Complaint narrative:
I have contacted Wakefield & Associates in XXXX and XXXX of XXXX. This company placed an invalid debt on my credit report reflecting the year XXXX. I explained to a representative at Wakefield on XX/XX/XXXX, that I do not owe any amount to XXXX XXXX XXXX as of XX/XX/XXXX. After speaking with a representative from XXXX XXXX XXXX, they sent an email to me with in a protected message, along with a statement showing a XXXX balance. I also filed a dispute through XXXX. Wakefield & Associates refuses to remove this invalid debt. The money is not owed which has been verified by XXXX XXXX XXXX. At this time, I am being harassed by Wakefield & Associates. After I filed my dispute with XXXX and uploaded the documentation, I was notified by XXXX that Wakefield & Associates provided a verification letter that the account is accurate. The verification by Wakefield is blatantly false. When I have called Wakefield, the representatives are inappropriate on the phone by saying to me, " it's not my problem your problem. '' This statement is evidence that Wakefield has no intentions of removing this account and the invalid debt out of their office. I believe the company is also engaging in deceptive business practices by scamming Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries, in which I have both benefits for my healthcare needs. Please assist me with this matter and inform Wakefield & Associates of the invalid debt, and inaccurate and unfair debt reporting to credit bureaus.

Complaint narrative:
THIS IS NOT A DISPUTE AND SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AS A DISPUTE. THIS IS A LEGAL DEMAND UNDER THE FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT. 

Ive tried multiple times to resolve this with you. Ive tried disputes, Ive tried fraud reports, Ive even asked for verification of the accounts without compliance from you. Your response is always for me to submit another dispute or to contact the creditor directly. But now that Ive learned what the Federal law states on this issue, and the protections Congress has put in place for me as a Consumer, I am invoking my protections and my rights under the Federal law. 

You BROKE THE LAW. You are furnishing my report without permissible purposes 15USC 1681B. You do not have the legal authority to furnish ANY of the negative items that are on my Consumer report without my permission. 

You dont need specific account numbers as I am referring to ALL NEGATIVE ACCOUNTS AND NEGATIVE REMARKS on my report as well as ALL hard and soft Inquiries not attached to open accounts. 

When I asked your representatives if any of these accounts were verified I was told that the accounts are assumed to be correct because the creditor is furnishing them and you reflect what information they provide you. This is illegal because the only way you can furnish information on my report is if I, as the Consumer, verify them. Any other verification under an Investigative Consumer Report involving a 3rd Party or a Creditor can not include specific factual information about my credit record. 15USC 1681A As a result of you breaking the law and illegally furnishing these negative items on my report, it has caused me mental distress as well as financial hardship. 

In accordance with the law I do not need the accounts verified because I am the only one who can verify them and I never even gave written consent for them to be furnished 15USC 1681A. 

I need all negative items, all negative remarks, all charge offs, and all hard and soft inquires not attached to open accounts removed immediately. If this Consumer report is not brought into compliance within XXXX days I will be forwarding this important issue to the Attorney Generals Office. 

I have attached screenshots of the specific laws aforementioned for your records.

This is not a duplicate nor is this complaint filed by a third party. I am filing this complaint myself. Please see this complaint is processed to the letter of the law. I am tired of sending dispute letters to Transunion requesting that they correct this erroneous account being reported on my Credit File because they have been doing nothing! This complaint is to follow up my previous complaints and letters I submitted on XX/XX/XXXX and to inform them that I am halfway of taking legal action and sue Transunion for their willful non-compliance of the FCRA statute. Only if they chose to update and correct the account on my Credit report, then I may stop filing lawsuits against Credit reporting agencies. The account that should be corrected is : XXXXXXXX XXXX  XXXX Date XXXX Balance : $ XXXX Late Date XX/XX/XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I have been submitting multiple letters from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX with complete attachments of my personal information and credit reports. Nevertheless, the requests I have sent out were consciously denied and neglected which I considered being unprofessional on the Bureaus end. This will be my last attempt to request all documents to be provided and issued to me. Not fulfilling with my request should result to immediate removal of the unauthorized inquiries listed below : XXXX. XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX XXXX. XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX. These Inquiries resulted from the theft of my identity therefore, these inquiries must be removed from my Credit File. Thank you and I am expecting an immediate action with regards to the continuous issue that I am raising.
