I lodged a complaint against these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. Surprisingly, I haven't received any response or correspondence from the Bureaus, and they have already closed my complaint. Could you please explain why they closed my complaint without resolving the issue? Have they even acknowledged or verified my dispute? I need assurance that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report and validated the accounts. Can you provide details about the methods they used to verify my report? This situation is incredibly frustrating! It has been more than 30 days since I filed the complaint, and I expected these accounts to be updated by now. If they are not updated immediately, I will have no other option but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach.

Company: MOHELA (CA)

While paying my Federal Unsub loan balance using Mohela 's " Payoff Calculator '' I submitted the full calculated payment amount to completely pay off and discharge the loan principal and interest amounts. Upon submitting the payment I was notified that I would receive confirmation by mail that the loan was fully paid off. Not only have I not received that notice but now there is {$0.00} of outstanding principal on my account when I checked after my payment went through. It is only {$0.00} but the idea of keeping the loan active after I was told it was paid off is ridiculous, If I had never checked back I may have never closed that loan that I had paid over {$42000.00} on.

Company: ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC. (FL)

Midland Credit Management has informed me of their intent to collect {$3500.00} for a past debt. I have requested both the contract I previously signed with the company and a comprehensive transaction history, but unfortunately, they have not provided this information. 

Moreover, I am concerned by their consistent reporting of varying amounts for the same account on my credit report. This continuous activity suggests an indefinite presence of the account on my report. 

Today, XX/XX/2023, when I inquired about the fluctuating amounts, Midland Credit Management stated that they were not responsible for these changes. 
Consequently, I can only conclude that this account may be fraudulent, and I am formally requesting its removal from my credit report.
