Complaint narrative:
Subject : Request for Removal of Unverifiable Account Dear Credit Reporting Department, I am writing to formally request the removal of an account from my credit report as reported by [ Equifax ]. This request is based on the recent deletion of an account by XXXX, one of the four major credit reporting agencies. I recently disputed a charge-o for {$26000.00} from XXXX XXXX XXXX Account XXXX XXXX The company listed on my XXXX report, and following a thorough investigation, XXXX has completely removed this unverifiable debt from my report as of XX/XX/year> According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ), all consumer reporting agencies must ensure that information in consumer reports is accurate, fair, and verifiable. Since XXXX has removed this account after its verification process, I request that you do the same and remove this unverifiable account from my credit report. Supporting Consumer Laws : FCRA Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) requires that inaccurate or unverifiable information must be deleted from a consumer 's credit file. I am exercising my right. to ensure that my credit report remains fair, accurate, and free of unverifiable information. Since XXXX has deemed this account unverifiable and removed it, you must take similar action. Additionally, under FCRA Section 623 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ), information suppliers must report only complete and accurate information. With XXXX having deemed this information unverifiable, I urge you to align its records accordingly. Please provide confirmation of this removal within 30 days of receipt of this request. If the account is not removed, I am prepared to pursue further actions, including filing a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and seeking legal action under the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), including Section 616 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681n ), which allows consumers to seek legal recourse for willful non- compliance, and Section 617 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681o ) for negligent non-compliance. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter, as it directly impacts my credit report 's integrity. Please notify me in writing once this deletion has been processed. Thank you for your immediate attention to this request.

Product: Debt collection — Payday loan debt
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: American Coradius International LLC
State: DC

Complaint narrative:
Unbeknownst to me, I discovered a debt ( previously owned by XXXX - and marked as such across all of my credit reports ) is held by American Coradius Int'l . When I called seeking validation of debt, they told me they couldn't send me any correspondence. When I sought to understand how I could proceed if they couldn't verify the debt - they advised that I should send them a personalized letter, but after that they still wouldn't send me a validation of the debt. 

When I sought to further understand, they tried to get me to pay for the unvalidated debt, and then advised they wouldn't be able to provide access to a secure payment portal, nor provide proof of payment. When they again couldn't provide validation of debt, or access to any type of secure portal, they asked me to send them a check although they still will not validate the debt nor provide a physical proof of payment. 

I have received no phone calls, physical mail, nor emails to validate this debt and yet they have advised me to not securely provide funds to them with no paper trail and send them mail with payment with no paper trail. American Coradius Int'l should not be able to claim any debt related to me when they can provide me no proof that this debt belongs to me.

Complaint narrative:
I accidentally missed a car loan payment with XXXXXXXX XXXX in XXXX, and immediately paid off the loan once I noticed. The payment I was delinquent for was the final payment. 

My credit score was docked for having a delinquent loan ( which is correct ), but even though I've paid off the loan, my credit score hasn't recovered.

So there's nothing incorrect about any record keeping, I'm more disputing the effect on my credit score.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my frustration regarding the ongoing restriction on my account, despite my payments being fully up to date. Each time I contact your customer service, I am told to wait XXXX business days, yet my account remains restricted with no resolution. 

Additionally, my Walmart Rewards Card was changed to a Capital One card that I did not apply for, without any prior notification, terms, or interest rate information being sent to me. This unauthorized change raises serious concerns about transparency and proper account management. 

On XX/XX/year>, I spoke with a representative named XXXX ( ID : XXXX ) regarding these issues. Unfortunately, she repeatedly spoke over me and refused to listen to my concerns. When I requested to speak with a supervisor, she did not transfer my call but instead returned with the same scripted response. This lack of proper assistance is unacceptable.
