Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Public record information inaccurate
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
There is a Bankruptcy ( XXXX ) listed on my credit report. It may belong to somebody else with the same name as me and is on my report in error, I am not sure. I have attempted to fix this issue with the three bureaus, though unsuccessfully. I have sent monthly dispute letters via certified mail. All three bureaus claim the XXXX was " verified as accurate ''. XXXX stated they verified the account through third party XXXX. This is not possible because I have confirmation from XXXX that my account has a security freeze placed so they are not providing info to anyone regarding my account AND they sent me a letter confirming they removed the listed XXXX in compliance with the Fair Credit reporting Act ( attached ). This proves that XXXX did not verify through XXXX. Experian stated they verified the account as accurate through " the company that reported the bankruptcy ''. They did not provide info regarding who reported this error. I did contact the Court that Experian listed and they stated they did not report it nor did they verify it as accurate. XXXX stated they verified it as accurate and provided no further information. XXXX also states on its website that it verifies XXXX using XXXX. At this point I am at a loss as to where or who I need to contact to have this very harmful error fixed

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I was on my way to physical therapy when I was hit by a lady who had no drivers license or insurance. The lady was at fault and received several tickets. My insurance company XXXX determined that my car was a total lose and issued XXXX XXXX a payment of XXXX, XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. On the day of my accident I got a payoff quote sent to me from credit acceptance ( The Payoff Amount owed on the Account is {$13000.00} as of XX/XX/XXXX ) and I notified them of the accident. I also purchased GAP insurance and a warranty when I purchased the car which totaled 4000, which should take care of the difference. XXXX XXXX is now saying I dont have Gap or a warranty and is reporting to the credit bureaus that I am 60-90 days behind on payments and owe them 2000 ( the amount keeps rising so Im not for sure on amount ). This is the second time reporting XXXX XXXX the first time was for the FAKE warranty that I purchased and now to find out the Gap insurance I purchased was a scam also. 
I sent a dispute to all three credit bureaus that showed all this and explained the date of the last payment was wrong which according to MY RIGHTS the credit bureaus should have deleted it because of incorrect information instead ignored my request and said it was reporting correctly. This would also be the second time all three credit bureaus violated MY RIGHTS, I am also sending a copy of the first dispute where all three credit bureaus refused to delete incorrect payment information.

Company: The CMI Group, Inc.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
XXXX called and did not identify her title or business. 
She went on to ask me for personal information regarding my address and other identifying information. I stopped her and asked who she was and with whom she was employed by. She spurted out Credit Management and then went right back into asking me personal questions. I stopped her again and asked what kind of business she was calling in reference to. She refused to answer until I confirmed sensitive information. By this time I Googled this company and discovered it was a collections or lawyer looking for debt reconciliations. I told XXXX that she should have identified herself by title and her business name before asking sensitive information. She said that was not required by collections companies to collect debts. She then proceeded to tell me that since I won't give her my personal information that she will hang up. She hung up.

Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive notice of right to dispute
Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I have been disputing this debt since XXXX. The original creditor is XXXX XXXX which was my former employee for almost 20 years. Almost our entire site was laid off XX/XX/XXXX. I was paying my XXXX XXXX credit card with severance until it ran out. I called late XXXX XXXX about settling account and the CAP ( customer assistance program ) and was told I could not because I was current. I needed the account to be delinquent to do so. They would not allow me the hardship plan even though I didnt have a job and hadnt been approved for unemployment. Then XXXX happened in XX/XX/XXXX. I called back and tried to get a settlement but could not afford the amount plus I didnt agree with the negative or derogatory credit rating it would give me. I called and wrote complaints to the office of the president with no resolution. A year later and they sell my account to a debt buyer and delete their reporting from credit bureau. Now, I receive an update from the credit bureaus of a major derogatory impact from the debt buyer. I have not received any calls, messages or letters from them. I continue to dispute this as XXXX  should not have sold this account while I disputed. I worked in the recovery department and saw they bent over backwards for customers who in fact owed but complained and threaten their reputation. I was drowning and asking for assistance and they refused to help me. No Covid relief or hardship help, all because I was current at the time. 

Riddle me this, why would I as an excellent customer with no late payments intentionally damage my own credit? Who does that? I was proactive and reached out for help. I could not afford it then and cant afford it now. Covid still exists. I have twin sons in college and I can not pay this debt. Its settlement or bankruptcy which I dont want to do but will be left with no other choice. 

Im disappointed that in this day and time, companies seek to make life harder for others. It should not be allowed. 

No attempts to reach me. No letters and if calls were made, there was not a single message left regarding this. 

Again, I dispute this debt. XXXX should never have sold a debt in dispute. They know better.

1. These transactions into Coinbase company were part of a cryptocurrency scam.

2. After several days investigation, there are plenty and verifiable evidence along with other victims indicating this is a cryptocurrency scam and fraud. The website has showed the fraudulent activities. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I tracked the downstream wallet, which was report many times for fraud, and Coinbase ignored the problems and they didnt do anything to investigate or close the fraud wallet.

4. Coinbase has a big loophole that makes it easy for the scammers to do money laundering and allows scam site to launder funds to their platform. Such merchant was contributed to fraudulent practices and did not have any safety precautions in place to protect myself and others from this happening.
