Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, VA, XXXX Date : XX/XX/year> Portfolio Recovery Associates , LLC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, VA XXXX Re : Cease and Desist To Whom It May Concern, I am writing in regard to the above-referenced account. Pursuant to my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 U.S.C. 1692c ( c ), I hereby demand that you cease and desist from all further communication with me in regard to this alleged debt.

Please note the following : 1. You are to stop all telephone calls, letters, emails, or other forms of contact with me immediately.

2. You may only contact me once more to confirm that there will be no further communication or to notify me of any specific legal action you intend to take.

3. Be advised that any further attempts to contact me, other than as permitted by law, will be documented as harassment and reported to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), and my state Attorney Generals office.

This letter is not to be construed as an acknowledgment of the validity of the alleged debt.

Thank you for your cooperation. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX To Whom It May Concern, I am disputing the accuracy of the following information on my credit report : Creditor/Debt Collector : Portfolio Recovery Services LLC Reported Status : Open Revolving Account with Balance Due This information is being reported inaccurately. This is a collection account and can not legally be reported as an open revolving account. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), furnishers are required to report information accurately ( 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ).

By reporting this debt as an open revolving account, the furnisher is misrepresenting the type of account and violating the FCRA. Please conduct a reinvestigation as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ), and either : 1. Correct the reporting to reflect the true nature of the account ( collection account, closed to future charges ), or 2. Delete the account entirely if accurate reporting can not be verified.

Please provide me with the results of your reinvestigation in writing. 

Thank you, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
To whom it may concern, I am writing in urgency requesting support. I recently had a transaction and service error with a company named XXXX XXXX that handles purchases for many in-game services. I have always used my cashapp card to purchase from this digital store for digital bonuses and addons, but recently I was advised to dispute {$100.00} ( purchased on XX/XX/2025 ) with Cashapp due to a bug or glitch within their network that prolonged the transaction. I decided that id want to dispute it but within 2 days after disputing it, the client deposited the addons I purchased so I decided to cancel the dispute with Cashapp but I was then prompted that my dispute has been resolved with Cashapp disregarding my MANY request to cancel whether it was through phone or email. When speaking to a representative about the request to cancel the dispute, they responded with inattentive answers and providing me two different answers whether my dispute is still active or resolved. I understand that it seems beneficial that its resolved in my favor but that error on their end in itself has caused me to lose access to years of work and programming. I want to escalate this as much as possible to have it corrected and the chargeback to be reverted back to the transaction sender XXXX XXXX On the end of the seller, im told that the dispute is still ongoing and that I can dispute it, but cashapp when calling a representative would tell me that its active but has been resolved and didn't provide any clarification. 

Purchase Date : XX/XX/2025 Transaction Amount : {$100.00} Dispute Date : XX/XX/2025 Company Purchased From : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : Cashapp

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute certain negative entries currently listed on my credit report. Despite multiple requests and the submission of all necessary supporting documents, these inaccuracies have not been properly addressed. My repeated follow-ups have been met with little to no action, and the continued presence of these errors has caused significant financial and emotional stress. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the legal right to an accurate and verifiable credit report. I am requesting that you take immediate and thorough steps to investigate and correct these items. Failure to resolve them in a timely manner would constitute a violation of my rights under federal law. 
The most appropriate and fair outcome in this matter is the full removal of the inaccurate negative entries from my credit report. I have made every effort to resolve these discrepancies through the proper channels, yet they continue to go uncorrected. It is both frustrating and deeply discouraging that no meaningful steps have been taken. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) guarantees my right to an accurate credit report, free from unverifiable or incorrect data. Your ongoing inaction not only breaches this legal obligation but has also caused serious financial hardship and emotional distress. I strongly urge you to take prompt and definitive steps to eliminate these harmful items from my credit file.
