I had an XXXX loan with XXXX , XXXX that was charged off in the amount of {$66.00} because because my payment that was due on XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  went delinquent for over 120 days. XXXX then referred my loan to a third-party collections partner, TrueAccord. 

I initially opened a Credit Reporting Dispute case with XXXX , XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX  EST. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX  I had not received any messages from XXXX, XXXX regarding the case so I sent a message with phone screenshots showing that my account with TrueAccord had been resolved. 

I still received no response from XXXX , XXXX and sent them another message on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX  asking if they were still investigating the issue because it had been 12 days since my last message. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX  XXXX, XXXX finally responded that my payment fell outside the reporting time period covered when they last provided information to the credit reporting agency. 

During that time, on XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted TrueAccord to obtain a Loan Verification Letter that said that I resolved my balance of {$66.00} owed to XXXX , XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. 

So on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX  I sent a response clarifying that my balance had been resolved and sent them TrueAccords Loan Verification letter.
