Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I submitted XXXX accounts ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX ) in charge off for investigation as there were errors in the accounts and they came back as updated rather than deleted like I requested as they had XXXX years to report correct information and now that its modified it further dilutes my credit report making it hard to find the factual information from the modified. And upon them conducting their investigation there is no way the investigation was done properly because 15 U.S. Code 1681 ( e ) The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. How could they have done a proper investigation. Also they violated my right to privacy. Not only that but once an account has been charged off the payment history can not continue to report charged off. 
On XX/XX/XXXX a collection showed up on my credit report with no way of validating the debt. Its been disputed but XXXX had no authority to sell my information to a third party ( XXXX XXXX ) and my right to privacy has been violated
