These can be combined On my credit report, you have shown incorrect accounts that should not be there at all. This is not only unjust to me, but it's also concerning, because I've never done or made any of the things you accuse me of. If you don't look into these accounts, I'll take legal action against you.

I've been grappling with correcting errors on my credit report for months now and it is exhausting.

Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC. (NJ)

I am writing to address a matter of serious concern regarding a debt collection attempt made byMidland Credit which I believe has resulted in a violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). 

Today I discovered that Midland Credit reported a debt to one or more credit bureaus without ever notifying me of the debt or providing me with proper instructions on disputing it. This action is a direct violation of the FDCPA, which mandates that debt collectors must provide consumers with certain information before reporting a debt to credit bureaus. 

Specifically, Midland Credit failed to adhere to the following requirements under the FDCPA : Notification of the Debt : Prior to reporting a debt to credit bureaus, debt collectors are required to notify consumers in writing about the debt 's existence. However, I did not receive any such notification from XXXX XXXX XXXX. As a result, I was unaware of the debt until I discovered it on my credit report. 

Instructions on Disputing the Debt : The FDCPA also mandates that consumers be provided with clear instructions on how to dispute the debt if they believe it is inaccurate or incomplete. Unfortunately, Midland Credit did not provide me with any information on how to dispute the debt prior to reporting it to the credit bureaus. 

Timeframe for Disputing the Debt : Even if I had received notification of the debt, Midland Credit failed to inform me of the timeframe within which I could dispute the debt under the FDCPA. As a result, I was deprived of my right to challenge the accuracy of the debt before it negatively impacted my credit report. 

This failure to comply with the FDCPA has had significant adverse effects on my financial well-being and creditworthiness. I have been unfairly penalized due to a debt that I was not properly informed of and had no opportunity to dispute.
