Complaint narrative:
I recently conducted a review of my credit report and found several items that have caused me significant distress. These items appear to be unverifiable, inaccurate, and questionable. Your agency has failed to ensure the accuracy of the information as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) Accuracy of Reports. This statute mandates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report.

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of Inaccurate or Unverifiable Information, you are required to promptly delete or modify any information found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable during a reinvestigation. If you are unable to provide me with verifiable proof of the accuracy of the disputed items within 15 days of your investigation, these accounts and the related information must be removed from my credit report. 

Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I do not recognize any of the alleged creditors or debt collectors. I have never entered into a valid contract with any of these entities, nor have I engaged in any transactions with them. As such, these accounts are fraudulent and and inaccurate information.

Complaint narrative:
I was provided lab services by XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX originally denied the claim and I appealed it. Please note that XXXX XXXX XXXX also does business as ( DBA ) XXXX XXXX. 

While waiting for my appeal to be determined, XXXX XXXX started billing {$610.00} me for the claim. I agreed to make monthly payments of {$61.00} in the meantime. 

As a result of my appeal, Medicare requested information from XXXX XXXX XXXX which they did not furnish, As a result, Medicare found my appeal to be unfavorable for XXXX XXXX XXXX with no financial responsibility to me. This was Medicare 's decision, not mine. Please read Medicare 's reason for determination of my appeal ( attached ). If the provider had provided the information Medicare requested, Medicare may have approved the claim. 

By the time my appeal was determined, I had made three payments to XXXX XXXX for a total of {$180.00} for which they now owe me. However, they continued to bill me and then turned it over for collections. i have disputed the debt with the collections people and they still insist I owe it and continue to try to collect it. 

I will attach a timeline of everything including phone calls, emails, letters, etc that I have tried to do to resolve issue. I will also provide the XXXX and letters from Medicare that were also sent to XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
I hope this message finds you well. I'm writing to formally dispute some incorrect information that appears on my recent credit report. 

After reviewing my report carefully, I noticed an account listed that does not belong to me. The entry reflects a late payment and an outstanding balance that I believe are reported in error. I have never had an account with this creditor, and Im concerned about how this might be impacting my credit standing.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Company: UPGRADE, INC.
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
I scheduled a monthly payment to my Upgrade account on XX/XX/year>. While looking over my bank account ( the following day ) I discovered on XX/XX/XXXX, Upgrade took out another payment without out my permission on the same credit card. I don't have Auto Pay from that account. I did contact Upgrade Customer Service as soon as I saw that duplicate payment, and while speaking to the customer service rep from XXXX, he said that they shouldn't have taken out that double payment out of my account, but couldn't do anything about it. After putting me on hold, he came back to the phone and said, that he would put in a request to issue me a refund, which could take up to 14 days to post. Even though that double payment was still in the " pending stage '' in my bank account. 

My issue with Upgrade is How can they just take money out of my bank account without my permission, and without me choosing Auto Pay. Also, I paid the day before, why didn't they even check see that I had already made the payment the day before they took another payment out. 

This is just one of a few things Upgrade has acted unethical in.

I take my credit seriously, just like anyone else, and the fact that there are still errors on my report is unacceptable. These inaccurate items are in pending litigation because of the way they were carelessly reported. Because they are in a pending litigation, you will not be able to verify what the disputed errors are and therefore these items need to be deleted under 15 U.S. CXXXXe XXXXi ( a ). They have directly harmed my financial opportunities and taken a real toll on my mental health. My credit report should only reflect accurate information, which is why its important all data is verified. I expect my credit report to reflect only accurate, verified informationnothing less. This needs to be corrected immediately.

Complaint narrative:
My credit report should only reflect accurate information, which is why its important to verify the accuracy of this data rather than relying solely on what the data furnisher has provided. Its frustrating to see my credit get negatively affected by inaccuracies that arent my fault. I'm deeply concerned about these errors and they've been causing me stress and it's also impacting my ability to secure new credit. They are mixed, fraudulent information that Ive never authorized or benefited from. This situation is unfair and I need you to address this as soon as possible to prevent further damage.

Neither of them have provided sufficient evidence to support the negative reporting.
