Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: PORTFOLIO RECOVERY ASSOCIATES INC (LA)

upon checking my credit report on XX/XX/2018, I found that I had an open collections account for an unpaid debt for a XXXX XXXX Credit card. I decided to give the Collection agency provided a call in order to settle the debt. My talk with the customer service rep was pretty simple. I had agreed to pay a lesser amount of the debt owed in order to get the derogatory remark removed from my account. The debt owed was {$400.00}, we agreed on the amount of {$260.00} I believe. After paying the amount agreed upon, I received a letter in the mail confirming that the account was paid off, but I did not receive documentation that the derogatory accounts would be removed from my credit report. I gave Portfolio recovery a call inquiring about the letter and asking if the debt would be deleted. I was informed that, that would be an issue that I would have to take up with the reporting credit bureaus and that it was out of their hands. I decided to send letters to all three bureaus and also Portfolio recovery. Portfolio recovery replied via mail explaining that they could not do anything to help the situation. I have yet to receive a reply from the three bureaus.

Dear CFPB, I am reaching out to address a serious concern of identity theft related to an account opened under my name with XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2017.
