Consumer complaint received 2023-01-07 00:00:00
Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: National Credit Adjusters, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
NATIONAL CREDIT ADJUSTERS XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, KS XXXX Subject : COLLECTION/LATE PAYMENT RE : Partial Account Number : XXXX. 

To whom it may concern, I am aware that the FCRA allows for creditors and debt collectors to report to the Consumer Reporting Agencies however these reports have to be compliant and accurate at all times. My concern with the above mentioned account is this. It is reported on my consumer report that this alleged debt is in collections. However, based on the notice of late payment required to be given to a consumer by the FCRA, I did not receive a late notice within five ( 5 ) business days nor was notified that NATIONAL CREDIT ADJUSTERS LLC will be putting a negative remark on my consumer report. 

Also, based on the Fair Credit Billing Act, NATIONAL CREDIT ADJUSTERS LLC failed to provide me an up to date balance during the month ( s ) that this alleged debt was reported as late so how am I able to make sure the balance was not modified or misrepresented during that time causing a calculated error and in turn, caused the account to be late? How do I know that surcharges were not billed by mistake and that you were accurate while reporting? Can you please provide me with these details. 

Again, according to the FCRA, all creditors and debt collectors MUST be compliant and accurate when reporting and I feel that NATIONAL CREDIT ADJUSTERS LLC failed in doing so. This account is inaccurate and NATIONAL CREDIT ADJUSTERS LLC had an obligation to the FCRA to tell me if I was going to be late and that you were going to post a negative remark on my consumer report. With you reporting this account on my consumer report, it is considered an illegal report and in connection with the XXXX, NATIONAL CREDIT ADJUSTERS LLC is in violation of certain codes equating to {$1000.00} per violation. 

Failure to respond satisfactorily with deletion of the above referenced account, and send out a free copy of my report after the changes have been made will result in legal actions being taken against your company, for which I will also be seeking {$1000.00} per violation for : Defamation of Character ( per se ) Injury to person Negligent Enablement of Identity Fraud Fair Debt Collections Practices Act 15 USC 1692g violations.

Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC 1681 violations for willful noncompliance - 616. Civil liability for willful noncompliance [ 15 U.S.C. 1681n ] This account is inaccurate and I am demanding that it be removed from my consumer report.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2021 I tried to put an advertisement in a newspaper. Due several changes in the newspaper 's staff I had in contact with many people in there trying to close the deal in vain when finally on XX/XX/2021 I could made business with one of them for {$150.00}. The advertisement was paid and published according the contract terms but the newspaper generated two different invoices by two separate persons in two different dates, so now after almost XXXX years the case remains in a collection agency for an invoice of {$400.00} and is almost impossible to solve the problem with the newspaper due lack understanding. 
I have been receiving letters and phone calls from the collector but only tells me I have to try to solve the problem with the newspaper or pay the debt. 
I have the whole emails chain history because the newspaper and I always tried to communicate each other through that way.
