I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than XXXX  days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me.

In the quiet humdrum of everyday life, a sudden jolt shattered the tranquility : I had become a victim of identity theft.

With each fraudulent transaction and unauthorized account, the breach of trust cut deep, leaving me grappling with the unsettling reality of a violated identity. Yet, in the midst of chaos, a glimmer of resilience emerged, a resolve to reclaim what was rightfully mine and restore the harmony stolen by unseen adversaries. These are the following accounts need to be removed :

Company: SUNRISE CREDIT SERVICES, INC
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Their sales rep falsely sold me a phone claiming they built a new tower in my area that had service. When I received my phone, not only was it the wrong phone but it didn't get service. A new rep of theirs verified there was no tower and that it was a lie. They proceeded to send me the correct phone to try and see if it worked better and told me to activate the one they sent to use until the new one arrived.

I couldn't use it at my residence and had to drive out of the house to make or receive a call. The new phone arrived late and didn't have service either so I sent both back and was told I wouldn't be charged for the phone or the service since it didn't work properly. 

Couple months later I get a bill and try to resolve with their management who claimed the debt was valid and pressed me for the payment. It went as far as the XXXX  and their corporate office disputing it with me. This is a major company XXXX XXXX XXXX putting me through all this over {$100.00} for a phone I returned after they lied to me and caused me to give up XXXX which I quickly went back to. 

Not to mention, I gave them my trade in which was being offered {$800.00} for off any phone with all the major carriers at that time due to the chip shortage which they kept and didn't return. 

I fought this and won on every credit bureau but they keep selling the debt to another agency and it keeps coming back on my credit report which is hurting me while I'm trying to buy a car and a house.
