Complaint narrative:
There is a debt collection on my credit reports that I have been trying to dispute for many years. Whenever I dispute it with the credit bureau, they tell me that the information is accurate. The negative account is from XXXX XXXX, and it appears as a collection, negatively affecting my account, which in turn is impacting my credit standing with Creditors. I called Experian and Trans Union to try and have it removed, but I haven't had any luck. They said I should contact the trade commission to get it resolved.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Subject Line : Charge-off still reported after debt paid in full and 1099-C issued I opened an Individual Flexible Spending Credit Card on XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  with a {$4400.00} credit limit. The account was closed on XX/XX/XXXX and was reported as charged off for {$3700.00}. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I made the final payment toward the account and also received an IRS Form 1099-C for cancellation of debt. The account now shows a {$0.00} balance and is listed as Paid in full/was a charge-off on my credit report. It was last updated on XX/XX/XXXX. 

Because the account is fully resolved and no balance is owed, I believe continuing to report it with a charge-off status is inaccurate and harmful to my credit history.

Company: Ability Recovery Services, LLC
State: AR

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because multiple accounts are being reported on my credit report by third-party collection companies I have never done business with. The companies are : XXXX XXXX XXXX - {$3300.00} Ability Recovery Services LLC - {$1700.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX - {$490.00} XXXX XXXX - {$260.00} I have no knowledge of these debts, never received any legally required validation notices from these entities, and have no recollection of authorizing them to report to credit bureaus. 
These companies are reporting derogatory information that I believe to be inaccurate, unverifiable, or improperly obtained and furnished. 
Under 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), furnishers of information are required to ensure maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. In addition, 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( a ) of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) requires debt collectors to provide written validation of debt within five days of initial contact.

I have not received any legally compliant debt validation from any of the companies listed above, and I believe these accounts may have been reported without my consent or full legal compliance. These actions have negatively affected my credit standing and may constitute violations of federal consumer protection laws. 
I am requesting a full investigation into these companies ' reporting practices, the origin of the alleged debts, and their failure to provide adequate validation. If they can not provide sufficient evidence, I ask that this be treated as unauthorized or improper reporting and that any damage done to my credit be addressed accordingly.
