Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NV)

I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: Auto Trakk, LLC (MI)

I made payment arrangements with AutoTrakk and have been paying as agreed. They do not update or report it accurately to the credit bureaus at all unless I dispute it and even after it has been disputed they still refuse to properly update the information. It is listed on my credit report as {$1300.00} owed when I in fact only still owe {$650.00}. This has been listed on my credit report since 2008 and the statute of limitation has passed on this account. Autotrakk nor the credit bureaus has a date listed for when they plan on removing it from my credit report. It is very harmful to my credit which I am trying to repair and would really appreciate it if they would remove it from my report. I am fully aware that due to the fact that I had medical complications my payments were delayed but for almost a year I have made consistent payments via my social security XXXX to peacefully resolve this issue.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (TX)

I received notifications from XXXX, Equifax and XXXX regarding Collections, XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX were added to my account that I have no knowledge of and never received any Debt Collection Notice or correspondence from said debt collector. I asked that the collections be removed since by law the Debt Collectors did not notify me of any debts and did not give me the opportunity to request a Debt Validation Letter to dispute the debts. 
The FDCPA requires collection agencies to give consumers specific information in its first communication, which is generally called a " debt validation notice, '' including : the amount of the debt, the name of the creditor to whom the debt is currently owed a statement that unless the consumer, within 30 days after receipt of the notice, disputes the validity of the debt, or any portion thereof, a statement that if the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the 30-day period that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, the debt collector will obtain verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment against the consumer and a copy of such verification or judgment will be mailed to the consumer by the debt collector, and a statement that, upon the consumer 's written request within the 30-day period, the debt collector will provide the consumer with the name and address of the original creditor, if different from the current creditor. ( 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( a ) ). 
If the initial communication doesn't contain this information, by law, the agency has five days from the initial contact to provide it to the consumer. ( 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( a ) ). ( The " initial communication '' is the first time a debt collector conveys info, directly or indirectly, about a debt to a consumer. But it doesn't include legal pleadings, including bankruptcy proof of claims, limited content messages, and certain legally required notices. ) I never received a Debit Validation Notice from any of this collection companies which is a violation of the FDCPA. 

Also, XXXX is no longer allowed to service federal student loans, yet the lender remains on my credit report and should be removed. 

XXXX is reporting XXXX Funding as a debt collector, I am in litigation with XXXX funding and have requested that this collection be removed since I have legal representation fighting for me and the validity of this debt. Every bureau has removed XXXX funding except XXXX.

Their failure to provide these documents indicates that they can not and did not verify any of the disputed accounts as claimed. Furthermore, their failure to delete the disputed accounts that they can not verify after three written requests demonstrates a willful disregard of Federal Law.

I reached out to the credit bearus on XX/XX/2023 with a letter that i reviewed my report and there was incorrect information and items on my report. I am trying to purchase a home and these items are causing me alot of stress because it is stopping my family from purchasing a new home. 
I started looking into the consumer laws and i found that there is alot of laws the credit bureaus are breaking but at this time the biggest one the consumer law that states the credit bureaus have 30 days to investigate and respond to me as we provide a updated credit report with the results. I have not heard anything back and this is very frustrating and concerning to me. I have attatched the first letter i sent out as well as the second letter i sent out with this concern with this matter. Please make sure this matter is resolved ASAP it has already been 49 days since my letter was sent out. I do not want to and by law do not have to wait any longer. .Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC 1681i ( 5 ) ( A ), you had 30 days from receipt of my letter to respond to my request for re-verification of the erroneous items. I have not received a reply from you within these 30 days. Therefore, it must be that the information on my report was either inaccurate or could not be re-verified. In either case, according to the provisions of 15 USC section 1681i ( a ), the item ( s ) must be DELETED IMMEDIATELY attatched is also my proof of id and proof of address so you are aware and able to verify who i am. Please resolve this matter asap or i will be taking this matter further. Thank you for your time
