Complaint narrative:
Hi, XXXX submitting this complaint because TransUnion is reporting a collection account from XXXX XXXX XXXX with account number XXXX and an amount of {$150.00}, but I honestly dont recognize this debt and I never gave authorization for it. 

I never recieved any letter, statement, or validation about this before it appeared on my credit report. Under the FDCPA ( XXXX XXXX. XXXX ), I have the right to ask for validation of the debt, and so far no one has provided me anything proving that this debt is mine or even legit. 

Also, according to the FCRA ( XXXX XXXX. XXXX and XXXX ), I have the right to dispute anything inaccurate or incomplete in my report and request a reinvestigation. I already disputed it and asked for proof, but I havent received any real response or documents. 

I just want to make sure my credit report only shows true and verified info, not something that might not even be mine.

Complaint narrative:
Hi, Im sending this complaint becuz TransUnion is reporting a collection account from XXXX XXXX XXXX with account number XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  for {$180.00}, and I want to say clearly that I never authorized or agreed to this debt. I really dont reconize it and never got any notice or communication before it just showed up on my credit report. 
Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA 15 U.S.C. 1692g ), I asked for validation of the debt, but Ive recieved no proof no contract, no billing statements, no real evidence that this debt belongs to me.

Also, the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681i & 1681g ) gives me the right to dispute anything that is not accurate or fully verified, and to request a reinvestigation. I already sent that dispute and still havent recieved nothing showing this debt is legit or mine. 

Its unfair that something like this affects my credit when it hasnt even been proven.
