Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: ACIMA CREDIT, LLC
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
I am responding to Acimas submission regarding my original complaint. While I acknowledge entering a lease-purchase agreement in XX/XX/2019, Acima has failed to validate the ongoing debt, provide sufficient proof of continued liability, or demonstrate lawful credit reporting practices under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Key Issues : 1. Unverifiable and Incomplete Reporting Acima has not shown proof that I still possess the leased property or that any repossession or closure actions have taken place. Despite reporting the account as charged-off, they continue to reflect a balance of {$1900.00} on my XXXX report without updating the account since XXXX, violating the requirement under FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 2 ) to report accurate and complete data. 2. Failure to Validate Under FCRA 611 Acima failed to provide sufficient documentation proving continued ownership, payment obligation, or attempts to collect. They submitted a lease agreement that does not include a wet signature and a transaction summary showing no payments made since XXXX This does not constitute adequate verification under FCRA 611 ( b ) ( 1 ). 3. Improper Balance Reporting Post Charge-Off Acima indicated in their response that the lease has been charged off. However, under XXXX XXXX  guidelines and case law, charged-off lease obligations must be reported with a {$0.00} balance if not being pursued or sold. Acima continues to report the original balance with no justification or updates. I respectfully request : Permanent deletion of this account from my XXXX credit file due to unverifiable, inaccurate, and outdated information ; or Immediate update of the account status and balance in compliance with federal reporting standards ; Full documentation of Acimas method of verification, payment activity, and evidence of continued collection or repossession efforts. Can I send this for the complaint

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing several unauthorized inquiries currently listed on my credit report. These inquiries were made without my consent and have directly harmed both my credit standing and score. 

Despite previous assurances from your agency that these entries would be removed, they continue to appear. This persistent failure to take corrective action is unacceptable and must be addressed without further delay. 

These inquiries are potentially fraudulent, raise serious concerns of identity theft, and are causing ongoing financial and emotional harm.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX blatantly violates ESG-compliance and is suppressing claims to avoid triggering GDP-level regulatory failure. I have recorded interactions showing awareness of this suppression and am flagging this as a cyber-ethics issue intersecting with financial abuse against XXXX or low-income individuals.

They owe me {$130.00} and now I have a new case XXXX trying to report for fraud from XXXX  not giving me a refund when I emailed them multiple times, and they didnt even handle this case so how am I gon na trust theyre gon na handle that case.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) 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.

" I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.
