I never received any written communication regarding this debt. XXXX XXXX called me on Friday, XX/XX/2016 and left me a voicemail on my cell phone stating he was a private investigator and threatened to pursue legal action without even speaking to me to let me know what it was in regards to. Left the same message at my parents home, my grandmother, and my boyfriends home. I called them back immediately and XXXX XXXX told me if I did n't take care of the debt by the XXXX of XXXX which was two days away that he would be at my home between XXXX and XXXX and were going to serve me with documents and take me to court. I advised him that I wanted to settle the debt and that I was unaware that I owed anything as the last payment should have come out of my checking account which was closed at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX when I got divorced. I tried to call back later that day to get a settlement offer and pay the debt, however they we 're closed. I received a phone call on Monday XXXX XXXX, 2016 and this time he did not leave a message. When I called back immediately, I pressed XXXX per the automated system and spoke with a Rep. Named XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX advised me that XXXX XXXX was handling my case but had left the office for the day for a meeting. I advised XXXX that I am unemployed at this time, but I had {$300.00} and that I was willing to pay {$300.00} today to pay the debt in full. He placed me on hold to obtain authorization for the settlement and came back on the line and told me it was approved and we proceeded to make the payment. He advised me that a receipt would be mailed showing Paid in full. At XXXX, I received a call from the debt collector and XXXX XXXX XXXX called to advise me that I did not speak to him when I called and that the offer that I received was invalid and that he would be refunding me my money and pursuing legal action. That XXXX, who works for the same collection agency and received approval for the settlement amount did n't have his permission to handle my account and that I needed to pay an additional {$260.00} to pay the account off. He said that I went behind his back and made an arrangement without his permission and continued to get very ugly with me and threaten me with legal action after the agreement was already in place and the money had already been drafted from my account. So basically because he wanted more money, he is trying to tell me that my payment will be returned and that the verbal agreement I made with XXXX XXXX who drafted the money from my account and told me it was paid in full after receiving authorization from his superior is invalid.
I filed a dispute with XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX, not one of the companies I filed a dispute with responded with validation within the 30 day time frame. Instead they respondent with an acknowledgement that the received the dispute. When i contacted XXXX I was told that the companies just have to acknowledge your dispute and in-which is all they needed to do in order to keep the debt on my credit. That is not an investigation. Validation with an address and social security number can be obtained by anyone that can request your credit report. Copies of copies are not a form of Validation, and by Law are not considered proof. I was later ( after 30 days ) presented with unsigned contract and an itemized statement as of evidence of validation from XXXX XXXX, and I received only an acknowledge of correspondence of my dispute from XXXX XXXX. I later received a copy of a copied contract from XXXX XXXX that nowhere indicated I had a contract with XXXX XXXX but another company and with an unidentified signature of another person. The process from these companies that are able to keep non- validated information on your account is breaking the law, and the credit bureaus are not investigating anything and are ignoring my request for the information that was provided from the reporting agencies to be provided to me. By law I can request the information from the credit bureaus to see what is provided to them from these companies to keep this debt on my credit, and I did this with an affidavit, that must be honored by law. Again, if you are going to keep items on my credit that has damaged my life and continue to damage my life, I need to see the proof of this debt because these reporting agencies are not providing validating information and some NEVER even responded at all to me ( the consumer ). I sent the proof of me sending affidavits to every company on my credit report and I also sent XXXX XXXX an affidavit as well, and still no response from my affidavit request. 
Summary : These companies/reporting agencies failed to provide me with a copy of any original documentation for example, a consumer contract with my wet-ink signature on as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 
Pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, I request verification/validation of the debt including the following : Original Copies of all information regarding the above-referenced debt, including statements, reports, ledgers, correspondence, notes, origination documents ( including any and all application and usage/activity signatures ) and documents relating to any assignment of such account to and/or from any third parties. 
Copies of copies are not a form of Validation, and by Law are not considered proof. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, unverified, invalid accounts must be removed. If you are unable to provide me with a copy of the verifiable/validated proof that you have on file, within 30 calendar days from receipt of this notice, by law you have to immediately remove the aforementioned item in dispute from my credit report.

I am a XXXX returning to college. I am waiting to see what my federal loans will be for this semester. My family and I have been harrassed with insessant phone calls by Sallie Mae to begin making monthly payments, starting at {$420.00}. I am employed part-time and can not afford this. When I expressed that I could n't afford monthly payments, they offered defferement for {$100.00}. When the agreed date for the payment passed, they claimed they did not recieve the payment. I now owe {$100.00} plus the $ XXXX monthly payment to be allowed defferment again. I can not afford to pay this. Speaking on the phone again, they threatened to take the loan to their collections agency. They resorted to using scare tactics in telling me they dont know how I 'll get more loans for school once they report me. They expressed they did not care if it threatened my future academic career. They are unwilling to work with me so I can continue my education. The original loan amount from Sallie Mae was XXXX. With interest, it is exceeding XXXX. I need help addressing this debt and with negotiating fair and just payment options with this loan while I have extremely low income.

Threatening to report to credit agency amount in dispute. I have asked the the debt collection agency what the amount due is for and they tell me to call the hospital. Since they have no billing info there is nothing I can call the hospital about. Spoke to Supervisor XXXX XXXX, on XXXX/XXXX/15 who said he would contact hospital and find out what the amount his office is billing is for and call me back on Monday XXXX/XXXX/2015. A week later and he still has not called. I tried to call him today and was unsuccessful in getting him to the phone.
I have several hard inquiries on my credit report that do not belong to me. I have tried to contact Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX about this matter, but the customer service representitives were not interested in helping me. These hard inquires are making it impossible for me to get new lines of credit.

I also have some inaccuries on my report as well, my current address XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is not reporting on any of my credit reports.

And my credit card is reporting as only 3 years when the account is 10 years 8 months old. This is causing my XXXX  score to report drastically lower than what it should be.
Complaint/Consumer Information XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX XXXX Business Information LendingClub Corporation XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX Complaint Summary Complaint Type : Consumer to Business Complaint Nature of complaint : Advertising Issues Problem description : In XX/XX/XXXX of this year Lending Club sent me a letter which contained fake checks for {$5000.00}, {$10000.00} and {$20000.00} in my name. The letter told me that I was Pre-Approved for any of those amounts. I ignored them. Then in XX/XX/XXXX my air conditioner failed and was quoted a new one for {$9600.00}. I called Lending Club about their offer and asked them if it was still valid. They said it was then I asked for a loan of {$10000.00}. I was told that I really only qualified for {$2000.00} at an interest rate of about 26 %. They told me that Pre-Approved does not mean Pre-Approved. What it really means is that I can apply for a loan to see how much I actually qualify for.
I HAVE BEEN A VICTIM OF IDENTIFY FRAUD. ACCOUNTS HAVE BEEN OPENED IN MY NAME. XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX. I HAVE A POLICE REPORT.
My lender, Citizens One Mortgage falsely reported to the credit bureaus that I was late on my mortgage payment. I learned of this error when I tried to refinance my home. I was denied because of this error. I contacted my mortgage company and told them I required a letter stating that I was not late that month. They told me it would take 30 days to research. 30 days passed and I received no resolution, then I received a letter saying it would take 45 days because it required more research. After 45 days, then I received a letter that acknowledged the error on their part, but would not state that I was n't late which is what I told them I needed in order to move forward with my refinance. When calling customer service they urged me to speak with their refinance department which made me suspicious that they were holding up my document to force me to stay with their company. Multiple emails and phone calls and still no resolution. After fighting this issue now for two months I have received a letter stating that the error will be updated in ninety days, so an error that was not my fault is taking six months to resolve which is costing me money I desperately need and my mortgage company refuses to provide the very simple request of a piece of paper that states I was not late on the month in question. They will and have provided letters admitting they made an error, but they refuse to provide what I need to refinance my loan. How can a mortgage company be permitted to make errors and then abuse their victims with no repercussion?
Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC is reluctant in providing me the following information as requested under the FCRA and FDCPA.

I request under the FCRA & FDCPA ( thru this CFPB Portal ONLY ) that this company and affiliates furnish me the following : 1. Proof that they own the debt and verification that I owe the debt.

2. Proof and details outlining the North Carolina Statue of Limitations on expired debt.

3. Documentation of the agreement between the original creditor and current owner authorizing for such a collection on the assumed debt, including documentation of the fees and cost.
I have sent Portfolio Recovery 11 validation of debt letters, dated XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX.  Portfolio Recovery refuses to comply with my validation of debt requests. Instead of complying with my validation of debt requests and sending the documents that I have requested in my validation of debt letters, Portfolio Recovery sends the same computerized letters to me in the mail. Portfolio Recovery is reporting false information to the credit reporting agencies, since they refuse to send the documents that I have requested in my validation of debt letters to validate the debt claimed owed. I sent a cease of communication letter to Portfolio Recovery on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. Portfolio Recovery continues to send letters to me everyday, after I have asked 11 times for them to stop contacting me by mail. I have received 4-5 letters from Portfolio Recovery every day, since I sent my first cease of communication letter to Portfolio Recovery on XX/XX/XXXX. I have copies of all validation of debt letters, email and written correspondences and cease of correspondence letters sent to Portfolio Recovery, as evidence. All evidence will be sent in the mail to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. The continuous harassment by Portfolio Recovery has caused me emotional distress.
PLAZA SERVICES # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX , GA XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX Placed for collection : XX/XX/2017 Responsibility : Individual Account Account Type : Open Account Loan Type : DEBT BUYER Balance : {$700.00} Date Updated : XX/XX/2017 Original Amount : {$700.00} Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Financial ) Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau : I am disputing the collection account noted above. I have never received any communication from this company. I have reached out to the original creditor, XXXX XXXX XXXX asking them to provide documentation of this debt and have not even received a return phone call. 

Under the Fair Debt Collections Act, I should have been given an opportunity to reach out to the collection agency and dispute this debt before it was entered on my credit report. Since Plaza Services, nor XXXX XXXX XXXX, contacted me I did not have an opportunity to validate and dispute this debt. 

Please have this item deleted from my credit report. Once I was made aware of this entry on my credit report, I contacted the collection agency, Plaza Services, and they could not provide me any information over the phone. I asked the representative to send me documentation showing they are authorized to collect and to verify how I owe this debt and they refused. I am seeking your assistance to please verify the existence of this debt and any correspondence this company provided prior to this entry being entered on my credit report. 

It was recommended by the Indiana Secretary of State 's Office to reach out to you for help with this matter as it potentially violates my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). 

Regards, XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX
Received a credit report from Experian showing " XXXX SERIOUS DELINQUENCY '' & " XXXX LEVEL OF DELINQUENCY ON ACCOUNTS '' which was triggered by an incorrect report by XXXX that the account had not been paid and went to collections. 
This information is not true. I contacted XXXX and they had no record of the account going into collections or being past due. It was paid in full and closed. 
The Experian credit report is showing a lower FICO score than it should, despite the dispute, which is causing me real harm. I am applying for a loan which is going to cost an extra {$60000.00} over the loan term.
I applied and was approved for the KeyBank Latitude credit card with a promotional interest rate of 0 % APR for 15 billing cycles. Additionally, the offer included a 0 % introductory convenience check fee and/or balance transfer fee. Checks were provided in a separate mailing and indicated that they could be used to make purchase 's, transfer balances, or get cash. I attempted to write a check for {$11000.00} that was returned and I was charged a {$12.00} return fee. My available balance on the card indicated I had {$11000.00}. When I called to resolve this issue I was first told I the check was returned because I didn't have enough credit available. This was clearly false. I was then told that checks have a fee, which may be true for some, but these clearly indicated there would be NO fee. Finally, they came back with the answer that these checks apply to the " cash advance '' limit, which was only between XXXX-XXXX on this account. This was not clearly disclosed ANYWHERE on the checks provided. My " cash advance '' limit is also not clearly established on my online account or any of the disclosures that were provided. This is a clear case of consumer harm that could easily have been avoided. Attached is all the supporting documentation.
I have had my Sears account since XXXX and have gotten my updated cards regularly and do all my payments online and opted out of paper statements years ago. My card expired in XX/XX/XXXX and have never received a new card. When I called they said they were reviewing the account and I should know in about a week. Told me my available balance and said I can shop just have ID and my social security number. However, for about a year or so prior every time I logged on I had to verify the spelling on the card which I never had to do in the past. Also prior to my card inquiry sudden ; y I could no longer log on to make payments or check the activity on this account. It would not take my credentials. Nothing had changed. Called technical and we tried and tried no luck. Wasted an hour. So I had to make the payment over the phone. Every month thereafter same scenario and still no way to get access. Finally last month a representative stated that the reason was that I needed the new card information to create a new logon and that she would send out a new one. I made the payment over the phone that day and she waived the late fee since it was due the day before and I could n't get access. I still did not receive the card and all these months have had no statements or know if the balances were correct and just paying them blindly. This month I contacted them again and spoke to a supervisor and explained the situation and again no help. There is too much fraudulent transactions with these banks and I need to get this resolved ASAP.
Began applying for a small home equity line of credit on XXXX XXXX with Wells Fargo. I was told it would take 30 days. We have provided all documentation within 24 hours of request. It has now been 77 days and my application is still pending. We have several hundred thousands of dollars of paid equity in the mortgage ( not appreciation value ) and excellent credit as well as high verified income.
In XX/XX/XXXX I sent in a dispute over a public inquery that was removed years ago. All other agencies immediately corrected the issue but Equifax has ignored every single attempt to dispute it and does n't even responds back.
This is proof positive that Wells Fargo and other committed outright fraud. I have attached supporting documents and case law that supports what they did was outright fraud. Please view the assignment dated XX/XX/XXXX. You can see that Wells Fargo created this assignment for XXXX XXXX. This is not possible because XXXX XXXX XXXX went out of business back in XX/XX/XXXX. If you look at the case law, which is attached you will see that it is not possible. The alleged Assignment of Mortgage which purported to transfer interest in the mortgage to XXXX XXXX as assignee, was invalid because XXXX XXXX as nominee for XXXX XXXX XXXX had no authority to assign the ownership interest of said mortgage, because XXXX XXXX was not the owner of the subject mortgage and was only a nominee for XXXX XXXX XXXX, which was a non existent Corporation. Said purported assignment was without authority and therefore invalid. XXXX XXXX had no ownership interest in the mortgage and was merely named as a nominee for the non-existent corporate mortgagee. Based on the foregoing, Wells Fargo and XXXX XXXX had no standing to bring any actions. Neither had no legal right to attempt to claim ownership of the subject Note and Mortgage, or any right as servicer, for some other unknown entity, and is without any legal basis to attempt to foreclose the subject mortgage, or to collect on the Mortgage Note, because XXXX XXXX XXXX did not exists after XX/XX/XXXX. The collection of mortgage payments by the Plaintiff and its predecessors in interest, was therefore illegal and they were without any legal right to receive and use or disburse the funds therefrom on behalf of any owner of the Note and Mortgage, or any other party. ( They attempted to foreclose on 3 separate occasions ) Another fraudulent assignment which is dated XX/XX/XXXX is attached. You can see that Wells Fargo created this assignment, but indicated that the assignor and assignee was both XXXX XXXX. How can you assign an assignment to yourself. There is also the issue of material fact as to the assignment dated XX/XX/XXXX, which was recorded in XX/XX/XXXX, well after they initiated a foreclosure. This is well documented fraud and the CFPB needs to take action on this immediately.
