Complaint narrative:
PLEASE HELP! 

I send a certified letter to XXXX on XX/XX/2022 from the United States Bankruptcy court where it states that they do not report to the credit bureau. I mail this letter allow with a letter to XXXX stating that I never gave them permission 15 USC 1681 ( b ) Permissible purpose. I informed them once all three credit Bureau confirmed that XXXX was indeed where they received the information from that I never gave XXXX any written consent. It has been 30 days and I still have not received any type of documentation from XXXX. I haven't even received the confirmation signature that they received it back. I called them a week ago and the representative inform me that they have received the letter. I received a alert today from XXXX that my Dispute results for my Bankruptcy is complete and that the company has verified it as accurate and that it remains on my consumer credit report. What I am not underling is how can XXXX update a dispute and XXXX still has not responded but to me. Its been over 30 days and by law they supposed to delete the account. I called XXXX and asked what was they provided from XXXX. The Agent kept saying the court provided them with documentation. I feel like I am being bullied by these Credit reporting agencies and XXXX XXXX. They keep telling lies about the Information that they have and where they are getting Information from. I informed the agent that they are required by law to provide me with documentation. The agent kept saying the court provided documentation. I asked to speak to a supervisor and the call was disconnected. As a consumer I have a right to privacy and as a consumer I determine what that privacy is. XXXX is reporting fraudulent to the credit Bureau. I never authorize or gave any written consent to XXXX to report anything on my consumer credit report no consent is identity theft. I feel like as a consumer XXXX has violated my right and continuing tried to bully me. This public record that I didn't consent to report on my consumer credit report is stressing me out and does not reflect my credit worthiness. I am trying to move forward and purchase a home for me and my family and because XXXX continues to report a public record that I didn't consent in written to them is holding me back from moving forward. I really need assistance because I have sent certified letter to the credit bureau and all they do it update it as acute they have yet to send me one piece of documentation that is being provided to them. If I am unable to get any help I will be forced to filed a litigation.

My name is XXXX XXXX and at this time, I will also inform you that XXXX XXXX offices have reported invalidated information to all 3 of the major CRA 's ( XXXX, XXXX or TransUnion ). XXXX XXXX, whom you are furnishing inaccurate and incorrect information to the consumer reporting agencies. The account is charge-off/collection account.

XXXX XXXX and their inaccurate reporting have damaged my livelihood & caused me anxiety. I wrote to XXXX XXXX via certified mail on XX/XX/XXXX, requesting for a Validation and they IGORNED my Debt Validation Request. On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX I wrote to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Chairman and Chief Executive Officer & XXXX XXXX XXXX Vice President and CEO of XXXX XXXX XXXX and I got no response from them either. In my letter I stated they had 10 days to remove the unverified item and again I heard nothing. This is the 2nd time XXXX XXXX ignored my requests. In this complaint I attached a copy of the certified mail receipt along with my debt validation letter that XXXX XXXX ignored. Along with a copy of the email I send to the XXXX XXXX CFO 's that was also ignored. XXXX XXXX has violated my consumer rights, not once but twice! I want XXXX XXXX to stop violating my rights and remove the item from my consumer report. By law the CRA's/ creditors etc has 30 days to complete a 30day investigation, & XXXX XXXX failed to do so. The 30 day mark has come and gone over 4months ago! Therefore XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Trans Union LLC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX by law shall remove the item from my consumer report. There is a laundry list of damages caused upon me from XXXX XXXX & the CRA 's!. 
If any debt collectors, creditors are not able to provide the proper documentation as requested in a Declaration, all collection activity shall CEASE and Desist. 
Overall XXXX XXXX office fails to respond to the validation request within 30 days from the date of my receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file, and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately.

Company: Collection Bureau of the Hudson Valley, Inc.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
Debt collector, COLLECTION BUREAU HUDSON VALLEY sent me notice in the mail to my location information in attempts to collect on an alleged debt that I do not owe. I did not give them consent to contact me and in fact I sent them notice to cease all communication with me in XX/XX/2021 in regards to an alleged debt. They are committing mail fraud by not putting the required notice on the mail that they sent to my location information through the United States Post Office. They are using language and symbols in the mail contents that they sent to me through the US postal services that indicates that they are attempting to collect a debt. They committed identity theft by obtaining my personal private information without my consent as they obtained my information from XXXX XXXX. They are engaging in conduct that is harassing and abusive by using obscene and profane language in the billing notice that they sent me. They are falsely and misleading the amount as to which this alleged debt is because it is a positive balance and a consumer can not pay on a positive balance which is also a billing error. They did not send me written notice within the first 5 days of initial communication with me containing the ( 5 ) notice of debt contents thats required under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g.

Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan — Installment loan
Issue: Getting the loan — 
Company: Affirm Holdings, Inc
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Currently being extorted by Affirm.com for an installment loan they initially approved but did not actually provide for an XXXX order. 

On XX/XX/XXXX Upon placing the order through XXXX with the provided payment details from Affirm.com the provided payment method was immediately declined and upon speaking with representatives from Affirm about resolving this issue I was instructed to cancel the XXXX order, which I did. Therefore no order was sent to me or received by me. 

Now a month later, this still sits in my account as open and they are requesting payment. After an entire month of trying to resolve this issue with Affirm they continue to extort me, for a loan/order that was clearly cancelled and not received. 

I've provided evidence as such to Affirm at their request no less than 5 times now, and continue to be hassled about this.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I've been very patient with the credit reporting agencies in regards to a late payment that is being reported on my credit file which is inaccurate. The late payment from creditor XXXX XXXX was reported in XX/XX/2021. I've reached out to the creditor directly and they've also stated there was no late payment on their end from me. I've reached out to the credit bureaus MANY different times and have either gotten hung up on after waiting on the phone for hours, have been told they haven't received any of my letters, or that the investigation is still under review. This has been an on going thing for months where the bureaus are dragging this out and continuously reporting information that's incorrect on my credit file. I've written multiple letters back when I first noticed the late payment reported, a letter in XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX of this year. Its frustrating knowing that its inaccurate and Im powerless in resolving it. They've been pushing the investigation back for months, giving different answers, or hanging up when I get through to someone. I work 58 hours in a week and getting drained doing this. They've had plenty of time for the investigation. Its been way longer than 60 days! They can not keep taking advantage of me like this. PLEASE HELP!!
