I received a collection letter from Midland Credit Management in late XX/XX/XXXX. They represent " Shop Your Way '' whose creditor owed them the amount of {$54.00} for a pair of shoes which was bought on credit using XXXX credit card. When I asked for the copy of the bill, it showed the address in XXXX, Nevada, where I used to live when I was married to my second husband who passed away in XXXX. Prior to his death, my husband and I were divorced in XXXX, so I moved out and returned to my home here in California. I have never bought anything on credit from the company " Shop Your Way '' and I do not have any credit card with XXXX. 
I wrote to Midland Credit Card XXXX at the address XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX and disputed the charge made to my name. Despite the facts that I had told them, plus the copies of my excellent credit report from the reporting agency, they did not stop sending threatening collection letters which bothered me so much. I reported them to the police station in our city, but I was told that I did not commit a crime and should just ignore or report them to FTC. So this is what I had done. Now I am reporting this again to you for attention and resolution. Thank you.

My account with the XXXX and i was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with this company and all payments were placed on XXXX. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported in MONTHS REPORTING LATE to be removed They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 

This company never sent The periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports.

I am writing to bring to your attention a concerning issue regarding the reporting of a debt collection to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) by TransUnion. As we discussed previously, the debt in question was incurred when I was a minor, and pursuing collections on such a debt raises legal concerns. 

Despite the legal implications, I recently discovered that TransUnion has reported this debt to the CFPB, which has potential ramifications on my credit report and financial standing. I am deeply troubled by this discovery, as it suggests a violation of consumer protection laws and regulations. 

I want to emphasize the seriousness of this matter and the impact it could have on my financial well-being. It is imperative that immediate action is taken to rectify this situation and ensure that any erroneous reporting to the CFPB is corrected. 

I kindly request your assistance in addressing this issue promptly and advocating on my behalf with TransUnion to remove any inaccurate reporting related to this debt from my credit file. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to your prompt response and resolution.

I purchased a large 3d printer using my Paypal account in XXXX of XXXX. I picked it up XX/XX/2024. It was faulty from the very first use. I attempted to keep it working, but it kept failing. Finally, late XXXX I asked for a refund on the item. The seller refused so I was forced to file a Paypal dispute. Paypal asked for a third party to evaluate the printer to determine if it was significantly not as described. I got three third parties to evaluate it and all said it was significantly not as described. Finally, on XX/XX/2024 Paypal told me the seller agreed to give a refund and I should send it back to the address the seller provided. The printer was in the same condition as when I received it. I sent it back, and submitted tracking information. The printer was delivered to the seller on XX/XX/XXXX. The seller then claimed I altered the printer so Paypal denied my claim. Now I am without the money and the faulty product and have to absorb a hefty shipping charge due to Paypal 's terrible action. They lied to me stating the seller agreed to give a refund.

I am utterly disappointed right now, you complete disregard your own stated timeline. In your memo dated, it's explicitly stated that the results of the investigation would be provided to me within 30 days. That deadline has come and gone without a single word from them regarding the status or findings. 

This lack of follow-through and blatant failure to uphold their commitment is unacceptable. You are the bureau and you have ample time to conduct your work and there is no justified reason for this excessive delay in sharing conclusions. In your memo built an expectation that I relied upon, and your inaction represents a breach of that assurance.

In the quiet humdrum of everyday life, a sudden jolt shattered the tranquility : I had become a victim of identity theft. Like a thief in the night, unseen hands had stolen my personal information, plunging me into a bewildering maze of uncertainty. With each fraudulent transaction and unauthorized account, the breach of trust cut deep, leaving me grappling with the unsettling reality of a violated 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 :
