Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: Credit Control, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I paid a settled balance of {$250.00} on XX/XX/XXXX after being told by Credit Control , LLC that it would not be reported to the credit bureaus if I paid before a certain date. I followed through and have documentation, including the name of the representative and confirmation number. 

Despite this, Credit Control reported the account to ExperiaXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  in XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX of XXXX even though I paid before that and theyve since told me they no longer service or own the account. I also received a letter from them confirming my full payment. 

Ive called Credit Control multiple times ( records available ) and spoke with their manager, XXXX XXXX, who acknowledged that they reported the account and said she would reach out to XXXX. 

They are refusing to submit a deletion request, instead deflecting to XXXX, which contradicts the fact that they are the ones reporting the debt and are therefore legally responsible under the FCRA for its accuracy and timing. 

I am requesting the immediate removal of this collection account from all credit reports and investigation into the improper reporting of a paid, resolved debt.

Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15. U. S. C. 1681c-2 ) that you, the credit reporting agencys block the information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft, and fraud within four business days of you receiving this complaint. This fraudulent, inaccurate and false information consist of personal credit card accounts, auto loans, personal loans and open end unsecured consumer accounts. These accounts have resulted in several fraudulent hard inquiries and fraudulent collections appearing on my consumer FICO credit report. Ive attached a list of the hard inquiries in question as well as a copy of the consumer FICO credit report maintained by you which shows the said fraudulent items. I do not recognize these accounts, collections and hard inquiries as reported. The aforementioned accounts, collections and hard inquiries appearing on my consumer credit report maintained by you were not opened, made or initiated by me. All of the said accounts, collections and hard inquiries are a result of identity theft, and fraud. I have attached a copy of the FTC identity theft criminal complaint as proof from the US federal trade commission that all of the aforementioned, consumer credit accounts, collections and hard inquiries are in fact a result of identity, theft, and fraud.

Complaint narrative:
I discovered multiple 90-day delinquencies reported on my credit only after receiving a credit monitoring alert from my bank. I had not received any prior notices from the loan servicer and was completely unaware of the delinquency. 

Upon contacting the servicer immediately after being notified by my bank, I learned that all correspondence had been sent to an address I had not lived at for multiple prior residences. The servicer later provided a document acknowledging that all of their mail had been returned undelivered. Despite this, they did not attempt to contact me through my active phone number or explore alternate communication methods. even though my updated addresses appeared on my credit report and in USPS records. 

As soon as I became aware of this issue, I contacted the servicer immediately, updated my information, made a double payment, and set up auto payments above the required minimum that have been withdrawn since. I also submitted a formal letter and all supporting documentation showing that I was never reasonably contacted before negative reporting. 

The servicer responded that the reporting was accurate. They failed to acknowledge the significance of the returned mail or their responsibility to reasonably notify me prior to reporting the delinquency, as required under the FCRA. 

I have an 8 year credit history with 100 % on time payments and excellent credit. These delinquencies have caused severe and unfair damage to my credit profile due to the servicer 's failure to ensure accurate and complete reporting.

Complaint narrative:
I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA.

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

I call PNC customer service and complain that I had not receive a receipt from their ATM machine. The customer service person tried to tell me that I had to request a receipt after each transaction and that their was some selection button on the machine to due so. I was appalled that now I had to due such a thing!

Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated. They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

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.

Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed XXXX payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was XXXX XXXX  I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.
