Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC. (NV)

I am writing to express my extreme frustration and anger regarding the grossly inaccurate information that continues to plague my credit report. Despite numerous attempts to rectify these inaccuracies with XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, I have been met with nothing but incompetence and indifference. This situation has persisted for far too long and is a blatant violation of my rights under Section 605B of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Section 605B clearly mandates that consumer reporting agencies must either correct or delete inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable information within 30 days. However, despite my repeated disputes and the clear evidence I have provided, these credit reporting agencies have failed to comply with the law. Their inaction is not only illegal but also detrimental to my financial well-being and my ability to exercise my American right to access credit. 

The inaccuracies on my credit report have had a severe negative impact on my life, including but not limited to : Denied Credit Applications : I have been denied credit opportunities that I rightfully deserve, affecting my ability to secure loans, mortgages, and other financial products. 

Higher Interest Rates : The inaccuracies have led to higher interest rates on the limited credit I have been able to obtain, costing me hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars. 

XXXX XXXX : The ongoing struggle to correct these inaccuracies has caused significant XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

I have reached out to XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX multiple times, providing detailed documentation and evidence to support my claims. Each time, I have been met with inadequate responses or outright neglect. Their failure to take appropriate action is unacceptable and in direct violation of federal law. 

I demand immediate intervention from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to hold these credit reporting agencies accountable for their illegal actions. Specifically, I request : An immediate and thorough investigation into the handling of my disputes by XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. 

Prompt correction or removal of the inaccurate information from my credit report as required by Section 605B of the FCRA. 

Appropriate penalties and sanctions against these agencies for their failure to comply with federal regulations. 

Assurance that these violations will not continue to affect other consumers who rely on the accuracy of their credit reports. 

I trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will take swift and decisive action to address this matter and protect the rights of consumers like myself. I eagerly await your response and the resolution of this ongoing issue.

I filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party. They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.

The items listed below are reported on my personal credit file and were found in my reports with 3 credit reporting agencies. These items were opened fraudulently. Ive informed all parties of the issue & provided the necessary documentation to support my claim. The credit reporting agency ( CRA ) & data furnisher ( DF ) are not complying with federal law in regard to identity theft. Additionally, the credit reporting agency & data furnisher have not provided me with any evidence of an open contract, signed contract, or any valid proof this was opened, authorized, or created by me. Since this is a strict violation of FCRA laws I need the items removed from my file.

My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 

I demand the late payment reported in months that are reported late to be removed. 

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 


XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!
