How could they verify my account XXXX ID : XXXX VERIFY my security freeze for XX/XX/XXXX XXXX DID NOT verify a thing. They are continuing to send me letter back stating verified. XXXX are putting inaccurate information on my credit report. There are accounts that states paid and clearing on XX/XX/XXXX. If I paid this account off do you think I would file the account in bankruptcy. Another example : XXXX : Account sold to XXXX, then they have Bankruptcy Chapter XXXX, but the account is Purchased by another Lender ( How can I do both ).
