Complaint narrative:
Resurgent Capital Services L.P, Resurgent Receivables LLC, XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX  are aiding and abetting each other in an attempt to collect a debt from me that i do not owe. I have never done any business with nor have I ever heard of Resurgent Capital Services L.P, Resurgent Receivables LLC, or XXXX XXXX XXXX and I have no contracts with either of them including XXXX XXXX XXXX. Banks are securities transfer agents that only have the power to borrow and exchange. Since you are all attempting to collect an alleged debt for XXXX XXXX XXXX, in order to prove I owe this debt, you must provide the Certificate of Indebtedness. Without providing the Certificate of Indebtedness you can not collect. This kind of activity suggests you are all aiding and abetting each other in committing Securities Fraud. 
Billing statements and consumer credit contracts or agreements are insufficient forms of debt validation and or verification, Pacific Concrete F.C.U v.

You are all currently aiding and abetting one another in committing fraud and extortion. By advertising this alleged debt to me and or any other person by any means, including but not limited to a consumer report, you are all participating in debt collection practices and acting as financial institutions. Advertising this alleged debt, which directly affects my credit score and rating, is an indirect way of helping to collect the amount of the alleged debt from me by coercing payment to you or to XXXX XXXX XXXX. 
If you do not immediately remove this from my consumer report, cease all collection attempts, cease and desist all communication with me, unless it pertains to the removal of this account from my report, I will have no choice but to contact the Attorney Generals Office, The Office of the Comptroller of Currency, The Federal Trade Commission, The Securities Exchange Commission, The IRS Treasury, The Treasury Direct, and the appropriate district court to file a claim of federal charges against you including but not limited to conspiracy, fraud, extortion, and identity theft.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/ I received a confirmation from venmo that a payment was made to XXXX XXXX for {$300.00}. I immediately disputed the payment within 10minutes of receiving notification. I called my bank and put a stop payment on the transaction. Now venmo is sending emails that they didnt approve my dispute and is threatening to send me to collections. This transaction was never authorized and I took every step possible such as notifying Venmo immediately, stopping payment, changing all passwords, and freezing my Venmo account. I do not feel I am responsible for paying back a transaction that I didnt approve and was effectively able to stop on my end. I notified Venmo and feel it was their responsibility to pay this as they paid the scammer after dispute was made.

Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I scheduled an on line payment from my bank ( Citizens Bank ) to my credit card in the amount of {$15000.00} on XX/XX/XXXX to be delivered XX/XX/XXXX ( confirmation # XXXX ). The funds were in my account. I received a letter from the bank stating that they were sending a check for that amount and it would be delivered by the XXXX as scheduled. The payment was delivered on XX/XX/XXXX incurring an interest charge of {$240.00}. I have made several phone calls to Citizens Bank, been put on hold for extended periods of time, made to explain and give all the details of the issue over and over, and spoken to 6 different people over the course of a week. All have admitted that it was the banks error and they would reimburse me. One ( XXXX  ) filed a complaint with their 3rd party payer ( XXXX- case # XXXX ) stating that I would be contacted. I have not been contacted. XXXX, at first said they needed me to participate in a 3 way call with the credit card company. I agreed and told him to initiate it at that time. He immediately backed down on the suggestion and claimed that he and his supervisor ( XXXX XXXX were sending a letter to the credit card company explaining the issue and, if the credit card would not refund the money, the bank would reimburse me the full amount. He assured me that the issue would be resolved by XX/XX/XXXX. It was not. On my last call on XX/XX/XXXX, after over an hour on hold and being transferred 3 times, XXXX stated that there were not many notes in my file and he wanted to escalate this to my tech support. I was put on hold for the third time that day and left to hang there. No one ever took the call and I hung up after 30 minutes. I'm being given the royal run around. The bank made an error and expects me to pay for it. Not at all acceptable. I want the to reimburse me the {$240.00} apologize for the inconvenience theyve put me through.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to request the method of validation and details on how your investigation of my consumer report was conducted for my dispute initiated on XX/XX/2023 and the subsequent response received on XX/XX/2023. According to the FCRA the only way to legally investigate and validate information in a consumer report is to conduct personal interviews with neighbors, friends or associates of the consumer. The federal law explicitly states that you can not use factual information from a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from any consumer reporting agency when the information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer. 
If you followed the law and completed a full, legal, and proper investigation as mentioned above, please send me the names, addresses, phone numbers and documentatation used from each friend, neighbor or associate that you interviewed within 15 days. Under The Fair Credit Reporting Act, Public law 91-506, Title VI, Section 611, Subsection A-D I have the right to request this information. If you can not provide ALL of the requested information within the legally allowed time line, I demand that you honor my dispute request listed below for each item.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to file a formal complaint against XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in relation to a debt in the amount of {$810.00} that was charged off in XXXX but continues to be reported on my credit report as charged off. This ongoing incorrect reporting is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and is negatively impacting my financial situation. 

Despite the debt being charged off by XXXX in XXXX, they continue to report it on a monthly basis as charged off. This continuous reporting not only misrepresents the current status of the debt but also violates the FRCA rules regarding accurate reporting of credit information. The incorrect reporting of this charged-off debt has had a detrimental effect on my financial well-being, making it difficult for me to obtain credit and negatively impacting my credit score. 

Additionally, I want to bring to your attention that I have not received a Form 1099 for this charged-off debt as required by the Internal Revenue Service ( IRS ) regulations. XXXX 's failure to provide this necessary documentation further adds to their noncompliance with relevant laws and regulations. 

In light of these violations, I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau thoroughly investigate this matter and take appropriate action against XXXX. Specifically, I seek the following remedies : 1. Immediate removal of the charged-off debt from my credit report, as it is inaccurately and unfairly reported. 
2. Correction of any negative impact caused by the ongoing incorrect reporting, including the adjustment of interest rates and credit scores.

3. Compensation for any financial losses or damages I have incurred as a result of this inaccurate reporting. 
4. Enforcement of penalties on XXXX for their violation of the FCRA rules and failure to provide a Form 1099 for the charged-off debt. 

I trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will handle this complaint promptly and ensure that justice is served. Attached to this letter are supporting documents, including copies of my credit report showing the ongoing incorrect reporting of the charged-off debt, as well as any relevant correspondence with XXXX. 

Should you require any further information or clarification, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to a swift resolution. 

Sincerely,

Company: U.S. BANCORP

Complaint narrative:
I signed up for a US Bank Silver Business Checking Account in XX/XX/2023 with an advertised {$500.00} Bonus for funding the account and maintaining a {$3000.00} Balance of " New Money '' ( AKA new money, new to this bank account ). I also qualified with the same code for a {$600.00} bonus for opening a payment processing account and making a sale of at least {$50.00} to be direct deposited into the same Business Checking Account. I worked hand in hand with an Agent and clarified all details to make sure all requirements were met and I was assured by my agent XXXX that all requirements were met. I was supposed to receive both of these bonuses within 45-60 days of the account being funded and the payment being processed. It is now beyond that time. I made business decisions factoring in these bonuses and I have left more funds in this account than I wanted to just to let this settle so I could get the bonuses. I would like this {$1100.00} credited to my account immediately. US Bank has not shown themselves as reliable so far because of this situation. 

I've called a few different occasions and it seems every department redirects me to another department supposedly responsible and nobody can give me a definitive answer what is going on and when this is hitting. I have saved receipts and saved correspondence of the entire process and would like this resolved as soon as possible.
