The Bureaus are definitely in direct violation and at this point due to passing he timeframe allowed for the investigations, I'm requesting for deletion.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (NY)

On XX/XX/XXXX I applied for American Express XXXX XXXX XXXX credit card. They promotion they were advertising at the time was if you spend {$2000.00} in within the first 3 months you will receive XXXX bonus miles and if you spend and addiontal {$1000.00} within 6 months you will get an additional XXXX miles which would equal XXXX miles altogether. Also if you make a XXXX purchase you will get a {$50.00} statement credit. This promotion expired on XX/XX/XXXX. 
My first statement was cut in XX/XX/XXXX and I saw the I was given XXXX bonus miles before I spent {$2000.00}. I called XXXX to find out why I was given these miles and to find out more information in regards to how the program worked. He explained to me that I was under the promotion if I spend {$1000.00} in the first 3 months I would get XXXX miles. I explained to him that was not the promotion when I applied and explained the miles my account is supposed to be under. He told me he does not see anything about that promotion for my account and asked if I have proof about the promotion? How are you asking me if I have proof? I would think XXXX would keep track of these programs and apply them accordingly to each customer that qualifies. When I received my credit card there no documentation of the promotion. 
After going back and forth he told me that an investigation would need to be opened to find out the issue. I have read online that numerous customers have had this issue and kept giving them the run around about opening a investigation and that it should be completed in 6-8 weeks, they have stated they are still waiting on their miles after 1 year of the initial investigation. 
I have already reached the {$2000.00} limit and I would like my account to be put under that promotion and receive everything the promotion stated.

Company: Rent Recovery Solutions (GA)

I received a letter from rent recovery solutions, XXXX stating that I owe the {$300.00}. I requested debt validation from them and they are sent documentation for an apartment that I never lived in. I then sent another letter for the debt validation and received a letter with charges on it. 

I did sign a lease for the address listed, but the apartment was infested with roaches and I moved out before a week and there was no damage to the apartment. Now that they can not validate the debt they are modifying what they are sending. 

This is not debt validation and they have not and will not provide it.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CA)

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a credit report alert for the first time through TransUnion notifying me about a delinquent account that was reported to the credit bureaus ( which had detrimental effect on my credit score ) by a collection agency, named XXXX XXXX XXXX. This agency acted on behalf of XXXX XXXX Fire Department ( XXXX ) regarding what is perceived to be an overdue payment for XXXX ambulance service on XX/XX/XXXX. While it is true that I had used an ambulance service on that particular date, I had never received a bill through the mail in this regard, bearing in mind that my insurance coverage pays the ambulance service 100 %. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX to locate my collection account. I discovered that the agency had me under a different last name ( XXXX and not XXXX ), they did n't have my full address ( just the building address without apartment number ) and did n't have my social security number. Afterwards, I called XXXX who acknowledged to me that they had sent a bill to an incomplete address ( a mistake from their part ) and that the mail bounced back to them and they did n't search for my information. They also notified me that they will file a claim to my health insurance company and they will pull back the collections claim and apologized for their mistake. Since, I was kept in the dark for a year and I did n't receive a single mail to inform me of these developments from either parties, I kindly ask to notify all credit bureaus to remove any negative impact this situation could have resulted in my report.
