Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally file a complaint against both XXXX and Credit Control LLC for violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and for failing to properly investigate inaccurate information on my credit report.The issue pertains to an account reported as a collection account under XXXX XXXX on my XXXX credit report. Upon reviewing the details, I identified multiple discrepancies and improper handling of the investigation by XXXX : Lack of a Date of First Delinquency : The account does not include a date of first delinquency, which is required by the FCRA. Improper credit classification : XXXX has this listed as a line of credit on my credit report, I never received or initiated aline of credit from XXXX XXXX. Incorrect Creditor Information : The account is reported as a collection account from XXXX XXXX. However, after investigating this matter further by visiting Credit Control LLCs webpage, I found that the agency is attempting to collect on behalf of XXXX XXXX instead of themselves Credit Control LLC. Despite this, XXXX continues to list XXXX XXXX as the creditor, rather than Credit Control LLC, which inaccurately reflects the true status of the account. Balance Discrepancy : The balance shown on my credit report does not match the amount Credit Control LLC is attempting to collect, adding further inaccuracy to the report. In light of these issues, I filed a formal dispute with XXXX over the phone on XX/XX/2024. However, my dispute was closed just 4 days later with XXXX of those days being Saturday and Sunday with the claim that the information meets FCRA requirements, despite the clear violations of accuracy, completeness, and diligence in reporting. XXXX failed to conduct a thorough investigation into my claims. Due to this lack of diligence from XXXX and the violation of my rights as a consumer under the FCRA, I am requesting the following : Immediate deletion of the inaccurate collection account from all of my credit reports. Immediate compensation from both XXXX and Credit Control LLC, XXXX for not conducting a proper investigation and violating my rights and Credit Control LLC for the harm caused by their shear disregard for the law. Both agencies allowing this violation has caused me mental and physical anguish with the failure to properly investigate this matter. If these requests are not met, I will not hesitate to retain legal counsel and pursue further action for damages and the enforcement of my rights under the FCRA. I trust the CFPB will take swift action in addressing this complaint and ensure compliance with consumer protection laws. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response and resolution.Sincerely,
