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

Complaint:
I have one account with Affirm that had five purchases for XXXX to be paid on different days with Affirm. I was recently unemployed-Laid off from my job, I spoke to a representative at Affirm and advised him that I obtained a job and I was going to pay on the loans when I received my first paycheck on XX/XX/2023 and could not make my payments for XXXX, XXXX and XXXX until then. I eventually paid three of the purchases and brought the account to current on XX/XX/2023 and paid the other two purchases to current on XX/XX/2023. However, Affirm reported to credit reporting bureaus on XX/XX/2023 that I owed on all five of these purchases and listed this as five different loans on my credit and bought my credit score down XXXX points. I received no good credit when I was paying Affirm on time, however, when I got behind 90 days, they reported the account five times as five different negative entries instead of just reporting to my credit for one total accumulative balance of all XXXX purchases. They just destroyed 20 years of building good credit over five small increments of XXXX purchases for one bad account. I can't believe the credit bureaus allowed this and I feel this has violated the fair credit reporting act. And the amounts they reported do not even match what was owed. Three of the purchases was paid before they even reported it five times. If anything, there should only have been one reporting for two loans. The three credit bureaus are a for-profit company and is allowing companies like Affirm to destroy people lives and credit score by allowing them to list one Affirm account five times. This has to be illegal, and I will be seeking legal action because I believe Affirm violated my fair credit rights. I want these entries removed off my credit and my score back to current status. This one company took my credit down from good to poor after 15 years of building when they know how difficult it is for XXXX Americans to gain a good credit score with all the systematic laws against us to keep our credit poor to pay high interest rates. This would not have happened to someone else of another race. This was done intentionally to destroy my credit worthiness at such an financially hardship point in my life. The account wasn't even past due 120 days which is the time listed that they will report to credit bureaus through a third part collection agency. Affirm violated FCRA and I seeking resolution asap.

Complaint:
I am disputing the accuracy of this charged off account ( XXXX  # XXXX ) reporting inaccurately multiple months after an account was closed. Re-aging a charged off account is an illegal act due to FCRA Section 623 ( 5 ) ( A ). This law states : In general. A person who furnishes information to a consumer reporting agency regarding a delinquent account being placed for collection, charged to profit or loss, or subjected to any similar action shall, not later than 90 days after furnishing the information, notify the agency of the date of delinquency on the account, which shall be the month and year of the commencement of the delinquency on the account that immediately preceded the action.

According to the FCDA section 623, This is illegal. Once an account is closed the clause states that it can only reflect charged off or late UP TO the date that the account was closed. Therefore you are reporting Inaccurate information. Not only are you reporting unlawfully and illegally, you are also tarnishing my report that I will be seeking damages for if this problem isnt fixed. The Bureau needs to provide me with copies of all documentation associated with these public record accounts bearing either a court order to place this information on my report or my authorization of release bearing my signature.

By the provisions of the fair credit reporting act, I demand that this item be investigated and REMOVED from my credit report. 
It is to my understanding that you will recheck these items with the creditor who posted these items. Please send me a copy of my credit report XXXX  # XXXX

My admitted inaccurate data from XXXX keeps changing due to Metro 2 data entries which removed the remark Account closed at consumers request. The attached Equifax data pulled XX/XX/2023 at XXXX states : Account Information Changed. Remark code removed from XXXX account. Between XX/XX/2023 and XX/XX/2023, the following remark was removed from this account : Account closed at consumers request. Accounts changed from closed to open constitutes a prohibited example of lack of internal CRA and Furnisher controls to prevent Facially False Dara from being reported as clearly written recently by CFPB Director XXXX XXXX. As Senator XXXX XXXX would say : Are you kidding!!! My Account must be permanently reported as both Closed at consumers request AND Disputed. Permanently DELETE my account from every CRA as incompetence in entering Metro 2 will never be assured to be accurate and in compliance with the FCRA and Metro 2 requirement standards.
