Company: FC HoldCo LLC (FL)

We purchased our XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX of XXXX .. shortly after this we were forced to filed bankruptcy in FEDERAL Court . We REAFFIRMED this DEBIT with Flagship at that time. We have since been paying on this loan for approximately 5 years going on the last year 6 of the contract. We recently went online to our account and we were locked out. It said we are currently in a bankruptcy status. We then called customer service and we were not allowed to talk to them ( due to account -after 5 years being put in a bankruptcy status ) so we had to speak with a special bankruptcy division then informed us we are not in bankruptcy and we had to speak with another division which was then bankruptcy recovery division. We then found out they recently changed over their system from XXXX account number to XXXX account numbers. They are telling us that due to this " glitched and or system update '' our account and many others are being put into this status. We have NO access to pay our account, we have no access to see our previous payment or other agreed upon contract terms when we entered into reaffirm this debit. It has been promised over and over by managers ( on a recorded line ) that this would be fixed and still has not. we have emailed flagship as well as by reaching by phone. They also indicated an APOLOGY letter would be coming out to us in the mail, and never received anything.

Capital One has made numerous inquires into my credit since XXXX. Not a single one of those were authorized. I have not been shopping for either an auto loan or a credit card. I am currently in Chapter XXXX bankruptcy and not even allowed to apply for credit. I have filed disputes online with the credit reporting companies as well as mailed something to Capital One requesting removal. I have, to date, received NO PROOF that I agreed to these inquiries. When asked for proof I received a letter that just said " Inquiries are a factual part of your credit ''. I have not, and will not, ever apply with Capital One for anything.

I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice 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: EQUIFAX, INC. (PA)

My account with DEPT OF EDXXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with DEPT OF EDXXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. 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 paymen t reported in 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. 


DEPT OF EDXXXX 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

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 these items.

I am continually being called on the telephone by this agency over an alleged debt. I am requesting validation of this debt. This account has been reporting inaccurately. I wanted to dispute this account because of this and it was affecting my credit report. I am having problems with this unfair treatment. I am sure that I settled this account before because it was not mine. This account was taken care of with the original creditor and promised me to update it out of my report. Therefore, this account is unverifiable. This is an error that you need to look into, so please do your investigation on this and remove or delete this account from my credit report.

My partner and I own a small primary care practice named XXXX XXXX In XX/XX/2022, XXXX of our business checks ( sent for a business office lease payment ) was stolen from the mail. The check was altered, with the payee and amount fraudulently changed, and then electronically deposited into the fraudulent payees account. The original check was made out to XXXX XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$2800.00}. The cashed check was made out to an individual ( unknown to us ) in the amount of {$9200.00}. After the check was deposited, I noticed this large debit of {$9200.00} from our business account and went right away to the local Chase Bank branch. The manager was very helpful and assisted me in filing a claim. The claim documents were faxed directly from the branch, including the claim report and a copy of the original check as well as the altered fraudulent check. I was told that since I reported the incident within 24 hours of the check being deposited, that the amount might be restored to our business account within 24 to 48 hours. Unfortunately, this was wrong information and I was later told that it could take 60 to 90 days. This caused us great distress, as we had to take out a small business loan just to make payroll one week. Our employees received their paychecks 2 days later than expected, causing them distress as well. The fraudulent check had wiped out our reserve funds which we sometimes need to make payroll. After filing the claim with Chase, I also attempted to enlist the help of XXXX XXXX. Since I am not a customer there, however, they would not speak with me regarding the fraudulent check, ( even though it was partially their error in not verifying the check information prior to deducting the funds from our account ). I also filed a report with the XXXX XXXX XXXX. The XXXX was extremely helpful in tracking down the details of the fraudulent check and even found the person responsible. I submitted the officers very detailed report to Chase Bank in XX/XX/2022. I have made repeated follow up phone calls to Chase asking when the funds will be restored to our account. Each time, I am told that they are waiting for information from XXXX XXXX and that stolen check cases tend to take a long time to resolve because the bank has to conduct our own investigation. I can not believe that it has been almost 8 months and the {$9200.00} stolen from our account has not been returned. No one from Chase or XXXX XXXX has reached out to us to update us on the matter. Any time I want information, I have to call them, and each time I call, I am told the same thing that they are waiting on more information. I dont understand how this can happen as they have a copy of the police report clearly showing that this was a fraudulent check and indicating exactly who did it and where and how. Can you please help resolve this?
