Complaint narrative:
In XXXX of this year I received a call from Portfolio Recovery Associates ( PRA ) regarding a {$10000.00} outstanding XXXX debt through a XXXX XXXX. They followed with a phone call 3 weeks later. XXXX had sold this debt to PRA, and PRA was trying to collect this from me. I have NEVER had a XXXX account and made this very clear to them. Still they have been calling and sending forms. I spoke to to PRA this morning because they said they needed more information. When they asked for my address, I gave it to them which they already had. They also have an address for a XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, NY XXXX. I asked why they hadn't pursued this and couldn't get a reasonable answer. PRA offered me a settlement which I declined because I'm not going to pay for something that's not mine. PRA only wants to collect this debt. I need this to go away because it dropped my credit rating from the high XXXX range to the mid XXXX 's. Please help me with this. 
Thank you.

Complaint narrative:
If you continue to disregard my demands for compliant reporting practices, I will consider this letter as an official notice prior to my petition for a writ of review in civil court. As the injured consumer of your inadequate reporting practices, I contest your assumed reporting privileges for any and all of your challenged claims in this consumer complaint. I demand that you demonstrate your compliance with state and federal reporting mandates, including the XXXX, FCRA, ECOA, and any applicable laws in my state. I am concerned that your claims may not adhere to industry standards for legal and ethical reporting, particularly in relation to the Metro 2 Data-filled Field Formatted Reporting Standards, per XXXX. 

Upon reviewing my personal consumer credit report, I have noticed questionable and/or inadequately reported data in my file at your company 's office. I am confused as to how and why this information has been populated or repopulated into my credit report profile, and whether or not I received the required 5-day notice of its return to reporting. Per the FCRA, any item previously removed can not be reinserted into a consumer 's credit report without written notice to the injured consumer within five business days. I have not received such notice, nor have I received any evidence of the accuracy and completeness of your reported claims. Your failure to remove these claims is a violation of my consumer rights and is unjust.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
Synchrony bank closed an account with someone's personal slanderous, maligning opinion. " Activity in account ( s ) with synchrony bank indicative of high risk of " failure to pay. '' Account they are referring to has never had a late payment ever and I did NOT enroll this account as I felt justified in paying entire amount. Second I am in a structured debt settlement program, in which I have already settled 75 % accounts with these bloodsuckers including their " inflation '' charges. They put another negative statement on my credit where it would have shown I paid it all off and closed in good standing. If I were at high risk of failure to pay, why are they getting paid above principal on amounts they have jacked up another 30 % bs fees on? This company is NOT willing to work with consumers. Until you bring in a third party, they are worthless. This company is an ambulance chaser buying up all credit card companies, putting the working person in financial bankruptcy. I could have filed, or just not paid a dime and let them write them all off. Really motivates me to NOT want to pay these vampires another dime on any remaining accounts.
