4. **15 USC 1605 - Determination of Finance Charge : ** The finance charges applied to this account may not have been calculated in accordance with the law, in violation of this section of the USC .

5. **15 USC 1681s-2 ( a ) - Responsibilities of Furnishers of Information : ** This statute requires furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the information they report. The reporting by CREDIT COLLECTION SERV appears to violate this responsibility.

8. **15 USC 1681e ( b ) - Compliance Procedures : ** This section requires credit reporting agencies to follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information reported. The presence of this disputed account on my report indicates a failure to adhere to these procedures.

Given the numerous potential violations of federal law, I respectfully request that the CFPB conduct a thorough investigation into this matter. I am seeking the immediate removal of this erroneous account from my credit report and a review of the practices employed by CREDIT COLLECTION SERV to prevent future violations.

This issue is of utmost importance to me, and I trust that the CFPB will take swift and decisive action to rectify this situation. Please keep me informed of the progress and outcome of your investigation.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this serious matter.
