This is not a duplicate nor is this complaint filed by a third party. I am filing this complaint myself. Please see this complaint is processed to the letter of the law. I've contacted the account listed below & they told me I've never missed a payment, yet Transunion refuses to fix the account from being listed late. They told me they are not required to allow me to dispute this inaccurate information any longer. I constantly have to do Transunion 's job for them to shield my credit & prove my identity. I've sent documentation of the concerned months in question prior and they STILL refused to correct this damaging negatives from my profile.

After receiving a copy of my report, I saw these UNVERIFIABLE items on my personal profile, I noticed that there was items on my credit report which are misleading to me.

I'm hoping that the items will remove in my credit file as soon as possible.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: Midwest Fidelity Services, LLC (CA)

I purchased a XXXX Spa treatment plan from XXXX ( Parent Company : XXXX XXXX XXXX ) on XX/XX/XXXX ( according to the debt collector Midwest Fidelity ). I was told XXXX does not handle their financial collections in-house but through XXXX  XXXX  ( at the time ) and they were going to set me up on a payment plan, but I was told that I could pay it off in full or in larger sums if I wanted to. I had my first appointment on XX/XX/XXXX and decided I wanted to pay the treatments off in full so I didn't have to worry about making payments so I called Ally Lending on XX/XX/XXXX and made the full payment over the phone for {$4700.00}. I have documentation in my bank statements of this payment to this company. I continued to receive mail from this lending service, saying that I still owed the full amount and was being charged interest. So I called XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX telling them about the mail and after providing documentation, I assumed the matter was resolved. I continued to receive the same debt mail from this lending company for months after, but I didn't think anything of it and thought they were sending it to me by accident because I 1. had already paid, and 2. I called them to resolve the issue and they said it was resolved. Now it is XX/XX/XXXX and I am receiving calls from Midwest Fidelity debt collectors saying that I still owe the {$4700.00} and they have no documentation of me ever paying. So now I am trying to resolve this all over again by giving them a copy of my bank statement showing that I paid the full amount almost 2 years ago. I just checked my credit score and this specific issue has dropped my score well over XXXX points ( I previously had an almost perfect score ). This has been an absolute nightmare and not only am I having to deal with the tedious task of getting this resolved. I also have to prove that I've been falsely reported for debt with creditors so I can attempt to fix my credit score. It's not fair for someone who has done the right thing, paid all the bills on time, etc to have to experience detrimental damage to their credit score ; which is one of the hardest things to resolve and necessary to be eligible for pretty much anything.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 602 ( a ), Congress mandates that consumer reporting agencies ( such as XXXX and XXXX ) fulfill their roles with " fairness, impartiality, and respect for the consumer 's right to privacy. '' As a consumer, I have a legal right to ensure my private information remains confidential. In support of this, 15 U.S.C. 6801 specifies that every financial institution is obligated to uphold the security and confidentiality of its clients ' nonpublic personal information.

Per 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ), consumer reporting agencies may only disclose a consumer report with the written consent of the consumer. Neither XXXX, XXXX, nor any data furnishers have my explicit consent to share my information, whether the consent is written, implied, verbal, or otherwise ; therefore, any previously assumed consent is now formally revoked. Moreover, 15 U.S.C. 6802 ( b ) ( c ) asserts that no financial institution may disclose nonpublic personal information to third parties without providing the consumer a clear option to opt-outa right which I have not been informed of, nor have I been given the opportunity to exercise this option.

Furthermore, under 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ), it is prohibited for any consumer reporting agency to report adverse information older than seven years, except for criminal convictions. Reporting any adverse information that does not meet these criteria, particularly without my authorization, is a violation of federal law. Additionally, 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) ( A ) holds that a person must not furnish information to a consumer reporting agency if they know, or should reasonably know, the information is inaccurate.

Under these protections and regulations, including 12 CFR 1016.7, I am formally exercising my right to opt-out of all reporting services and any further disclosure of my information.

I have submitted several letters to all 3 credit bureaus- XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and Experian disputing this Account with ( XXXX ) - name as reported to my credit report. They keep sending me a letter that this account was verified but have failed to explain WHY, WHO, & WHEN. ( DEBT VALIDATION ) They have failed to present me with proper documents that show their method of verification. They have also failed to show me original documents bearing my signature with this account.

This account also shows a few incorrect information such as the ''date opened '', ''date verified '', '' closed date '', ''account status '', ''dispute status '' and ''date of last activity ''. ONLY ONE BUREAU IS SHOWING A ACTUAL CLOSED DATE FOR THIS ACCOUNT. THIS ACCOUNT NUMBER IS ALSO INCOMPLETELY REPORTED FROM ALL 3 BUREAUS. This account is also in VIOLATION of Metro 2 Compliance because THIS ACCOUNT IS ALSO REPORTING INCORRECTLY & ALOT OF FIELDS ARE BLANK & MISSING INFORMATION. THIS ACCOUNT IS ALSO REPORTING A " LATE-PAYMENT STATUS '', WHICH IS ILLEGAL BECAUSE A CLOSED ACCOUNT IS NOT SUPPOSED TO REPORT LATE PAYMENTS NOR A BALANCE.

In addition, I have been sending dispute letters to these bureaus and they have FAILED to update the ''dispute status '' of this account.

All 3 credit bureaus are reporting DIFFERENT INFORMATION on this SAME account which is ALSO against my consumer rights. According to the FRCA consumer reporting, agencies must correct or delete inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable information. If this INCOMPLETE, UNVERIFIABLE, UNFAIR, and INACCURATE information is not deleted in 30 days I will be visiting my local small claims court to begin the process of a Lawsuit against ALL 3 credit bureaus and XXXX XXXX I expect to receive an updated credit report within the next 30 days showing that this account has been DELETED.

I am writing to you because I started doing my own research online and I seen a couple people saying to reach out to you guys for help. I was a victim many of times of fraud in my life time and I documented it this time on paper. I sent the 3 major credit bureaus some papers stating that these thing on my credit report was fraudulent, but I don't know if they received it or anything. These accounts I have listed are fraudulant and I am just trying to get to the bottom of this situation so I can move on with my old life I have left. I hope these companies don't expect me to pay for someone else 's gain, because I only have money to pay for my bills and medication. I hope this letter finds you well and I also hope that you can help me because this is all fraud and I will attach my fraud report to this also. Thank you for your time and have a good day.

I am distressed that you have included the information below in my credit pro-file and that you have failed to maintain reasonable procedures in your operations to assure maximum possible ac-curacy in the credit reports you publish. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be re-investigated. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( l ) ( A ), you are required by federal law to verify, through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract, any and all accounts that you post on a credit re-port. 
Otherwise anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail or email in a fraudulent account. I demand to see verifiable proof ( i.e. : an original consumer contract with my signature on it ) that you have on file for the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA, unverifiable ac- counts must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, you must remove the account listed below.
