Complaint narrative:
his letter serves as my formal demand under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ) for a complete validation of the debts you claim I owe, associated with the accounts listed above. Despite my prior requests, you have failed to provide sufficient evidence that these debts are mine, which violates my rights as a consumer. You are also violating my rights under 73 P.S. 201-1 et seq. ( XXXX  Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law ) by failing to provide transparency and accountability in your collection practices. 

These items were not authorized by me and constitute a breach of my rights under both federal and state law. Furthermore, your responses to previous disputes have been inadequate and evasive, often suggesting that my communications originate from a credit repair organization, which is untrue. This practice is both misleading and unlawful. 

I am invoking the following legal protections to demand swift and transparent action : Kentucky Consumer Protection Act ( KRS 367.110 et seq. ) - Protects consumers from unfair, false, misleading, or deceptive acts or practices, including inaccurate credit reporting.

Kentucky Fair Credit Reporting Act ( KRS 367.363 et seq. ) - Requires credit reporting agencies to investigate disputes and remove or correct inaccurate information promptly.

Complaint narrative:
In the quiet humdrum of everyday life, a sudden jolt shattered the tranquility : I had become a victim of identity theft. Like a thief in the night, unseen hands had stolen my personal information, plunging me into a bewildering maze of uncertainty. With each fraudulent transaction and unauthorized account, the breach of trust cut deep, leaving me grappling with the unsettling reality of a violated identity. Yet, in the midst of chaos, a glimmer of resilience emerged, a resolve to reclaim what was rightfully mine and restore the harmony stolen by unseen adversaries.

Complaint narrative:
They refunded me multiple unauthorized charges but are refusing to refund all the other charges that were unauthorized by me for the same vendor. The charges were most likely someone from outside my home that knew my venmo information at the time. I would like the amount given, refunded back to me. 

I immediately reported the disputes and canceled my debit card and did all their required steps to report the charges. 

Went refund me some of the charges but refuse the others when they were all from the same vendor?? 

They refuse to fulfill my requests and are dragging it out. I've filed a complaint with the XXXX  for their area and the XXXX  stated they haven't responded. 

Please request they refund the charges which total {$1800.00}.

Company: ACIMA CREDIT, LLC
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
After filing a complaint with the CFPB ( XXXX ), ACIMA responded that the refund had already been processed via check and emailed me the lease-purchase agreement I requested. In their response, ACIMA stated that the refund was requested on XX/XX/XXXX and had already been processed. I just spoke with customer service and the finance people who know say ( today is XX/XX/XXXX ) that the refund was only requested on the XXXX of XXXX ( which conflicts with the response they provided to me via the CFPB ) and it would take 7 business days to gain approval for the check. They stated they had until the XXXX of XXXX. On the XXXX of XXXX, the check will be mailed out and it will take " 25 business days to reach you ''. US Mail does not take 25 business days to reach anyone within the continental United States. Moreover, in their response, they indicated that the original payment method on file was no longer active and that's why they offered a check. I added that method back after I received the response ( the payment method on file was from the same back, but they wanted the other checking account number ). When I told the gentleman in " Resolutions '' that the original method was on the account and since the check still had not been approved, processed, or sent to me, then he could send me the refund via ACH. He told me that the process could not be stopped. Then, once again, he said they couldn't issue the refund via ACH because of the amount ( which is a totally different reason than Acima 's resolutions department stated in their response to the CFPB ). Now, they expect me to wait nearly two months to receive a paper check from them. Every time I call, they change the dates of the refund request, the length of time it takes to process the refund, then add additional steps in a never-ending process meant to delay the refund as long as possible.

I will attach their response to my original complaint. Additionally, they responded to my complaint with the XXXX XXXX XXXX  using the same response letter they used for the response to the CFPB. I will attach that document as well.

Company: Rowland Avenue Management, Inc. A/KA Columbia Debt Recovery, LLC d/b/a Genesis
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I contacted the collection agency around XX/XX/year> to validate this debt. They refused to send over the documents requested. I even reached out to the original creditor to get this information. XXXX handled my dispute and claimed they verified it. This is deceitful tactic. How can one verify the information without the proper paperwork. Neither of the agencies or companies could provide the information. Another issue is that the payment history says I made payments on the debt which is false. I disputed this debt and also on the report it says invalid dates. If the dates is invalid meaning the report with this agency is not 100 % accurate. I am entitled to an accurate report. Which this account thats not mines. I ask the collection agency for the validation of this debt. Where are the original documents. 
XXXX ) I will need to see the contract between you and the original creditor.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
Despite my previous three written requests, the unverified items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. In their responses to my dispute letters, they stated that they have verified the items listed as accurate but failed to send me copies of the documents used to verify these accounts, as per my request.

Their failure to provide these documents indicates that they can not and did not verify any of the disputed accounts as claimed. Furthermore, their failure to delete the disputed accounts that they can not verify after three written requests demonstrates a willful disregard of Federal Law.

Please review the attached letter. Thank you for your assistance.

Complaint narrative:
The detrimental impact of the derogatory rating on my credit report has created a cascade of financial hardships that continue to worsen with each passing day. Most notably, my recent loan application was denied, and my existing credit accounts have been hit with increased interest rates, creating additional financial strain during an already challenging time. This situation has not only affected my immediate financial stability but has also generated significant emotional distress as I watch my carefully built credit standing deteriorate.
