Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute certain negative entries currently listed on my credit report. Despite multiple requests and the submission of all necessary supporting documents, these inaccuracies have not been properly addressed. My repeated follow-ups have been met with little to no action, and the continued presence of these errors has caused significant financial and emotional stress. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the legal right to an accurate and verifiable credit report. I am requesting that you take immediate and thorough steps to investigate and correct these items. Failure to resolve them in a timely manner would constitute a violation of my rights under federal law.

Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: Resurgent Capital Services L.P.
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because LVNV Funding LLC failed to verify or validate an alleged debt they claimed I owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have sent numerous written requests for validation and disputed this account online multiple times. Despite these repeated requests, LVNV Funding did not provide any valid proof of the debt or a signed contract showing I owe this amount. 

After my complaints and disputes, LVNV Funding deleted the debt from my XXXX credit report indicating they could not verify or validate the account. However, Resurgent Capital Services is now attempting to collect on the same debt, even though it remains in dispute and no valid evidence has been provided. Resurgent claims to be collecting on behalf of LVNV Funding, but I have never signed any agreement with LVNV Funding, XXXX XXXX XXXX, or Resurgent Capital Services regarding this alleged debt. 

This continued collection activity is unlawful under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) because the debt has not been verified or validated. I believe this is an attempt to collect a debt that is inaccurate and potentially invalid.

Company: Credit Corp Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Credit Corp Solutions regarding an alleged debt for a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX credit card, which they are attempting to collect under reference number DT XXXX. I sent a certified dispute and validation request on XX/XX/year>, and the company received it on XX/XX/year> at XXXXXXXX XXXX according to USPS tracking number XXXX. 

Despite this, Credit Corp Solutions has not responded with proper validation, including : No signed contract or e-signature audit trail No itemized accounting of the alleged balance No assignment or bill of sale from the original creditor showing legal authority to collect Additionally, this debt is tied to an address previously flagged for identity theft and removed from all major credit bureaus. The address is : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, GA XXXX They also sent a Pre-Legal Notice dated XX/XX/year>, threatening legal escalation without prior proper notice or validation in violation of FDCPA 1692g ( a ). 

In addition, the alleged account includes the fraudulent address XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, GA, which has been removed from all three major credit bureaus following my FTC Identity Theft Report filed in XX/XX/year>. This proves the account is not mine. 

Credit Corp Solutions responded with a generic letter and billing statements, but failed to provide a signed agreement, chain of title, or full accounting records all of which are required for lawful validation under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Despite my timely dispute and their lack of sufficient response, they continue to furnish this account to Experian. 
As of today, Credit Corp Solutions continues to report this debt without providing proper verification, in violation of the FDCPA and FCRA.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Follow-Up Complaint Regarding Verification of Fraudulent Accounts AND FINAL WARNING FOR INMEDIATE REMOVAL ACCOUNT To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally follow up on my previous complaint regarding the failure of [ EXPERIAN ] to remove fraudulent accounts from my credit report. Despite my submission of a Police Report and an FTC identity theft report ( FTC Report Number : XXXX ), [ EXPERIAN ] has claimed that the disputed accounts have been " verified. '' The following fraudulent accounts remain on my credit report, which I have previously identified as resulting from identity theft : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically : 15 U.S.C. 1681a ( 4 ) : Protects my privacy rights by ensuring that my credit information is accurate and not misrepresented. 
15 U.S.C. 1681b ( 2 ) : Details permissible purposes for accessing my credit report, indicating that only authorized parties can access my information.

15 U.S.C. 1681i : Requires credit reporting agencies to conduct a reasonable investigation when information is disputed. 
Additionally, I am invoking 15 U.S.C. 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( a ) and 15 U.S.C. 609 ( a ) ( 2 ) to request the removal and to demand proof of its verification. Section According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), you are required by federal law to verify, through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract, any and all accounts that you post on a credit report. Otherwise anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail or email in a fraudulent account. 

Furthermore, under 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, credit reporting agencies are mandated to block information identified as resulting from identity theft. The claim of " verification '' does not satisfy these requirements, and it is evident that [ EXPERIAN ] has not conducted a thorough investigation, nor have they taken the appropriate actions to remove this fraudulent information.

I also believe that the actions of [ EXPERIAN ] may constitute a violation of the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), as they have failed to adhere to the obligations concerning accurate reporting and consumer rights.

I request that the CFPB investigate this matter further and take necessary actions to ensure that these accounts are properly deleted from my credit report. I also seek guidance on the steps I can take to protect my rights as a consumer in this situation. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this ongoing issue.

Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing a collection account reported by Portfolio Recovery Associates ( PRA ) on my XXXX, XXXX  XXXX XXXX  credit report, related to an alleged debt from XXXX XXXX. The account shows a balance of {$1700.00}, listed as opened on XX/XX/XXXX, and marked as placed for collection. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a formal debt validation request to Portfolio Recovery Associates, requesting documentation including : a signed contract, full chain of title, proof of assignment from XXXX, and Metro 2-compliant reporting records.

To date, PRA has failed to provide any of the requested legal documentation. They did not send a signed agreement, a proper bill of sale, or any paperwork proving their legal authority to collect or report this debt. 

Despite lacking validation, this account is still being reported as a valid collection, which violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA 1681s-2 ), the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA 1692g ), and Metro 2 compliance standards.

This inaccurate and unverifiable account is damaging my credit and must be removed. I am requesting that this account be deleted from my credit report and that written confirmation be provided regarding the outcome of this complaint.
