Company: NCB Management Services Inc. (FL)

I have previously complained about NCB including complaint # XXXX XXXX XXXX NCB has negatively reported a collection of an alleged debt that has not been validated. They have sent me a credit application for XXXXXXXX XXXX, a transaction History from XXXX XXXXXXXX, and a Assignment and Bill of Sale between XXXXXXXX XXXX and NCB ( which does not represent the entire contract between them ) ; however, I never entered into a contract with NCB nor are the documents sent in a proper validation of this alleged debt. However, after reading the FTC report from XX/XX/XXXX " The Structure and Practices of the Debt Buying Industry '' I am requesting the forward-flow agreement between XXXX XXXX  and NCB, I also request the full portfolio they bought which says the total amount paid for said alleged debt, I would like to point out that as per said report the FTC alleged that companies fail to adequately verify disputed debts and quoted : " United States v. Asset Acceptance , LLC, No : 8:12-cv-00182 ( M.D. Fla. XXXX XXXX XXXX  ), available at http : //www.ftc.gov/ opa/XXXX/asset.shtm ( debt collector settled allegations that it violated the FTC Act by lacking a reasonable basis for representing to borrowers that they owed a debt ( 1 ) when the debt collector had reason to believe certain portfolios contained unreliable data and ( 2 ) after the borrowers disputed the debt ) ; see also United States v. Allied Interstate, Inc., No.

0:10-cv-04295 ( D. Minn. XXXX XXXX XXXX ), available at http : //www.ftc.gov/opa/XXXX/alliedinterstate.shtm ( debt collector settled allegations that it violated Section 5 of the FTC Act by lacking a reasonable basis for representing to borrowers that they owed a debt after the borrowers disputed the debt ) ; United States v. Credit Bureau Collection Servs. , No . 2:10-cv-169 ( S.D. Ohio XXXX XXXX XXXX  ), available at http : //www.ftc.gov/opa/2010/03/creditcollect.shtm ( debt collector settled allegations that it violated Section 5 of the FTC Act by lacking a reasonable basis for representing to borrowers that they owed a debt ) ; FTC v. EMC Mortg. Corp., No. 4:08-cv-338 ( E.D. Tex. XXXX XXXX XXXX  ), available at http : //www.ftc.gov/opa/XXXX emc.shtm ( mortgage servicer settled allegations that it violated Section 5 of the FTC Act by lacking a reasonable basis for representations that it made to borrowers, including claims about the unpaid principal amount, the due date, the interest rate, the delinquency status, and fees and corporate advances that prior mortgage loan servicers had assessed ). '' Additionally, the FTC has come to the conclusion that original creditors give incomplete file information to debt buyers, with this how can NCB claim to have verified this alleged debt belongs to me or its accuracy? Additionally, I never received a first communication from NCB regarding this alleged debt as required by law ; which is a violation!

Company: Southwest Credit Systems, L.P. (MD)

I am writing to dispute the following information that appears on my XXXX consumer report : SOUTHWEST CREDIT SYSTEMS Creditor : XXXX Creditor Account No. : XXXX Balance Owed : {$110.00} On XX/XX/XXXX a collection for {$110.00}, owed to SOUTHWEST CREDIT SYSTEMS, was added to my XXXX credit report. On XX/XX/XXXX I opened a despute challenging the validity of the collection reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX and requested the method of account verification and proof bearing my signature, stating that I have ( or ever had ) some contractual obligation to pay them. The " request letter '' was received by XXXX XXXX XXXX via USPS Certified Mail on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from XXXX which outlined their investigation methods. XXXX then marked the account as verified, never stating their method of verification. I then contacted SOUTHWEST CREDIT SYSTEMS via USPS on XX/XX/XXXX, requesting any proof of a contractual agreement between myself and their company. In response to that request I received a cover page with SOUTHWEST 's letterhead and a copy of a XXXX phone bill, not any sort of contract bearing my signature drafted between myself and SOUTHWEST CREDIT SYSTEMS . 

Both SOUTHWEST CREDIT SYSTEMS and XXXX XXXX XXXX have failed to produce any competent evidence showing a contractual agreement was made between myself and SOUTHWEST CREDIT SYSTEMS, therefore I demand that this negative and incorrect information be removed from my credit report immediately.

In addition this is not my collection. PLEASE FURNISH ME A BINDING CONTRACT BETWEEN ME AND THIS COMPANY Also, they have Violated my rights even more In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Everything must be 100 % accurate on my consumer report. 
The Credit Bureaus stated my accounts was properly investigated, How is that possible if the OPEN DATE, BALANCE, HIGH CREDIT, CREDIT LIMIT, PAST DUE, PAYMENT STATUS, LAST REPORTED, DATE LAST ACTIVE, DATE OF LAST PAYMENT is inaccurate. This is ground for REMOVAL/DELETION In addition, they also Violated my LAW because according To 15USC 1681 Section 602A States I have the right of Privacy 15 USC 1681 Section 604A It also states consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (VA)

On XXXX/XXXX/2021, I sent a letter regarding inaccurate and unknown items on my credit report. It has been over 60 days since I sent my letter and I have yet to receive a response. I'm not sure if my disputes are being ignored and I am being taken advantage of. It is stated in section 611 ( a ), that a failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove them from my credit report. It has been over 60 days so they should be deleted at once. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will have to file for litigation. This situation has caused stress and has negatively affected my living situation. I feel that these accounts are adversely affecting my credit report and costing me countless dollars in interest. My information was also impacted by the XXXX Data Breach and may have got into the hands of the wrong person.

Despite the multiple previous written requests, the unverified item listed below still remains on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditor documentation on file to verify that this information is 100 % true, accurate & correct.

In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigation ( s ), you stated in writing that you verified that this item is being reported correctly? Who verified this account? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, you have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). Please be advised that under Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to promptly CORRECT or DELETE all information which can not be verified.

Section 616 and Section 617 provide me with a remedy which Im about to seek. You are wilful non-complying with the FCRA.

Since you claim youve verified the account listed below I wanted to confirm my thoughts and contacted the company directly. They did not provide me with any verifiable proof. So, my question comes up again, WHO VERIFIED THIS ACCOUNT? I believe you have not verified this account based on Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & I will be seeking a legal remedy.
