As such, this accounts reporting is inaccurate and should be permanently removed from my credit report. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 USC 1681e ( b ), Equifax is required to follow reasonable procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy in consumer reports. Reporting a collection account from an entity not authorized to operate in California constitutes a violation of this standard.

Actions Requested : Proof of Licensing : Provide verifiable proof that XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  are licensed to collect debts in California. 

Remove the Inaccurate Entry : If such proof can not be provided, permanently delete these collection accounts from my credit report. 
Provide Written Confirmation : Send me written confirmation of the accounts removal and an updated copy of my credit report reflecting the correction. 

Enclosed are the following documents for your reference : A copy of my credit report highlighting the disputed Credit Collections account. 
Documentation from the Nationwide Multistate Licensing System showing that Credit Collections is not licensed to collect in California. 

I request that you complete your investigation and provide a response within the 30-day timeframe required under the FCRA. Should you fail to address this matter appropriately, I will escalate my concerns by filing complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and the California Attorney Generals office. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
An account from Midland Credit Management, originally from XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, is reported on my credit file with a balance of {$320.00}. The account is marked as paid off but also shows as " past due '' as of XX/XX/2024. I sent a debt validation request to Midland Credit Management requesting proof of their legal right to collect the debt, a detailed account history, and documentation verifying my obligation to repay. Despite allowing sufficient time for a response, I have not received the requested information. The reporting remains inconsistent and inaccurate, which I believe is unfairly impacting my credit profile.
