Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (FL)

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act this creditor has violated my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). As a consumer, I believe that your organization has violated my rights as stipulated in the FCRA, specifically under 15 USC 1681 Section 604 ( a ) Section 2 and 15 USC 166b.

15 USC 1681 Section 604 ( a ) Section 2 of the FCRA outlines the permissible purposes for obtaining a consumer report, restricting access to an individual 's credit report to those with a legitimate and lawful reason. This provision is in place to ensure that sensitive credit information is only accessible to entities with a valid need, such as creditors, employers, insurers, and landlords. Any unauthorized access or use of my credit report may be deemed a violation of this provision.

15 USC 166b is a significant part of the FCRA and sets out requirements for obtaining and using consumer reports for employment purposes. This section aims to protect the rights of consumers, particularly when it comes to their employment opportunities. It obligates employers to adhere to specific guidelines when requesting and using consumer reports for employment screening purposes. Violations of these guidelines can result in a breach of a consumer 's rights. 

I believe that your organization has infringed upon these provisions of the FCRA by treating a payment as late. 

I kindly request that you investigate this matter thoroughly, rectify any errors, and take the necessary corrective actions to ensure compliance with the FCRA. It is vital to protect consumer rights and maintain the integrity of the credit reporting system. 

Please provide a written response within 30 days of receiving this letter, explaining the steps you have taken to address this issue and any remedies or corrective actions you plan to undertake. Additionally, I request that you furnish me with any documentation or information related to this matter. 

Failure to address this issue within the stipulated timeframe may compel me to take legal action to protect my rights under the FCRA. I hope it does not come to that, and I trust that we can resolve this matter amicably and in accordance with the law. 

I look forward to your prompt response and a satisfactory resolution to this issue.

Company: Resurgent Capital Services L.P. (UT)

On XX/XX/2023, I viewed my XXXX, XXXX and XXXX consumer report and located a negative credit report from LVNV FUNDING LLC XXXX XXXX RESURGENT CAPITAL SERVICES L.P. On XX/XX/2023, I sent a notice of dispute, debt validation and cease and desist to the debt collector to communicated with me thru mail only. On XX/XX/2023, RESURGENT CAPITAL SERVICES L.P. sent me an alleged statement to validate the alleged debt. Unfortunately, a statement is not validation or verification of the alleged debt. In a communication dated XX/XX/2023, they sent me what seems to be a debt validation letter which seems deceptive to me as the debt collector has all ready taken adverse action against me.

The refund had not been received. Called back on XXXX/XXXX/2017 and spoke with lender and insurance tracking department. Both agreed refund had not been credited to account. Bank issued a maintenance request on XXXX/XXXX/2017 to credit the account for the refund. As of today XX/XX/2017 the refund has still not been issued. Customer service at the bank tells me to call insurance tracking which is a third party and insurance tracking tells me they have done their part and to call customer service. Just today I have held for over 2 hours being told it 's everybody else 's fault and no one will give me an answer. I have requested to speak with supervisor and get put on hold and no one will answer. I have requested the name and telephone number for a supervisor and get put on hold and no one ever gives me any information. I am getting the run around and I am tired of it. This has been going on for over a month and I want a resolution.

While checking my consumer reports I noticed an account that has been charged off/never late. This account is being reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX This account is from an auto lease that was never late and surrendered to the dealership at the end of my lease in GOOD STANDING.

I spoke with an agent from Southeast Toyota Finance and was told, I only owed for the extra car key that was not surrendered due to it being lost. I paid {$400.00} for that item. If this account is being reported as charge off/never late. How is there a past due balance when the lease was paid in full? I made every payment on time throughout the duration of my lease. There is no contact info for this creditor therefore making it difficult for me as a consumer to contact them.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (MD)

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) is all about making sure credit reporting is fair and accurate. When there are violations under the FCRA, it messes up the banking system, which relies on accurate credit reports. Unfair credit reporting can also shake people 's trust in the system. So, if any of my accounts get reported without my permission, that's basically identity theft, and it's a breach of my privacy since I should have control over what's listed. Luckily, thereare laws like 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2 that protect me.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for accounts listed without my expressed written consent. These accounts are not related to any transactions made by me, the consumer.

Even though XXXX XXXX  claimed that they do not have any application or account under my SSN, Equifax insisted that after investigation they believe it is legitimate inquiry.

Inaccurate information I sent proof bank statements of date payments were made and they said they validated or verified that it was true no I sent actual proof of my bank statement, but they didn't send me anything of the process that they did to prove that it was verified so I'm requesting them to remove those late payments from my credit report.
