lets get straight to it. Im reaching out because there are two accounts on my credit report from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Accounts XXXX and XXXX ). Let me be clear I have no contract or agreement with them that has my signature. None. Nada. So, I need these debts to be addressed and removed ASAP. 

Validation of Debt under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) : Under 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( b ), I have the right to get proof of these debts. That means XXXX XXXX XXXX needs to show me some real evidence that I owe them anything something with my signature. They sent some papers, but guess what? No signature from me. So heres what I need : A copy of any contract or agreement with my signature that shows I have a deal with XXXX XXXX XXXX for both accounts XXXX and XXXX. 
Permissible Purpose under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : Lets talk about 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( a ) ( 3 ). This says a credit reporting agency can only use my report for specific reasons. If XXXX XXXX XXXX cant show I owe them, theyve got no business putting this on my credit report. Its got to be deleted.

Therefore, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report. It is crucial to clarify that this request is not due to any oversight or error on my part. Rather, it stems from the fact that I did not expressly permit these transactions to be included in my report.

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.

Product: Vehicle loan or lease — Loan
Issue: Managing the loan or lease — Problem with additional products or services purchased with the loan
Company: World Omni Financial Corp. (FL)

Toyota of XXXX fraudulently sold me a vehicle warranty contract that claimed to have insured the EV battery on my used vehicle. 

Towards the end of my purchase, the finance manager very AGGRESSIVELY pushed a warranty that he claimed would cover my EV battery in the event of its failure, and was pretty much the whole pitch of his sale ; since he kept pressuring me to do so and because the vehicle was in fact an older XXXX model, I caved in and purchased it, including it in the financing of the total loan. 

Some time shortly thereafter, my used cars EV battery fails. Fine. I call up the name shown on my Toyota contract to get a repair arranged. The name of the company was XXXX. The service rep very kindly explained that EV batteries are in fact covered, but there was a small issue-I was not shown to have a service contract with them. I explain that has to be some kind of mistake as I recall insuring my vehicle, and Im staring at their name on my contract. 

So I call up Toyota of XXXX and they explain that my cars warranty is not under XXXX, it is under some OTHER insurance, which was shown on some other document he quickly had me sign, and in fact does NOT cover EV repair/replacement. 

Even though our Toyota contract clearly shows XXXX, and the purchase price of over {$2000.00} I paid next to it on the document, thats too bad because thats not actually what I have. At this point I am annoyed and explain that this is illegal and clearly a compliance issue on the part of whoever drafted this legal document, to which the rep quickly panics and says he has nothing to do with it and he will have the finance manager call me back. 


This is ironic to me as XXXX has already been reprimanded for the exact same thing ( relating to warranty service contracts ) and FINED BY THE CFPB BEFORE. So they either know and they dont care, or they can not be bothered to pay the extra money for compliance and regulation to avoid these issues. 

This has been greatly XXXX as I am now completely alone in having to pay for the repair/replacement of this EV battery, while also paying a {$2000.00} plus warranty service financed in a subprime loan that does not even cover the very thing XXXX claimed I should buy it for. 

This is fraud and I hope the CFPB involves themselves accordingly, they are my last hope in rectifying this.

LAst week, I was contacted by the debt collector virtuoso sourcing RE : a debt with XXXX XXXX in an amount of approximately {$54.00}. this debt was tied to a gas bill. The gas bill was paid directly with XXXX XXXX Upon interrogation, I informed the debt collector that the debt was paid and it was best they communicate with the company for further confirmation. The debt collector wanted to extract more information from me, upon which I informed them I would not be updating or confirming any information and revoked any further phone contact. I have received calls on XX/XX/XXXX ( which I didn't answer ) and XX/XX/XXXX. Upon speaking to the representative, I informed them that I previously revoked permission to communicate with me via phone. The representative told me that I did not revoke permission and continued to interrogate me for new information and payment. I informed the representative that payment has been made to the company and any further communication should be with them, as I revoked permission to call me. The representative continued to make me pay her or prove that I didn't owe. I escalated the call to a supervisor who piggybacked these sentiments initially. I then informed her she was actively commiting a CFPB violation to which she apologized, said I would be added to the do not call list, yet still insisted I make a payment.
