It has been almost 1 year and I have been stone walled by all the representative and they have passed me off to coworkers saying the are supervisors while they are not.

I have noticed several unauthorized accounts on my credit report.

Where there is no fair valuable consideration given, the contract or agreement is void. The debt is non-transferable. If it is a contract for credit or goes to the character of the parties, it can not be transferred or assigned. No state can make a law impairing contracts, Under OHIO LAW U.C.C XXXX Taking assignment of debts ( 3 ) The assignment was manifested by a written agreement separate from and in addition to any document intended for the purpose of listing the account, bill, or other evidence of indebtedness with the collection agency.

Complaint sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

LexisNexis responded to my complaint on XX/XX/2022, and they stated that they sell public records in bulk to a variety of customers, including consumer reporting agencies, such as XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. LexisNexis said that these bulk records are not consumer reports as defined under the FCRA, so I asked LexisNexis to show me where they read in the FCRA that these bulk records are not considered consumer reports, and till this very day, LexisNexis has failed to show me this information. 
I called LexisNexis on the phone asking them to show or tell me where I can see for myself in the FCRA where it states that the bulk records they sell to these consumer reporting agencies are not consumer reports, and they had me on the phone for almost an hour, and I had to tell them to just call me back when they figure it out, and they never where able to show or prove to me where they read that false statement they made. 
I informed LexisNexis that when they removed the bankruptcy from my LexisNexis report after my dispute, that they were admitting to the violation of the 15 U.S. code 1681b Permissible Purpose of Consumer Report. This law clearly states that the Consumer shall have consented orally in writing, or electronically to the procurement of the report by that person, in which I did not consent to. Under the FCRA remedy law, its states that for every violation, its {$100.00} to {$1000.00} and I am demanding the max for damages and the stress that LexisNexis has caused and continue to cause! 
This is my last time trying to work with LexisNexis outside of Court, if LexisNexis dont comply this time, I will be forced to file a Lawsuit with my Attorney, once again LexisNexis I have attached XXXX invoices for a XXXX dollars, XXXX for the violation when you sold my consumer report to XXXX and XXXX for when you sold my consumer report to XXXX XXXX if you dont comply I will start a lawsuit and it will be for more than what I am demanding for right now.
