Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
Recently, upon reviewing my credit report, I identified several billing errors in violation of 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( b ) regarding billing errors, specifically : ( 4 ) The creditors failure to accurately reflect a payment made by the obligor or a credit issued to the obligor on a statement. ( 5 ) A computational or accounting error made by the creditor on a statement. Additionally, I did not receive any notification or statement 21 days prior, as required, meaning no late payments should have been reported for these accounts. I am requesting hard, verifiable proof from the creditors bank records showing that I failed to make the payments that were marked as late, as this appears to be a clear billing error. As a consumer, I have legal rights under the law, and these accounts must be updated or removed immediately. Failure to do so will result in my seeking monetary damages for the violation of my rights under XXXX5 USC 1681n ( civil liability ).

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Dear Experian, I am writing to dispute the collection account reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX that appears on my Experian credit report. I have checked with XXXX  and XXXX, and neither of these credit bureaus show this collection account on their records. They have also sent letters in the mail stating they have no record of this collection and asked to verify my identity because of it. This discrepancy raises serious concerns regarding the accuracy of the information being reported by Experian, as required under the **Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) **.

1. **Violation of FCRA - Reporting Inaccurate Information** Under **15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) **, credit reporting agencies are required to follow reasonable procedures to ensure maximum accuracy of the information in consumers ' credit reports. Experian 's reporting of a collection account that is not reported by XXXX or XXXX calls into question whether such procedures were followed. 

XXXX. **Violation of FDCPA - Failure to Validate Debt** Under **15 U.S.C. 1692g** of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I have not received a proper debt validation notice or assignment contract from the collection agency, as required. This collection account has not been validated, and it is a violation for the collection agency to report this debt to any credit bureau without providing proper validation to me first.

Request for Resolution : I respectfully request that Experian take the following actions immediately : 1. **Remove the Collection Account** : Given that this account is not appearing on XXXX or XXXX and XXXX validation of the debt has been provided to me, I request that the collection account be removed from my Experian credit report. Although, I am requesting additional verification from both XXXX and XXXX as well. 

2. **Conduct a Thorough Investigation** : As required under **15 U.S.C. 1681i**, Experian must conduct an investigation into the accuracy of the information being reported. If this information is found to be inaccurate or unverifiable, it must be corrected or removed from my credit report immediately.

3. **Notify Me of the Results** : I request to be notified of the results of your investigation and provided with an updated credit report reflecting any changes. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Company: CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I surrendered this vehicle over to the company CREDIT ACCEPTANCE in XX/XX/year>. 

Since then, the company has continuously reported on my credit monthly as though the account is still open. 

The ending balance sent to my by CREDIT ACCEPTANCE is {$15000.00}. 
The most recent balance reported shows as {$16000.00}. They increase the balance every month, for an account that has been closed via voluntary repossession. 

The account is also reporting as an open account on my XXXX report. 

CREDIT ACCEPTANCE sold me the car at an extremely high interest rate, making it difficult to pay the loan off. After over a year of paying a never ending balance, I surrendered the car, yet CREDIT ACCEPTANCE is still tormenting me.
