Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I, XXXX XXXX, believes in the credit reporting system as the most important element to the success of the commercial banking system. I am also a proponent of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) as a tool to streamline issues on credit reports that may be dragging down my overall scores. Accordingly, I address each particular issue directly with the creditor in question, before submitting any complaint to the credit bureaus if necessary. Therefore, I desire the following reinvestigation as follows : 1 ) On accounts where late payments are posted, I respectfully request a review of the past payment history and to ascertain if certain payments could actually have been posted late because of an overlap on the 30-days grace period. I realize that this may happen on occasion, and I request only a summary review internally, and do not require any documentation.

2 ) On any account that falls within the 84-month negative reporting timeline, I respectfully request either the deletion of the account if said account was closed, or the elimination of the prior payment if the account it is still active, this is well within the
Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) guidelines pertaining to obsolete information.

3 ) Any collections must be proved if either a direct collection and/or debt purchase. In either event I request that a true original copy of right to pursue collection be established with each respective credit reporting agency, and if a debt purchase the guidelines proving transfer of ownership must be submitted to all credit bureaus as well as me personally to validate ownership and the right to collect. I am well within my rights requesting proper documentation as administered through the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), in addition to the even stricter guidelines enforced by the office of attorney general in my state of domicile. 
I respectfully request each investigation to be reported to XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX within a reasonable time period, hopefully 30-days. I realize that the current Covid-19 crisis could cause delays, so the best efforts of each financial institution and collection agency will be appreciated under the current circumstances.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2020 my credit score on Experian dropped 81 points. The only changes were an inquiry for a refinance of my mortgage, and a lease for a new car after my car was a total loss in an accident. I spoke with several representatives at Experian who agree that nothing in my credit report has changed significantly, but they can not find out specifically why my credit score dropped by a huge amount. I would like to know the specific reasons and they won't inform me of anything. 

Incidentally, XXXX  and XXXX  have not lowered my scores at all. This tells me something is wrong at Experian.
