Complaint narrative:
I have been notified that these accounts have been verified accounts on my credit report. Despite my initial dispute, the items listed below remain on my credit report, negatively impacting my creditworthiness : * XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, Balance : {$1000.00}, Opened : XX/XX/XXXX * XXXX XXXX  - XXXX, Balance : {$620.00}, Opened : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Balance : {$1700.00}, Opened : XX/XX/XXXX These accounts were previously disputed based on my belief that they contain inaccuracies, and despite the guidelines outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), you have failed to adhere to the regulations. According to the FCRA, it is mandatory for credit reporting agencies to provide consumers with a fair and accurate summary of their credit history. 
Upon reviewing my credit report, it has become evident that the continued presence of these accounts is not only damaging my credit score but is also in violation of the following sections of the FCRA : * Section 611 - Procedure in case of disputed accuracy * Section 623 - Responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies I demand that Experian/TransUnion immediately remove the aforementioned collection accounts from my credit report, as they have failed to provide evidence of the accuracy of these items within the required time frame, thereby violating my rights under the FCRA. Additionally, I request that you provide written documentation of the removal of these accounts from my credit report within thirty ( 30 ) days of the receipt of this letter.

If you fail to comply with my request, I will have no choice but to seek legal counsel and file a formal complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) as well as pursue further legal actions in accordance with the FCRA and other applicable laws.

Please provide a written confirmation of the receipt of this letter and the subsequent actions taken at your earliest convenience.

Complaint narrative:
I am a small business owner & purchased these items for resale. I typically dont make purchases this big, so it was easy to identify once I did research. Initially, I was not aware of the transactions because the name of the company and where the payment was made are under different names, which prompted me to believe that this is/was not a legitimate company. The name of the company is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, however thats not whats reflected on my statement. The items were set to arrive within XXXX business days via XXXX after XXXX paid in full on XX/XX/06, according to the merchant. If you look at the invoice provided, you will see what items were purchased. The list is lengthy. Its been reattached for your records. After the payment for the initial order was made on XX/XX/06, upon which XXXX systems and accessories were to ship, the merchant demanded more money for the items than what was agreed upon in the initial contract, which can be seen in the screenshot, and threatened that items would not be sent if payment was not received. XXXX, a representative of said company also added more items as an incentive to purchase more, which is what the screenshot is detailing. The initial order was only for XXXX systems with accessories in the amount of {$1300.00}. I ended up purchasing, or so I thought, XXXX systems, plus games, headsets, and controllers to alleviate the shipping cost of the original order under the guise that more items shipped means cheaper shipping for the company as they are a wholesale supplier and to also not lose my initial {$1300.00} payment. That brought the order to {$2600.00} as detailed in the invoice attached. I never received anything & was advised that my items would be ransomed if another {$1200.00} payment wasnt made within XXXX days to finalize shipment, which was supposed to be free based on the purchase of more items. I attempted to contact the merchant for a refund after the first payment of {$1300.00}, and was advised I wouldnt be refunded anything & would lose my money unless I completed the transaction totaling {$2600.00}, so I continued to send more money to complete the transaction totaling {$2600.00} in full for XXXX systems and accessories. Again, I never received the items. You can also see that the address & information on the invoice reflects what you all have on file and is correct. So there isnt a possibility that the items were delivered to the wrong address. Please help me. This company isnt a real company, yet is a scam promising amazing products for unbelievable prices to unsuspecting people. Thank you!
