Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (NY)

Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to not only dispute inaccuracies listed on my credit report but also to question the validity of the reported debt claims. I am concerned that these discrepancies and the uncertain legitimacy of the debt claims could significantly impact my financial reputation and creditworthiness. My credit report lists the original lender as XXXX with Equifax and XXXX but XXXX XXXX with XXXX. 

Discrepancies and Validation Request : Original Lender Name Inconsistency : Issue : Varied reporting of the lender 's name across credit bureaus. 
XXXX Requested : Uniform correction of the lender 's name. 
XXXX XXXX Variability : Issue : Inconsistent reporting of the collection agencys name. 
XXXX Requested : Verification and correction of the agency name. 
Status Descriptions Variability : Issue : Disparate descriptions of the debt status. 
XXXX Requested : Standardization of the status description across all reports. 
Validation of Debt Claim : Concern : The legitimacy of the debt itself is unclear to me, and I do not recall any transaction that could have led to the reported claim. 
XXXX Requested : I formally request that you provide comprehensive documentation validating the debt, including the original contract or agreement I allegedly signed, a detailed account statement showing the derivation of the balance claimed, and proof of your legal right to collect this debt. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( e ) ( b ), I request a thorough investigation into the aforementioned inaccuracies and a detailed validation of the debt within the legally mandated XXXX period. Should these investigations determine that the information is inaccurate or the debt can not be validated, I expect the immediate correction or deletion of this entry from my credit file. 

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to your written response confirming the actions taken on these issues. 

Thank you for your cooperation. 

Sincerely,

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (GA)

As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681 section 602 ( a ) ), it is emphasized that consumer reporting agencies must handle their responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and respect for consumer privacy. XXXX, XXXX, and Experian are such agencies, and I, as the Consumer, have the right to ensure that my private information is not shared, as supported by 15 USC 6801. This law states that each financial institution, including XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX, has a duty to uphold customer privacy and protect their nonpublic personal information. 

According to 15 USC 1681 section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ), a consumer reporting agency can only provide a consumer report with the explicit written instructions of the consumer concerned. None of the mentioned financial institutions or reporting agencies have my consent to furnish this information, verbal, non-verbal, written, implied, or otherwise. All previous forms of consent are hereby revoked. 

Under 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ), a financial institution can not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party without informing the consumer of their right to opt out. However, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX have not informed me of this right. 

Furthermore, 15 USC 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ) prohibits consumer reporting agencies from including adverse information in a consumer report without authorization, especially information that predates the report by more than seven years. This account is adverse and is being reported without my permission, violating the law.

According to 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) ( A ), no one should furnish inaccurate consumer information to a reporting agency. XXXX, XXXX, and Experian are not maintaining reasonable procedures to avoid violations of consumer reporting laws. Additionally, 12 CFR 1016.7 allows consumers to opt out of reporting services at any timeI am exercising this right now.

Experian is showing 8 late accounts. These accounts were discharged under bankruptcy. While they are showing my bankruptcy, they are also showing 8 accounts as late when they have been discharged, therefore, lowering my score. XXXX and XXXX have it correct. This is an incorrect practice. I should be showing my bankruptcy not late accounts. I have already disputed and there was no change ; still showing late and it states it as late payments. Please correct this

Select Servicing Portfolio , Inc., is reporting that as of XX/XX/XXXX, I am 164 days delinquent in mortgage loan acct. # XXXX when I am not. The property was heavily damaged by Hurricane Mara and the prior mortgage servicer, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, gave me two payment moratoriums. The first one was automatic and a second one was extended until XX/XX/XXXX, in letter dated XX/XX/XXXX. The mortgage was then transferred on XX/XX/XXXX to Select Servicing Portfolio , Inc., for further servicing. Select Servicing Portfolio, Inc., then obligated us to repay the amount of payments  accumulated during the moratorium period, even though the house was still under repair and reconstruction. We complied with their demand, and a payment plan was approved for such repayment doubling the amount of the mortgage payment for a period of time. Although I complied entirely by starting my payments on XX/XX/XXXX, and thereafter including doubling the amount of the payment, up to this date Select Servicing Portfolio , Inc., has refused to eliminate the incorrect reporting to the credit agencies that I am 164 delinquent on the mortgage loan. More than 4 letters have been sent to Select Servicing Portfolio , Inc., and today I held a 42 minute telephone conference with their Relationship Manager, but they refused to revoke the incorrect reporting.

Leaving me grappling with the unsettling reality of a violation identity. Yet, in the midst of chaos, a glimmer of resilience emerged, a resolve to reclaim what was rightfully mine and restore the harmony stolen by unseen adversaries these are the following accounts need to be removed.

Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure — 
Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC (CT)

On XX/XX/XXXX I submitted a modification package to Nationstar Mortgage. I was assigned to a single point of contact at Nationstar. On XX/XX/XXXX I was informed that Nationstar had received all the documents except for XXXX items which were the rental receipts for the rental property and the mortgage statement for my primary property. These items were sent to Nationstar on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I was informed by Nationstar that they did not receive these documents and the file had been closed. The items were sent to Nationstar by email to XXXXXXXXXXXX and I received a verification email from them that it was received on that date. 

The documents were immediately sent back in and the case was reopened only to be told a week later that it had been denied because the investor who owns my loan does not do modifications for rental properties. Why did Nationstar Mortgage make me go through all the motions of sending in all my documents, asigned a single point of contact and have numerous conversations with me over that time if they were going to only end up denying the loan modification. 

The property is almost 200 % underwater with it only being worth {$520000.00} and I owe Nationstar over {$800000.00} for the property. The very fact that I still want to continue making payments to them when I will probably not have any equity in the home for years to come shows how committed I am to keeping the property and maintaining the payments. 

I was also told that investor is an anonymous entity that I can not even have the chance to appeal my case to and that is why I am turning to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to investigate my case.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (MD)

I have been engaged in a lengthy endeavor to challenge the presence of incorrect information on my credit report. As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I possess the right to dispute any inaccuracies that exist. In my pursuit, I have sent multiple dispute letters and reached out to the credit bureaus, given the multitude of names and addresses listed that are entirely erroneous. I have never been associated with these names before. I have provided legal documents such as my ID, proof of address, and social security details to establish my identity beyond doubt. Unfortunately, despite my efforts, the credit bureaus persist in misrepresenting this information. This situation poses difficulties when I apply for credit-based services and raises concerns about potential identity fraud. I also keep receiving letters/email responses from the bureaus delaying my disputing efforts simply because I choose to use a credit assistance service. It is my right to choose to dispute the information on my credit report in the manner I choose. They do not need proof of how I choose to dispute. They must simply follow through on their end to address the inaccuracies and correct them as legally obliged.
