Complaint narrative:
I am writing to urgently request the removal of a fraudulent account from my credit report under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2. This account was opened fraudulently in my name without my consent. According to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, once a fraud alert or identity theft report is received, the credit bureau should take prompt action. As this fraudulent account is causing significant harm to my credit profile, I request its removal within 4 days, in line with the urgency typically required for such cases.. Under 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 when a consumer submits an identity theft report, credit reporting agencies must block any information identified by the consumer as resulting from identity theft within XXXX business days.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( XXXX ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Complaint Against Credit Acceptance Corporation and XXXX XXXX for Unfair Lending Practices and Predatory Sales Tactics Dear CFPB Representative, I am filing a formal complaint against Credit Acceptance Corporation and XXXX XXXX in XXXX, Alabama, regarding the unfair and predatory lending practices that I was subjected to during the purchase of a 2022 Used XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/year>. My experience, as detailed below, highlights serious concerns about the business practices employed by these entities, which I believe are in direct violation of consumer protection laws. 

XXXX. Unfair Lending Practices and Hidden Costs : During the sales process, XXXX XXXX, in collaboration with Credit Acceptance Corporation, pushed me into a high-cost loan with an Annual Percentage Rate ( APR ) XXXX  % that far exceeds state usury caps. I was not adequately informed of the true cost of the loan, including hidden interest rates and surreptitiously added products. The contract included add-on products and services, such as a service contract with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX which I did not request, authorize, or fully understand at the time of signing. 

XXXX. Manipulation of Loan Terms Through Complicated Algorithms : It has come to my attention that Credit Acceptance employs sophisticated algorithms to determine how much it can collect from borrowers like me, leading to the offering of loans that are structured to yield high profits for the company, regardless of the borrower 's ability to repay. This approach results in predatory loans that trap buyers in unfavorable financial situations. I believe this was the case with my loan, as the terms and interest rates were significantly worse than what was verbally assured during the sales negotiation. 

XXXX. Predatory Sales Tactics : The sales representatives at XXXX XXXX engaged in deceptive practices by pushing me into a loan that I could not reasonably afford, given my financial situation at the time. I was promised favorable loan terms that were not honored in the final contract. Additionally, I was not given a full and transparent explanation of the loan terms, which led to confusion and a lack of informed consent on my part. 
XXXX. Violation of Consumer Protection Laws : The practices described above constitute violations of federal and state consumer protection laws. I believe that Credit Acceptance Corporation and XXXX XXXX have knowingly engaged in unfair, deceptive, and abusive practices to trap consumers like me into high-cost loans with hidden fees and unfavorable terms. 
Resolution Sought : I request that the CFPB conduct a thorough investigation into the practices of Credit Acceptance Corporation and XXXX XXXX. I also seek the following remedies :.

Complaint narrative:
To whom it may concern : The right to contest my credit report is something that every American has. In accordance with the FCRA Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( l ) ), I am exercising this privilege. I understand the nature of these proceedings - it's not just about whether or how much money was owed ( although we will explore both ), but also what kind of debt load can have on your life if they're left unchecked! The report-ability of any derogatory and or delinquent act is often times questionable. I challenge this notion as I do not believe in reporting something unless there's factual documented proof to support it. You must report compliantly and accurately per federal and applicable reporting laws of my state. It is unlawful and unethical to retain any information which you know or should know does not comply with regulations.This letter to you serves as a wake-up call to you to ensure that all data with my credit report is factual and in compliance with XXXX XXXX format reporting standards. I request that you validate with physical ( in writing to me as a response ) verifiable proof of permissible purpose for any of the alleged delinquent/derogatory accounts allegations of inquiry ( ies ) .Thankfully, I'm giving you XXXX  days to complete your investigation into the validity of this claim. If it's current and compliant with regulations then we'll leave things as they are ; but if not - well... I demand that you remove them from reporting ( my credit report ) immediately.I request that you send me physical documents proving your action ( s ) and my updated personal credit report following any correction ( s ). The following items appear questionable in reporting! Please ensure that each item below is accurate, reporting compliantly, completed and timely being reported or DELETE immediately :

Complaint narrative:
I submitted a dispute with Experian a couple months ago and they have not given me the investigation results or any correspondence in response to my dispute. The dispute was about a XXXX XXXXXXXX account that I believe was reporting incorrectly. I do not know how to expertly read a consumer report so I am requesting that Experian ensure that all fields are accurate, complete, and verifiable. In my dispute I mentioned that the furnisher did not give me a written notice stating that they will furnish negative information and that I want the them to request from the furnisher proof that they have provided me that information. Please see attached. Additionally, the account is closed but it is reporting on a monthly basis which is inaccurate and incomplete. The Experian legend has a closed legend status and it shows that the account is closed but a closed account can not continue to report.

Firstly, I want to state that I have never given written consent to furnish my personal information or obtain my information from any source. As such, their reporting of this collection account is in violation of the FCRA.
