Company: Accelerated Financial Solutions, LLC
State: ME
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was result of identity theft

Complaint:
Hi, My name is XXXX i was contacted by a company called Accelerated Financial Solutions on XX/XX/XXXX. Please see link to their website http : //www.acceleratedfinancial.net/ They called me from phone number XXXX XXXX XXXX.
They claimed that i had an outstanding debt to XXXX  for {$260.00}. They claimed i opened the account in XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXXi was XXXX. I asked for info regarding the alleged debt such as the account number, where the account was opened. They were not able to provide me with any info other than i owed them money. I have never had an account with XXXX. I reached out to XXXX to see if there was ever an account opened with my social and XXXX fraud department told me they have no account in their system with my social. I feel like Accelerated Financial Solutions was trying to scam me. After speaking with the XXXX fraud department I called AFS back and advised what XXXX had told me. The woman is spoke with was rather hostile as i asked for me info on this matter. The woman at AFS claimed that XXXX does n't keep their customer account data forever and that is why XXXX had no record of the alleged debt/account. I told them i felt like was being scammed and I do admit i was not very nice and used some not very nice words. I asked for them to mail me all the possible info on this alleged debt. They claimed they would only send me a one page document with a letterhead claimed the account would be closed.. At the end of the call the woman i spoke with claimed that it was identity theft and due to the account being opened in XX/XX/XXXX( when i was XXXX ) that the matter was closed and that i did n't owe them any money. I am not sure if you all are the right people to reach out to regarding this matter but i truly feel as these people were trying to scam me.

Complaint:
I've been using XXXX  for a few months now ( Since XX/XX/2019 ). I use the feature called " round-ups '' that takes the remaining amount per dollar and puts it in a savings account. I was notified that my card was no longer linked so I went online to update my info ( I assumed it was because I had gotten a new ATM card ). Although when I tried to update my information i was notified that PNC was the reason it was not working as they have " taken away '' permissions from the XXXX platform. I was then directed here to file a complaint. I am curious to know when this was stopped, and also why? 


Thank You!

Complaint:
I have not received a response from the credit bureaus despite several letters, nor have I noticed any modifications to my report. The bad items I've been contesting remain on my credit record. This is obviously a violation of federal law. Credit reporting agencies are required by FCRA 605b to remove/block any accounts included on an identity theft report. I've attached some documents to help with the blocking of the incorrect information on my report.

Complaint:
Where do I begin. The credit bureaus service no purpose. They are created to destroy peoples lives and there is nothing we can do about it unless someone in power takes a stand an abolish all three of the companies. Since the pandemic, my XXXX XXXX and personal life has been affected due to the Covid-19 and the credit bureaus are making the matter worse. I reported with all my credits my financial situation and how my XXXX XXXX has shutdown due to this crisis. The government has instructed the credit bureaus to not report consumers late on their credit report and they have disregard that request and my credit has dropped 250 points. I now have poor credit and I can't do anything to reverse this. I've made numerous disputes and the credit agencies keep saying it's under reinvestigation. Please hear me scream at the top of my lungs. How can these worthless folks still have jobs and they have ruined the lives of millions of people. I know I'm not the only one affected by this inhumane behavior. 

Due to the agencies reporting my creditors as late, many of my accounts were closed, the credit limit was reduced and my credit is messed up. Due to the incorrect reporting on my SSN, I was denied for both the PPP and EIDL government loan for my XXXX XXXX. The lender refuses to reconsider due to my poor credit. This undue hardship to my life is devastating. My XXXX XXXX is in limbo and my personal life is no more. I need someone to take this complaint serious and help me. I don't know what else to do. These agencies need to be held accountable for their bad practices.

Hi, my name is XXXX XXXX. I have been sending you guys letters about some inaccurate information on my credit report but I don't believe you did the job properly.

I'll be waiting for 15 days from now to see if there will be any changes and will take my next step after that. Thank you!

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
In XXXX 2017 I contacted XXXX XXXX about their reporting on an auto loan that was included in my bankruptcy. They told me that they had reported it to Experian and XXXX as Chapter XXXX  bankruptcy. Experian 's response to the creditor was because of a lawsuit that the discharge paper work that was sent to them ( creditor ) from the court was not sufficient enough and that I would have to personally provide them with the the schedule of the items I included in the bankruptcy to them ( Experian ). When did this new practice come into play that the discharge paperwork that was sent to to creditor from the courts was n't sufficient enough? When did the policy change when a credit submits information to the bureaus to update account information they choose not to? I have contacted Experian personally and they told me I would have to either provide a copy of all my paperwork I filed to the courts almost 3 years ago for their review. I ', m not going to submit my personal information to them especially with the situation that just happend at Equifax. XXXX has reponded that the creditor has verified they are reporting correctly which is untrue. Experian and XXXX are giving me a hard time as well as the creditor. I stated to both bureaus if they are not able to report correctly they need to remove from my report which they have not done. They are in violation of my consumer right and I need the CFPB to step in and help.

Complaint:
Make a purchase of XXXX a little bit over 2 years ago. Back in XXXX or XXXX of XXXX. Was inform by the seller that we can finance and if we can not paid it off in too years there's going to be charge interest fee. I look at the bill and realized that in XXXX or possibly XXXX of XXXX i 2as hit with XXXX in interest. We did make payment and was making payment through the pandemic. I did not know they were going to charge interest on the 2 years all at once if we can not paid off after 2 years and at such high interest rate. The company refuse to lower the rate or provide any extension to pay the balance even with the hardship due to the pandemic. If I know I was going to be charge that way I would have never go for that option because regardless of the time I would think of worse case scenario like what if I can not make the payment.

Complaint:
Equifax was hacked and I just learned of the potential impact to my credit. I have worked very hard to build out my life and current situation to be where it is. They are only offering free enrollment for their monitoring program but I find their delay in delivering information unacceptable and also the way in which someone could have a field day being me. The potential impact is my detailed information which is enough for some hacker to steal my identity with my birthdate, ss number, drivers license number and then some. This is completely unacceptable. I want them to be formally investigated for failure to secure personal data. I work for a bank where we would be fined and written up for such an incident. I hope that your team does what it was designed to do and goes after this. UNACCEPTABLE breach and honestly if I am a victim I will sue them to no end. It is their job to secure and protect themselves from this type of incident. 143 million people may be a victim. I am a hardworking American and I would sincerely expect you do to something on this.

Issue: Confusing or misleading advertising or marketing

Complaint:
Equifax reported that the personal information of over 100 million consumers was compromised in XX/XX/XXXX and was not discovered untilXX/XX/XXXX. They did not release this information until XX/XX/XXXX - more than 6 weeks after the incident was discovered. This left millions of consumers unaware that their sensitive information was compromised by hostile parties. Equifax is offering one year of free credit monitoring and repair service through XXXX, but with one serious and abhorrent exception. After going to Equifax to enroll in XXXX, consumers must wait until XX/XX/XXXX before returning to the website and continuing their enrollment. In addition, Equifax will not send any notification when this is available. Instead the responsibility is shifted to the consumer. I hope this is n't a strategic decision by Equifax in hopes that they can protect their bottom line by betting on consumers not returning on their enrollment date. That would be borderline predatory. If Equifax had 6 weeks to prepare a response, why has n't this free service been worked out? In the words of CEO XXXX XXXX, " Equifax will not be defined by this incident ... but rather how we respond. ''

Complaint:
I have disputed the referenced accounts to the 3 main credit bureaus and do not owe your company anything. I dont know this company and I do not recall ever having this debt and appears to be fraud, see attached FTC Report. Moreover, no adequate information has been given and noticed these accounts appear to violate my rights as well, per 15 USC 1692 ( e ) ( f ) ( g ). Moreover, you stated the account was verified as accurate by law 15 USC 1681 ( e ). Per 15 USC 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. Investigations weren't completed as described by law and no factual information should be on credit reports. Im requesting the removal of accounts and/or monetary compensation due to violations of my rights. Im currently seeking litigation regarding consistent harassment, unfair debt practices, adding without my permission/authorization within 5 days, and more. As the original creditor, only I can validate the debt therefore Im requesting removal and this account violates my consumer rights in several ways. Please remove and provide some updates within 4 days of receipt, as this has been ongoing for over 3-4 months.
