Company: Spring Oaks Capital, LLC
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
I have sent written disputes and validation requests to Spring Oaks Capital regarding an alleged debt they claim I owe, totaling {$530.00}, opened around XX/XX/year>. 

The company has failed to provide validation in accordance with the FDCPA and FCRA. They have not supplied any documentation showing : Original signed contract Complete payment history Chain of assignment Forward flow agreement The account continues to report on my credit file despite their failure to validate. I believe it may have also been re-aged, creating misleading information about the date and status of the debt.

I am requesting that this debt be removed from all consumer credit reporting agencies and that CFPB investigate the company 's failure to comply with federal law.

Complaint narrative:
This letter serves as a formal demand for compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) regarding the handling of my credit report. I have requested the following accounts listed below to removed from my credit report due to identity theft. This is my several attempt to resolve this matter. The previous letters have come with XXXX compliance. Your failure to provide verifiable proof and your reliance on generic, non-substantive responses violate federal law and my consumer rights. I will not tolerate these deliberate evasions. 

Despite my repeated disputes, your agency has failed to provide legally required documentation proving the validity of the reported information. Under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), upon receiving a dispute, you are legally required to conduct a meaningful investigation and provide substantive evidence verifying the accuracy of the disputed account. Your boilerplate responses do not meet this legal standard, and your continued negligence constitutes a blatant violation of federal law.

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ), you are required to maintain maximum possible accuracy in consumer credit reports. Your continued reporting of unverified and inaccurate information, despite my multiple disputes, demonstrates reckless disregard for the law and my rights. 
You have 30 days from the date of this letter to provide the following : 1.Actual verification of the disputed accounts, including original documentation from the data furnisher proving the validity of the debtnot generic statements from the creditor or data furnisher.

2.A detailed explanation of the investigation conducted, including the specific steps taken to verify the accuracy of the information.

3.The names, contact information, and job titles of the individuals who handled my dispute.

4.A statement confirming removal of any information that can not be fully verified as per 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ). 

Failure to comply will result in immediate legal action. I am fully prepared to escalate this matter to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and my states Attorney General. Additionally, I will explore all legal avenues, including but not limited to, filing a lawsuit for willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which entitles me to statutory damages, punitive damages, attorney fees, and costs.

The following accounts do not belong to me, as they are fraudulent. The banks have agreed to remove these accounts from my records. Im confused why you still feel theyre reporting accurately. Please see these accounts are fully investigated and VERIFIABLE PROOF IS FORWARED TO ME.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this formal complaint regarding the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) and their reporting of late payments on my mortgage account from XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. 

During that time, I was experiencing documented financial hardship, which XXXX was fully aware of. I communicated my hardship to them directly and sought assistance. As part of my relief process, I was approved for and received help intended to bring my account current and cover the balance I could not afford at the time. 

Despite receiving financial assistance and being in contact with XXXX regarding my situation, they continued to report me as late to the credit bureaus. This action was not only unfair and harmful, but it also appears to violate the following federal consumer protection laws 15 USC 1666b and 15 USC 1681e ( b ). 

XXXX has a legal obligation to ensure that the information it furnishes to the credit reporting agencies is based on reasonable procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy. Reporting me as late during an approved hardship and while grant funds were being applied contradicts this responsibility.
