

Furthermore, 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 emphasizes the responsibility of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies. The law stipulates that furnishers must provide accurate information and prohibits reporting with actual knowledge of errors.

In addition, 15 USC 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ) supports my claim by specifying exclusions from the definition of a consumer report, highlighting the relevance of the disputed information to this exclusion. 

Based on the provisions mentioned above, I kindly request an investigation into these discrepancies and urge prompt action to rectify the inaccuracies. As per my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I also request that you provide me with a written explanation of the results of your investigation. 

Enclosed are copies of documents supporting my claim for your review. 

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and request that the inaccurate information be corrected or removed from my credit report at the earliest.

Complaint:
Hello- I sent XXXX XXXX XXXX multiple disputes to verify and validated the account on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. Unfortunately, they never sent me proof of any late payments or verification of the account. The only letter that they sent me on XXXX only provided just an open date of XX/XX/XXXX and {$0.00} Balance. This does not meet FCRA 's criteria for account validation or verification. 

Also, I notified them of inaccurate reporting errors on their part ( inaccurate : Open Date and Unverified late ) and requested that they remove the unverified lates. 

I sent disputes to the Transunion and XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. They too have yet to send me any proof or correct the inaccurate data on my reports. 

Please help!

Issue: Trouble using your card
Sub-issue: Credit card company won't increase or decrease your credit limit

Complaint:
I was not receiving statements from Synchrony bank and I confirmed this over a recorded line with a XXXX Store Card customer service representative during a call placed at XXXX XXXX  to XXXX. The gentleman who answered acknowledged my payment was made on XX/XX/2021 but had not processed in Synchrony Bank 's system by XX/XX/2021. He reversed my late fee and referred me to someone to increase my credit line, but they could not help Unfortunately because my account still showed as delinquent due to the slow processing of my payment. I was referred to a portfolio manager XXXX. 

Unfortunately, XXXX stated my credit line was closed due to a lack of mortgage and high balances. This seemed like a coincidence to my delinquency. I made a purchase on a delinquent account credit card that I had not received a statement on. I thought I received promotional financing for a XXXX phone at 0 % interest plus the first three months at XXXX dollars. Since I did not receive a statement I did not know the account was delinquent. Syncrony approved the charge for my new phone however and I have not opted into any such service that would allow them to do so. This is a violation of consumer protections. Further, I lost the XXXX financing promotion as disclosed to me because the account was delinquent.
