Subject : Formal Complaint Against Midland Credit Management for Inaccurate and Unverifiable Credit Reporting I am filing this formal complaint against Midland Credit Management for continued inaccurate and unverifiable reporting of an alleged account on my credit report. This account is being reported in violation of federal law, specifically the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). Despite multiple disputes, Midland Credit Management has failed to provide proper validation of the debt or correct/remove the inaccurate information. 

Details of the Issue : 1. Inaccurate Reporting The account contains incorrect information, including the balance, date of last activity, and status. 2.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I filed a complaint with PayPal as I used the PayPal credit card to make a purchase. The item I purchased is defective and the excuse PayPal has used to deny my claim is that it has been more than 30 days. I thought credit cards were supposed to protect the consumer when there is a product defect but PayPal based their decision solely on the fact that it was more than 30 days since the purchase. Here is the complaint I sent to PayPal : This rock tumbler has had issues since I received it. The barrels are unreliable and burst open frequently. I've been in contact with the vendor who has tried sending different replacement parts, but this hasn't worked. I recently found out the vendor has been aware there is an issue with the barrels of this model but never informed me that this was a problem with all units. I assumed it was only with my tumbler. Because the vendor never bothered to warn me or instruct me to stop using the tumbler, once I received the new gasket, I continued to use the tumbler only to have it burst open while I was at work. Wet grit does nasty things and it ruined my textured XXXX flooring. It also rendered one of the rods useless. I have been asking the vendor to send me a label to return the items to the vendor so that I can get a refund for this malfunctioning tumbler but the vendor now ignores my emails. I feel I have no other choice but to submit a claim through PayPal. I have the emails that prove the vendor knew the barrels were malfunctioning for this model. 

The item was delivered on XX/XX/XXXX and I have been in contact with the vendor since XX/XX/XXXX. There have been many more emails since XX/XX/XXXX. I have requested a return shipping label but I have not received one. 

Attached are some pictures. The first is of the barrel before the replacement gasket. I was taping the barrel to avoid a rupture. Next is the damage caused once the barrel burst. The third picture shows the barrel after it burst open, even though it was taped up. The last picture is of the grit that was in the barrel and ended up everywhere once the barrel burst open.

Complaint narrative:
Unauthorized access to my credit report by multiple companies has caused direct and measurable harm to both my credit and credit score. I previously contacted your agency and was assured by a representative that these unauthorized inquiries would be removed. That assurance has not been honored, these inquiries remain on my report. This failure to act is unacceptable. The continued presence of these potentially fraudulent entries is alarming and strongly indicates possible identity theft, causing ongoing emotional and financial harm.
