Complaint narrative:
This morning, I was completely blindsided when I saw inaccurate accounts listed on my credit report, and I have no idea how they got there. I always check my report, but this time there were errors that seemed to appear out of nowhere. I even refreshed my browser, thinking it might be a mistake, but the incorrect information stayed there. I really hope the documents Ive submitted are reviewed properly so I dont have to keep worrying about this.

I have written THE CREDIT BUREAU & XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX numerous times to exercise my consumer rights of validating the debt that is being reported and affecting my consumer report. Per 15 U.S. Code 1692g - Validation of debts, If the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period described in subsection ( a ) that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, or that the consumer requests the name and address of the original creditor, the debt collector shall cease collection of the debt, or any disputed portion thereof, until the debt collector obtains verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment, or the name and address of the original creditor, and a copy of such verification or judgment, or name and address of the original creditor, is mailed to the consumer by the debt collector I am filing a complaint against THE CREDIT BUREAU AND XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  to dispute the validity of the debt that has continuously been attempted to be collected by me. I have decided to file a complaint expressing my concerns regarding potential violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), specifically under USC 1692g, which governs the validation of debts.

I am well aware of my rights under the FDCPA, and I assert my right to dispute the validity of the alleged debt and to request the verification of this debt as stipulated in USC 1692g. Please consider this letter as a formal dispute and request for validation of the debt. I dispute the debt as follows : XXXX : XXXX REASON : 15 U.S. Code 1692e - False or misleading representation INSTRUCTION : PLEASE REMOVE THIS ACCOUNT FROM MY CREDIT REPORT. YOU ARE VIOLATING 15 U.S. Code 1681e - Compliance procedures Lack of Sufficient Information : Your initial communication this month failed to provide adequate information to enable me to determine the validity of the debt, including the name of the original creditor, the amount owed, and the nature of the debt. Incomplete or Inaccurate Information : The information provided in your subsequent communications has been inconsistent and incomplete, further hindering my ability to assess the legitimacy of the debt.

Issue: Problem when making payments — 
Company: REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Several months ago, I contacted Regions ( formerly Enerbank ) due to a financial hardship to explore a temporary hardship program that could help me bring my account up to date and protect my credit. I enrolled in the program, but it proved unhelpful, as late payments continued to be reported and the payment terms remained the same. Consequently, my financial situation worsened, though I kept making the required payments. 

Since I received no further assistance from Regions, I opted to join a debt consolidation program recommended by my credit union. When Regions reached out to me, I informed them of this decision. However, they contacted me again today, both by phone and email. I reiterated my situation in response to their email. 

In my communication with the Regions employee, I mentioned my experience with their hardship program and explained that it was not effective, which led me to seek help from XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX, the employee I was corresponding with, replied by warning that most debt consolidation companies can harm your credit by waiting for accounts to charge off, and that Regions wont settle for less than the full balance, leading to a negative report for seven years. His response seemed aimed at discouraging me from pursuing this option. 

I clarified that I was aware of the implications he mentioned regarding credit reporting. I explained that I couldnt benefit from their hardship program since the payment and interest rate remained unchanged. I also noted that once the account charges off, I would no longer incur daily interest at the 18 % rate. I expressed my commitment to repaying as much as I could. Additionally, I raised concerns about how Regions had reported this account as a line of credit rather than an installment loan, which significantly impacted my credit score and hindered my ability to refinance with my credit union for better terms. Despite my repeated attempts, I had been unable to get them to report the account accurately. 

XXXX XXXX next response was alarming. He not only threatened to mark my account as " intentional negligence, '' but also stated that Regions would not cooperate with XXXX XXXX and that collections would proceed. Such threats and accusations are abusive ; the FDCPA prohibits debt collectors from making such claims. Although XXXX XXXX isnt a debt collector, he works within the collections division at Regions, and similar standards should apply. Documenting this false claim in my file is unacceptable, and those who operate with deceit and intimidation should not be handling sensitive consumer information.
