Company: Nationwide Recovery Systems, Ltd (TX)

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to seek your assistance regarding a debt reported in my name by XXXX XXXX. The account lists me as the responsible party for medical debt incurred by my ex-husband, with a date of service in XXXX, despite our divorce in XXXX. 

I have contacted the collections department at XXXX to dispute this debt and requested its removal from my credit report. However, I was informed that the only resolution they would consider is for me to pay the debt, which I believe is unjust given my lack of legal obligation. 

They asserted that they do not make mistakes and insisted that I am responsible. I am concerned about how they obtained my information, as I should not be listed as a contact on his account. 

I would greatly appreciate your guidance on how to address this issue effectively and ensure my credit report accurately reflects my obligations. 

Thank you for your assistance.

I paid a XXXX bill on XX/XX/year> on line. They didn't show that payment untill XX/XX/year> I came home from a family reunion at the end of XX/XX/year> and got a notice that {$850.00} was going to be paid on XX/XX/year>. I didn't know what was going on, I thought it was a scam so I requested XXXXXXXX XXXX to not pay it. They stopped payment on it. I then notified them that the {$850.00} was supposed to be paid in XXXX. They said no it was XXXX and I made no XXXX payment. I spent hours and XXXXXXXX XXXX roaming fee to get this sorted. I then made a {$1000.00} payment on XX/XX/year> to cover the {$850.00}, that extra {$150.00} was for the XXXX payment, then paid {$200.00} payment on XX/XX/year> for my XXXX payment, all of these payments were way more than the monthly payment required. I presumed all was good. I'm still closed out, their on line page says suspended account. I have to do a phone payment right now which I hve to pay a roaming fee on. I sent a letter to them on XX/XX/year> registered, so they had to sign for it. Still no reply and my account is still suspended but I can use the card just not pay on line.

on XX/XX/XXXX I spoke with XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX and agreed to a credit card reduction of XXXX credit card accounts totaling over {$14000.00}. He informed me that I will be paying {$250.00} per month for this program and not to pay anything to the credit card companies that they will negotiate a settlement. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a welcome program from DMB Financial from XXXX XXXX introducing himself as my Client Service Supervisor again telling me not to pay any creditors and inform them that it was turned over to DMB. I have the {$250.00} taken out of my bank account on a auto debit so it is always paid as directed. On XX/XX/XXXX I had to send XXXX XXXX a signed authorization document sent it off no further communication. I kept getting phone calls and emails from my creditors for past due notices. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a email from XXXX XXXX informing me that she is my new Customer Service Representative that XXXX XXXX is no longer with the company. She notified me on XX/XX/XXXX that they reached a settlement offer with XXXX XXXX of {$520.00} I approved. She has since notified me of a settlement with XXXX credit I approved but it was not a settlement it was a payment program and I got a statement from XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX stating payment due, I left XXXX XXXX a voice mail and an email. I spoke with XXXX and she told me that it was not a current statement that payment has been made. I asked her about the program that it is going on over 7 months and I was informed that it it would be 4 to 5 months to be paid off she told me that who ever told me that was lying that this thats time for me to get money into my bank to pay off the creditors. I have since been sending statements to XXXX XXXX and basically been getting the brush off. I have been putting comments in the DMB Portal so that everyone at DMB may read and her comment i that she has been reaching out to me. All I get when I ask what is going on she tells me that she will check with her payoff dept. or supervisor and get back to me. She never does. Now my credit score is so XXXX XXXX for nonpayment to my creditors that I can not get a loan to pay these people off and get back where I was before I started with them. This is effecting my insurance premiums and my ability to get a job. Business 's look at me as a XXXX XXXX

It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA you are required by law to remove & block any items which are found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please block/remove these files.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (AZ)

My account with XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with 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 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! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports
