Complaint narrative:
I am filling this complaint under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) due to the willful noncompliance of the credit bureaus and data furnishers in properly investigating my disputes, as required under 15 U.S.C 1681i and 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ). Despite my repeated submissions of disputes containing sufficient documentation to demonstrate inaccuracies, the credit bureaus have failed to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation and have continued to report incorrect information on my credit report. Furthermore the data furnishers have neglected their legal obligation to investigate the disputed information when notified by the credit bureaus. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau filed a lawsuit against Transunion for it's failure to properly investigate consumer disputes, citing " sham investigations '' and other unlawful practices. These practices, as outlined by the CFPB, include : Conducting inadequate investigations that fail to address consumer disputes properly. Reinserting previously disputed and inaccurate information without explanation. Failing to notify customers about investigation results effectively.

State: TX

Complaint narrative:
To whom this may concern I am disputing a medical debt being collected by XXXX, listed under account number # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I believe this collection is inaccurate, improperly validated, and may violate federal consumer protection laws including the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 
XXXX began collection efforts on a debt that I do not recognize and failed to provide proper validation when requested. I did not receive a detailed, itemized bill or clear documentation showing I owe this debt. Despite this, XXXX has continued to pursue collection and may have reported the account to credit reporting agencies, damaging my credit.

I also have concerns that the original medical service may be subject to protections under the No Surprises Act, such as out-of-network charges for services rendered at an in-network facility without notice or consent.
This raises further concerns about the legitimacy of the amount being collected.

This collection activity may violate : FDCPA 809 ( b ) : No proper validation of the debt was provided after I requested it.

FCRA 623 : Potential inaccurate or unverified credit reporting.

No Surprises Act : Medical billing practices may be in violation if surprise billing occurred. 
I respectfully request that the CFPB investigate this matter and ensure XXXX : Immediately ceases collection activities until proper validation is provided.

Removes or corrects any inaccurate credit reporting related to this account.

Provides a full, itemized breakdown of the charges and verifies their legitimacy.

Reviews whether this billing violates consumer protections under federal law.Under Section 609 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ), I have the right to dispute any inaccurate or incomplete information in my credit report, and I request that you investigate this matter.

Additionally, according to Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), you are required to investigate and correct any inaccurate or misleading information that has been reported to the credit bureaus. I kindly ask that you investigate the disputed entry and remove or correct it.

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing the interest rate of my auto loan with Lendbuzz because the down payment amount listed in my loan contract ( {$8700.00} ) is inaccurate.
