Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Reporting Agencies play a crucial role in gathering and assessing consumer credit information. However, they must exercise their responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and respect for the consumers right to privacy. The banking system relies on accurate and fair credit reporting, and when these reporting methods are unfair, it undermines public trust, which is vital for the system 's stability. I never gave my explicit, written consent for these agencies to report my information, which is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ). This violation has led to an alleged case of identity theft, breaching 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. The accounts in question are not related to any transactions made by me.

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act was created to ensure that laws and procedures are in place to protect consumers from abusive, deceptive, and unfair practices by debt collectors. In this case, the company has violated 15 U.S. Code 1692f, which prohibits debt collectors from using unfair or unconscionable means to collect a debt. Specifically, they can not collect any amounts that arent explicitly authorized by the agreement or allowed by law. Additionally, the company has violated 15 U.S. Code 1692e, which prohibits the use of false, deceptive, or misleading representations in debt collection efforts. This includes using deceptive methods to collect a debt or gather consumer information. Moreover, they are forbidden from contacting consumers at inconvenient times or places, or engaging in behavior that harasses or abuses consumers.

In this case, the company has harassed me by claiming I owe a debt that I do not recognize as my responsibility. They have also contacted me at inconvenient times and places, in violation of the law.

The bill collector is harassing me to pay a debt that was charged off. Under FCRA I would like to seek statutory damages because the creditor furnishes inaccurate information on my credit report.

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations. Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.

Your order # XXXX I am writing to formally dispute multiple charges made through XXXX  XXXX XXXX in relation to a transaction with a third-party vendor, XXXX XXXX XXXX 

XXXX charged my account three separate times for {$190.00}, totaling {$580.00}, for a service ( a plane ticket ) that I never received. The transaction was initially declined by XXXX, and I was informed that XXXX XXXX refunded one payment of {$190.00} to my credit card. However, XXXX has withheld the additional funds and claims they were sent to XXXX XXXX the fact that I never received any product or service. 

In addition, these unauthorized withdrawals triggered four overdraft fees of {$34.00} each, totaling {$130.00}, bringing the total amount disputed to {$720.00}. 

I fulfilled my obligation as a customer and should not be penalized due to a failed transaction or there agreement with a third-party vendor. It is unacceptable to hold me financially liable for services that were never rendered. 

Thank you

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing the following negative items on my credit report : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  These entries remain unverified and questionable. Despite multiple attempts to have these inaccuracies properly investigated and resolved, no meaningful action has been taken. I have submitted all required documentation and followed up repeatedly, yet the errors persist. This ongoing lack of action has caused undue financial hardship and has significantly affected my well-being. The mental and emotional toll of dealing with these unresolved discrepancies has been overwhelming. 
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a fair and accurate credit report, including the removal of unverifiable or incorrect information. I urge you to take immediate steps to verify and rectify these items, as failure to do so constitutes a violation of my rights under federal law.

Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Portfolio Recovery Associates has contacted my phone an excessive number of times between XXXX and XXXX, despite me not having any confirmed debt with them and previously requesting that they cease communication. These calls typically occur between XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX and often come from various phone numbers, which makes it difficult to block them effectively.

I have no verified connection to the debt theyre calling about, and they have failed to provide written verification of the alleged debt despite repeated requests. I have informed them clearly that they are contacting the wrong person and asked that they stop calling my number.

Here is a list of dates I documented when calls or call attempts occurred : XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX This repeated, unwanted communication has become disruptive and emotionally exhausting. I believe these actions violate the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), which protects consumers from repeated and harassing contact by debt collectors.
