Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding an account inaccurately reported by Portfolio recovery Assoc to XXXX. The account in question is being reported as 120 days past due, even though it is a collection account, which is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ).

2. Specific Violations : FCRA Violation : Section 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) requires that information furnished to credit reporting agencies be accurate. Reporting a collection account as 120 days past due misrepresents the nature and status of the account, violating the accuracy requirement.

FDCPA Violation : Section 807 prohibits false, deceptive, or misleading representations. Reporting the account as past due when it has been transferred to collections creates confusion and could mislead creditors or potential lenders. 

3. Additional Concern : The date of delinquency does not appear to reflect the correct date of first delinquency from the original creditor. This date appears to have been altered or re-aged, which would constitute an additional violation of the FCRA under Section 605 ( c ). 

Actions Requested : Immediately instruct XXXX to correct the account reporting to reflect its status as a collection account. 
Remove the 120 days past due designation as it is inaccurate. 
Ensure that the date of first delinquency aligns with the original creditors records. If original creditor 's records are not provided to verify the date of first delinquency, please delete this record from my consumer file or credit report. 

For accuracy of this account, please review and send me verification of the purchase agreement from the original creditor along with the complete statement 's record for this account.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Dispute Unauthorized Reporting of Negative Collections To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally dispute the reporting of the following collections on my credit report XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX I have never provided consent or permissible purpose under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) for these entities to report negative collections on my credit report. Under 15 U.S.C. 1681b, consumer reporting agencies are required to have a permissible purpose to include information on a consumer 's report. The inclusion of these collections without my explicit consent violates this standard.

Additionally, based on my investigation, these entities are not licensed to collect debts in the state of Arizona. Per state regulations, debt collectors must be properly licensed to legally operate and pursue collection activities. Reporting accounts from unlicensed entities fails to comply with both state law and the FCRA 's mandate for accuracy and verifiability ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ).

As such, I formally request the following actions : Immediate Deletion of the Accounts : Permanently remove these collections from my credit reports with Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX, as they lack a permissible purpose and are being reported by unlicensed entities. 

Written Confirmation : Provide written confirmation of the deletion of these accounts from my credit reports. 

Verification of Reporting : If you believe these accounts can be lawfully reported, provide evidence of permissible purpose and documentation confirming these entities licensure to collect in Arizona.

Failure to comply with this request within the legally required timeframe of 30 days, per 15 U.S.C. 1681i, will necessitate further action, including filing complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and the Arizona Attorney Generals Office. 

I appreciate your immediate attention to this matter and look forward to your confirmation of the requested actions. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
