Company: U.S. BANCORP (WA)

US Bank has had XXXX my sellers files under review for short sale approval for the XXXX time since XXXX. The file was completed and sent to a negotiator for a new BPO to be ordered and a new value to be placed on the property. I notified the bank several different times regarding the condition of the property. There was a break in about a year ago and all of the plumbing, electrical has been removed from the home.. US Bank filed an insurance claim against the property for the damage done, but never did fix anything. I was notified by my new negotiator that the BPO was in. That was strange due to the lock box never being opened since XXXX of this year. I asked when the BPO agent was there and he said the XXXX week XX/XX/XXXX. I told him about the condition of the property and he told me the BPO did not have any of this info on it and the pictures that they had also did not indicate the CURRENT condition of the property. I was told by this negotiator that he was just going to close out my file since the BPO and insurance claim were not on file for him to see and our offer was not meeting their VALUES. I told him that I was going to dispute this value and the validity of the BPO. the pictures they have on file are supposed to be from this XX/XX/XXXX, which is impossible since no one has accessed our key box XX/XX/XXXX. There is apparently FRAUD going on here because the negotiator will not investigate this discrepancy or find out why the BPO agent stated this was a recent value. I sent the negotiator the inspection report along with color pictures. bids to repair this work along with the buyers counter offer XXXX. The new assessors value for taxes show the value to be about XXXX which is FAR less than the XXXX value that they have place on it under a BOGUS valuation. This is fraud!

I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information being reported on my credit report regarding a charge-off. The account in question is listed as follows : Creditor Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Account Number : XXXX Date of Charge-Off : XX/XX/year> It has come to my attention that the charge-off is being reported month after month on my payment history, which is incorrect. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), negative information such as a charge-off should only be reported once, corresponding to the date it was charged off. 
The FCRA requires that credit reporting agencies ensure the accuracy of the information they report ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ). Repeatedly reporting the charge-off each month results in a misleading and inaccurate credit report, which has significantly harmed my credit score. Additionally, the statute of limitations for reporting a charge-off is seven years from the date of the first delinquency that led to the charge-off ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 4 ) ). Continuously reporting this charge-off as a new event each month does not reset the statute of limitations and is improper. 
I request that you promptly investigate this account and correct the inaccurate information by removing the repeated entries of the charge-off from my payment history. Please update my credit report accordingly and provide me with a confirmation of these corrections. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. 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.

I recently submitted a letter regarding the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report, but it's now been over XXXX days, and I haven't received any response. This lack of action is really concerning. According to Section XXXX ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), youre required to investigate disputed items within XXXX days, and if you don't, those items must be removed from my report. 

Since it's been more than XXXX days, I expect my credit report to be updated immediately, reflecting the removal of the disputed accounts. If this isn't resolved quickly, XXXX have no choice but to consider legal action, as this ongoing delay has caused me considerable stress. 

Additionally, I was affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion data breaches, which makes me even more worried about how my personal information is being handled.

Issue: Credit card protection / Debt protection — 
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (WA)

I have been battling with Bank of America/Credit Protection Plus for years and have had enough. I have been passed from person to person without any hint of a resolution and the ordeal has ruined my credit and been an incredible burden on me. 

While I was in college I racked up my credit card bill close to it 's upper limit of {$8000.00}. Not wanting to carry a balance or gain interest, I paid off the balance of my credit card ( all at once ) with the exception of the $ 1000+ I had been charged in Credit Protection Plus against my permission ( and had asked repeatedly to be removed from ). I tried, and tried and tried to get them to take these charges off, and get them to stop charging me for CPP - both before and after I paid off my card. Even after I paid off my card and talked to many people about my issue, they did not remove me from the CPP program and my bill crept back up as a result of recurring CPP charges and interest/late fees on the initial CPP charges I left open. I asked them to provide me proof that I enrolled in the program and they could not. I do n't remember enrolling in the program and they certainly did not remove me from the program despite many requests. Thier defense was that I was enrolled in the program for quite some time so I could n't just backtrack those charges. As a college student, it took me awhile to initially catch on to the fact that I was being charged for this service as I had never requested it to begin with. I should have been more aware and on top of it but I was a college student who racked up her bill to nearly {$8000.00} so I was n't going through my bill with a fine tooth comb. 

Frustrated from hours of unhelpful phone calls and unwilling to pay for something I did n't sign up for, I pushed it aside. Recently the other members of my family all received large refunds in the CPP class action lawsuit but I was not included in this suit because I refused to pay from the beginning. I did not realized how bad this actually affected me until I applied for a credit card and was rejected. I got a credit report and found that my account had been 'Key Delinquency ' for years because of this dispute. It ruined my credit and made it impossible for me to get a credit card, buy a car or a house. 

I wish this had n't snowballed into what it is now but I spent so much time dealing with so little impact that I essentially gave up on it. I have now read up on it, found this website, am aware of my rights and realize I do n't have to fight this alone with a large corporation. 

I want to these charges to be removed and my credit to be restored so that I can live my life.

Issue: Problems when you are unable to pay — 
Company: Zenith Financial Network Inc (LA)

I applied for an installment loan through XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) close to a year ago and faultered on making regular payments due to medical and family emergencies. XXXX gratiously worked with me but the emergencies persisted and they sent my account for collections to ZFN & Associates, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, FL, XXXX, ( XXXX ) XXXX. While the representative assigned to my account was very accommodating and understanding her knowledge of recommended avenues to pay were lacking GREATLY! I was sent on a goose chase to find a magical debit card sold at XXXX where I could load more than {$500.00} at a time. My payment was to exceed that amount and to be taken out the next business day. She could not get her mind wrapped around the fact that I could have gotten ANY reloadable card where I could load {$500.00}, then the rest at same register back-to-back. I thought well maybe they ca n't take more than {$500.00} off at a time or something weird, along those lines. Hence, my having to take time off of work, getting chewed out by my boss, burning up the LAST of my gas for the month ( I only get paid once/month ) all to try and find this mythical card that no one at my XXXX has ever heard of ... REALLY??? THEN to top it all off, once I finally informed the lady of my woes she was willing to wait until I got paid for me to get the card. SERIOUSLY!!! THEN I got not 1, not XXXX, not 3, but 4 calls, IN ONE HOUR!!!, from another male agent and a manager at this agency to ask why I had not secured my arrangement with a debit card. Mind you, they had my screen up right before them as they were talking to me having full knowledge of the arrangement I had made with the other agent, AND I HAVE a debit card in my possession, an XXXX Serve Card ; but they do n't take that one! I do not deny the debt I owe with CC but there is NO WAY ZFN & Associates should be this ignorant of how to handle business and people.
