In my recent CFPB complaint to Experian # XXXX, Experian responded that the reported XXXX XXXX info does exist on my credit report however Experian is still reporting the info which continues to negatively impact my score.

I have spoken with Experian over the phone & was basically told that conpanies like XXXX XXXX can put whatever fraud onto your credit report & that is solely up to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX wants to remove it or not which i find to be overly rediculous like i'm being lied to when i know uniform commercial codes that do not allow for this type of behavior.

The loan was paid in full from both parties. I have documentation supporting that fact.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
So I was using a site called XXXX, and one day I noticed a lot of transactions were made on my chase debit card, I must have saved the card information on the site by accident, so I quickly tried to log back into the site to check just to find out that my account was hacked, the hacker changed emails, password that is associated with the account, I contacted XXXX  support to get my account back but they took pretty long to help and unfortunately they cant give me a refund, so I contacted chase to dispute the transactions. And as soon as I got the account back, I got hack again and this time they charge my debit almost 50 times in one night, this is when I know the whole site is just a scam, I should've realize faster because of how much fraud alert I'm getting when trying to buy stuff from the site. I quickly call my bank to dispute the charges and get a new card, I just don't know if chase can win the dispute for me.

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau 1700 G Street NW Washington, D.C. 20552 Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding Lockhart , Morris & Montgomery , Inc. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Several months ago, I requested a Debt Validation Letter from this organization as per my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). However, to date, I have not received any response or the requested validation of the alleged debt.

In the absence of a Debt Validation Letter, I am unable to verify the legitimacy of this debt. This failure to respond constitutes a violation of the FDCPA, which mandates that a debt collector must provide validation of a debt upon request.

Given this lack of response, I am formally requesting that this alleged debt be removed from all credit bureaus immediately. The failure of Lockhart , Morris & Montgomery , Inc to provide the requested validation leaves me with no other recourse but to seek your assistance in ensuring that this erroneous debt is expunged from my credit records.

I trust that the CFPB will take the necessary steps to address this issue promptly. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your swift response and resolution.

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Please provide me with proof of these items, specifically the contract, note or other instrument bearing my signature or a documented record of the payment history. Failing that, please update the record to show PAID IN FULL, NEVER LATE, or delete the item from the report as soon as possible.
