Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (MI)

My credit report has certain accounts that I'm not familiar with. Since I never gave them permission, they could be the product of identity theft. Having previously discussed this with you, I'm writing to request that these accounts be promptly deleted from my report in compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which mandates that credit bureaus rectify erroneous information on consumer credit reports. These accounts have caused me stress because they are on my report. It's been difficult to deal with the impact because they don't represent my financial responsibility or credit history. I'm ready to take legal action to protect my rights and find a solution under the FCRA if we can't work this out. The inaccurate items that appear on my credit report have been a big obstacle for me. They're getting in the way of my important financial goals, like buying a house and taking care of my family. I hope we can resolve this issue quickly.

Midland Funding, LLC failed to contact me in writing prior to reporting debt collection to the three credit bureaus.

Company: PORTFOLIO RECOVERY ASSOCIATES INC (NJ)

Portfolio Recovery Associates filed a judgment against me for a debt that I did owe. I sent them a cashier 's check which they cashed on XX/XX/XXXX. I received a letter that my balance is 0. I have spoken to them on the phone numerous times with them stating my balance is 0. Now XXXX months later, they still have not processed my warrant of satisfaction. I have called the court to confirm that they have not received this paperwork. So I have a judgment on my credit report and with the court that I no longer owe. I have called them on 4 separate occasions to have this cleared up only to be told that I can call back. I am sorry but I should not have to keep hounding them to finish this up. I paid the debt, I no longer owe it so the warrant of satisfaction should have been filed a long time ago. This is the second time that I have had to file a complaint against this company. I do not trust them at all!!

Product: Debt collection — Credit card
Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: Northstar Location Services, LLC (VA)

I am in the process of paying this debt collector the amount owed, and I am using the online payment system to minimize communication with them. Their website ( XXXX ) allows you to make payments, no matter what date you choose to make your payment it will be drawn on the day you go to the website and make payment. For example, last month I scheduled the payment for XXXX/XXXX/2016 and I processed the information for the payment on XXXX/XXXX/2016, the payment was drawn out of my bank account on XXXX/XXXX/2016. I have the printout of the information that I submitted for the payment and it clearly indicates XXXX/XXXX/2016 for the payment date. This is deemed as a deceptive and false payment practice of Northstar Location Services and should be investigated, ASAP.

Professional Account Management LLC collecting on behalf of XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ). 
-Sent 2 separate Notices of Assignment to Collection Agency in XX/XX/XXXX for 2 Toll Violations on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX - 15 months after dates. 
-No previous notification from XXXX of ANY toll violation. 
-1 toll violation is not even valid or possible -- it is a southbound toll and I would have be en going Northbound if I was even in the vicinity. 
-Perforated bottom of Collection letter remit statement is incorrect and misleading- it shows an amount due of {$53.00} for 1 toll violation. The amount of {$53.00} is the total for 2 toll violations. I received two separate violation notices in separate envelopes on separate days. Each notice has 1 violation noted but the total amount due is for two = {$53.00}. They are expecting you to just pay it - so you would pay {$100.00} when the total for both violations is {$53.00}. Completely deceptive. 
-They do not provide a physical mailing address only a po box , so no certified letter can be sent to protect my rights.

Please note that I am the author of this complaint and all attachments. 

The credit bureau has violated 15 USC 1681i and 15 USC 1681e. Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. All I have been getting are frivolous, eOscar automated responses. No real investigation was conducted after my initial dispute. 

The furnishers are in violation of 15 USC 1681s-2b ( B ) Reporting information after notice and confirmation of errors A person shall not furnish information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if ( i ) the person has been notified by the consumer, at the address specified by the person for such notices, that specific information is inaccurate ; and ( ii ) the information is, in fact, inaccurate. 

After my dispute of the accuracy of these accounts, the furnishers falsely verified the reporting to be accurate and complete instead of deleting the account from my credit report. This is will non-compliance and I now have a claim under the FCRA with civil liability under 15 US Code 1681n
