Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action — Threatened or suggested your credit would be damaged
Company: Resurgent Capital Services L.P.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Resurgent Receivables LLC has been found to have violated the FDCPA ( Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ) by erroneously reporting a COLLECTION/CHARGE OFF on my XXXX credit report on XX/XX/XXXX, with a claimed account balance of {$590.00}. They also reported the same fraudulent information on my XXXX report on XX/XX/XXXX, stating that the original creditor was XXXX XXXX. It is important to note that my XXXX report from XX/XX/XXXX, clearly showed the account as " Paid, Closed/Never late '' to XXXX XXXX XXXX ( See attachment ). Despite this, Resurgent Receivables persistently continues to report a debt on my credit report that I do not owe, which can only be seen as a form of harassment. I want to emphasize that I have never entered into any contractual agreement with Resurgent Receivables that would grant them permission to include such information on my credit report. Furthermore, it should be noted that a charge-off is considered a certificate of indebtedness, which means it should be removed from my credit reports. 

As a result of Resurgent Receivables ' actions, legal proceedings are currently underway against them for Violation of the Fair Debt Collections Act and Defamation of Character. 

The collector is surely aware of the severe consequences that come with violating the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, as well as the numerous violations for which they are now accountable. 

Allow me to highlight a few of these violations for you : 1. FDCPA 805. Communication in connection with debt collection [ 15USC1692c ] ( c ) Ceasing Communication 2. FDCPA 809. Validation of debts [ 15 USC 1692g ] 3. FDCPA 813. Civil liability [ 15 USC 1692k ] ( a ) With the exception of the provisions stated in this section, any debt collector who fails to comply with any provision of this title is liable to the affected individual for an amount equal to the actual damages incurred as a result of such failure, and in the case of an individual, the court may also award additional damages, not exceeding {$1000.00}.

It is worth mentioning that I have not provided any proof of the alleged debt under the doctrine of estoppel by silence, as established in XXXX v XXXX ( Mo ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Therefore, it can be reasonably assumed that no evidence of the alleged debt, and consequently, the debt itself, actually exists.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: Atlanticus Services Corporation
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have tried to reach out to Fortiva on numerous occasions to resolve the issue of them continually being malicious and unethical in an effort to keep reporting negative information on my credit reports in addition to not providing a 1099-C if it is truly a charge-off. 

They are reporting a charge off with a date of XX/XX/XXXX, however when I requested a 1099-C on or around XX/XX/XXXX via written correspondence, I did not receive a response. 

When I previously tried to contact them on or around XX/XX/XXXX I was advised by their representative XXXX that they no longer handled my account and the Power of Attorney was XXXX XXXX. I tried to reach out to XXXX XXXX, however there was no response. 

On or around XX/XX/XXXX there was no reporting of Fortiva on my XXXX credit report as I also reconfirmed that with a representative on or around XXXX XXXX that confirmed it was not listed. As of current not only do I have one entry, but two entries for the same account with different erroneous information listed, which conveniently showed up after me reaching out to them. I now have duplicate negative accounts. In addition, they sent me an email advising that the account had NOT been cancelled or forgiven for tax purposes. I find that to be contradictory and making false statements to benefit tax wise. I have provided documents to support my claims. 

I am also receiving collection calls. If the statute of limitations to collecting a debt in California is 4 years then why are they still trying to indirectly trying to still collect? 

Fortiva is also reporting a 4 month term, which anyone can see is inconsistent with the payment history. If it was a 4 month term then why would there be a history of payments over several years and not considered past due from XXXX. 

I am handicapped and the stress is overwhelming with all of the new updates that keep occuring. I tried to dispute with XXXX, however because they have a dedicated relationship to Fortiva they responded to my individual dispute with them within one day and did not investigate my specific dispute and overrode it with whatever Fortiva submitted. XXXX has the same relationship and now is in violation as well for not fully investigating my dispute and now reinserting the account as a duplicate. 

Fortiva has continually violated the FCRA by : -Ignoring document/investigation requests -Willfully and recklessy reporting false info to the credit bureaus after being notified of the reporting errs and failing to investigate or correct the error, including inaccurate remarks -Reporting a new ( duplicate ) account information after receiving notice of dispute on the old account.

Company: LOBEL FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: OK

Complaint narrative:
I was going through a divorce and needed a vehicle, no credit, not great credit. Went to a buy here pay here lot, was only in business a total of like 6 mos-year. Approved me for a car but then said they couldn't do it, transfered the car and myself to a complete different lot in a different city, said I was approved, Lobel financial. Had me driving the car for nearly 3-4 months before I got the actual contract and everything signed. I had to have a vehicle so my hands were tied.lobel financial was extremely shady, no truth to payments. I let the car get repossessed. I have disputed it for years on my credit and the Burroughs will not truly investigate. The loan amount gets higher and higher on the credit report. It's just a scam that I can't do anything about. We get stuck in a credit rutt from shady loan companies that take advantage of low credit credit scores, and it's impossible to get out of it. I have wanted to take bankruptcy for years but always try to fix my credit and just end up making it worse. The Burroughs are worse than the preditory lenders because they know most of us don't know how to fight back, or where to turn for help. There's more to the whole thing however I just found this sight and decided to see what could be done.

Complaint narrative:
According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC 1681 section 602 a states " There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. '' XXXX XXXX, Equifax and XXXX are consumer reporting agencies, and I am the Consumer. I have the right to make sure my private information isn't shared which is backed by 15 USC 6801 which states It is the policy of the Congress that each financial institution has an affirmative and continuing obligation to respect the privacy of its customers and to protect the security and confidentiality of those customers nonpublic personal XXXX XXXX is a financial institution by definition under that title. 15 USC 1681 section 604 a section 2 states that " In general Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : in accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. '' XXXX XXXX the financial institution and the Consumer reporting agencies XXXX XXXX, Equifax and XXXX do not have my consent to furnish this information and they surely do not have my written consent.
