Complaint narrative:
In 2023 I financed a gaming computer through dell financial services. When I received the computer it was not working correctly. After several hours worth of phone calls and trouble shooting with the device I told the tech support team that I didnt want the device and I wanted to send it back. They told they would not accept it and would send a technician out to repair it. That never happened. I called Dell back and asked why the technician did not show up but they did not provide a reason why and scheduled another service appointment. It still did not happen, I called and expressed my grievances and told them I did not want the computer and I was still under warranty but did not want the computer due to how many problems it had. They told me they would not accept it back and refused to repair the computer. I still have the computer and it still does not work, it wont even power on. Now im hoping to get rid of this debt since Dell did not stand up to their side of the contract by providing me with a working device that still does not work and refused to take it back or repair it. This thing still does not work and I would greatly appreciate it if this was removed from my credit report and the debt wiped as I have tried to return the device 4 times and was refused.

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, IA XXXX Subject : Formal Complaint Regarding Improper Credit Reporting by XXXX, and Equifax Dear CFPB, I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against the credit reporting agencies XXXX and Equifax for improper credit reporting practices that violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) requirements. The issue pertains to adverse remarks placed on my credit report by XXXX XXXX, which are maliciously recorded and do not meet the legal standards set forth in the FCRA. 

Specifically, my credit report contains the following remarks from XXXX XXXX : " Charged off as bad debt '' " Charged off account. Account closed by credit grantor '' " Account information disputed by consumer, meets FCRA requirements. '' These statements are inaccurate and misleading, as they do not comply with the FCRA 's definition of what can be reported. According to Section 603, Definitions ; rules of construction [ 15 U.S.C. 1681a ] ( 2 ) Exclusions, the term consumer report does not include any report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report, except as provided in paragraph ( 3 ).

Per business law, the term " transactions '' is defined as events associated with business dealings conducted between two or more parties that involve the formation and performance of an obligation or contract. A " charge-off '' is a transaction related to a contractual obligation between myself, the consumer, and XXXX XXXX XXXX Therefore, reporting this information is a violation of the FCRA, as it pertains solely to the " transactional '' relationship between myself and XXXX XXXX and should not be included in my consumer report. 

I believe that this erroneous reporting is not only a breach of my rights under the FCRA but also has caused unjust harm to my creditworthiness. I respectfully request that the CFPB investigate this matter thoroughly. I also ask that the credit reporting agencies remove these adverse remarks from my credit report in a timely manner to correct these inaccuracies. 

The inaccurate information has negatively impacted my credit score and my ability to secure credit on fair terms. Immediate action to resolve this matter would be appreciated. 

Thank you for your attention to this complaint. I look forward to a prompt response and resolution.
