Complaint narrative:
I have previously disputed XXXX XXXX XXXX Bankruptcy Chapter 13-Dismissed with you. In response, you verified the item as accurate, stating that your office has verified the information with the US Bankruptcy XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
I contacted the court disputing this bankruptcy directly with their office, and their response is enclosed for review. 
From conversations over the phone and in the letter, they sent me, they have confirmed they do not report to you or any Credit Bureau for that matter ; therefore, your initial response verifying the item with the court was either an error on your part or misleading. 
Either way, the reporting of this Bankruptcy, which I NEVER initiated or requested does not comply with FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681I ), and the information must be deleted immediately.

Complaint narrative:
To whom it may concern, On XX/XX/XXXX, I wrote to you requesting an investigation into items that I believed were fraud, inaccurate, and falsely reporting. To this date only response that I have received was computer-generated letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 
I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance. 
I further remind you that, as in White v. Experian Information Solutions, 993 F. Supp.

2d 1154 - Dist. Court, ( CD California 2014 ) ; you may be liable for violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by recklessly failing to follow reasonable procedures to ensure the accurate reporting of debts discharged in bankruptcy and by refusing to adequately investigate consumer disputes regarding the status of discharged accounts.

I have requested that all NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS provide proof of alleged items. I request to be provided with specifically the original application, contract, note, or another instrument bearing my signature. 
In addition, any the contract signed between NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS & the original creditor, notarized and sworn under penalty and perjury NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS ability to collect this alleged debt.

I request this under 15 U.S. Code 1692g - Validation of debts. If information is not provided or the false reporting isnt removed ; as in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX., No. XXXX ( XXXXXXXX XXXX. XXXX ), you may be liable for your willful non-compliance. 
Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be reinvestigated.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was result of identity theft
Company: R & B Corporation of Virginia
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB, I am writing to you to bring to your attention a violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) by a debt collector. As per 15 USC 1692g, I have not received a proper validation notice from the debt collector. The notice provided to me fails to meet the requirements outlined in the FDCPA. 

When the debt collector first contacted me, they did not provide me with a validation notice as required by 15 USC 1692g. Instead, they simply demanded payment for an alleged debt. The letter I received from the debt collector only contained the amount of the alleged debt, the name and address of the creditor, and a statement that I had XXXX  days to dispute the debt, but it did not include a clear statement of my rights under the FDCPA nor the steps I need to take to dispute the debt. This is a violation of my rights under the FDCPA. 

I am requesting that you take immediate action to ensure that the debt collector is held accountable for their actions. I would like for them to be required to provide me with a valid validation notice and remove any negative credit reporting until they have done so. Additionally, I would like for them to pay any damages that have resulted from their actions. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to hearing from you soon. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
