Complaint narrative:
I have submitted several complaints to all three credit bureaus, the CFPB, the BBB of Michigan and the original creditor in regards to an ongoing dispute. Please see complaint below : I originally purchased a vehicle for a 12-month lease on XX/XX/XXXX. Once the 12-month lease was up, I had the option to either turn the vehicle in and they will bill me the disposition fee or take it out of my original down payment of {$900.00}, or if I still needed the vehicle, I would have to put down another down payment for an additional 12 months. I opted to return the vehicle, which I was informed by the account rep that I had until XX/XX/XXXX to return the car without any additional fees being added. The account rep also informed me that if there was any damage or additional fees ( disposition fee ) that it would be taken out of my initial down payment or I would be billed for whatever amount remained. 
When I returned the vehicle on or about XX/XX/XXXX ( I had purchased another vehicle several days prior ) I was also informed at the dealership upon returning, that if there were any additional fees that were not covered by my initial down payment that I would be billed. 
1 year later, I checked my credit report and the finance company, XXXX XXXX XXXX has recorded a charge off amount of $ XXXXwith a monthly payment of {$78.00} on my on all three credit files ( XXXX , Equifax , XXXX ). 
My agreement was for 12 months with the option to lease again at the end of my 12 months and a monthly payment of {$150.00}. As of XX/XX/XXXX, this company was paid a total of {$7000.00} from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. This vehicle was returned on time with no additional monies owed. In addition, per the lease agreement ( see attached ), the total payments paid at the end of the lease was to be {$4800.00}. Therefore, this lease agreement has been paid in full per the documentation provided. 
Furthermore, I contacted the company in XX/XX/XXXX to ask for my credit report to be adjusted from the amount owed/charged off amount of {$6300.00} to be corrected. The account manager then informed me that the amount that is seen is what was financed and not owed. At this point the finance company is refusing to correct their issue. I am requesting VALIDATION of this account. This means that the creditor is to send me a complete payment history to show that a payment is actually owed. 
I have sent complaints to all three credit bureaus, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and the creditor with on success. Please look into this matter and verify the account as being falsely reported. 

In addition, I have only received handwritten/typed account information stating what is owed. This is not proper VALIDATION, as this information can be from any one of their current or previous customer 's information. XXXX XXXX as also sent back dated emails with previous amount owed. See all attached documents. 
Thanks, XXXX XXXX XXXX
