I have been sending dispute letters to the Credit Bureaus appealing to them to conduct a proper investigation of the following accounts : XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00}, and XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} ; for I noticed that these accounts are reporting erroneous information on my Credit File.

I am requesting that the Credit Bureaus correct these accounts and update from any misleading information that these kept on reporting.

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.

Company: ProCollect, Inc. (SC)

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email from a representative of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) that they were unable to terminate my son 's ( XXXX XXXX  ) lease ( I was the guarantor ) despite being told otherwise by a representative of XXXX XXXXXXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. He never took possession of a unit or room. I responded on XX/XX/XXXX with my dispute and documentation by email, the response I received was inaccurate. I sent an extensive email on XX/XX/XXXX detailing my perspective on the course of events, disputing the claimed debt, but never received a reply. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received an emailed statement that included a " move out fee '' and contained the statement : " If you have any questions regarding your account, please email XXXX. '' I emailed that address as instructed above on XX/XX/XXXX disputing the debt, but the emailed reply I received was that my son ( XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and I ( his guarantor ) had already been sent to collections. I was not allowed the opportunity to dispute the debt, or even to pay the bill I had received, since our account had already been sent to collections. 

Ultimately, I would like XXXX XXXX to change their misleading practices. They pressure XXXX XXXX to sign a lease right away by promising a sign on bonus that will expire if not taken advantage of ASAP. Then they have a guarantor sign a brief guarantor statement, taking financial responsibility. After this is when the student gets a copy of the XXXX page lease, which the guarantor never receives. The lease is unacceptable ( it states that another person, regardless of their identity or criminal background and be placed in a bedroom with the leasee. ). Once the guarantor has an opportunity to review the XXXX page lease, and if the guarantor then determines that the terms are unacceptable, the guarantor is told that it is too late to terminate the lease since the leasee ( XXXX XXXX ) has signed it and the guarantor has previously signed a generic XXXX page guarantor agreement that contained none of the specifics of the lease.

Hi, I hope this complaint finds you well because I am trying to use my VA loan to purchase a home, and I am not doing well I am stressed out due to many hard inquiries and negative accounts from different finance/personal, automotive companies and many more companies that are not mine on my credit report. I AM VERYFYING I DO NOT KNOW WHERE THEY CAME FROM so there is no need to ask for any validation. RE : You violated the United States Code Law 15 U.S Code 1681 a ( 4 ) Consumer Right to privacy. You are reporting fraudulent accounts that aren't mine, which is an infringement of my privacy. Congress said I have the right to decide what I deem private. I deem my hard inquires and negative accounts to be private and I DO NOT WANT THIS INFORMATION SHARED ON MY CREDIT REPORT. FDCPA 807 misleading false reporting THE INFORMATION YOU ARE REPORTING WOULD LEAD A FUTURE CREDITOR TO BELIEVE I APPLIED FOR ALL OF THESE ACCOUNTS & INQUIRIES which may lessen my chances of being approved for a home loan when it wasn't me. Reporting these false things is very misleading. You are in violation because you di nit witness me sign for these inquiries or accounts on my credit report.
