Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: Continental Services Group, Inc. d/b/a ConServe (FL)

Subject : Complaint Against Conserve - Illegal Collection Practices Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to bring to your attention a concerning issue regarding the debt collector agency, Conserve. I have experienced what I believe to be illegal collection practices and wish to file a complaint with your organization to seek justice and resolution. 

Conserve initiated collection efforts against me for a debt that I firmly believe to be inaccurate and unsubstantiated. Despite my repeated attempts to request validation and proof of this debt, Conserve has failed to provide any supporting documentation. Furthermore, they have continued their aggressive collection tactics, including harassment and intimidation, in clear violation of my rights as a consumer. 

I kindly request that the CFPB conduct a thorough investigation into the activities and practices of Conserve, as these actions are in direct violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and other applicable consumer protection laws. 

Specifically, I have experienced the following illegal collection practices by Conserve : 1. Failure to provide validation of the debt : Despite my written requests for verification, Conserve has consistently failed to provide any supporting documentation or proof of the alleged debt. 

2. Harassment and intimidation : Conserve 's agents have repeatedly engaged in harassing phone calls, using aggressive language, and making false threats of legal actions against me. These actions are explicitly prohibited under the FDCPA. 

3. Inaccurate reporting to credit bureaus : Conserve has irresponsibly reported the disputed debt to credit bureaus without conducting a proper investigation or validating the accuracy of the debt. This has caused significant damage to my creditworthiness and overall financial well-being. 

I urge the CFPB to take immediate action against Conserve to put an end to these illegal collection practices and to protect other consumers who may be similarly affected. I request that appropriate penalties and sanctions be imposed to hold Conserve accountable for their actions. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust that the CFPB will take swift action in investigating this complaint and ensuring that justice is served. I look forward to receiving updates on the progress made and the resolution of this.

After resolving an issue with XXXX involving the abuse of a POA, XXXX and myself reached a resolution which involved me paying a portion of the account and removing the tradeline completely or reporting the tradeline as PIF with no derogatory remarks. However, after receiving the payment which I only made to remove ALL negative remarks, due to me proving XXXX was partially responsible for the vehicle being unlawfully possessed, XXXX instead updated the report to indicate " Settled for less, $ $ written off '', which is STILL a negative derogatory remark that indicates the account was not in a satisfactory condition. This has continued to prevent me from deploying or progressing due to the account still negatively impacting my security clearance.

Product: Student loan — Private student loan
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: DISCOVER BANK (MO)

My granddaughter secured a private student loan from Discover in  XXXX in the amount of {$12000.00}. I am her grandmother and a co-signer. In the spring of XXXX, we started paying back the loan in the amount of {$130.00} monthly. My granddaughter does not make payments in time however, Discover does not charge late fees. I have got her up-to-date a few times but this week, I got a payment stub and began looking at the entire loan history. Loan was for {$12000.00} ; says total paid has been {$6100.00} ; total principal amount is {$2200.00} ; current balance is {$11000.00}. That reflects a decrease of only {$500.00}. How are we ever going to pay off this loan if in a approx. 4 year period, only {$500.00} has ACTUALLY been applied to the principal? I have tried to get Discover to explain how payments are applied but get no satisfaction. I think they are charging interest upon deferred interest upon daily interest, etc. I need to know if what they are doing is perfectly legal and how my granddaughter can get this loan paid off knowing that only pennies are going to decrease the loan amount.

Under section 604 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) explains that the permissible purposes listed in FCRA section 604 ( a ) ( 3 ) are consumer specific, and it affirms that a consumer reporting agency may not provide a consumer report to a user under FCRA section 604 ( a ) ( 3 ) unless it has reason to believe that all of the consumer report information it includes pertains to the consumer who is the subject of the users request.

My consumer rights are being violated with this inaccurate information! I have a right to be treated fairly by those who control it, so please provide me all available details on how they came up short in their responsibilities towards accuracy and compliance. I am officially challenging you to review your data on file for me! With the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) section 611 ( 15 U S C 1681I ) and Metro 2 compliance standards, I challenge all inaccuracies or deficiencies in reporting. The credit report I received was not accurate, which surprises me because you should be adhering to the FCRA and applicable Metro 2 data field formatting standards. As a consumer, I have listed the concerns about your reporting in this document. It is not complete and does not meet applicable standards because according to law you are required for both FCRAs as well as Metro 2 compliance which must be done truthfully with correct information being provided timely so that none of my rights are violated I am aware that you have been sending out form letters in response to many of the disputes and challenges that consumers have submitted, regardless of the specific information that they have provided. This is illegal, as each dispute and challenge must be addressed individually and on its own merits. My letters were created using software that is available to everyone. If you don't process my letters, you are violating 15 U.S. Code 5 1681i. Keep in mind, that you are not allowed to delay processing letters from consumers based on the assumption that help from a third party may be available. This is not a legal exception. I am the author of any letters you receive with my name on them. Either I or my advisors wrote them with my full knowledge and consent. I am aware that no law says you need to provide a Power of Attorney to delay processing letters from a consumer. If you do not process my letters promptly, I will consider it to be an intentional disregard of my rights as a consumer. I will then contact my lawyer to take legal action. 

Summary of Accounts being challenged in list form XXXX XXXX  - Account Number:XXXX Please investigate the history reported on this account It is inaccurate this company does not have any information to verify as they have reported over and over in the history that they have " No Data ( ND ) ''. As this is unverifiable, FCRA Sect. 611 REQUIRES you to delete this immediately as anything inaccurate about the information they have furnished requires correction or deletion according to FCRA Sect. 611.

Today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) I checked my credit score from XXXX XXXX, I have a XXXX rating from transunion and XXXX. So I wanted to check Experian to see if all three credit companies had the same rating for me. 
Experian had a score of XXXX for me and incorrect information on two closed history accounts that have been removed from XXXX and XXXX. 
I called to file a dispute on a XXXX  XXXX account that was showing a charge off three months past the time it was paid. It was also showing charge off when I was making monthly payments every month since XX/XX/XXXX. This account was paid off on XX/XX/XXXX. 
The person I talked to was trying to persuade me to not file a dispute, I insisted but do not know for sure if they went through with it. 
The second account was the same. A XXXX account that was paid off on XX/XX/XXXX. 
Their records show that it was still in arrears XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I would like for these accounts to be removed from my credit report. 
This is egregious behavior for a credit reporting agency to miss these very important facts that determine the paths of peoples lives.
