Re : CFPB # XXXX Dated : XX/XX/2018 Report # XXXX Dated : XX/XX/18 You stated that you obtained my information from XXXX. Which I find it extremely difficult if not impossible. Because I have a security freeze on my XXXX account dated XX/XX/2018. But assuming you managed to get my credit report from XXXX which is a direct violation of the FCRA then, XXXX does not meet the Federal Trade Commissions guidelines of what constitutes proper debt validation. Please provide me the method of verification as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), you are required by federal law to verify - through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract. Therefore, in accordance with s.1629e ( 8 ) of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, That clearly states that any information know to be false, can not be reported to any credit bureau , In the event that you can not verify the item pursuant to the FCRA , and you continue to list the disputed item on my credit report I will find it necessary to sue you for actual damages and declaratory relief under the FCRA. According to this regulation, I may sue you in any qualified state or federal court, including small claims court in my area. While I prefer not to litigate, I will use the courts as needed to enforce my rights under the FCRA. 

I look forward to an uneventful resolution of this matter. 

Please send me a copy of my updated credit report as soon as the above has been completed. Thank you.

Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action — Sued you without properly notifying you of lawsuit
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (CA)

XX/XX/XXXX RE : Best Buy Account # XXXX, which Citi illegally sold to XXXX XXXX XXXX / XXXX XXXX. ( Also a Violation of Consent Order XXXX. ) Citis debt collector, XXXX XXXX XXXX DBA XXXX, is unlawfully attempting to collect on a phantom debt which Citi illegally sold to XXXX XXXX. Citi is ultimately liable for the conduct of its agents. I ask that Citi immediately remedy this unlawful conduct, including unlawful collection actions for a debt that I never owed and that would be outside the statute of limitations even if the debt were valid.

Specifically, the account balance was XXXX when I closed the account in XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX filed lawsuit around XX/XX/2017 but provided no validation of the debt showing why it claimed I owed any money to it.

Citi illegally sold the debt to XXXX XXXX XXXX, which sued me for the invalid debt by submitting a false proof of service to the court. I was out of state with my gate up at my house with nobody living at my house at the time the process server supposedly served the complaint. Other courts had found the process server to have filed false affidavits with the court, according to court filings.

XXXX is alleging an amount far higher than the underlying charge along with attorneys fees. However, I did not owe the underlying debt ; and even if I did owe the debt, it would have been outside of the statute of limitations. I should not be subject to paying for a debt I do not owe or be subject to default for a debt I do not owe. Citi and XXXX XXXX also failed to validate/verify the debt or forward my financial records to me regarding this debt. This is the most I can piece together since the lenders and XXXX XXXX refuse to give me a complete copy of my financial records and the entire file related to the account.

Citis conduct is in direct violation of Consent Order XXXX, which the CFPB ordered after it found violations very similar to my case. As such, Citi should be held in contempt and sanctioned.

I informed Citi and XXXX XXXX XXXX of their unlawful conduct, the falsified service affidavit and their many consumer violations in order that the lawsuit be dismissed. In response, the attorneys filed a request for default. In my opinion their conduct is unethical and unlawful. My requests were ignored and held against me. Please contact me if you would like any additional information.

This is now my 3rd time reaching out about an issue. XXXX XXXX is continuing to report inaccurate information. Not for sure why, but my last request said that I wasn't clear in my reply. I'm pretty sure that I was VERY clear as to what the issue was. I will copy and paste that info here : what I sent in on XX/XX/18 : This is my 2nd CFBP complaint against each of the 3 Credit Bureaus about this Company! I sent in one at the beginning of XXXX. They stated that they had closed this out and that it was accurate. However, as you can see from my updated credit report, it is STILL NOT accurate!!! The Date Opened is still incorrect The Date last Active is still incorrect The Past Due amount is stil incorrect The payment history is still incorrect I am asking you to remove this account from my credit report asap. I have been asking them to do this for many months now. Each month they continue to ignore my requests. 

I am now asking you to remove this account. I have been asking for months to have this information report accurately or to remove. I am on the verge of considering seeking counsel for this issue. it's very clear they have no desire to abide by the laws and report this information correctly.

Company: AFNI INC. (SC)

This debt was owed and was with a different collection agency last year. I made arrangements and paid this debt in full, I was promised that it would be off of my credit report within a month of receiving the final payment. I did not hear back from that collection agency, but a few months later I began receiving bills for the same debt but with a different collection agency. I have explained to them that this has been paid, they claim to have no record because they are a different agency, and they still have not corrected their mistake. This debt is paid, and has been paid for months and I can not seem to get this problem solved. Please help me! This new collection company is called AFNI on my credit report and is trying to collect an old paid off XXXX XXXX XXXX bill. Either they are making a mistake or I am a victim of identity theft.

A collection account appeared on my credit report that does not belong to me and I disputed this with all 3 credit bureaus as well as the company reporting the account. The 3 credit bureaus claim that this has been " verified '' as mine and yet they never proved anything, which is not allowed under federal law. All 3 bureaus also were aware that I have a lawsuit against persons that obtained and used credit with my personal information, which includeded business accounts. All 3 bureaus have copies of this lawsuit, which I am also attaching to this complaint. This account was not authorized by me, opened or applied to by me, signed by me or used by me or by any company that I am a part of. This must be deleted immediately from my credit report because it does not belong to me and I am not liable for it. This company sent me a " contract '' that does not include anything other my first and last name and the company that I used to belong to. There 's no signature ( as I did n't sign it XXXX or any other legal proof that I ever authorized or had any part of it. 

This is part of my complaint against all 3 bureaus : I cant believe that these accounts are still reporting on my credit file and one of them DOESNT EVEN BELONG TO ME! This fake company XXXX sent me a fake contract with no information on it other than my name no address, social, date of birth or even a signature. I did NOT fill out an application, have a contract with, services with or apply to this company that is sending me fake documents for $ XXXX. This is NOT legal to attempt to collect a debt that I dont owe and I am adding you to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau complaint against this company in regards to this false account. I am attaching the lawsuit against a person that was part of a company I was with who used my information to obtain credit and use company credit. You are being negligent in reporting an account that you know to be reporting inaccurately because you already had this contract and removed the XXXX XXXX account that was part of this lawsuit. This company specifically stated in their response to me that they attached proof of the debt. I am including this fake proof that clearly shows none of the required info. You are legally required to delete this XXXX XXXX 1 immediately, as you AND this illegitimate company are in violation of federal law.

Hi I have a problem with a online merchant about the service they provide. I filed my dispute with CITI bank, but they believe the evident that I provide are only good for a legal case ( since it's a merchant violation of contract ). Citi bank don't think they can chargeback the merchant for a legal case. In that case. I am writing a complaint here and hopefully I can get some legal documentation to push this dispute to the arbitration.

Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes — 
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (PA)

After learning that my social security number may have been compromised in late XXXX, I initiated a security freeze with all three agencies. I have been calling them to find out how I can ensure that the freeze does not lapse. I had NO PROBLEM with XXXX ; they asked what state my freeze was initiated in and said it would expire early next month. They helped me over the phone to terminate the soon-to-expire freeze and immediately initiate a new freeze with a new 7 year time limit. 
Both TransUnion and XXXX said they do not allow security freezes to expire. In each of these cases, I reached an overseas call center in XXXX. Even though I cited the Pennsylvania statute stipulating that security freezes will expire after seven years, they insisted they would not. Assuming the PA statute is in force, my freeze with TransUnion will expire on XXXX XXXX, XXXX, and my freeze with XXXX will expire on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I am concerned that in spite of their assurances, their system will conform to the law and my freeze will be allowed to expire. I plan on calling again on the expiration date, but expect to hear the same thing.
