Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year> Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Subject : Request to Update Credit Report XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Reporting To Whom It May Concern : I am writing to request your assistance in correcting an inaccurate report from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  on my credit file. The account in question pertains to a debt purchased by XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX. and currently reflects a negative status, which does not accurately represent my current payment arrangement. 

The details of the account are as follows : Account Number : [ XXXX ] Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX. 
Balance : {$380.00} Payment Plan : Active ( with XXXX payments remaining as of XX/XX/year> ) Next Payment Due : XX/XX/year> As the attached documents demonstrate, I have entered into an active and agreed-upon payment plan with XXXX XXXX XXXX to resolve this debt. I have been making timely payments according to the schedule, as evidenced by the confirmation of my most recent payment made on XX/XX/year>. 

Despite this, the account is still being reported as a negative collection account, which is unfair and inaccurate. The status of this debt should be updated to reflect the active payment arrangement and my continued adherence to it. Therefore, I am requesting the Consumer Financial Protection Bureaus intervention to have XXXX XXXX XXXX correct this reporting and ensure that the information reflects the positive status of my ongoing payment plan. 

Please ensure that the updated information is reflected with all three major credit bureaus : XXXX, Experian, and XXXX. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I look forward to receiving confirmation that the necessary corrections have been made. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. 
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. ''

Company: Lending Force, LLC
State: WV

Complaint narrative:
My husband and I applied at Lending Force LLC for a refinance XX/XX/year>. When the initial loan documents came through for us to sign the information on the documentation was incorrect. I reached out to the Loan officer and advised her the documents were different than what we discussed. We did not sign those documents. The next documents came in and they had me and the veteran and my husband as the borrow, I again advised that this is incorrect as my husband was the veteran were then told it would be fine only for us later on to have to resign these documents. During this whole process we were asked to provide multiple documentations and we submitted every request. When it was time for the closing disclosures were were sent someone else 's documentation that lived in South Carolina and we live in XXXX XXXX. The notary finally got our documentation and that is when we found out we had received the wrong one earlier that day. I called XXXX XXXX as the amount that was finally amount that was supposed to be deposited in our account was different than what I saw earlier that day. That's how we found out that we were sent the wrong documents earlier. We finally ended up signing the correct loan documentation until XXXX XX/XX/year>. We were told that Lending Force LLC sends us the checks already paid out to the debtors and we just have to mail them. On Monday, XX/XX/year> the check arrived via XXXX. We looked at the checks and I noticed that only my husband 's name was on the checks as a reference not my name. I included my account numbers and my statements on all the debts. On Tuesday, XX/XX/year> I mailed all the checks and went to XXXX to pay the debts.I had to explain that my husbands name is on there but we did a refi and this was for my credit card and loan payment. It was no issued the payment was processed I got my receipt. My husband went to XXXX on Wednesday, XX/XX/year> to pay on his loan with the check that was provided. He got his receipt. On Friday, XX/XX/year>, I login to check my XXXX  account to make sure that the balances were zeroed out and I see that both of the payments that were made on my credit card and loan were reversed and charges were deducted from my account. I called XXXX and the rep said the checks were returned and to call the issuer. I reached out XXXX and told him what happened and that I have mailed all the other checks, why are the checks not clearing. Now my husband did this whole refi for what b/c now we are incurring my charges. I expressed my frustration and concerns to be told they will issue more checks. I do not wish to have more checks issued only to end up in this same situation again. I asked if they could wire the monies to the lenders and was told no they can't. As of XXXX XX/XX/year> there has been no resolution. This has been both unprofessional and inconvenient for my husband and myself.
