Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX beginning has been communicating with a person other than myself, as seen in the attachment they sent me. Instead of communicating with the consumer/natural person, who is myself, they have been communicating with the organization having the shared name as me. This is a violation of 15 USC 1692c ( b ), for I, the consumer, never gave consent. It also is an infringement on my right to privacy as the consumer. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX they honor my cease and desist but not my remedy? These are not separate, and the fact that they are attempting to separate them and think that I would not recognize it is laughable. The cease and desist was sent for them to stop the illegal activity they are doing. I mentioned the remedy for the injury they caused, which was illegal. Them honoring the cease and desist is direct proof that they are in the wrong. As the consumer and the creditor, I invoke the specified remedy under 15 USC 1692c ( c ).

Their so-called validation sent to me failed to meet all 5 requirements under 15 USC 1692g , which means they are in another violation. A bill of particulars is attached. An original writing, recording, and photograph are required in order to prove its content. We both know that bill statements are not mentioned as validation, according to congress. Bill statements with the name of my organization on them are nothing but receipts, proving that XXXX ( the debt collector ) was credited for the transaction already through me, the original creditor. I told XXXX to feel free to attempt to provide a verification proving where else the credit originated. I also told XXXX to providXXXX me with the name and address of the original creditor.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2023 I sent out 3 letters to each credit bureau, XXXX, XXXX and Transunion. I requested to have 3 particular accounts removed from my credit report, since they were not reporting 100 % accurate information. I made it clear that, reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information. 

I requested that the information be investigated and DELETED if not fully validated and that I wanted to be provided with proof of the alleged items, especifically the contract/terms with my wet signature. 

I received a response only from Transunion and XXXX bureau, but not XXXX. 

XXXX and Transunion provided me with feedback within 30 days, but failed to provide me with the verification and proof of their investigations. 

On XX/XX/2023 I sent out a second round of letters to each credit bureau in hopes of being provided with a full description of the investigated task of my disputes. I also sent 3 more follow up letters on XXXX XXXX XXXX 

I mentioned that sending out a generic form through the e-Oscar system for the dispute is not reasonable, and that I wanted a full validated investigation with details on how you verified this ( names of people you spoke with and contact numbers ). 

However, I never received a response from neither credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX or Transunion ). I have not received a response in over 30 Days.
