Company: ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC.

Complaint narrative:
According to XXXX Midland Credit Management is reporting XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, CA XXXX as a place I have lived or used as a mailing address. 

I am not sure why my name & social security number is being link to this address. I have never used this address on any document or credit application. I dont know anyone or affiliated with anyone at this address. 

This is hindering me securing a place to live as I have been asked why I am not use my previous place I live on their application. The XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, is showing up on my rental background. 

XXXX is the most difficult to deal with. When I called in they told me XXXXXXXX XXXX was the one reporting the address and I go back to file a dispute now its midland reporting. 

XXXX wont take this matter seriously as they have informed me multiple times address has no weight on your XXXX score. It is having a negative impact on me over coming homelessness and no one seems to care. Landlord are finding all sorts of tacts to deny a tenant. Then again I understand why they would deny me. It seems suspicious when I tell a landlord that I have no affiliation with that address but its shows in my credit report. 

Companies can report inaccurate information to the credit bureau and we the consumer have a hard time trying to fix an error we did not cause.

Additionally, when I hit the drop-down to see properties, it appeared that her loan and property was on the drop-down with mine. I was unable to tap on her loan and drill down all the sections with information I couldve gone as far as putting her on auto pay. Ive been about this multiple times. Every time I was assured it was gon na be fixed it was. Im sending that maybe this is connected to the identity theft and the fraud thats taking place. Id like a full explanation and a reason why I have somebody mortgage from XXXXXXXX Washington named XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX from XXXX, Washington. Its very strange that all these things are happening with my accounts with US Bank and Im just looking for some answers and some relief. Please forward to Bank so they can work on getting me a response. Someone called me the other day and said the same thing theyve been saying for months and that theyre working on it. I have ceased using their online app and any desktop version that they have. I know the last time I used it. I was still being called XXXX. Sometimes I wonder if it has to do with the XXXX number that they have on my business account. Or the account number that verifies who I am. Its also troublesome and worrisome for me. How am I supposed to protect my identity and respond to this and restore my life as it was if the information thats programmed in his systems about me is incorrect and the people that programmed it wont answer. Please help me out here.
