I have received your computer-generated notice informing me that you did not do any action or investigation for the disputes I sent out last time because you think I may have used a third-party credit repair company. Not only do I think this is just your delaying tactics to get an extra 30 days to fulfill my first request, but I also think it's a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Again, please be informed that you are reporting inaccurate and incomplete information on my credit report.

I am deeply frustrated by the response from the credit reporting agencies regarding the investigation of these accounts, which they claim came back as verified. However, this assertion baffles me, as my credit report still contains multiple inaccuracies. 

As a conscientious consumer, I have the right to understand the thoroughness of the verification process conducted by your agency, as stipulated under 15 U.S.C 1681i ( 7 ) Method of Verification. I demand a detailed account of every step taken to ensure the 100 % accuracy of these disputed items. 

It is unacceptable that despite these purported investigations, my credit report continues to reflect discrepancies. I urge your agency to rectify these errors promptly and provide me with the comprehensive documentation I am entitled to under the law.

I am writing to formally dispute a late payment entry that has appeared on my credit report. The report indicates a late payment in my credit report, which I strongly believe is erroneous and not verified. Throughout my financial history with the financial agencies I am doing business with, I have consistently met all payment deadlines without fail. Therefore, the presence of this late payment is undoubtedly a result of a billing error on the part of the creditor. I request a thorough investigation into this matter to verify the accuracy of the reported late payment and urge for its prompt correction. It is imperative that such inaccuracies are rectified swiftly, as they impact my financial standing and credibility. I have contacted the financial agencies in the last more than 30 days to seek clarification but I got no response because this is erroneously reported for they have provided NO PROOF that there was a REAL late payment. Your immediate attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.

I recently reviewed my credit report and discovered an inaccuracy regarding one of my accounts. Specifically, it incorrectly shows a late payment for an account that has always been paid on time. It is crucial under consumer laws and regulations that consumer reporting agencies maintain accurate reporting of all information. 

Attached to this complaint are copies of my credit report dated XX/XX/year>, clearly showing the erroneous late payment notation. I am formally requesting a thorough investigation into this matter and ask that you provide verifiable proof, including records, demonstrating any alleged late payments. 

If you are unable to substantiate these claims with accurate documentation, I demand that this misinformation be corrected promptly to reflect that all payments were made on time. Your swift attention to this issue is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your cooperation.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

I am extremely frustrated and disappointed with the lack of response from your bureau regarding my dispute submitted over 30 days ago. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), you are required to investigate and respond to disputes within this time frame. However, I have received no communication or resolution. 

This delay is a clear violation of my rights under the FCRA and has caused unnecessary stress and inconvenience. I provided all the necessary documentation and details to support my dispute, yet it remains unaddressed. 

I demand an immediate and thorough investigation into my dispute, as well as a detailed explanation of why my dispute was not handled within the legally required timeframe. This inaction is unacceptable and undermines the credibility of the credit reporting process. 

Please address this issue promptly and ensure that the inaccuracies on my credit report are corrected without further delay.

Company: ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC. (CT)

Regards Consumer Financial Protection Bureau In the last 10 months I have been disputing an account with the credit company XXXX and Direct with Midland credit Management who purchased the account after being removed from the credit in 2008 for fraud. In addition, the account appears to belong to XXXX XXXX XXXX and my last name is XXXX XXXX not XXXX, so it is evident the account is completely fraudulent. Since then this collection agency continues to illegally update the account over and over again so that it appears to be a new account from this year. First of all, I did not sign or open an account with Midland, much less with XXXX XXXX. They are breaking the laws by reporting an account from 2008 that was through identity theft and they have to eliminate it out of obligation due to fraud, second because of the last name it doesn't match. And they can't continue harassing me if the debt is NOT mine and I have to pay it if they are not going to send me to court. Those are very strong and misplaced threats. XXXX keeps telling me that the account was verified by Midland Credit, but it does not send me documents of how it was verified. Even though you are sending a police report indicating that you have been a victim of identity theft for several years, I documented the police report, a notarized statement. FTC report and still the account continues to appear in my credit with all my efforts in vain for it to be blocked due to identity theft, and the other 2 agencies XXXX and XXXX have blocked it but XXXX has still refused to do so. 
I am writing to you to investigate and help me with this case as soon as possible. 
The account in reference is from Midland Credit ( XXXX XXXX ) and XXXXXXXX XXXX
