I then sent XXXX XXXX XXXX and MIDLAND CREDIT MANAGEMENT a debt validation letters via certified mail on XX/XX/2023 with a return receipt.

Proof the amount is within the statute of limitation and has not expired. Proof you are the owner of this account, which will require the contract and terms between them and the original creditor. Proof that they are legally licensed, bonded and insured if applicable to collect this debt in my state. For verification purposes, I will need their business license number. They failed to send my requested documents only thing they sent was a itemized billing statement. I then contacted via phone and ask why wasnt the documents I requested for validation wasnt sent. They said they only have what they mail me is a billing statement they brought from the original creditor and they dont have anything with proof with my signature on it. I feel like they have violated my consumer rights and failed to follow FCRA guidelines and also ignored my request to not contact me and cease and desist all future attempts contacting me.

Student Loan company Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency ( PHEAA ) is servicing my loan. Back in 2015 I moved/mailings got crossed payments didn't get made. Once I was notified I corrected this and have been making regular monthly payments since and it's all documented. Since I missed those payments they put loan in default and will not correct my credit report/credit score even though for the last 4 yrs I've made my timely payments. I'm presently trying to go for a mortgage with XXXX XXXX and they are stopping this from going through due to this issue. I've tried to call PHEAA they will not help me even though they state oh yes you've been in good standing with us for a while now! I've also provided XXXX XXXX the document with all my payments for the last 4yrs and they still will not help out. I would greatly appreciate it if this could be corrected and done so fast. I'm missing out on being able to buy a home " the all American dream '' which I worked all through school so I could get a promotion and make more money for this home.

I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated.
