Disclosure verification of debt
Right to dispute notice not received
ARS # XXXX I need to see documentation that Account Resolution Services has my signature that authorizes them to even have a copy of my medical records. I do not wish to do business with they company concerning my Medical debt and they can return my records back to the Dr Office this is a HIPPA ACT violation. I understand that a contract exists between me and the 1st party, but what obligation do I have at all to these everchanging array of 3rd parties? I have never heard of them, have no written contract with them and never received any benefit from them. I do not see them being in compliance with basic standard of OHIO LAW ( A ) ( 1 ) As used in this section, " collection agency '' means any person who, for compensation, contingent or otherwise, or for other valuable consideration, offers services to collect an alleged debt asserted to be owed to another. ( 2 ) " Collection agency '' does not mean a person whose collection activities are confined to and directly related to the operation of another business, including, but not limited to, the following : ( a ) Any bank, including the trust department of a bank, trust company, savings and loan association, savings bank, credit union, or fiduciary as defined in section XXXX of the Revised Code, except those that own or operate a collection agency ( b ) Any real estate broker or real estate salesperson, as defined in section XXXX of the Revised Code ( c ) Any retail seller collecting its own accounts ( d ) Any insurance company authorized to do business in this state under Title XXXX of the Revised Code or a health insuring corporation authorized to operate in this state under Chapter 1751. of the Revised Code ( e ) Any public officer or judicial officer acting under order of a court ( f ) Any licensee as defined either in section 1321.01 or 1321.71 of the Revised Code, or any registrant as defined in section 1321.51 of the Revised Code ( g ) Any public utility ( h ) Any person registered to sell interment rights under section 4767.031 of the Revised Code.B ) A collection agency with a place of business in this state may take assignment of another person 's accounts, bills, or other evidences of indebtedness in its own name for the purpose of billing, collecting, or filing suit in its own name as the real party in interest. ( C ) No collection agency shall commence litigation for the collection of an assigned account, bill, or other evidence of indebtedness unless it has taken the assignment in accordance with all of the following requirements : ( 1 ) The assignment was voluntary, properly executed, and acknowledged by the person transferring title to the collection agency. ( 2 ) The collection agency did not require the assignment as a condition to listing the account, bill, or other evidence of indebtedness with the collection agency for collection. ( 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. The written agreement shall state the effective date of the assignment and the consideration paid or given, if any, for the assignment and shall expressly authorize the collection agency to refer the assigned account, bill, or other evidence of indebtedness to an attorney admitted to the practice of law in this state for the commencement of litigation. The written agreement also shall disclose that the collection agency may consolidate, for purposes of filing an action, the assigned account, bill, or other evidence of indebtedness with those of other creditors against an individual debtor or codebtors. ( 4 ) Upon the effective date of the assignment to the collection agency, the creditor 's account maintained by the collection agency in connection with the assigned account, bill, or other.

Private student loan
Dealing with your lender or servicer
Need information about your loan balance or loan terms
Around approx XXXX I consolidated all of my student loans. I started having financial problems and became delinquent and in XXXX filed for bankruptcy. Through my entire bankruptcy, I was not contacted. After my bankruptcy was finalized in XXXX, I was excited to be able to reclaim my credit. I immediately called the XXXX Student Loan XXXX and set up my payments at the full amount of XXXX}. I started paying on time and then lost my job in XXXX of XXXX. I requested and was granted the deferment. I knew that I would restart the payments when I got a new job. Just a XXXX or XXXX later I started receiving calls saying that I owed for my student loans. I told them that I had just been granted a deferment and they said that they did n't do deferments. I was confused and asked more questions and found out that there had been a private student loan that was not consolidated in my payments and the company who identified themselves at XXXX XXXX XXXX and by XXXX. I told them that I did n't understand and that all my loans had been consolidated. They assured me that they had n't and that I would have to pay the entire balance immediately, which was somewhere around XXXX. I told them there was no way because I had just lost my job. They called me every day for the next few days. They finally said that if I made a good faith payment that they could stop calling me for a month. I made the payment over the phone while I was driving to a job interview. I have not been answering their calls anymore. I need help finding out if this loan is my loan and if it is possible to add it into the consolidation that I have with my other loans. Could you please help? I lost my job on XXXX of this past week and am again looking for a new position. The XXXX of not having a job just adds to the collection phone calls. Since my bankruptcy, I have been able to pay all of my bills except this XXXX and I have been able to maintain rebuilding my good credit. This worries me that it 's going to set my credit record back again, just when I was beginning to see progress.

Problem with a lender or other company charging your account
Transaction was not authorized
I received a notification and check from Wells Fargo regarding a legal settlement between Wells Fargo and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau addressing the banks sales practices. The XX/XX/2021 notification indicates that the bank is refunding fees in the amount of {$24.00} because they were assessed before I began using my account. The letter also provides that, This check also includes an additional amount of {$4.00} to compensate you for the time you did not have these funds. Thus, I understand this notification to advise me that Wells Fargo is refunding {$28.00} to me. However, the check is ACTUALLY for only {$24.00}. I write to complain that : ( 1 ) Wells Fargo still owes me the {$4.00} ; and ( 2 ) Wells Fargo has violated its legal settlement with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau by failing to pay out monies to its customers as directed by the agency. Knowing Wells Fargos improper sales practices, I believe my wrong payment amount was NOT an oversight. For this reason, I did not reach out to Wells Fargo as I believe this error is yet another deliberate improper practice by the bank and numerous others have also been wronged in this manner. I will deposit the {$24.00} check before it becomes stale. However, I respectfully request that your agency have the bank send me my {$4.00} WITH INTEREST now accrued thereon and that the agency look into whether numerous others have also, yet again, been victims of Wells Fargos improper practices.

Transunion already agreed to this acct erroneous and inaccurate here proof. These accounts are not mine, they are inaccurate, unverified and unauthorized. ( Exhibit A ) XX/XX/XXXX XXXX was removed after I disputed it on XX/XX/XXXX. Transunion has not even responded to me per the law you say you are required to follow from my initial dispute. Your only response was you removing the account. You are required to respond to me within 30 of my disputed. I spoke to a few reps today XX/XX/2022 specifically XXXX XXXX and he stated that you guys added this acct per fdcpa but that law also states your required to respond to my dispute within 30 days. Why didnt you? So that means you as the entity agreed w me the original creditor that this account is unverifiable. Later with it now being the XXXX of XXXX you re added this account back 2 business days later. What changed from then to now. With you removing this from my account you admitted to this law by removing it which basically means Transion didnt verify this per law. So what made you add this back? How you verify it? XXXX and XXXX wasnt able to verify it so how were you? This abusive act has cause me major financial distress and this is against my individual right to privacy This agency is in violation of 15 USC 1692 ( g ). They were to notify me of this in writing 5 days prior, I was not notified. As the original creditor, only I can validate this debt. I do not validate this debt. Therefore, the following accounts must be deleted from my report immediately : XXXX XXXX XXXX The reporting of these account ( s ) is/are violations of 15 USC 1681 , and the Fair Credit Reporting Act [ 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( B ) ] : ( 2 ) EXCLUSIONS.-Except as provided in paragraph ( 3 ), the term " consumer report '' does not include- ( B ) any authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or similar device : So let me explain.

I am in possession of the documents submitted by Great Lakes as proof that I obtained a lease from them. They did not provide anything with my signature and nothing showing they verified my identity. They did not provide any proof that I consented to their company sharing my private and personal information with a third party, including credit reporting agencies. Please provide SIGNED DOCUMENTATION of this consent to share private information with third parties or assume you do not have any. The consent must be signed separately from the lease per federal law. At this point I have made multiple attempts for this company to cease sharing all personal and private information with ANY AND ALL THIRD PARTIES, INCLUDING CREDIT REPORTING AGENCIES AND THEY HAVE NOT COMPLIED TO FEDERAL LAW. They quote that a wet signature is not needed by the law they cited but by that same law they are also required to provide an option to opt out of electronic services where they clearly and conspicuously explain the softwares needed to use these services and express ability to opt out. Please provide this documentation as well. According to 15 U.S. Code 6802 - Obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information, A financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party unless ( A ) such financial institution clearly and conspicuously discloses to the consumer, in writing or in electronic form or other form permitted by the regulations prescribed under section 6804 of this title, that such information may be disclosed to such third party ; ( B ) the consumer is given the opportunity, before the time that such information is initially disclosed, to direct that such information not be disclosed to such third party ; and ( C ) the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option. So far none of this has been provided. It is my right as a consumer and they are refusing to cooperate in good faith. According to 15 U.S. Code 7001 - General rule of validity, ( c ) Consumer disclosures ( 1 ) Consent to electronic records Notwithstanding subsection ( a ), if a statute, regulation, or other rule of law requires that information relating to a transaction or transactions in or affecting interstate or foreign commerce be provided or made available to a consumer in writing, the use of an electronic record to provide or make available ( whichever is required ) such information satisfies the requirement that such information be in writing if ( A ) the consumer has affirmatively consented to such use and has not withdrawn such consent ; ( B ) the consumer, prior to consenting, is provided with a clear and conspicuous statement ( i ) informing the consumer of ( I ) any right or option of the consumer to have the record provided or made available on paper or in nonelectronic form, and ( II ) the right of the consumer to withdraw the consent to have the record provided or made available in an electronic form and of any conditions, consequences ( which may include termination of the parties relationship ), or fees in the event of such withdrawal ; ( ii ) informing the consumer of whether the consent applies ( I ) only to the particular transaction which gave rise to the obligation to provide the record, or ( II ) to identified categories of records that may be provided or made available during the course of the parties relationship ; ( iii ) describing the procedures the consumer must use to withdraw consent as provided in clause ( i ) and to update information needed to contact the consumer electronically ; and ( iv ) informing the consumer ( I ) how, after the consent, the consumer may, upon request, obtain a paper copy of an electronic record, and ( II ) whether any fee will be charged for such copy ; ( C ) the consumer ( i ) prior to consenting, is provided with a statement of the hardware and software requirements for access to and retention of the electronic records ; and ( ii ) consents electronically, or confirms his or her consent electronically, in a manner that reasonably demonstrates that the consumer can access information in the electronic form that will be used to provide the information that is the subject of the consent ; None of which has been provided.

My account was past due in XXXX however I bought it current in XXXX, XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I paid over {$1000.00} dollars between XXXX and XXXX of XXXX however on my credit report it reads " Past due for XXXX and XXXX of XXXX. I keep my recents and went back up to the store and showed the head manager in XXXX and she said " once you make the payment it is out of our hands. '' She looked at the receipts and acknowledged that the receipts that I was showing her were indeed not past due. SHe knew this because she saw that the due date was the XXXX of every month and she saw that payments were made on the XXXX of each month. She then advised me to call headquarters which I did but they insisted that I was past due even after I had told them that my wife had called in XXXX in XXXX and spoke with a representative about the same incident and this representative told my wife, " Yes ma'am I see where you made the payment before the due date so I will fix that right away! '' When I looked back on my credit report the past due for XXXX was deleted. XXXX came first as past due then XXXX which is impossible because the receipts show that several payments were made in XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. Headquarters did nothing even after I emailed them my receipts to them.

Problem with fees
I had a past due balance of {$710.00} which I paid in full XX/XX/XXXX. I received two finance charges on XX/XX/XXXX {$2.00} and {$3.00}. I called comenity XXXX in XXXX and the rep said she could reversed the charges. This didn't happen. In XXXX messaged XXXX and XXXX XXXX the rep who responded to my inquiry said I was getting charged and I needed to pay. The same thing happened with my other comenity card at XXXX except they reversed the charges because I had paid the account in full. I had been and am getting charged two finance charges a month on each card. I thought having a 0 balance would mean no interest. comenity bank cards are the worst for interest taking advantage of people.

THESE BALANCES IS IN ACCURATE, PAYMENT STATUS AND HISTORY IN ACCURATE, LAST ACTIVITY DATE IS IN ACCURATE, ALL INFORMATION REGARDING THESE NEGATIVE INSTALLMENT LOAN IS INACCURATE.Someone is using my personal information pretending to be me to obtain credit.

I never gave THESE CREDITORS ANY WRITTEN CONSENT OR AUTHORIZATION TO USE MY PERSONAL INFORMATION TO OPEN THIS ACCOUNT. THIS IS FRAUD. I'VE ASK FOR SIGNED DOCUMENTS WITH MY SIGNATURE GIVING WRITTEN CONSENT TO OPEN THIS FRAUDULENT CREDIT ACCOUNTS. SOMEONE USE MY PERSONAL INFORMATION PRETENDING TO BE ME WITHOUT MY AUTHORIZATION OR CONSENT TO OPEN OR CLOSE ANY CREDIT ACCOUNT WITH THESE CREDITORS BELOW They also violated the law because according to 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. states i have the rights to privacy 15 U.S.C 1681 section 604 section 2 : it also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written consent.

I disputed the account because I noticed it was on my credit report and I did not authorize this account. To dispute this account, I mailed a dispute letter, a copy of my FTC report for identity theft, a copy of my police report for fraud/impersonation/identity theft, 3 forms of personal identification ( copies of my driver 's license, my social security card, and one of my recent bank statements from the past 3 months ) along with a copy of the page of my credit report ( s ) on which the account was listed, in an envelope sent to the creditor of the account and I also put copies of the same documents in envelopes sent to all three credit bureaus ( Experian, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX via USPS certified mail with return receipt, this was more than 60 days ago. The creditor and the credit bureaus have not mailed me a notarized contract with my signature on it within their 30-day allotted timeframe allowed by the FCRA ( Fair Credit Reporting Act ) to validate the account, and thus the account must be immediately deemed invalid, fraudulent, and not my liability, and it is hereby illegal for the credit bureaus and creditors to report this account on my credit report because the account was not validated within the required 30-day timeframe, and so the solution to my complaint is for the credit bureaus and for the creditor to immediately delete this account from my credit report. If the creditors and credit bureaus do not do this, I have the power and the evidence to sue them and win {$10000.00} due to the illegal credit reporting acts that they have committed which continue to harm my credit worthiness and access to financial wealth-building opportunities such as loans for real estate purchases. The account was already charged off as well so the creditor does not even have the right to report information about this account since they charged off the account to a collections company. The information for this account listed on my credit report is : XXXX XXXX XXXX, BALANCE {$1800.00}, OPENED XX/XX/2019, ACCOUNT XXXX

Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed
Debt was paid
In XX/XX/XXXX I had a payday loan with XXXX in the amount of {$500.00} - the APR at 390 %. Upon paying the loan I was told I received a loan in the amount of {$600.00}. I informed XXXX I received {$500.00}, and had their documentation to prove it. However, a few months later I came to realize payday loans were illegal in New Jersey or at best there were usury limitations which clearly XXXX had exceeded.. I had three payments debited from my bank account, and before the fourth I sent XXXX a letter stating Payday loans were illegal in NJ and also mentioned usury law, and at this time I was revoking my ACH withdrawals, but would repay the principal via money order - which I did. XXXX stated they were not governed by NJ Law, but is governed by the XXXX band of XXXX of ND, and the principal and interest would have to be paid even though there payments are mailed to XXXX, IL. However, I repeated what I stated in my previous letter to them, and continued to pay the principal balance. I soon received phone calls from their Customer Service Dept., stating I owed money and if not repaid ( principal and interest ) it would be turned over to their Collections Dept. From that point on calls I received from XXXX were identified as Fraud Dept. and the same goes for the emails I received ... Fraud Dept. Eventually, approximately three months later the calls stopped. Now, in XX/XX/XXXX I have received a letter from a Collection agency with their letterhead reading Credit Control , LLC in XXXX MO and the Creditor is listed as XXXX. The address listed for Credit Control LLC is XXXX, XXXX MO XXXX. Phone number is XXXX. There is n't any information on XXXX XXXX, XXXX - just listed as the Current Creditor, and XXXX as the Original Creditor. The debt owed on this paperwork is {$1000.00} which is simply not true. I see several online addresses on XXXX XXXX ( which I listed below ). Also, in researching XXXX XXXX it shows the BBB had downgraded to an XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX, and the FTC filed an injunction on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX XXXX, XXXX. XXXX, FL XXXX I 'm not sure who this company is or what name they do business under - or how they continue to do business. The FTC has filed an injunction against them and they have been downgraded to XXXX with the BBB, and list an amount owed that is untrue.

I opened an account around XX/XX/2021, at Wells Fargo, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, AR XXXX. About 2weeks later I'm getting calls accusing me of using a non-existent address. They ask for verification. I ask them if the mail from them, including the parcel containing my debit card, from them, would suffice, they say 'yes that's perfect '. So upon taking the mail into Wells Fargo the banker on site tells me that mail isn't good enough. If the address doesn't exist, how did I receive the debit card in the mail?! In addition, I brought mail from XXXX, pay stubs, & XXXX XXXX. They tell me it must b a utility bill. Well the utilities r in my BF 's name. I have >10 pieces of mail within the last 30 days, but nothing is good enough for them. They literally ask me to use a fictitious address so that their system will accept it & try to get forwarding thru USPS to my actual address over their computer glitch. I would have simply just told them to forget about it & close the account, but I have already registered that account with the IRS for my tax returns & other obligations. So now I have about 10 days remaining to either print some fake mail, or have something sent to a friend 's address under my name in order to keep this account open long enough that it doesn't delay my tax refund or default on my bills. They threaten that if, in 10 days, I can't fabricate a false address that their computer likes, they will close down my account. Again, had I not already filed my taxes, I would have just initiated as many bill pays as possible to friends ' accounts & overdrafted the account as much as I possibly could & tell them XXXX. But now u have direct deposits & direct debits set up. Wells Fargo 's negligence & horrible business practices could potentially not only delay my irs return, but will also cause payment defaults to multiple vendors & I will not pay returned item fees for bounced checks caused by WF, I'll just default & use new vendors & when they try to collect, I'll send them to WF. If my address was unacceptable, y wasn't I told right there when I opened the account, because they knew I'd leave and go to another bank. No they wait until you deposit more $ , set up DD, bill pay, etc, so that it becomes difficult to simply say XXXX XXXX and bank elsewhere. ( THIS PARA IS A BIT OFF-SUBJECT ) Thus is an issue not only w/ Wells Fargo XXXX but many other companies as well. One may open an account with an unacceptable address or say, an expired ID & these institutions don't say anything upfront. They go right ahead & open the accounts & wait until you make a substantial deposit, then lock your account & say 'o well your id is expired, so your account is locked till u get a new one '. U knew my id was expired, or my address was unacceptable when u opened the account for me but chose not to say anything or take any action until there us money to b held hostage. Thus us seriously a huge issue. I'm sure that there r billions of dollars being held hostage by different financial institutions, especially online banks. It's a big scam that these companies or running. They r looking for any reason to lock ones account and hold people 's money.

Due to the recent COVID-19 guidelines, I was forced to close my XXXX. I reached out to American Express on XX/XX/ to ask if I could lower my monthly payment or have a reduction in interest. I also suggested I transfer the balance to a different card with lower interest and was told I could not do that. It is common for me to spend 10-20k on this card in a month, on behalf of my XXXX, and I have always paid it in full monthly. I have never had a late payment with this creditor. The representative refused to work with me and kept responding with the interest rate of nearly 24 %. I asked if I could speak with someone else regarding the situation and was then disconnected by American Express.

I still continued to get harassing calls everyday even while on the arrangement. This account is now paid off.

I applied for a recent loan consolidation of my federal student loans in XX/XX/2022. On XX/XX/XXXX, AidAdvantage sent me a letter rejecting several XXXX XXXX XXXX for a reason code XXXX, which referred to an in-school status. Unfortunately, this was a clerical error on the part of XXXX XXXX. Once I got the letter and saw the clerical error of in-school status applied to some of my loans while others at Great Lakes were in the forbearance or grace status that allowed my consolidation since I waived the grace period on my application, I contacted XXXX XXXX to fix the clerical error. They fixed the wrong status on my loans. I immediately called AidAdvantage since the letter states I can simply call in my corrections or ask them to fix errors. This is very simply they need to repull the data about the set of rejected loans and fix my consolidation loan so it encompasses all of the loans. After being assured by AidAdvantage over the phone that my loans would be sent to the department and a new summary statement would be mailed to me since I was in the 10 day correction window, the company then underhandedly didn't actually do what they told me on the recorded call. They didn't send loans for any correction. Today, XX/XX/2022 when I called in a new rep said they only see notes of the rep noting issues and no action done to solve them. As a result, they told me I'm screwed over since my loan was not fixed in the required window for correction. They said they would send an " urgent message '' to the department since the letter they sent me clearly said I could call or email corrections. As attached to this complaint, I also emailed in that they needed to make these fixes. The email the company provides bounces, yet they list it as a legit contact in their letter. Since I can not manage to get a live human to do any work at this company, I'm now asking that the Attorney General 's office and the Department of Education in formal complaints to actually help get involved in this matter because this is not only unjust it robs me of qualifying for PSLF by the XXXX deadline. Now the company is saying they can not say if or when or if ever I will get my loans consolidated in time to qualify for PSLF before the XXXX deadline. I am not allowed to apply for PSLF without the loans being consolidated and with Aid Advantage not having an operable email as they are ignoring my calls and ignoring my emails, I do not know what else to do to fix this matter. They keep giving me wrong or incomplete information and my loans are not being consolidated and are not being corrected despite their error and a clerical error that should have been easily clarified and fixed within the 10 day window. Will you please assist in an expedited resolution of this urgent matter? To resolve this, I want the company, AidVantage to : Consolidate all of their erroneously rejected loans with the status of XXXX from their XX/XX/XXXX letter with my other loans in my consolidation loan. Issue a corrected summary statement showing the loans were combined.

Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
I've submitted dispute documents on Monday, XX/XX/2021, XXXX XXXX to Experian disputing a bankruptcy, and on Saturday, XX/XX/2021, XXXX XXXX to XXXX. Both companies are reporting my bankruptcy as accurate even though XXXX and XXXX could not find any information of a bankruptcy at all and deleted it from my report. I've contacted both companies and have not received the proper results.

There are accounts listed on my consumer report that have originated from identity theft. I did not provide written authorization, including a wet signature, for these accounts to be included in my consumer report. I have recently communicated with your organization regarding this matter and I am hereby requesting that these accounts be promptly blocked and removed from my report. The inclusion of these unauthorized items has caused significant emotional and financial distress, as they inaccurately reflect my credit history and responsibilities. If this issue is not appropriately addressed, I am prepared to take legal action. The presence of these fraudulent items on my credit record has hindered my ability to achieve my financial goals, such as purchasing a home and meeting the needs of my family.

So for the past 8 months I have been trying to get a charge off removed from my Equifax credit report. This charge off isnt mine, but Equifax has it as my old XXXX XXXX account. When I did further research I found that this account was clearly paid in full and then later closed the account. I've given Equifax the letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX showing account paid in full but they still refuse to remove it. I do have an attorney involved and will pursue a lawsuit if this matter isn't resolved. I want this charge off removed immediately. It has hindered me in attempts to get a business loan.

Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem

I am having a difficult time getting Experian to remove an account that they are inaccurately reporting. I have sent many dispute letters to the point of no avail. They are reporting that the account XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was late 4 times and eventually charged off. This is not true. The account was never charged off and I have contacted the company to ask for the 1099c form and to see what company it was sold to and they reassured me that the account was closed and not sold. During 2020, I was on deferment due to XXXX so there should be no late payments according to the FCRA. Also, both XXXX and XXXX are not reporting this account so there is no way that Experian is in compliance. I am asking that Experian removes the account from my credit report or update the account to paid as agreed never late, removing all late payments for their negligence. I am aware that I can be compensated up to {$1000.00} per violation, but at this time I am only interested in the deletion of the inaccurate information to reflect my true credit profile as this is causing me extreme distress. I do look forward to a response within 15 days.

I am submitting this CFPB Complaint regarding fraudulent items on my credit report. I have recently discovered several items on my credit report that I did not authorize or participate in. These items are damaging my credit score and causing significant financial harm. I have taken steps to dispute these fraudulent items with the credit reporting agencies and the creditors in question, but have not received a satisfactory resolution. Despite providing documentation and evidence of the fraudulent activity, these items remain on my credit report and continue to damage my credit score. I believe that the fraudulent items on my credit report are the result of identity theft, and I am deeply concerned about the potential impact on my financial well-being. I am requesting that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that these fraudulent items are removed from my credit report and that my credit score is restored to its previous level. I need the following items removed from my Credit FIle : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$0.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance : {$0.00} XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance XXXX {$0.00} XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance XXXX {$0.00} XXXX XXXX Balance : {$0.00} XXXX XXXX Balance : {$0.00} ABILITY XXXX XXXXXXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Balance XXXX {$6600.00} XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX. Specifically, the fraudulent items on my credit report include several credit accounts that I did not open, as well as several charges and loans that I did not initiate or receive. The total amount of these fraudulent items is significant and has had a negative impact on my credit score.

In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

This date should reflect the FCRA compliance date which should not be changed. XXXX {$11000.00} This account is inaccurate showing a High balance of {$12000.00} on TransUnion but on XXXX shows {$11000.00}. The date of the last payment on XXXX shows XX/XX/XXXX with the date of last activity of XX/XX/XXXX but TransUnion the date of last payment is XX/XX/XXXX with a date of last activity showing XX/XX/XXXX.

However, upon recently checking my credit report, I noticed that there are three bills from XXXX sent to collections as recently as XX/XX/XXXX.

They advised me that it was my responsibility to obtain this information from other sources, including Americollect, the collection agency, and my insurance company, XXXX XXXX XXXX. After contacting XXXX on XXXX, I was advised to email . On XX/XX/XXXX, I did so. I was contacted by email by an XXXX representative named XXXX XXXX XXXX. I do not know her title or department. XXXX XXXX advised me that due to a new billing system, I have two billing accounts with XXXX: one for physician services and one for facility services. At one time, there were three billing accounts. This is where I believe mistakes were made in applying payments. XXXX XXXX has provided me with statements that show a breakdown of bills that she claims that I owe. However, she has not yet provided me with the most important piece of information that I need: an official breakdown of an $XXXX payment that I made to XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I asked XXXX XXXX for this information several times, and as of this writing, have not received it. On Friday, XX/XX/XXXX, I emailed XXXX XXXX and told her that if I did not receive it by the end of that day, I was going to file an official complaint against XXXX. I am asking for an investigation of how XXXX has handled this situation. Thank you.

Debt collection
I do not know
Attempts to collect debt not owed
Debt was result of identity theft
My name is XXXX XXXX, a federally protected consumer, and I am making this complaint against Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC for a number of federal violations. I have never given Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC any permission to use any of my identifying information to commit mail fraud by contacting me about an alleged debt they claim I owe. I am aware that in accordance with Article 9, the assignment of a defaulted note is illegal. Both the assignee and the assigned are both liable for violations under 15 U.S. Code 1692e ( 12 ). I have never received any documentation requesting validation from Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC before they committed multiple violations under the FCRA and the FDCPA by furnishing this alleged debt to my consumer report including but not limited to 15 U.S. Code 1692d ( 4 ) which the FTC defines as debt parking. If Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC can not provide me with proof such as a tracking number that they attempted to lawfully validate this alleged debt with me ( the consumer ) prior to furnishing it on my consumer report, this has been a fraudulently furnished account with forethought and malice as an attempt to bring harm to me and my financial reputation. I am legally refusing to pay this debt pursuant to 1692c ( c ). I am demanding a cease and desist of all illegal activity, any communication and collection activity, of this and any alleged debts until Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC can provide me with sufficient documentary evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay them such as a trilateral contract. If this documentary evidence can not be produced and Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC continues its collection efforts, I will file for litigation for actual damages caused and Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC will be held criminally liable for aggravated identity theft pursuant to 18 USC 1028A, extortion, theft by deception, securities fraud, and mail fraud. Upon the receipt of the documents herein and of this notice, you are hereby notified Pursuant UCC 1-202f. Your prompt attention and response are both requested and required.

I have disputed this account from my TRANSUNION consumer report on multiple occasions because I never gave TRANSUNION or XXXX direct consent to furnish this information. No direct consent is identity theft! On XX/XX/2021 I served XXXX with a cease and desist and requested that they provide me with the valid documentary evidence for verification of the alleged debt they are attempting to collect. They have also been harassing me by communicating indirectly to TRANSUNION and publishing information that is harmful and defamation of my character! It is a fact, TRANSUNION has NEVER had my direct consent to furnish this information on my consumer report. I have received multiple notices from TRANSUNION stating that this account has been verified as accurate without providing any adequate documentary evidence that I gave them consent to furnish this information. I am demanding that they delete this account immediately as they are harming my reputation as a consumer!

On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer.

NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION IS IN VIOLATION OF THE SOLDIERS AND SAILERS ACT. THEY ARE NOT SUPPOSE TO CHARGE INTEREST ON AN ACCOUNT Benefit and Protection No. 1 The six percent interest rate cap. 50 U.S.C. 3937 The SCRA limits the amount of interest that may be charged on certain financial obligations that were incurred prior to military service to no more than six percent per year, including most fees. 50 U.S.C. 3937 ( a ) ( 1 ) & ( d ) ( 1 ). In order to have the interest rate on a financial obligation such as a credit card or a mortgage capped at six percent per year, a servicemember must provide the creditor with written notice and a copy of his or her military orders or other appropriate indicator of military service ( such as a letter from a commanding officer ). Id. at 3937 ( b ) ( 1 ). The written notice and proof of military service must be provided to the creditor within 180 days of the end of the servicemembers military service. Id. In response, a creditor must forgive not defer interest greater than six percent per year. See 50 U.S.C. 3937 ( a ) ( 2 ). The creditor must forgive this interest retroactively. See id. at 3937 ( a ) ( 1 ) & ( b ) ( 2 ). The creditor is also prohibited from accelerating the payment of principal in response to a properly made request for a six percent interest rate cap. Id. at 3937 ( a ) ( 3 ). For mortgages, interest is capped at six percent during the entire period of military service and for one year after the period of military service. 50 U.S.C. 3937 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). For all other obligations, interest is capped at six percent only for the duration of the period of military service. Id. at 3937 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( B ). A hypothetical under Section 3937 of the SCRA, 50 U.S.C. 3937 : John Doe takes out a mortgage and then enters military service. Captain John Doe is in military service continuously for 20 years. Captain Doe retires from military service and on the 179th day of his retirement asks that the interest rate on his mortgage be lowered to six percent per year. Captain Doe provides his creditor with a written notice and a copy of all of his military orders. The creditor must forgive the entire 20 years of interest that was at a rate greater than six percent inclusive of fees and an additional year of interest going forward. See, generally, 50 U.S.C. 3937. The following types of financial obligations, among others, are currently eligible for the six percent SCRA interest rate benefit : credit cards ; automobile, ATV, boat and other vehicle loans ; mortgages ; home equity loans ; and student loans. See, e.g., 50 U.S.C. 3937 ( d ) ( 2 ). On August 14, 2008, President Bush signed into law the Higher Education Opportunity Act, P.L. 110-315, that, among other things, amended 20 U.S.C. 1078 ( d ) to make federally guaranteed student loans protected under the SCRA. That means that prior to August 14, 2008, the SCRA did not cover federally guaranteed student loans. So, for federally guaranteed student loans that originated before August 14, 2008, such as student loans that originated under the Federal Family Education Loan ( FFEL ) Program and Direct Loans from the Department of Education, the servicemember borrower is not covered by the SCRA. A student loan hypothetical under Section 3937 of the SCRA, 50 U.S.C. 3937 : John Doe takes out five private student loans prior to entering into military service. After entering military service, Servicemember Doe consolidates his five loans into one loan. Six months later, he hears about the SCRAs six percent interest rate cap and requests that the interest rate on his loan be lowered to six percent per year. He sends in a written notice and a copy of his military orders. Question : Is Servicemember Doe entitled to the six percent interest rate cap? Answer : Only for the period of time between when he entered military service and when he consolidated his private student loans. Servicemember Does existing student loan originated during a period of military service. See 50 U.S.C. 3937 ( a ) ( 1 ).

Closing an account
Company closed your account
We had a business checking account ( Acct # XXXX ) with Bank of America to accept payments from our customers for advertisement services. On XX/XX/2019, we had a returned check of {$300.00} ( Check # XXXX, please see attachment for check image ) from XXXX XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/2019, we found out that our business bank account was locked. After visiting the bank on the same day, we were told the account was under force closure due to a counterfeit check deposited, which is the one mentioned above, the returned check numbered XXXX from XXXX XXXX. It's being handled by the Risk Department and they would not allow us to dispute or close our account before they close it and they were rude on the phone to the banker who was helping us to get more information on this matter. We also contacted our customer, check writer, to find out what really happened as to if it is really a counterfeit check?? And here 's what happened : The customer who wrote that {$300.00} check contacted his bank ( XXXX XXXX ) to stop the check because he didn't see his ad on the website the same day he paid, so he thought his ad was not on. Ads are posted one or two days after the ad fee is paid. So he called XXXX XXXX XXXX to refuse payment without asking us first. The customer stated that a XXXX XXXX representative suggested to him ( over the phone ) to close the current checking account and open a new one, so the check # XXXX will not get cashed. Therefore, the customer closed his XXXX XXXX checking account associated with check # XXXX. And that was the reason why that check bounced. Our Bank of America business checking account didn't show any problems until XXXX. Bank of America made the decision to close our business account without any type of notification to us, no email, no mail, no phone calls, no text messages, no In-App message, simply ZERO communication and notification. We must make it clear that the check # XXXX from XXXX XXXX was NOT a counterfeit check, that check is genuine, it belongs to the customer ( XXXX XXXX ) and his mother ( XXXX XXXX ). It was written from the joint XXXX XXXX checking account in both their names. Please note, XXXX XXXX is our customer and owner of the business paying for advertising. The customer XXXX has said that he can talk to Risk Department of Bank of America to explain the situation, but Bank of America Risk Department would not give us any chance to explain. The banker at the local BofA branch told us, once the Risk Department made the decision to close someone's account, no one can do anything, their Risk Department is above all. The banker also said she has lost many customers due to this kind of force closure by their Risk Department with no warning to the customer. Furthermore, my personal Bank of America checking account also got force closed by the Risk Department on Friday, XX/XX/2019, it's really hilarious that my personal checking account is newly opened on Tuesday, XX/XX/2019, and there is no activity yet. I opened the personal checking account with Bank of America only for our customers ' convenience, otherwise, I would never want to open any account with Bank of America in the future. This bank is really using abusive and unfair business practices inconsistent with the American way of business and I am sure inconsistent with the principles of CFPB. Bank of America made an INCORRECT conclusion/decision after two months of investigation, that is so not professional, and we do not accept this unfair outcome. Bank of America lets a {$300.00} check ruin my and my companys credit, is this how they treat the consumers?

I have spent 3 years getting XXXX excuse after another as to why my forgiveness has not been granted. I was told paper work had a problem, it takes a while to process, keep asking for deferment, it is forgiven but takes a few weeks to show. Now they have XXXX other social security numbers attached to my name and said I was denied in XXXX which was news to me. If they do n't know who I am why can they talk to me and if my loan was denied why am I getting to defer my payments still. I learned this XXXX XXXX XXXX. I am afraid if I reapply this will start all over and they will drag it on again saying it is a new application

Hello- This is a transaction involving my Banker Capital One 360 and XXXX . I had registered on XXXX my Capital One Checking account. On XX/XX/XXXX a suspicious transaction of {$530.00} was noticed on my Bank account. This amount was withdrawn by XXXX from my Capital one 360 account. Subsequently i logged a incident with Capital one and XXXX on the same day. Later on XX/XX/XXXX Capital One 360 credited this amount back into my bank account, so did XXXX on XX/XX/2020. So i received a double credit from both the financial institution. I had to refund the amount back to XXXX Instead of enabling the process the ACH freeze had been put on my account and iam unable to transfer the amount back to XXXX. Reached out to my Bank Capital one and they pass the buck to XXXX and XXXX back to the Bank. I get reminders on the email to credit XXXX with XXXX, which i want to. However, because of ach freeze on my checking account, iam unable to do so. Have been a longstanding customer with both the financial institutions over 10 plus years. This is the first time iam encountering such utter customer dissatisfaction. They are refusing to provide basic service and it is appalling. regards XXXX XXXX
