Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Convergent Resources, Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
This is in reference to complaint submitted to the CFPB : XXXX. This company has failed to provide specific documents and is still within violation of the federal law that governs them as a debt collector. As a natural living person and consumer I am writing in regards to the alleged debt associated with XXXX XXXX account number ending in : XXXX Pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I am requesting that you provide evidence of a forward flow agreement between your agency and the original creditor, and not merely a bill of sale, to establish the validity and legality of the debt in question. This includes documentation that clearly demonstrates that I have knowingly and willingly entered into a contractual agreement with your agency, outlining the terms and conditions of the debt. I have sent multiple complaints about this company violation of federal law. This company is complicit at this point in the federal law that governs and regulate them. They responded with false documents and did not provide proper proof per the law and regulations. As per the Uniform Commercial Code ( UCC ), a credit card is not a negotiable instrument that can be used to collect on a debt. Furthermore, the charge-off of a debt is considered income and reporting it as a debt is a violation of the FDCPA. I am also aware if there is a 1099-C for this alleged debt, it will be illegal for you to continue collecting on it. Therefore, I demand that you delete the account from my credit report and cease all collection efforts immediately. Please provide documentation to confirm that you have ceased all collection efforts and have deleted the account from my credit report. Please note that any failure to comply with this request may result in legal action being taken against your agency. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
XXXX, NC XXXX XX/XX/XXXX RE : Inaccurate Credit Reporting ( 15 USC 1681s2 ) To whom it may concern, I am writing this letter to inform you that I have notified the credit bureaus of misreporting by your company in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. According to which, as the furnisher of the information in question, you have a grave responsibility of maintaining the accuracy of that information. 

The following accounXXXX XXXX XXXX is reporting a balance of {$5600.00} when it is my understanding and reason to believe that because this debt was charged off by you that is was memorialized with a Form 1099C as proof or evidence there of. And that because of that fact, this debt is cancelled and at least should not reflect the balance that is currently showing of XXXX on my consumer file. 

This would indicate inaccurate reporting on your behalf and therefore is a violation of the FCRA by you the furnisher to continue to report this inaccurate information. Especially with the actual knowledge, notice and confirmation of the errors. 

Please provide me with the return of the time and form as prescribed by regulation or the Secretary of my name, my address, my TIN, the date, and amount of the discharged/charged off debt and any other information as prescribed by the Secretary.

If not, then I would demand that the account be removed from my credit report completely to avoid any legal recourse or action on behalf of myself by retained counsel. 

Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter. I look forward to hearing a favorable reply. Please forward any correspondence or changes to my credit report to the address listed above. 

Regards, XXXX XXXX

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
I, have submitted multiple requests to opt out of information sharing with COMENITY BANK, and these requests have been denied and ignored, in violation of my legal rights. 
Timeline of Requests : First Request to COMENITY BANK : Submitted on XX/XX/2024, requesting to opt out of sharing my Credit Account, Transaction, and Non-Public Information. 
CFPB Request : Submitted on XX/XX/2024, following COMENITY BANK 's failure to comply with my initial request. This request was also denied and ignored. 
Legal Rights and Violations : Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : According to 15 USC 1681 section 602 ( a ), consumer reporting agencies must exercise responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and respect for privacy. I have the right to ensure my private information is not shared without my consent.

Privacy Obligations ( 15 USC 6801 ) : Financial institutions must respect the privacy of customers and protect their nonpublic personal information. COMENITY BANK has failed to meet this obligation.

Consumer Consent ( 15 USC 1681 section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) ) : Consumer reporting agencies can only furnish a consumer report with the written consent of the consumer. COMENITY BANK does not have my written consent to share my information.

Nondisclosure Option ( 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) ) : Financial institutions must inform consumers of their right to opt out of sharing nonpublic personal information. COMENITY BANK did not inform me of this right.

Right to Opt Out ( 12 CFR 1016.7 ) : Consumers can exercise the right to opt out at any time. I have formally opted out of COMENITY BANK 's reporting services and sharing of my information.

Conclusion : COMENITY BANK 's denial and ignoring of my opt-out requests and failure to comply with the FCRA and other privacy laws necessitate further action. I have the right to report these violations to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) for a formal investigation.

I am once again requesting COMENITY BANK to honor my rights and process my opt-out request as mandated by law.
