Product: Vehicle loan or lease — Lease
Issue: Getting a loan or lease — Confusing or misleading advertising
Company: VW Credit, Inc (FL)

My name is XXXX XXXX. Last year XXXX XXXX, XXXX I purchased a lease from XXXX of XXXX, FL. I was asked by the cars salesman to pay him cash for my car payment so he could give me a discount. The cars salesman named XXXX XXXX, pocketed the money I was giving for my car payment. I paid him every month. I have text messages between him and myself of me giving him payment as proof. He never paid the car payment until XXXX XXXX. The reason why he paid it was because a repo man came to my job and tried to reposes the car. He paid the back payments from XXXX to bring me back up to date. He took another {$460.00} from me and never paid the car payment. I called VW and they fired him because of this. I am now behind my payments again because he took that {$460.00} from ( ( which is all on record via text ). I am now trapped in a XXXX year lease for a car payment of {$440.00}. I was promised by the salesman after a year of the lease I could bring the car back in and swap it out for a newer lease or to buy a new car. I only did this to bring my credit up. My credit is now XXXX. I am stuck in a car payment that is so high I am working a second full time job to make up for the car payment. VW will not help me get out of the lease or bring the car payment down. I 've spoken to VW credit and I 've spoken to the XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX at VW of XXXX, where the incident happened. I ca n't afford a lawyer and I am really trying to seek some justice. I want to be put back into a more affordable car. I am so unhappy with the way VW handled this situation. I am a single person asking for help. They are a XXXX dollar company that can afford to help me out in this situation. Please contact me so we can figure out how to come to a resolution. Please XXXX XXXX XXXX reference number XXXX Thanks, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NC)

I noticed that the XXXX XXXX Accounts on my credit report were reporting different information for all three credit bureaus. The inconsistent and inaccurate information ranged from different dates for the last payment, last activity, account status and more. I sent 5 letters to all 3 credit bureaus requesting they investigate the inaccuracies on the XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX has failed to respond to any of my requests. 

I sent a letter to XXXX, Experian and XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX requesting they do an investigation to ensure the accounts were reporting accurately ( letters attached ). 

Experian is reporting in the balance history a balance of {$16000.00} starting in XX/XX/XXXX. They are also reporting that in XX/XX/XXXX a {$50.00} payment was made. However, the months to follow still show a balance of {$16000.00}. How is that possible? Why are they saying I made a payment? And if I did make a payment why is the balance still the same? I pointed this out in my last letter and they came back with the account being verified as accurate ( see Experian error attachment ). XXXX and XXXX is reporting the same balance. 

Experian responded back XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX verifying the accounts as accurate ( see attached ) XXXX responded back XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX verifying the accounts as accurate ( see attached ) and XX/XX/XXXX questioning my identity. 

XXXX has not responded to any of my letters.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (GA)

Equifax is reporting unverified student loan accounts and medical bills of over {$80000.00} on my credit report. I initially contacted Equifax, in writing ( see Attachments ), and requested proof ( documents bearing my signature ), that the debt belonged to me because I have not personally not conducted any business with any of the parties involved in this debt, and know this debt does not belong to me. 
Equifax responded to my request for a signature bearing document with a letter ( See attachments ) stating the debt was verified and it belonged to me and sent me a copy of my credit report. None of the information provided by bore my signature or any other validating evidence linking me to the debt. I responded in writing again ( See attachment # 3 ) to request a signature bearing document as proof of this debt but never received a response. 
Information reported by the 3 major Credit Bureaus vary greatly and makes it very difficult to trust the validity and accuracy of the information provided by Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX. Case in point both XXXX, and XXXX  have investigated the medical bills on my account, deemed the information unverified and invalid, and removed this accounts from my credit report. Yet Equifax continues to display this unverified debt on my credit report in violation of both the FCRA ( Fair Credit Reporting Act ) and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ( HIPAA ). 
In regards to the student loan debt being reported, the Dept. of Ed/XXXX is the company that is reporting on my credit report yet the accounts have been sold to a debt collector XXXX XXXX XXXX. However, the information on my credit report shows that I have XXXX Late payments and the accounts are in good standing. How is this even possible with the accounts in collections? 
This serves as proof the information being reported on my credit report is not accurate nor is being properly verified. The practices of the aforementioned companies are highly predatory and violate both the FCRA ( Fair Credit Reporting Act ) and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ( HIPAA ).

Product: Debt collection — Other debt
Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: National Credit Systems,Inc. (TX)

I have a collection from National Credit Systems which I have tried to contact them concerning this multiple times and I have received no response. They are trying to collect on an apartment that lived at, XXXX at XXXX XXXX. The problem is that I was the only person on the lease and the only person that lived there. I was being stalked by a very crazy guy and filed multiple police reports against him and made the apartment complex aware of the situation. I also provided them with copies of the police reports. The apartment complex refused to let me out of my lease or allow me to move to another section. As I was in fear of my life I moved out of the apartment but paid the last months rent so that I would not have a broken lease on my credit report. After giving notice, returned all keys and moving out he broke in one night and completely vandalized the apartment. I have multiple pictures and police reports, his name, screen shot text messages with him saying he did it all the proof proving it was not me, even proof as to where he broke off the back door to get inside the apartment. The front office was aware of who did it but since I was the only person on the lease I got charged. I tried to contact the apartment to make payment arrangements for the damages, even though I do n't feel responsible, but they continued to ignore me.
