At no time during my visit to XXXX XXXX was I informed by the salesman OR the credit representative. I would have Never agreed to it and I would have just used one of my established credit cards. They were very sneaky in getting me to acquire their card. I just made a XXXX payment and that is All they should expect and then cancel my business with them. Thank you

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/XXXX, I attended the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  ), XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  This seemed like an acceptable arrangement to me. 

However, XXXX terminated my employment for unknown reasons on XX/XX/XXXX, by email. Within minutes of receiving the termination notice, I contacted XXXX XXXXXXXX the driver manager that sent the notice, and asked for the reason for the termination. He never replied. There also was no response from XXXX human resources as to the reason of the termination. 

In the first week of XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX contacted me twice by phone to request I reimburse the company nearly {$6000.00} for training. I asked the first XXXX representative, who identified herself as XXXX, to stop calling me and send the demand for reimbursement in writing as I would respond in writing that I didn't feel I owed the debt. No written demands were received at this time from XXXX. 

The next caller a few days ago identified herself as being from XXXX XXXX in XXXXXXXX XXXX. I informed her that I had already told XXXX that I wanted the demand in writing and not to call. This representative informed me that she could call me because she was from another division of XXXX. Obviously, I don't agree with her assessment of the situation. At any rate, I again informed her to stop telephoning me and send me a demand in writing as I didn't feel I owed nearly {$6000.00} for training. 

A week later, this same person from XXXX XXXX called again. I informed her that a registered letter was sent to the Vice President and General Counsel of XXXX relating my position, objecting to the debt, objecting to any negative report to credit reporting agencies, and demanding XXXX and its agents stop calling, only contacting me in writing. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from XXXX XXXX saying I owed a debt of nearly {$6000.00} for XXXX XXXX XXXX. I responded with a letter providing the reasons for why I didn't feel I owed the debt and objecting to any negative report to credit reporting agencies. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from Lockhart , Morris & Montgomery, a collections agency in XXXXXXXX XXXX again demanding payment for the debt. On XX/XX/XXXX, it appears Lockhart , Morris & Montgomery have reported this debt to credit reporting agencies, resulting in a reduction of my credit score by XXXX, in violation of the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act. 

I feel XXXX XXXX XXXX and Lockhart , Morris & Montgomery are simply engaging in a systematic campaign of harassment in violation of the Fair Debt Collections and Practices Act.

Complaint narrative:
The ITEMS stated below are still reporting on my credit report despite numerous written requests, which is against FCRA. The Bureaus continued to report the unsubstantiated & unverified information despite failing to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC sections 1681i within the time frame required by law, failing to adequately examine the situation by using a third party as their verification source. I've tried to address this directly with 3 Credit Bureaus, but despite my efforts, they have been deliberately neglectful and in violation of federal law. I need this situation to be resolved right away. Please delete the following items from my file : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance : {$450.00} ; XXXX XX/XX/XXXX ; XXXX XXXX
