Company: Source Receivables Management LLC
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2024, I sent a letter to Source Receivables Management disputing the validity of a debt that has been attributed to me. This debt, which is linked to an account with XXXX under the name XXXX, does not belong to me, and I have never authorized any transactions related to this account. 

In my correspondence, I requested the following actions : Verification of Debt : I requested that Source Receivables Management provide documentation verifying the debt, including the original signed contract or agreement. Despite their claim of updating the account as disputed, the debt remains inaccurately attributed to me. 
Dispute and Removal : I demanded that the inaccurate information be removed from my credit report if sufficient evidence could not be provided to substantiate the debt as mine. The continued reporting of this incorrect information is causing significant harm to my credit score and financial standing.

Breakdown of Charges : I asked for a detailed breakdown and supporting documentation for each charge associated with the account, including service charges, late fees, XXXX charges, equipment charges, and collection fees. Without proper documentation, these charges can not be considered valid.

Misreporting and Legal Obligations : I requested confirmation that the dispute status of this account has been communicated to all three major credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX ). I also requested copies of the communications sent to the credit bureaus confirming the dispute status. 
Despite my clear requests, I have not received adequate responses or the necessary documentation from Source Receivables Management to validate this debt. This lack of response and the continued reporting of inaccurate information is a violation of my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

Complaint narrative:
RE : XXXX Dear CFPB Team, I am writing to formally submit a complaint against Experian regarding their failure to provide documentation and their misleading communications concerning my credit report. Despite my repeated requests for clarification, Experian has not fulfilled their obligations under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically Sections 611 and 605.

Experians online portal indicates that their investigation into the disputed account has been completed and that the account has been updated. However, this contradicts the information previously reported to the CFPB, where the status of my dispute remains unresolved. This discrepancy raises serious concerns about Experians compliance with the FCRA, which mandates that consumers have the right to dispute inaccuracies and receive a thorough investigation.

Under Section 611 ( a ) of the FCRA, credit reporting agencies are required to conduct a reasonable investigation of a consumers dispute and provide documentation that supports their findings. Experians failure to provide the necessary documentation regarding the disputed account is not only unjust but also a violation of my rights as a consumer. This lack of transparency has resulted in significant financial hardship and emotional distress, impacting my ability to secure credit and manage my financial obligations.

I demand that Experian take immediate action to resolve this matter by providing the documentation supporting their claims. Furthermore, I request that the CFPB investigate this issue thoroughly to ensure Experian complies with the FCRA and takes appropriate action to rectify their reporting practices.

In addition, due to the financial hardship and emotional stress caused by this situation, I seek guidance on how to pursue compensation for the damages incurred as a result of Experian 's actions. 

Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I look forward to your prompt response and assistance in resolving this issue. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Request for Credit Information Correction - Compliance with 15 U.S. Code 1666b and Other FCRA Provisions I am writing to you as the holder of account number [ XXXX  XXXX Account Number : XXXX ] for my credit card, to report an issue negatively impacting my credit report. This issue appears to be in violation of the provisions of 15 U.S. Code 1666b and other relevant sections of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). According to 15 U.S. Code 1666b, creditors must send periodic statements, including all information required by section 1637 ( b ), at least 21 days before the payment due date. This requirement ensures that consumers have sufficient time to receive, review, and make necessary payments without being unfairly penalized for late payments. Additionally, the FCRA, specifically sections 15 U.S. Code 1681i and 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, mandates that credit reporting agencies and information furnishers correct any inaccurate or incomplete information in credit reports and ensure the maximum accuracy of information contained in consumer files. I have identified that the statements for my credit card, have not been delivered in compliance with these requirements, resulting in the appearance of late payments on my credit report. This non-compliance has adversely affected my credit score. Furthermore, I would like to refer to the Protection Against Non-Payment of Obligations Act ( PAANL ), which establishes that creditors must ensure timely delivery of statements to avoid unfair penalties to consumers. I formally request that you investigate and correct any inaccurate information related to these late payments on my credit report. Below are the details of the affected payments : I am attaching a letter showing that the creditor did not respond to me within the 30-day period, in which I formally request that detailed proof be provided to me regarding this specific item. '' [ per 15 USC 1666 ( b ) ] which has been adopted to ensure that each periodic statement is mailed to me ( the consumer ) no later than 21 days before the payment due date. Also include all information required by section 1637 ( b ) of Title 15. Date of reported late payment : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX
