Company: ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I submitted a formal debt validation request to Midland Credit Management regarding a collection account for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX ). Instead of pausing collection activity as required by FDCPA 809 ( b ), Midland reported the collection to XXXX on XX/XX/year>, while my validation request was still pending. Reporting a collection to a credit bureau is a form of collection activity and this was done illegally.

When I received their validation, it included only a single billing statement and a basic summary, not full legal documentation. Midland has failed to provide : A signed contract or application A full account history with itemized charges A legal chain of assignment from the original creditor Proof they are legally entitled to collect or report this debt Despite failing to validate the debt, they continue to report it on my
credit reports. This violates : FDCPA 809 ( b ) Continuing to collect without validation FDCPA 807 ( 8 ) Misleading credit reporting as a collection tactic

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NH

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this formal complaint regarding Equifax, Transunion, & Experian 's violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 605B and 611, due to their failure to address fraudulent accounts on my credit report despite proper notification and submission of required documentation. I disputed several fraudulent accounts and provided Equifax, Transunion, & Experian with all necessary documents, including a valid identity theft affidavit, proof of address, government-issued ID, and evidence linking me to a data breach. However, Equifax, Transunion & Experian failed to block the disputed items within the four business days required by 605B and instead " verified '' the accounts without disclosing the sources or evidence of verification, violating 611 's mandate for a reasonable reinvestigation and transparency. Their actions contravene established precedent, such as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  which affirm the rights of consumers to accurate reporting and proper investigation of disputes. This pattern of non-compliance with statutory obligations and disregard for the CFPBs 2012 bulletin underscores Equifax, Transunion & Experian 's failure to uphold consumer protections under the FCRA.

Company: Dave Operating, LLC
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/scrub> 2024, I notified Dave ( the company ) in writing that I was revoking authorization for any and all future debits from both my primary bank account and debit card. I clearly stated that I no longer authorized automatic payments or ACH debits, and I referenced my account and both payment methods ( checking account and debit card ). My message was sent to their official support email address. 

Despite this, Dave has refused to confirm the revocation or acknowledge receipt. My bank account and card have since been frozen as a result, because I have no way to ensure they will not attempt additional unauthorized withdrawals. I referenced the relevant section of the Electronic Fund Transfer Act and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau regulations requiring companies to comply with revocation requests. There is no clause in the law allowing companies to ignore a revocation due to their own internal policy. 

By refusing to process my revocation, Dave is violating federal law and putting me at financial risk. This has caused significant stress and limited access to my own funds. I am seeking the CFPBs assistance to ensure Dave immediately processes my revocation request as required by law and blocks all future debits.
