They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out.

Complaint narrative:
Please ensure that my credit file is not confused with individuals who share a similar name, address, or SSN. It is imperative to verify all identifying information thoroughly. All claims, regardless of their validity, must be substantiated as currently and completely true, correct, and timely.

Per the laws and requisite reporting standards, any entity found in violation of my rights will be subject to legal action. Should you persist in retaining and/or reporting any deceptive allegations even after my submission of a formal consumer complaint, you are hereby instructed to promptly remove any and all unsubstantiated claims from my credit report.

Please conduct a thorough investigation within the next four days and ensure that my credit file is accurate, complete, and compliant with all relevant regulations. Your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciated.

State: MT

Complaint narrative:
I want to make it clear that making empty threats of legal action is illegal. I am genuinely considering taking legal steps against your company for failing to address the inaccuracies in my personal credit profile despite my repeated requests. According to my understanding of the law, you are obligated to investigate and rectify any incorrect information upon request, which you have consistently disregarded. That is a crystal a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act which provides a cause of action for an individual consumer as well as penalties and liabilities for both consumer reporting agencies and furnishers of information for non-compliance as a violation of its provisions.

As I stated before, this is my final request for you to do as you are governed by the FCRA. If this the final request does not prompt you to conduct a proper investigation of the account in question, I will be forced to file suit against your company in the county in which I live. That way, you can travel here in order to defend yourselves. XXXX XXXX.

Company: Source Receivables Management LLC
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Unlawful Credit Reporting and Demand for Action In Accordance with Ohio FCRA Identity Theft Fraud Laws Dear SOURCE RECEIVABLES MNG, I am reaching out to address a serious breach concerning the unauthorized dissemination of my personal information to credit reporting agencies, in direct violation of Ohio 's Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) statutes pertaining to identity theft, as well as other pertinent laws.

It has come to my attention that SOURCE RECEIVABLES MNG has been reporting information to my credit file without procuring my explicit consent. According to Ohio FCRA identity theft fraud laws, particularly sections XXXX, this action constitutes a flagrant infringement on my rights. 

Moreover, Ohio FCRA mandates that consumer consent is imperative for any such reporting activities, as outlined in section XXXX. The failure to obtain my explicit permission prior to reporting is a clear transgression of state law. 

I assert unequivocally that I have not granted SOURCE RECEIVABLES MNG permission to disseminate any information to my credit report. This glaring lack of consent represents a direct violation of my rights and could potentially harm my creditworthiness.

Therefore, I demand that SOURCE RECEIVABLES MNG cease all further reporting of my information to credit agencies without my explicit consent, as mandated by Ohio FCRA identity theft fraud laws. Failure to comply within a 30-day period will be considered willful noncompliance and will be met with appropriate legal action, including penalties under Ohio state laws.

It is imperative to understand that obtaining consent is not optional but a legal requirement under Ohio FCRA identity theft fraud laws. This is not a negotiation ; it is a demand for adherence to both state and federal regulations, which safeguard consumers like myself from unauthorized and damaging credit reporting practices.

I expect immediate action on this matter from SOURCE RECEIVABLES MNG, demonstrating compliance with Ohio FCRA identity theft fraud laws and rectification of these unlawful actions.

This communication is made in good faith, with the expectation of prompt resolution.
