Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was result of identity theft
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint regarding XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), who contacted me about an alleged debt connected to American Express ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). I formally disputed this debt in writing on XX/XX/XXXX, and requested full validation under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA XXXX ). I also demanded proof of their authorization to collect debts in the State of Louisiana. 

To date, XXXX has not provided any of the required validation documents, including a signed contract, a full accounting of the debt, or proof of legal authority to collect in my state. Despite this, they continue to pursue collection and have not acknowledged my dispute as required under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA XXXX ). 

Their continued attempts to collect without proper validation or legal authority constitute a clear violation of federal and state consumer protection laws. I respectfully request the CFPB to investigate this matter and take appropriate regulatory action.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because Equifax is continuing to report an inaccurate balance and account status for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, despite clear evidence that the vehicle was paid in full. A bill of sale and final payment receipt from XXXX XXXX XXXX has been provided as proof that this account is no longer owed and should reflect a {$0.00} balance. 

This account was removed by both XXXX  and XXXX  after receiving the same documentation. Equifax has failed to properly investigate or respond under FCRA 611 [ 15 U.S. Code 1681i ], which requires a full reinvestigation when a consumer provides documentation of an inaccuracy. 

Continued reporting of a paid account as unpaid is false, misleading, and damaging to my creditworthiness especially as I am in the process of applying for a mortgage. This inaccuracy is materially impacting my ability to secure housing and violates my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 

I am requesting immediate deletion or full correction of this account with Equifax and a reinvestigation in accordance with FCRA 1681i and 1681e ( b ).

Company: Alliance One, Inc.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
> AllianceOne initiated collection on a XXXX XXXX debt without providing validation as required under XXXX U.S.C. XXXXg. I requested validation, and they failed to produce a signed agreement or breakdown. They continued collection efforts and submitted an inadequate response to the CFPB. Ive included a rebuttal and their letters for review. 
1. AllianceOne Collection Letter XX/XX/XXXX AllianceOne Receivables Management issued a collection notice regarding a XXXX  XXXX account ( ending in XXXX ) with a stated balance of {$3000.00}. This letter included payment offers and instructions despite the lack of any attached or referenced signed agreement or validation documents. The letter also outlined a 30-day dispute period, which does not absolve the collector from its obligation to validate the debt prior to collection activity. 
2. AllianceOne CFPB Response XX/XX/XXXX AllianceOne submitted a letter to the CFPB stating that they were no longer collecting on the account as of XX/XX/XXXX due to XXXX XXXX recall. They claimed that the consumers validation request ( submitted via CFPB on XX/XX/XXXX ) was untimely, and therefore, the FDCPA did not apply. However, this response failed to acknowledge that collection activity had already occurred through their XX/XX/XXXX notice, which included payment demands. The letter also did not address the fact that they never produced validation materials such as a signed contract or itemized debt breakdown. 
3. Consumer Rebuttal Summary XX/XX/XXXX In my response, I argued that AllianceOne began collecting on the debt without properly validating it as required by XXXX U.S.C. XXXXg ( b ). Their attempt to retroactively justify their actions by pointing to the account recall does not relieve them from their obligations while the account was actively under their management. Additionally, I noted that the account still appeared on my XXXX  credit report, contradicting their claim that they did not report the debt. I asked the CFPB to investigate AllianceOne for these violations and to ensure the account is removed and not pursued further.
