Complaint narrative:
VALIDATION OF ACCOUNT Account # : XXXX Account # XXXX To Whom It May Concern, I neither affirm, nor deny this purported debt. 

Under the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act, I have the right to request validation of the debt you say I owe you. I am requesting proof that I am the correct party, and there is some contractual obligation which is binding on me to pay this debt. This is NOT a request for verification via E-Oscar or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to the above named Title and Section of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. 

Reporting inaccurate and unsubstantiated information to a credit reporting agency may constitute fraud under federal law. Compliance with this request is required under the laws of state and federal statutes. 

Debt validation includes the following : Who was the original creditor on this account, and what was the account number? 
What was the original amount owed? Please provide a complete payment history, starting with the original creditor. 
Please provide me documentation that indicates that I agreed to pay someone this sum of money. 
What was the original date of delinquency for this account? 
Agreement that grants you the authority to collect on this alleged debt, or proof of acquisition by assignment. 
What did you pay for this account, and how did you calculate the current amount owed? 

I require compliance with the terms and conditions of this letter within 14 days of your certified receipt, or a complete removal from my credit profile, in writing, of your claim. In the event of noncompliance, I reserve the right to file charges and/or complaints with the FTC, and appropriate county, state, and federal authorities. I also hereby reserve my right to take private civil action against your company to recover damages. 

In addition, the Fair Credit Reporting Act states that while this item is being investigated you must indicate to the bureau that the account is under dispute and will remove/cease from reporting this information to the Credit Reporting Agency until full validation has been completed.

I have sent a copy of this request for validation to the three national Credit Reporting Agencies to begin their 14 day investigational process concurrent with your investigation.

Company: CL Holdings LLC
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Jefferson capital systems sent a letter to my place of employment. No where on the letter does it state private or confidential, or for me personally. As they are aware, in most companies, one person will open the mail. 
Due to this they basically shared information about an account with multiple subordinates. This letter was not an attempt to verify information or to get contact information, instead this was a settlement offer, which I believe is a violation of the FCRA. 

As stated, a professional company knows mail is opened by a few people. I had moved, but all my mail was forwarded, so they would have had my home mailing address. Doing some light research, it appears this is common with this company to try and shame people and or embarass them at their place of employment. 

I have tried to contact them to work this out, they have decided they do not wish too

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.

ubject : Dispute of Charged-Off Account and Missing 1099-C Form Dear Capital One Auto Finance, I am writing to dispute the information reported regarding my account. specifically the " charged off '' status that has been indicated. According to IRS guidelines, when a debt is charged off, the creditor is required to issue a Form 1099-C, Cancellation of Debt. 
As of today, I have not received the 1099-C form for this account, and I believe this constitutes a failure on your part to meet IRS reporting requirements. I am requesting that you either : 1. Provide me with the 1099-C form for the canceled debt, or 2. Remove the charged-off status from my account entirely if no 1099-C is issued. 

If this matter is not resolved promptly, I will have no choice but to contact the IRS and report this as potential fraud and noncompliance with federal tax laws. I expect to hear from you within 30 days to confirm either the issuance of the 1099-C or the removal of the charged-off notation. 
Please treat this matter with the urgency it deserves. 
Sincerely,

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Equifax for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report. Despite my submissions, Equifax consistently responds within 24 hours stating the account is accurate, without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation. This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Equifax 's actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ) ,12 U.S. Code 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding ( File No. XXXX ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Equifax complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation.

I am submitting a complaint against Equifax for their failure to remove inaccurate accounts from my credit report, which is a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Despite providing the necessary documentation to prove the inaccuracies, Equifax has not fulfilled its legal obligations under the FCRA, including ensuring maximum possible accuracy of my credit report ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ) and conducting a proper reinvestigation to remove the errors within the required 30-day period ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ).

I am writing to file a complaint against NFCU regarding multiple overdraft fees I have incurred.
