Company: Rowland Avenue Management, Inc. A/KA Columbia Debt Recovery, LLC d/b/a Genesis
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I made a payment to Columbia Debt Recovery LLC DBA Genesis on XX/XX/year>, based on a settlement offer they sent me, which stated I owed {$6200.00}, with a reduced settlement amount of {$4700.00} if paid by XX/XX/year>. I trusted this information and paid the settlement in good faith, expecting the account to be fully settled. 

However, I later learned that there were significant errors in their communication. Previously, I had spoken with XXXX XXXX XXXX of Genesis, who informed me that there were two lease contracts in dispute. He assured me that after making the payment, the smaller account would be removed from my credit report, which hasnt happened. Additionally, Genesis is still reporting a balance of over {$80000.00} on the second agreement, despite having previously offered a much lower settlement amount. 

This miscommunication is problematic, as I was led to believe my payment would settle the account. The incorrect balance is still showing on my credit report, causing harm to my financial standing, which is unfair and needs immediate correction.

Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute the inaccurate and unlawful reporting of an account from TD Auto Finance, reflected on my credit report. This account, with number XXXX, was charged off and subsequently paid in full ; however, I never received a 1099-C form for the canceled debt. As this form is required by the IRS to report forgiven debt, the failure to provide it constitutes tax fraud. I have been advised by the IRS to file Form 3949-A to report this violation. Additionally, TD Auto Finance has failed to follow proper UCC ( Uniform Commercial Code ) regulations with respect to the repossession of the vehicle associated with this account, further invalidating the legitimacy of the reported information. Moreover, a previous dispute letter dated XX/XX/year>, which I have attached for your reference, notified you that TD Auto Finances business registration in Texas is currently inactive, and their right to conduct business within the state has been forfeited. Since the company lacks the legal authority to operate in Texas, it can not lawfully engage in activities such as reporting debts to credit bureaus. I have also included XXXX XXXX XXXX to confirm their inactive status. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 USC 1681e ( b ), you are required to ensure that all information reported on credit files is 100 % accurate. Due to the discrepancies mentionedspecifically the missing 1099-C, violations of UCC regulations , and the forfeited legal status of TD Auto Financethe continued presence of this account on my credit report is unlawful and misleading. Therefore, I demand the immediate removal of this account from my credit file. Please be advised that failure to remove this inaccurate account within 30 days will result in further actions, including filing complaints and pursuing legal remedies for damages. I expect written confirmation of the accounts removal within the timeframe required by law.
