Complaint narrative:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Midland Credit Management , Inc. regarding their handling of an alleged debt associated with account number XXXX. Despite multiple attempts to address this matter directly with the company, they have failed to provide the necessary documentation and have violated several provisions of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

The details of my complaint are as follows : Failure to Provide Validation : I have repeatedly requested comprehensive validation of the alleged debt, including signed documents establishing my direct ownership. Midland Credit Management , Inc. has failed to provide this information within the requested timeframe, violating my rights under the FDCPA. 

Unlawful Reporting of Disputed Information : Despite the ongoing dispute and lack of validation, Midland Credit Management , Inc. continues to report the alleged debt to credit bureaus. This is a direct violation of the FCRA, which requires accurate reporting and the cessation of reporting during a dispute. 

Refusal to Cooperate : The company has demonstrated a deliberate refusal to cooperate with my requests, ignoring the urgency of the matter and violating their obligations under federal law. 

Potential Violations of Identity Fraud Protection : Midland Credit Management , Inc. 's failure to adequately verify the legitimacy of the alleged debt may constitute negligent enablement of identity fraud, exposing consumers to potential harm. 

I have made the company aware of my intention to seek legal action, including potential small claims proceedings, and have provided them with a final opportunity to address the matter amicably. However, their continued non-compliance necessitates the involvement of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to ensure the protection of consumer rights. 

Enclosed with this complaint, please find copies of all relevant correspondence, including the letters sent to Midland Credit Management , Inc., highlighting my attempts to resolve this matter directly. 

I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this complaint thoroughly and take appropriate actions to ensure compliance with federal consumer protection laws. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to a prompt resolution. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
