Company: CL Holdings LLC

Complaint narrative:
I contacted Jefferson Capital systems initially XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX  in a phone call thay was 21 minutes and 17 seconds.

They told me they opened a dispute, but refused to provide me with a l case or reference number when I asked many times. 

They refused to provide me with any documentation when asked. 

They refused to allow my to submit evidence unless I mailed it to them. 

The very best morning they responded to XXXX credit bureau stating that the debt is nine and they closed the disoite with the credit bureau despite me telling then the entire following : Regarding Closed XXXX  Account # XXXX I am contacting you today due to my XXXX  account having had been closed due to XXXX FCRA violations for reporting inaccurate information and failure to correct errors, breach of contract as they failed to fulfill their obligations under the card agreement, and negligence & fraud as their actions caused me financial harm and damage, and FDCPA as they sent my false debt to a collection agency whom engaged in unfair or deceptive collection practices listed as : Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.

XXXX blamed vida for the disoite decision and stated it ls their fault as they make the decisions for XXXX  disputes. 

As a result, my credit score dropped from XXXX down to XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than XXXX days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated.

Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach.

Company: Westlake Services, LLC
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
A charge off account is showing on my report & the creditor told me that I can not get a copy of the 1099-C document because they did not officially charge off the debt and they didn't take a write off which is a violation because it says on my credit report that it is charged off which equates to false reporting & not reporting 100 % accurately. FCRA violations refers to a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, which is a federal law that regulates the collection, dissemination, and use of consumer credit information. Federal law requires that consumer reporting agencies follow reasonable procedures to ensure 100 % accuracy of the information contained in their credit reports. If a consumer suffers damages as a result of a FCRA violation they may be entitled to bring a private lawsuit against the CRA and recover actual damages, statutory damages, and attorney 's fees. These accounts listed on my letter are not 100 % correct and I demand them to be investigated completely.
