Complaint:
On XXXX XXXX, 2020, MIDLAND CREDIT MANAG ( Original Creditor Name XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) add a derogatory mark on my credit reports. Upon further research, this account was transferred /sold and I am no longer responsible for it. Debtor*s creditors did not verify this collection. Also there was no written form of communication, contract or signature for this account debt at all. A bill without signature does not validate the debt and anybody can send a bill and say it is mine. According to the FCRA MIDLAND CREDIT MANAG has violated my rights as a consumer and I requesting legal action to remove this account immediately.

Complaint:
XXXX ; XXXX  and Transunion should not be reporting each inquiry listed as a separate line item on my credit report for XXXX and XXXX, 2020. These multiple inquiries in are well within the 45 plus day shopping window that is typically allowed to check different lenders and find the best loans. Each of these inquiries are of like kind. They are not separate, individual entities. These inquiries should not have negatively impacted my credit score. Please remove these inquiries from my report. ( Please see page attached from my credit report. ) This false reporting of multiple inquiries is seriously harming my credit score. It is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act to not report accurate information on my credit report. I have contacted the bureaus to fix this however, I have not been successful.

Complaint:
AMEX SERVE National Bank on XX/XX/21 at XXXX, Monies were fraudulently taken from my account at an ATM Location in XXXX. a total which was in excess of {$700.00}. The alert was sent out to the app. Immediately I notified AMEX FRAUD Division. All submitted documents will explain the timeline. on the first application, I had included all the fees charged. The first time I was denied, I was told to not include service fees for they were already returned to me. To resubmit the application minus their fees which I did. the second application resulted in denial again and to send a letter to their fraud department in Georgia. Which was on the third last attempt due to COVID. I am a XXXX  in the frontline I was distracted. but contacted Serve fraud and they asked that I resubmit ... which with understandably so with delay was submitted. I never got a formal answer from the fraud department which was necessary for me to include the local law enforcement at the XXXX XXXX  in this recovery. Whether it's unwilling or duplicity on their part. That is the question. submitted are the necessary documents that were requested. The last delay was due to COVID Thank you for a hopefully positive resolution

Complaint:
Inaccurate and defamatory information is being reported on my credit report. I have made several attempts to contact this company regarding the derogatory information being reported to my credit bureaus. My first Debt Validation letter was signed and received by them on XX/XX/2020. I received no response. I later sent a Non Response letter advising them to delete this negative information from my credit reports as they have not provided any validity that this debt belongs to me nor exists. This is a clear character violation and lack of validation. I have given 30 days to respond regarding my dispute with no proof in sight. How is it possible for them to continue reporting clearly Unverified, Invalidated, and Inaccurate information to my credit report? I am requesting this company to immediately remove this erroneous invalidated information from the three major credit bureaus : XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. I am also requesting a physical deletion letter be mailed to me directly

Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX began servicing my mortgage as of XX/XX/2019. Per XXXX, 2 payments were misapplied in XXXX and/or XX/XX/2019. My bill pay history shows that my account has always been paid in full by the XXXX of the month, which is the final date payment is due before any late fees can be applied. I was made aware of the misapplied payment in XXXX and have been working with XXXX, primarily via phone, ever since in an attempt to get the payments reapplied correctly. 

In XXXX, I was instructed by XXXX to submit a written dispute via e-mail. I submitted that dispute on XX/XX/XXXX and received a letter from XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX confirming receipt of that letter. XXXX has failed to respond to me within the federally regulated time frame. Now they are reporting late payments to the credit bureaus and hurting my score because of their error. 

I have attached both my letter to XXXX, my payment history from bank account, and my response from XXXX. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.
