Complaint:
This complaint is regarding an account on my credit report from XXXX XXXX XXXX of {$10000.00}. 
Under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of FCRA any account and all information pertaining to it should be promptly deleted if it can not be verified. 
I have sent 4 letters to Equifax starting XXXX of XXXX asking to see verifiable proof ( hard evidence going all the way back to the original creditor, not verification from third-party database ) regarding this account. ( my first letter was on XX/XX/XXXX ) Under the FCRA, unverified accounts must be removed if Equifax is unable to provide a copy of verifiable proof. Their response was that the account is mine, without any hard evidence going all the way back to the ORIGINAL creditor and without verifiable proof. 
On XX/XX/XXXX I sent my second written request to them asking for a description of the procedures used to determine the accuracy of this account. But they did not provide me with any hard copy documentation showing that they properly verified this account and although under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) ( i ) of the FCRA they are required to " promptly delete all information which can not be verified '', they did not delete the account and I receive the same response- verified- without any documentation as asked. 
On XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX I sent my third written request to Equifax, asking them again to delete this account because they did not provide copy of any documentation ( hard evidence that goes all the way back to the original creditor, not verification from a third-party database ). Also, they did not provide the method of verification as required under section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ).

Again section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA states that any information which can not be verified with proper documentation to be promptly deleted. 
On XX/XX/XXXX I sent my 4th written letter to Equifax because the account is still on my credit report unverified. Again i did not receive copy of any original documentation for this account and no method of verification was provided. 
The account is still on my credit report. 
All my letters have been sent certified mail with return receipt and signature on them. Also all letters were signed by a notary agent before sending them.

Complaint:
The creditor, XXXX XXXX  XXXX, took possession of my vehicle in early XX/XX/XXXX, despite me being ahead of my payment schedule. When I called the company, they stated an error had been made, and returned the vehicle to my possession. Shortly after the company towed my car without cause, the transmission failed, due to the tow operators treatment of the vehicle. In early XX/XX/XXXX, I called the company, requesting them to take the vehicle back. At the time, they informed me the repossession would appear on my credit, which I understood. At the time I returned the car, my payments were up to date. 

Starting in XXXX of XXXX, the creditor started reporting a delinquent balance of {$5700.00} and have continued reporting that outstanding balance each month. The information on my XXXX Report has been updated correctly, however, both XXXX and Experian continue to reflect the account in 90+ days overdue status every month. Since the day I called the creditor to take back the car, I have not had any communications regarding the balance owed on the vehicle, any value the company was able to recover, or any deficiency balance owed to the creditor by mail or by phone.
