Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Resurgent Capital Services L.P.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to file a complaint regarding a collection account that LVNV Funding, LLC has reported on my credit report. This account has been listed for approximately XXXX year and XXXX months. 

I have never conducted any business with LVNV Funding, nor have I received any documentation proving that I owe a debt to them. Despite my attempts to request validation, the company has failed to provide : Any original contract or agreement bearing my signature. 
A date-stamped record proving I opened an account with them. 
Documentation from the original creditor linking me to this alleged debt. 

Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), a debt collector is required to provide validation of a debt upon request. LVNV Fundings failure to produce such documentation is a violation of my consumer rights. 

Because the company has not validated this debt, I am requesting that this account be investigated and removed from my credit reports with all three credit bureaus. This inaccurate reporting is negatively impacting my credit profile and financial opportunities. 

I respectfully ask that the CFPB take appropriate action to ensure LVNV Funding either provides proper validation or ceases all reporting of this unverified account. 

Thank you for your time and assistance in this matter.

Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you, the TransUnion credit reporting agency , block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint. 


I am filing this FTC Identity Theft Affidavit to report fraudulent accounts appearing on my consumer FICO XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion reports which I do not recognize as reported and which are the result of identity theft and fraud. These fraudulent accounts consist of credit a credit card account opened at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXX ; a credit card account opened at XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXX ; a credit card account opened at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXX ; and a personal loan account opened at XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX, XXXX under the account number XXXX. These accounts have resulted in several fraudulent hard inquiries and fraudulent collections appearing on my consumer FICO credit report. I demand that the fraudulent items be removed from my consumer credit reports.

These accounts have resulted in several fraudulent chargeoffs, fraudulent late payments, and fraudulent collections appearing on my consumer FICO credit report. I do not recognize the aforementioned accounts, collections, late payments, or chargeoffs as reported. The aforementioned accounts, collections, and chargeoffs appearing on my consumer credit report maintained by you were not opened, made, or initiated by me. All of the aforementioned accounts, collections, late payments, and charge-offs are the result of identity theft and fraud. I have attached a copy of FTC Identity Theft Criminal Complaint # XXXX as proof from the US Federal Trade Commission that all of the aforementioned consumer credit accounts, collections, and hard inquiries are the result of identity theft and fraud. I demand that the aforementioned fraudulent items be removed from my consumer credit report and that all collection activity related to said items cease pursuant to my rights within the FCRA and FDCPA laws.

State: CA

Complaint narrative:
This complaint is directly linked to my most recent complaint with the CFPB ( Case # XXXX ). When I submitted that case, I mistakenly forgot to include important evidence ( both text and images ). I am now providing this missing information to support my claim. 

These attached photos clearly demonstrate that the deposit issue was already resolved and that U.S. Bank is wrongfully withholding my funds. As shown in the evidence : On XX/XX/XXXX, U.S. Bank added {$500.00} to my account. 
That very same day, XX/XX/XXXX, U.S. Bank deducted the exact same {$500.00}, even though those funds were never available to me from the beginning. 
The screenshots also show the balance before and after the {$500.00} was added and removed, confirming that the deduction came from my own available funds, not from the disputed deposit. 

This proves that the deposit problem had already been addressed, yet my personal funds continue to be withheld without justification. 


As of today, my correct balance is {$700.00}. I am not requesting more, and I am not asking for less. That is the exact amount that belongs to me from my personal funds, and it should have been available all along. 

The transactions are clearly visible in the U.S. Bank application, and I have supporting evidence including photos, screenshots, and a recorded call with a representative. All of this proves that these are my own funds, unrelated to the disputed deposit. 

I only want what is rightfully mine : the {$700.00}. If U.S. Bank continues to withhold my money, I will pursue legal action for both the financial hardship and the wasted time caused by this unjustified withholding. This is my money, and the bank is wrongfully keeping it from me

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint personally and in my own words. I have not authorized any company to submit this on my behalf beyond helping me type and send it. This issue directly affects me. I am submitting this formal complaint against Transunion for repeated and willful violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) in connection with identity theft disputes I have filed. Despite providing TransUnion with a complete FTC Identity Theft Report and supporting documentation, they have failed to block or delete fraudulent accounts from my credit report, as required by law. Specifically, the accounts in question include XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX which the banks confirmed would be removed but remains on my report ; All were identity theft-related and should have been blocked under 1681c-2 of the FCRA. Transunions refusal to act constitutes a violation of 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ), for failing to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation, and 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ), for reinserting accounts without proper notice. These negligent actions have caused me emotional distress, wasted time, and financial harm. For reference and further substantiation, I am attaching a copy of the letter dated XX/XX/year>, which outlines my dispute and legal demand for deletion. This letter serves as formal notice and supports the claims made in this complaint.

Complaint narrative:
When logging into the XXXX XXXX Comenity Website to check my balance, the " Current Balance '' amount on their site did NOT equal the total of transactions listed on their website. I called them 3 times. Got 'disconnected ' twice. 

XX/XX/year> XXXXXXXX XXXX Spoke with a CS rep who could not tell me where the additional amount due came from. After a 40 minute phone call, I was 'disconnected ' while she was 'looking ' for something. 

XX/XX/year> XXXX Called back. Asked for supervisor. Put on hold for 7-8 minutes, then 'disconnected '. 

XX/XX/year> XXXX 42 minute call. Spoke with the person furthest up the command line at the time of call- XXXX. She could not tell me what transactions made up the difference between the " Current Balance '', and the visible posted transactions.

There is a programming ( and CREDIBILITY! ) problem in their system. The posted transactions should total the " Current Balance '' shown on the main page. I suspect this is a software/programming issue, but it appears to be fraud at first glance. And extremely frustrating
when the 'supervisor ' can not even figure it out. How is the consumer supposed to?!?!?

Complaint narrative:
A month ago, I submitted a complaint to these Bureaus, but the incorrect information on my report is still there. I haven't heard back from them, aside from your notification that the company has replied to my complaint. How can I trust that they've properly investigated the inaccuracies? What steps did they take to verify the accounts? This entire situation is really frustrating, especially since it's been over 30 days since I filed my complaint.

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing the a loan opened with GoodLeap in connection with a solar panel contract with XXXX that has not been fulfilled. the contractor XXXX, falsely claimed work was completed and triggered payment from GoodLeap, even though no equipment was delivered or properly installed, and no installation was ever started. 

Despite the repeated calls and no word from XXXX about work and no email, phone number or actively working employee to report to. I contacted GoodLeap to dispute the loan, but they have continued to send me payments notices and have reported the loan to credit bureaus. 

This is an unauthorized debt and fraudulent billing, and I am requesting immediate removal of the loan from my account, a stop to collections a formal investigation and compensation for the inconvenience and stress these companies have caused.

Complaint narrative:
They repossessed my vehicle without first providing me with a required Notice of Default or Right to Cure, violating my state 's consumer protection laws. After repossession, I was never given a Notice of Sale or a Deficiency Balance Notice, which are required under UCC 9-611 and 9-614.

This failure deprived me of my right to redeem the vehicle or understand the amount allegedly owed. The account is also being reported to the credit bureaus inaccurately and without proper documentation, violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 ).

I am demanding a full investigation and the immediate removal of this account from all credit reports due to these violations and failure to follow lawful procedures.
