Complaint narrative:
Hi, I ask the help of CFPB with the above creditor. TransUnion and XXXX have stated that this account is accurate, yet both bureaus have not provided me anything. I have even sent a letter for VALIDATION First letter was sent out on XX/XX/2019 Second attempt has been sent at the beginning of XXXX, both letters I have sent and all I receive from the company are statement trying to collect a debt ( not mine ) these statements do not show anything and are not documents accepted as validation, so how is it that XXXX and TransUnion are validating this account. I believe the bureaus are NOT validating anything and not properly investigating. TransUnion and XXXX have closed my dispute and will no longer investigate ; therefore, I ask the help of cfpb to oversee what is going on. I request XXXX XXXX  to remove both accounts from each credit files at once. Since they have failed to provide me with requested information. The FCRA requires you to verify the validity of the item within 30 days. I been disputing these accounts since XXXX days later, way pass 30 days. Enclose are copies of validation letters sent to creditor and bureau, receipt of certified mail and return receipt as well, creditor constant statement to pay a debt not belonging to me. XXXX To who it may concern, I am writing to dispute the account referenced above. I have disputed this account information as inaccurate with you, and you have come back to me and stated you were able to verify this debt. How is this possible? Under the laws of the FDCPA, I have contacted the collection agency myself and have been unable to get them to verify that this is indeed my debt. I enclose copies of my requests to the collection agency, asking them to validate my debts, and the receipts showing that I sent these letters certified signature request. This debt is not mine and I was given no evidence of my obligation to pay this debt to this collection agency. The FCRA requires you to verify the validity of the item within 30 days. If the validity can not be verified, you are obligated by law to remove the item. There is a clear case of unverified debt here, and I urge you to remove this item before I am forced to take legal action. If you can not verify the item pursuant to the FCRA, and you continue to list the disputed item on my credit report I will find it necessary to sue you for actual damages and declaratory relief under the FCRA. According to this regulation, I may sue you in any qualified state or federal court, including small claims court in my area. While I prefer not to litigate, I will use the courts as needed to enforce my rights under the FCRA.I look forward to an uneventful resolution of this matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
