I attempted to make several purchases with a specific merchant using my XXXX XXXX debit card from MoneyLion checking account. The charges were all declined on the merchants end at the time they were attempted. MoneyLion was declined the attempts while also debiting my account. The XXXX attempted charges were all pending on my account. I called MoneyLion and explained the situation and they assured me the charges would not process and would fall off within 24 hours. I asked them to flag the transactions and notify me immediately if they processed and cleared. 
I didnt receive a notification after the conversation and figured the charges fell back to my checking account. Upon looking at my monthly statement I realized that all of the charges did indeed process and the funds totaling {$960.00} debited from my account.

On XX/XX/2023, I sent 2 letters to XXXX XXXX about an alleged debt- ( see uploaded documents ) requesting a validation of the alleged debt. You see, I checked my credit report and found some damaging information on my credit caused by this company. I quickly wrote letters to the CEO, XXXX XXXX. Now, I checked my credit report, yesterday and found that the alleged debt was validated. How come I only found out about it by looking at my credit report? As you can see, I want the debt validated using your consumer laws. Nothing else will do. Since XXXX XXXX can not prove to me the alleged debt, I want it removed from the credit report. I also never gave them written permission to put this damaging information on my credit report, and they have therefore committed aggravated identity theft under 15 USC 1681 b ( 2 ). Since they cant validate the debt to me, I think they should validate the debt to you. All I know is I am suffering mentally and emotionally and the sad part about it, I cant afford to pay for mental health services. Thanks you for your time and attention to this matter.

I asked Nationstar ( now Mr. Cooper ) to deposit the funds directly into the checking account used to pay the mortgages for both loans. This request was denied.

I was then told to resend the power of attorney document showing I was authorized to conduct business for the two loans. A company representative sent me an email on XX/XX/XXXX stating the information was received and the original checks would have stop payment and new checks would be issued in my name in 3 to 5 business days. I called today XX/XX/XXXX to check on the status and was told by a different representative she didn't see where the power of attorney was received and we could start the process all over again to get new checks. Please note that I sent this power of attorney document to this mortgage lender 1 to 2 years ago to gain access to the loans for conducting business. Also note the first loan was paid in full in XX/XX/XXXX. I am still waiting to close out the escrow account.

Ive noticed that several deviations from mandatory reporting standards therefore the data in my report can not be accurate and complete! With that said, I deny your allegations and I challenge you to provide proof that you have the right to report this incomplete negative information on my credit report.

Per 15 U.S.C 1681e Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates.

According to 12 CFR Part 1022 ( Regulation V ) requires furnishers to : Furnish information concerning accounts or other relationships with a consumer that has integrity.

Furnish information about accounts or other relationships with a consumer that is accurate.

C - Conduct reasonable investigations of consumer disputes According to XXXX, in order to make a lawful report, you must follow the Metro 2 compliance standards. 

Also as stated in the XXXX Any Deviation From These Standards Jeopardizes The Integrity of The Data. This means that any mistakes in reporting claims can make the information less accurate and it affects the accuracy of any federally regulated reports. 

Therefore, I am invoking my rights to challenge these inaccurate and non-compliant items. Neglecting my demand will only prove that you DO NOT care about my rights as a consumer. Its NOT FAIR for you to report information that isnt confirmed to be ethical and meets the standards of certified reporting. Again, I am challenging these claims and asking for proof of the proper reporting standards. 

You are violating my rights! I have listed the concerns about your reporting in this document. It's not complete and does not meet my standards according to law, you must certify all aspects of required FCRA/ Metro 2 compliance which is done truthfully, correctly ( in a timely manner ), completely AND accurately as well - or else I would have to escalate these issues to the CFPB XXXX FTC and my Attorney General.
