State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Unfortunately, the collection Agency ConServe XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX. Sent me into collection, which I believe was unfair, with all due respect, allow me explain what happened : I was registered in XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX  online classes during the pandemic time in XXXX, but I never actually got to attend any of the classes at XXXX XXXX and decided to go to XXXX XXXX XXXX instead because it was closer to my house. I felt XXXX XXXX was a better fit for me. In this time I was living in XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ). XXXX XXXX sent a laptop and I called the college because I wanted to return the laptop but they didnt accept it. They told me I have to pay for the laptop. 


In this time my single mother had financial hardships, with her being a XXXX XXXX and her XXXX  was closed for COVID-19, also with reduced hours and myself not working also. We absolutely didnt refuse to pay the laptop It was just the circumstances, those times were uncertain and fearful. I am truly sorry for the inconvenience, and I know that this situation is no ones fault but my own. schools closed, businesses closed, many people losing their jobs, houses and their loved ones, The pandemic was a very difficult time. My mom did not stop paying the rent, electricity, water and food. quarantine was two months and it lasted much longer. We don't know how we have survived those difficult times we had during the pandemic. 

I started working last year of XXXX in XXXX and I was finally able to pay the laptop. The laptop is now paid for in full at this moment. My mom called the collection agency and told them that we were going to pay the full amount, with the condition that they remove my name from the 3 agencies ( XXXX, XXXX and XXXX ) and they accepted, but my name still there. My mother and I, are extremely responsible people, and we know the importance of making payments on time, my mother has achieved a good credit score.

Please, I beg you, if you would be willing to make a goodwill gesture and remove the Collection from my credit report. Because it is affecting me, having a better line of credit, applying to rent an apartment and car.

If you are able to execute a goodwill adjustment, I can continue building my credit score and remain in good standing with any company.

Thank you for your consideration and time,

Complaint narrative:
CFPB complaint # XXXX on XX/XX/2022 I sent a copy of my current state drivers license with my correct address to Experian to dispute the inaccurate information on my report.They failed to adopt reasonable procedures to investigate and assure the accuracy of my credit report, as I discovered today multiple addresses that are not mine still being reported after after multiple claims of all information being accurate & verified and me providing proof. Continued inaccurate reporting showed they did not properly investigate any accounts and has left me vulnerable to identity theft. Therefore, the unfair conduct of Experian reporting of any other information that came back as verified is inaccurate and needs to be permanently deleted.
