Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Complaint Against LVNV Funding LLC Unlicensed Collection Activity in New Jersey and Violations of Federal Consumer Protection Laws To Whom It May Concern, I am filing a formal complaint against LVNV Funding LLC for engaging in unlawful and deceptive debt collection practices in violation of New Jersey state law and federal consumer protection laws including the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), and Regulation F.

LVNV Funding LLC has reported a collection account to TransUnion under their name. I have not received any required validation of this alleged debt, and their actions violate my consumer rights on multiple levels.

Violations of New Jersey State Law Under the New Jersey Consumer Finance Licensing Act ( N.J.S.A. 17:11C-1 et seq. ), debt collectors and debt buyers must be licensed to operate in the state. After thorough review, I find no public record showing that LVNV Funding LLC is licensed to collect debts in New Jersey.

As a result, LVNV is conducting business in violation of New Jersey law and has no legal authority to collect this alleged debt or furnish information to credit bureaus within the state.

Violations of Federal Consumer Laws 1. Failure to Provide Validation 12 CFR 1006.34 ( b ) ( 5 ) LVNV Funding LLC has not provided any required written validation notice about this debt, including information about the original creditor or my rights as a consumer.

2. No Notice of Right to Dispute 12 CFR 1006.34 ( c ) ( 4 ) ( i ) I was never informed of my right to dispute the debt within 30 days, which violates 12 CFR 1006.34 ( c ) ( 4 ) ( i ).

3. Use of False and Misleading Means 15 U.S.C. 1692e Attempting to collect a debt in a state where they are unlicensed is inherently deceptive and violates 15 U.S.C. 1692e.

4. Illegal Furnishing to Credit Bureaus 12 CFR 1006.34 ( d ) & 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 7 ) ( A ) LVNV reported this debt to TransUnion without validating the debt or notifying me. This is a direct violation of : 12 CFR 1006.34 ( d ) Prohibits reporting unvalidated debt 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 7 ) ( A ) Requires notice to consumer before reporting negative information Additional Violations I am also asserting my right to revoke all communication under 15 U.S.C. 1692c ( c ). LVNV Funding LLC is hereby notified that I revoke any and all communication, whether by phone, mail, or electronic means. They must cease all future contact with me.

To do what is fair to me as a consumer, delete and update my credit report as they are reporting inaccurate information that I have made them aware of but still keep reporting! This has caused me multiple denials and mental anguish that I can't even stand. I will not tolerate this anymore and will seek litigation if this is not handled!

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because the credit bureau has continued to report fraudulent accounts resulting from identity theft, despite my formal disputes and submission of supporting documentation ( including an FTC Identity Theft Report ). More seriously, the bureau has reinserted previously deleted fraudulent accounts without the proper certification from furnishers and without providing the required consumer notice, in direct violation of FCRA 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ). This misconduct is not an isolated incident. In fact, credit bureaus were sued late last year for the exact same unlawful practice, demonstrating a broader pattern of disregard for the Fair Credit Reporting Act and consumers ' rights.The bureau has failed to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation under FCRA 611 ( a ) / 15 U.S.C. 1681i, has not provided written verification or original documentation proving the legitimacy of the accounts, and continues to report unverifiable negative information, harming my credit and causing ongoing distress.XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
Bank Of America changed the due date on the card incorrectly several times. After failing multiple times to fix the problem the company promised to refund a late fee, if one comes up.

My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
Ive recently discovered several late payment notations on my credit report that are completely false, and I want to make it clear that I will not tolerate these inaccuracies being used to misjudge my financial character. These harmful entries are dragging down my credit score, affecting my access to opportunities, and putting unnecessary strain on my mental and emotional health. Some of these alleged late payments were in fact made on time, while others may stem from clerical mistakes or internal processing delays that were never communicated to me.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires that every piece of data on a consumer report be factually accurate and verifiable by original documentation. That means if these late payment entries can not be backed up with real, dated billing statements or signed agreements, they should not be reported at all. I am demanding that these entries be immediately corrected or removed, depending on what the documentation proves. If the credit reporting agencies or furnishers continue to ignore this matter, I will interpret that as a willful and deliberate violation of federal lawand respond accordingly. I deserve better, and I will fight until this is made right.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint against XXXX ( Citicards XXXX ) for inaccurate and incomplete credit reporting on my account ( Account # XXXX, opened XX/XX/XXXX ), which violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq. ) and Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA, 15 U.S.C. 1666 ). This reporting has severely damaged my credit scores ( e.g., FICO XXXX scores of XXXX across Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion as XXXX XX/XX/XXXX ) due to reported late payments, a high balance, and a past-due amount, despite my prior disputes. 

Specifically : Inaccurate Late Payments : The account reports late payments ( 3XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX on Experian ), but these are incorrect. I previously disputed billing errors under the XXXX, and my records show timely payments or errors in billing that were not properly credited. The reports note " FCBA dispute resolved - consumer disagrees '' ( or similar on Experian and TransUnion ), indicating XXXX failed to adequately resolve the issue. This violates FCRA 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ), which prohibits furnishers from reporting inaccurate information, and 1681s-2 ( b ), requiring a reasonable investigation upon dispute notice. 

High Balance and Utilization : The reported balance is {$20000.00} ( 109 % of the {$18000.00} limit ) with {$1900.00} past due, but this includes disputed charges or fees from unresolved billing issues. This artificially inflates my credit utilization and triggers " serious delinquency '' flags on my reports, harming my ability to obtain credit. Under CFPB regulations ( XXXX C.F.R. XXXX ), furnishers must ensure reported data is complete and accurate ; this reporting is neither. 

Inconsistencies Across Bureaus : Payment history varies ( e.g., XXXX  shows only up to XXXX XXXX XXXX, Experian shows XXXX XXXX ), suggesting systemic errors in XXXX 's reporting process, in violation of FCRA 1681e ( b ) ( requiring maximum possible accuracy ). 

Prior Actions Taken : I disputed this with XXXX directly under XXXX, but they marked it " resolved '' without addressing my concerns. I have also disputed ( or plan to dispute ) with the credit bureaus ( XXXX, Experian, XXXX  ). Despite this, the inaccuracies persist, causing ongoing harm including denied credit applications, higher interest rates, and emotional distress. 

This appears to violate CFPB supervisory guidance, including XXXX XXXX, which requires furnishers to handle disputes properly and not re-report unverified information. XXXX 's failure to correct these errors demonstrates negligence or willful non-compliance, exposing them to liability under FCRA 1681n and 1681o ( actual, statutory, and punitive damages ).
