Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Resurgent Capital Services L.P.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I acknowledge that Resurgent Capital Services, on behalf of LVNV Funding, provided partial billing statements for the referenced accounts. However, I categorically reject their response as insufficient under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

Specifically, they have not provided the legally required documents necessary to validate the alleged debts, including : - The original signed credit agreements from XXXX XXXX XXXX  and XXXXXXXX XXXX  ( XXXX  ) - Complete billing statements covering the full account history, not just summary pages - A legally verifiable chain of title showing assignments from the original creditors to LVNV Funding - An itemized account of all interest, fees, and charges added to each account since charge-off While the provided billing statements may indicate that the accounts existed, they do not constitute full validation. Under FDCPA 1692g ( b ), a debt collector must provide adequate documentation to establish the consumers liability. Under FCRA 1681s-2 ( b ), LVNV must also conduct a reasonable investigation before continuing to report disputed data to credit bureaus.

Continuing to furnish these tradelines to credit reporting agencies without sufficient documentation constitutes a violation of federal law. I respectfully request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau take regulatory action to require LVNV Funding to either fully validate the debts or cease all collection activity and delete the tradelines. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
