Subject : Formal Complaint Against XXXX XXXX for Violations of Consumer Rights Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to formally file a complaint against XXXX XXXX for multiple violations of my consumer rights under federal law. Below are the specific issues and corresponding legal references regarding XXXX XXXX ' unlawful actions : XXXX. Failure to Provide Validation Information ( 12 CFR 1006.34 ( b ) ( 5 ) : XXXX XXXX has placed a collection account on my consumer report without providing the necessary validation information as required by law. This failure to provide validation information impedes my ability to verify the legitimacy of the debt and constitutes a clear violation of my consumer rights. 

2. Denial of Dispute Rights ( 12 CFR 1006.34 ( c ) ( 4 ) ( i ) I have not been given the opportunity to dispute the account, as mandated by 12 CFR 1006.34 ( c ) ( 4 ) ( i ). This lack of opportunity to dispute the account violates my right to challenge and verify any alleged debt.

3. False, Misleading, and Deceptive Practice : XXXX XXXX has employed false, misleading, and deceptive means in their collection practices. They have misrepresented the status and validity of the alleged debt on my consumer report, which constitutes a violation of my consumer rights. 

4. Unauthorized Furnishing of Account Information ( 12 CFR 1006.34 ( d ) and 15 USC 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 7 ) ( A ) : BULL CITY has no authority to furnish any account information to consumer reporting agencies without providing all required disclosures by law. Their actions are in direct violation of 12 CFR 1006.34 ( d ) and 15 USC 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 7 ) ( A ). 

Given these violations, I am formally disputing any and all debts claimed by XXXX XXXX. Additionally, I am exercising my right to revoke all communication permissions, including email, text, and phone calls. 

In my previous correspondence with XXXX XXXX, I have requested the following without receiving any satisfactory response : 1. Debt validation. 
2. The purchase agreement between XXXX XXXX and the original creditor.

3. Proof that XXXX XXXX is licensed and bonded. 

I respectfully request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau take immediate action to investigate these violations and ensure that XXXX XXXX complies with all applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, I request proof of mail receipt for my records. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. Please contact me if you require any additional information. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Public record information inaccurate
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (RI)

I am writing to file a formal complaint against Experian for inaccurate reporting of a bankruptcy on my credit report, reference number XXXX. This reporting is incorrect as confirmed by the absence of any bankruptcy filings on my XXXX and XXXX credit reports. The discrepancy suggests that Experian 's reporting is inaccurate, which misrepresents my financial history and negatively impacts my creditworthiness. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq., particularly sections 1681e ( b ) and 1681i, credit reporting agencies are required to follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. Furthermore, consumers have the right to dispute incomplete or inaccurate information, and the credit reporting agencies must correct or delete inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable information within 30 days of dispute. 

Given these provisions, Experian 's failure to report accurately, in stark contrast to the reports from XXXX and XXXX, constitutes a clear violation of the FCRA. This erroneous entry has unjustly affected my credit score and may have broader financial implications for me. 

Therefore, I request the CFPB to take appropriate action to ensure that Experian corrects this inaccuracy promptly. I am also seeking guidance on how to ensure that my credit report reflects only accurate and verified information, as mandated by federal law. 

Attached are copies of my credit reports from XXXX and XXXX for your reference, highlighting the absence of the bankruptcy record, in contrast to the Experian report.

The conspicuous lack of concrete evidence substantiating its reliability, coupled with the circulation of unverified information, constitutes a flagrant violation of the statutory provisions outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ).
