Complaint narrative:
Qualia Collection Service is posting a dept collection for XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, XXXX, CA is XXXX the creditor. 

I have no clue what this amount should be. I don't have a relationship with this company or anything to do in California. I have received neither information nor any other data showing that I owe this. 
Several phone calls, written complaints, and anything else were helpful.

I may remember that I was called several times, claiming that I had to settle a vacancy, which, of course, was not true. 

The consequence is that I now have an entry that significantly affects my credit scoring, although this is a marginal claim. Such a thing costs the consumer a lot of time and money. Taking out a mortgage is cost-dependent and time-consuming.

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX Subject : Dispute of Civil Liability, Neglect, and Non-Compliance Violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681o Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to file a formal complaint and dispute regarding the failure of certain creditors and credit reporting agencies to comply with their obligations under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically under 15 U.S. Code 1681o, which relates to civil liability for non-compliance.

I have identified the following accounts on my credit report that I believe are either incorrect, incomplete, or have not been properly investigated upon my prior dispute submissions. Despite my efforts, these issues have not been resolved, and I am seeking the CFPBs assistance in addressing these violations and ensuring the creditors and reporting agencies comply with the law. 

The following accounts are in dispute : XXXXXXXX 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 XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I have provided these creditors and credit bureaus with the necessary documentation and supporting evidence to dispute the inaccuracies in my credit report. However, they have failed to comply with their legal responsibilities to investigate and resolve these disputes in a timely manner. Under 15 U.S. Code 1681o, I am entitled to civil damages for harm caused by their neglect and failure to properly address these disputes. 

To date, the agencies and creditors listed above have either failed to respond, have not conducted thorough investigations, or have neglected their duties under the FCRA to remove or correct inaccurate information within the required timeframe. As a result, my credit report has been negatively affected, and I am suffering financial harm due to this non-compliance. 

I request that the CFPB investigate these violations and take appropriate enforcement actions to ensure that the involved parties are held accountable and that my rights under the FCRA are upheld. Additionally, I request that the necessary steps be taken to remove the inaccuracies from my credit report or to provide a detailed explanation of why these items have not been corrected. 


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

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Dispute of Inaccurate Credit Reporting XXXX XXXX XXXX Dear Experian Dispute Department, I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information on my credit report under 12 CFR Part 1002 ( Regulation B of the Equal Credit Opportunity Act ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681 ).

Upon reviewing my credit report, I have identified factual errors in the reporting of the account from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Account Number : XXXX ) that violate my rights under federal law. 
Specific Errors Identified : Incorrect Reporting of Late Payments on a Closed Account ( 12 CFR 1002.4 ( a ) Prohibited Misrepresentations ) The account is reported as " Paid, Closed '' as of XX/XX/XXXX, meaning no further payments were due after that date. 
However, the report incorrectly shows a XXXX late payment for XX/XX/XXXX and a XXXX late payment for XX/XX/XXXX, despite on-time payments being reported for prior months. 
If the account was closed and paid, it is factually inaccurate to report delinquencies during that time, violating 12 CFR 1002.4 ( a ), which prohibits misrepresenting the status of an account. Failure to Accurately Update
Account Closure Status ( 12 CFR 1002.6 ( b ) ( 6 ) Accuracy of Information ) The balance section of the report is blank, yet the payment history reflects a past due status, which is contradictory. 
The reporting does not clarify whether any outstanding balance was due at the time of closure, making it unclear and misleading.

This violates 12 CFR 1002.6 ( b ) ( 6 ), which requires accurate and clear credit reporting to ensure the account details reflect actual payment history.

Failure to Provide Correct Payment History on a Paid Account ( 12 CFR 1002.10 Furnishing of Credit Information ) Since the account is marked as " Paid, Closed, '' it should not continue to reflect missed payments after closure.

The reporting of late payments on a fully paid and closed account is inaccurate and misleading, which negatively impacts my credit standing.

This violates 12 CFR 1002.10, which mandates that creditors ensure credit information is furnished accurately and updated properly.

Violation of My Consumer Rights Under 12 CFR Part 1002 : 12 CFR 1002.10 Furnishing of Credit Information requires that creditors ensure credit information is correct and properly updated. The erroneous delinquency reporting on a paid account violates this rule.

12 CFR 1002.9 Notifications requires that adverse actions based on credit reporting be properly communicated. This reporting error constitutes an adverse action that has not been properly disclosed.

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.
