Per my agreement, I was to pay {$130.00} on a bi-weekly basis. I successfully paid the first payment of {$130.00} on XXXX XXXX. 

Immediately following payment on XX/XX/XXXX, I was alerted through my account portal no portion of payment was applied to the principal. OPP Loans did not provide me a TIL stating the initial payments would not encumber allocation to principal. I requested that the payment details be updated to reflect the contractual agreement of every payment made would apply a portion to principal. OPP Loans refused. On XXXX XXXX, I entered into a Debt Relief Program with XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX OPP Loans was notified and negotiations and verification of debt commenced. 

On XX/XX/XXXX my owing balance was {$1900.00}. OPP Loans agreed to a settlement of {$1600.00}, new contractual payment terms, and provided all said payments were successful under new agreement my account would be deemed Satisfied. See attached supplementary documents. A payment of {$50.00} was tendered per renegotiated agreement on XX/XX/XXXX.

I have launched complaints against OPP Loans with the CFBP. See attached Full Complaint Details. OPP Loans acknowledged renegotiated contracts and all payments fulfilled however continued to report inaccuracies.

My credit profile should reflect a 30 day -late in XX/XX/XXXX, on-time payments XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, and account closed XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

I have disputed with XXXX, XXXX and XXXX numerous times, each time CRA failed to investigate the attached supporting documentation I provided and subsequently verified as reporting accurate. 

Under 11 U.S.C 524 ( c ), ( f ) Creditors can not collect discharged debts.This order means that no one may make any attempt to collect a discharged debt from the debtors personally. For example, creditors can not sue, garnish wages, assert a deficiency, or otherwise try to collect from the debtors personally on discharged debts. Creditors can not contact the debtors by mail, phone, or otherwise in any attempt to collect the debt personally.

Consumer requests the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, WA State Attorney General and XXXX XXXX XXXX launch a thorough investigation of OPP Loans accounting and credit reporting records. The evidence attached demonstrates a substantial amount of unlawful conduct by OPP Loans.
