Company: Resurgent Capital Services L.P.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX Re : Dispute of Collection Account Account Number : XXXX Creditor : XXXX XXXX Dear CFPB, I am writing to formally dispute the above-referenced collection account reported on my credit file. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) and 611, I am requesting verification of this debt, as well as the specific legal basis for this entry. 

After reviewing my records, I found no written agreement or signed contract with lvnv funding authorizing them to collect or report this debt. As per FCRA guidelines, information included in my credit report must be 100 % accurate, verifiable, and substantiated. Since this collection account lacks a written agreement or valid documentation establishing my liability, it must be removed immediately. 

Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) 809 ( b ), I am requesting that XXXX XXXX provide all supporting documentation, including the original agreement and proof of validation, within 30 days. If such proof can not be produced, I demand that this entry be removed from my credit file to ensure compliance with federal law. 

This inaccurate reporting is adversely affecting my credit score and financial standing. I kindly request that this matter be addressed promptly. Please complete your investigation and notify me in writing of your findings within the 30-day period, as required by law. 

Should the investigation fail to confirm the accuracy of this account, I demand its immediate deletion from my credit report. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your response. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Immediate Action Needed : Approve Outstanding Borrower Defense Applications To the Departments Overseeing School & Loan Server Compliance, We are writing as a collective group of defrauded students and alumni who attended XXXXaffiliated schools, urging immediate action to approve outstanding Borrower Defense applications and provide full relief for those impacted. 
Many of us attended the following institutions owned by or affiliated with DeVry, where misrepresentations and predatory practices have been well-documented : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX The Department of Education has already found significant evidence of misconduct by these schools. Specifically, XXXX XXXX misrepresented job placement rates to prospective students between XXXX and XXXX, falsely claiming that 90 % of graduates secured jobs in their field of study within six months of graduation. This claim, widely advertised in national campaigns and direct mailings, was later revealed to be grossly inaccurate. XXXX included old jobs held by mid-career students before enrolling and excluded graduates who found employment outside their field of study. 
At its peak, XXXX enrolled nearly 70,000 students across campuses in 26 states and through an online program accessible nationwide. The scale of this deception has left countless students burdened with unmanageable debt and limited opportunities, as documented in the Department of Educations Borrower Defense Executive Summary and Statements of Facts. 
We are asking you to take immediate steps to : 1. Approve all outstanding Borrower Defense applications for students who attended these institutions.

2. Discharge all loans associated with fraudulent practices, including consolidated loans.

3. Repair borrowers credit reports to reflect the removal of these fraudulent debts.

Delaying action only prolongs the harm caused by these predatory institutions, leaving borrowers unable to move forward with their lives. Many of us pursued higher education to achieve the American Dream, but this dream was stolen by the very institutions we trusted to help us achieve it. 
We implore you to act decisively to ensure justice for all borrowers who were misled and exploited. The stakes are simply too high to risk further delays. 
Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. 
Sincerely, Students & Graduates of XXXX XXXX

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute accounts and inquiries listed on my consumer credit report, as referenced below, which are the result of a data breach or fraud. Additionally, I request verifiable proof, including my signature or electronic signature, to validate these actions. 

This letter is sent directly by me, not a third party, so I ask that you review it carefully. I never authorized these actions, which violate my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Specifically, these actions breach Section 605B [ 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ], which requires the blocking of information resulting from a data breach or fraud, and Section 604 [ 15 U.S.C. 1681b ], which outlines permissible purposes for consumer reports.

I have reached out to the companies involved and confirmed that these actions were initiated without compliant validation or original proof from the reporting entities. As I did not authorize these accounts or inquiries, they are inaccurate and likely the result of a data breach or unauthorized reporting of my consumer information by creditors or third-party data furnishers.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian has neither corrected nor removed ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes.
