Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX XXXX, Medical Data Systems sent me a settlement offer giving me the opportunity to pay 50 % of the original amount owed ( {$2500.00} ) by XXXX XXXX XXXX ( see Attachment 1 ).

I already called Medical Data Systems on this past Friday ( XXXX XXXX XXXX  ) and informed them that I will be accepting the offer, however, they have countered their own offer and this is unacceptable. Please see attached for the settlement offer letter ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  ) and the most recent letter sent to me ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ).

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 
So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them. List all accounts : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX "

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I pulled a copy of my credit reports and noticed an erroneous account that need to be immediately DELETED. 

CAPITOL ONE has violated my consumer rights clearly outlined in 15 USC 1681.

As a federally protected consumer, I am well aware of my rights and more specifically my RIGHT TO PRIVACY within 15 USC 1681A ( 4 ). 

ACCOUNT IN QUESTION : CAPITOL ONEXXXX XXXX Re : Form 1099-C Cancellation of Debt I am writing to you regarding a matter of utmost concern regarding the inaccurate reporting of a charge-off on my credit report attributed to your agency. Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered a charge-off entry which, according to the IRS, constitutes debt that has been discharged and subsequently utilized for tax benefits by your agency. It has come to my attention that your agency has been unlawfully reporting this information on my credit report, while simultaneously attempting to collect on the debt or maintaining a charged-off status.

As per the guidelines provided by the IRS, such actions amount to tax fraud, a serious offense which I am prepared to report should this matter not be rectified immediately. I hereby exercise my right to demand the immediate removal of this inaccurate information from my credit report. Additionally, I require you to provide me with a copy of the Form 1099-C related to this debt, to be sent to the address provided above or via email at your earliest convenience. 

It is evident that your agency has violated the maximum accuracy standards outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically under 15 USC 1681e ( b ). By reporting information that is demonstrably not 100 % accurate, your agency is in clear violation of federal law. Continuing to report this inaccurate information would only exacerbate the situation and would constitute willful violation of various provisions under 15 USC 1681s-2. Your company is also setting itself up for a civil liability suit under 15 USC 1681n for negligible non-compliance with a possible {$1000.00} expense for each violation as well as a suit under 15 USC 1681o for negligible non-compliance with even higher resolutions. 

Moreover, I have been directed by the IRS to file Form 3949A for illegal tax violations against your company in order to address this matter. I trust that neither you nor your Executive VP would desire to engage in legal proceedings over such blatant transgressions. 

I hereby demand that you take immediate action to notify the credit bureaus to DELETE this erroneous information from my credit report without further delay. 

Failure to comply with this demand will leave me with no choice but to pursue all available legal avenues to ensure my rights are upheld and justice is served.

Complaint narrative:
SLS is actively engaged in avoiding a response to an inquiry made about a change of ownership of the referenced property from my personal name to an LLC which I own. It is my opinion that they intentionally structure their company to discourage consumers from receiving the service they deserve and are obligated to. This was evidenced to me by a response to a written request sent on XX/XX/XXXX - and not responded to until XX/XX/XXXX ... After multiple phone calls, hours spent on hold, their representative XXXX, teller ID XXXX, was intentionally not willing to provide service. I have tried to get an answer to the documentation attached below, and have waited months, their company is borderline fraudulent, and this complaint is an attempt to protect others from their practices.
