Product: Debt collection — Medical debt
Issue: Communication tactics — You told them to stop contacting you, but they keep trying
Company: Harris & Harris, Ltd. (FL)

I received a notice from a debt collector. Upon receipt I promptly wrote a letter asking for details regarding the validation of the debt as I was unfamiliar with the creditor and the amount. In my letter I disputed the debt and specifically told them not to contact me except to provide the information requested in the letter. I have not received a response, but shortly after sending the letter I started receiving regular " auto calls '' to call the debt collector saying it was important that I call if I did not want them to start " proceedings ''. The recording also said if I didn't identify myself they would assume they had reached the right person regarding the alleged debt. I have received no letter of validation or the requested information despite my request. However it has been less than 30 days since I received the notice and sent the response.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Problem with personal statement of dispute
Company: Affirm Holdings, Inc (OH)

My identity was stolen to open small unsecured loan in the amount of {$950.00} with a lender called AFFIRM Inc. On XXXX XXXX, I supplied AFFIRM Inc. with the documents they requested to formally dispute the account. These documents included a signed affidavit, police report, and copy of my government photo ID ... as directed. However, sadly, they have become non-responsive to me in this matter. I suspect in doing so, they hope the unpaid loan will move to a collection agency so they dont have to deal with it. 

I have re-sent the information NUMEROUS times but they ignore my emails requesting a status update. Calling them results in speaking with low tier individuals they are unable to tell me the status of the case. 

I will try to attach all documents if the system allows ; Identity Theft Notification & Affidavit, and a copy of the police report. 

I have disputed this twice with XXXX  but they continue to side with Affirm who states I am liable for the loan. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (NY)

I've been disputing fraud accounts on my credit report since XX/XX/2020. I keep sending multiple sets of letters to the bureaus and the creditors so the excuse of " we didn't get it '' doesn't happen. Furthermore, each letter is certified mail with tracking and each letter shows signed and delivered and yet the bureaus are still not taking any actions. The accounts are not showing in dispute nor are they removed from my report. The accounts always show up with different name variations and different account number variations and yet the bureaus seem to ignore the trend and let these fraud accounts affect my credit score. I have requested the investigation to be initiated and also verifiable proof to be submitted should the account claim to be mine. Not only have I not received any mail showing the verifiable proofs needed to justify the accounts to be on my report, I haven't even received any letters at all stating the investigations have begun. Per the FCRA and federal law, the process is supposed to be 30 days. 250 days later, I'm still here shelling out money for certified mail with no end in sight and no results to show. This is my last option before I take this up with my lawyers and sue for full compensations and damages incurred. Finally, it seems that when these complaints are submitted, the bureaus are using the excuse that they " can't confirm my identity '' to get away with taking no actions on my credit report. Please investigate this as well.

I am on a graduation repayment plan with Nelnet because, like many other 30-somethings, I have a large amount of student debt. I pay consistently every month, often more than what my amount due is. I am currently stuck in negative amortization and while I am paying over {$200.00} a month for my student loan, I am accruing a interest at such a rate that all of my payments for the last year have only gone towards interest and my principle has still gone up over {$600.00} dollars.
