There are multiple instances of noncompliance with mandated reporting criteria, thus the information in my report isn't accurate and comprehensive! Having said that, I refute your claims and challenge you to show me that you have the authority to publish this inaccurate, misleading information to my credit report. 
15 U.S.C. Section 1681e states that " a consumer reporting agency shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates whenever it prepares a consumer report. '' According to 12 CFR Part 1022 ( Regulation V ) requires furnishers to : Furnish information concerning accounts or other relationships with a consumer that has integrity. 
Furnish information about accounts or other relationships with a consumer that is accurate. 
C - Conduct reasonable investigations of consumer disputes According to CRRG, in order to make a lawful report, you must follow the Metro 2 compliance standards.

Also as stated in the CRRG Any Deviation From These Standards Jeopardizes The Integrity of The Data. This means that any mistakes in reporting claims can make the information less accurate and it affects the accuracy of any federally regulated reports. 
Therefore, I am invoking my rights to challenge these inaccurate and non-compliant items. Neglecting my demand will only prove that you DO NOT care about my rights as a consumer. Its NOT FAIR for you to report information that isnt confirmed to be ethical and meets the standards of certified reporting. Again, I am challenging these claims and asking for proof of the proper reporting standards. 
You are violating my rights! I have listed the concerns about your reporting in this document. It's not complete and does not meet my standards according to law, you must certify all aspects of required FCRA/ Metro 2 compliance which is done truthfully, correctly ( in a timely manner ), completely AND accurately as well - or else I would have to escalate these issues to the CFPB , FTC and my Attorney General.

Inaccurate Credit Reporting ( 15 USC 168152 ) To whom it may concern, 1 I am writing this letter to inform you that i have notified the credit bureaus of misreporting by your company in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. According to which, as the furnisher of the information in question, you have a grave responsibility of maintaining the accuracy of that information. following account ( XXXX XXXX  ) is reporting a balance of ( {$2400.00} ) when it is my understanding an reason to believe that because this debt was charged off by you that is was memorialized with a form 1099C as proof or evidence thereat. And that because of my fact, this debt is cancelled and at least should not reflect the balance that is currently shown of ( {$2400.00} ) on my consumer file. This is canceled debt, the company has filed it on their taxes but they also are reporting it on my credit report as debt, doesnt make sense at all. A charge off is considered ordinary income so how could it be furnishing on my credit report as debt. The IRS states that this company was supposed to send me a 1099c form so I can file the ordinary income. They havent sent me none of that at all so now they are in violation of USC 1681EB, it speaks on maximum accuracy of the consumer report. So this item has to be deleted from my credit report.

Issue: Threatened to contact someone or share information improperly — Talked to a third-party about your debt
Company: Capio Partners, LLC (FL)

I received a call from my mother this morning stating that she had received a call on HER cell phone from a woman asking for me. 

My mother advised me that when she answered her phone from the number XXXX showing a name of XXXX XXXX, she assumed it was a normal call. However, when the woman on the other end asked for me, my mother never provided her a name and asked who was calling. 

The woman on the other end stated her name and then told her she was calling from Capio Partners and told her that the call was an attempt to collect a debt and so on and so forth.

My mother immediately stopped her and advised her that she never told her who she was and that she was releasing personal information on someone else 's account that was not her own which is AGAINST The law! The woman on the other end of the phone said that it is not and she can provide the information. 

My mother then told her that she previously worked for a debt collection company and she knows for a fact that she CAN NOT provide her the mini XXXX and advised that she is calling about a debt if it has not been confirmed that she is not speaking with the debtor. The woman then became combative and would not disconnect the call. My mother then let her know that she will be filing a complaint. 

This creditor violated my personal rights! If that call would have been answered by someone else A STRANGER even, my personal information would be someone else 's knowledge! this agency needs to take accountability for their agents mistake! 

I am well aware of my rights and I want to request that Capio Partners pay me the fine amount due for releasing my personal details. 

Please review and ensure that I am compensated appropriately!
