Complaint narrative:
Digital Federal Credit Union XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MA XXXX Subject : Urgent Request for Resolution Regarding Unauthorized Credit Card Reporting Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to express my deep concern and frustration regarding the continued reporting of a credit card account in my name by Digital Federal Credit Union , despite my repeated requests for its removal. 

Earlier this year in XXXX specifically, I mailed in an authorization notice, called, and even sent written communication requesting that this credit card be removed from my account ( See attached Request form from Back then ). I was assured by your representative that the credit reporting associated with this card would no longer reflect on my credit score. Unfortunately, despite these assurances, the issue has not been resolved. 

Recently, while applying for a loan, I discovered that this erroneous credit card is still being reported, which has adversely affected my credit score. This situation is not only causing unnecessary stress but is also damaging my financial standing. 

It is clear to me that the systems in place at Digital Federal Credit Union are failing to address this matter appropriately. As a result, I am escalating this issue through the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) to ensure that it receives the attention it deserves. 

I demand immediate action to correct this error and to remove any adverse information related to this unauthorized credit card from my credit report. Please provide me with written confirmation that this matter has been fully resolved and that my credit score will not be negatively impacted by this issue in the future. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this critical matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive notice of right to dispute
Company: Paramount Recovery Systems, L.P.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Contacted via phone ( I did not have any other contact information at the time ) on XX/XX/XXXX requesting details of a collection placed on my credit report. I had received no prior communication before this date. I was informed that this was a medical debt from XX/XX/XXXX ( which is not how it is reported on my credit report ), when I asked for proof such as original account number and service provider ; I was told that a formal letter with details would be sent to me for dispute purposes. This was never received, at which point ( XX/XX/XXXX ) I filed a dispute with XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. These disputes yielded no further information. Based on the limited information provided via phone, this collection also ( if it is even a valid debt yet to be verified ) violates Florida Statute HB XXXX which limits medical debt collections to a five-year statute of limitations. Credit reporting currently inaccurately lists my collection as {$820.00} opened XX/XX/XXXX with an original creditor as XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX who is not an original creditor but another debt collector I have no prior knowledge of or communication from.

Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute a late fee and negative mark on my credit card account. On XX/XX/XXXX, I was informed that my account had been flagged for a late payment that too through third party credit company through their XXXX notifications. This was the first time I have ever experienced such an issue with this account. I did not receive any prior notification via call or email regarding this matter. My account is set up for automatic payments, and I was surprised to learn that the payment was marked as late despite this arrangement. 

If they would just made a call or text or email ; I would have made sure to pay my amounts. 

Upon receiving this notification, I immediately contacted bank and offered to pay the full amount due. However, they declined to remove the late fee and the negative mark on my account. Given that this was a one-time occurrence, I believe this penalty is unjustified, particularly since I did not receive any prior notice and have a history of timely payments. 

I kindly request that the CFPB intervene to have this late fee and negative mark removed from my account, as it has caused undue stress and is not reflective of my typical payment behavior. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to a resolution that rectifies this situation.
