The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records. Please block/remove these items.

I have tried to resolve this issue before and you know that you are breaking the law. Any transaction or experience between the consumer and the person making the report Shall NOT be reported on consumer reports. 

There are four attachments to this complaint. Please take the time to open them up and read them so that we may resolve this issue. There are congressional findings and definitions giving proof that the information about XXXX XXXX shall not be reported on my consumer report. This is very embarrassing to even go through this process, my character is being defamed and my privacy is being seen by anyone who tries to access my credit report. Please have this issue resolved within 4 days. I have already wasted time trying to have this issue resolved and I can not get that time back. 

I will be awaiting your response in the next few days. I am trying to purchase a home and this is slowing me down.

Issue: Disclosure verification of debt — Not given enough info to verify debt
Company: ERC (IL)

An account that was in collections with a company called Enhanced Recovery Company for an old cell phone through XXXX was re-aged on my credit report. I contacted ERC and they investigated the dates and basically they decided to remove the account from my credit report. Last week I get and alert on my credit monitoring that a new collection account has been listed on my credit report and the same account from XXXX is now listed by a company called XXXX XXXX XXXX and they have a date or account being opened as XX/XX/2017. I attempted to contact XXXX by phone and by email all last week. I never got a reply of any kind back from them. This account was supposed to be permanently removed from my credit report by ERC and it seems they not only re-added the account they sold it to another company and that company re-aged it.
