Company: Kikoff Inc.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint to formally request the removal of certain closed accounts from my credit report, as the debt collector involved has engaged in abusive and unfair practices, in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). 

This debt collector furnished an account to my credit report without my agreement or participation in any binding legal contract. As you are aware, a legal contract requires the consent of both parties, and I did not participate in any such agreement regarding this debt. 

Furthermore, the debt collector failed to follow the proper 5-step validation procedure, which is required under the FDCPA. This failure to properly validate the debt makes their actions an unfair practice. 

According to the FDCPA, I am entitled to {$1000.00} per violation. Clearly, by furnishing an account that I did not agree to and failing to follow the legally required validation steps, the debt collector has violated my rights. 

I am requesting that the CFPB take appropriate action to have this account removed from my credit report and ensure that the debt collector is held accountable for their violations. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt resolution.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint against XXXX for its willful violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically XXXX ( c ), concerning the removal of adverse information resulting from my status as a XXXX XXXX  XXXX. Despite my submission of valid documentation and multiple attempts to have this harmful information removed from my credit report, XXXX has refused to comply with its clear legal obligation. 

As stipulated by the FCRA 605 ( c ) ( 1 ), no consumer reporting agency may furnish any adverse information regarding a consumer if it is the result oXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. I have met every legal requirement necessary under this statute, including providing documentation as required by law under 605 ( c ) ( 2 ). The law is unambiguous : once a consumer provides such documentation, the credit reporting agency must remove the adverse information. This has been affirmed in Doe v. Equifax Information Services, XXXX, XXXX XXXX Dist. XXXX XXXX, which emphasizes that non-compliance with 605 ( c ) constitutes a direct violation of the FCRA and subjects the reporting agency to legal consequences for damages under 1681n and 1681o of the FCRA for willful or negligent non-compliance. 

XXXX 's refusal to act is not only a violation of federal law but also a blatant disregard of my rights as a survivor. This continued reporting of inaccurate and harmful information has caused substantial damage to my creditworthiness, in clear violation of the FCRA and its protections for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. As a XXXX, I should not continue to suffer the consequences of adverse information directly linked to the trafficking I endured. 

I am demanding immediate corrective action to remove this adverse information from my credit report and to ensure that XXXX complies fully with the FCRA 605 ( c ). Failure to do so will result in further legal action, as XXXX  ongoing non-compliance constitutes willful negligence and opens the door for legal remedies, including statutory damages, actual damages, and attorney 's fees under the FCRA. 

Please provide confirmation of action and resolution on this matter promptly, as I expect this serious violation to be addressed without delay.

Complaint narrative:
Date : XX/XX/year> Amount : {$250.00} Merchant : XXXX Good evening, I opened a dispute with PNC Bank regarding the amount of {$250.00}. I purchased a vest with XXXX XXXX in XXXX, where XXXX payments are to be made towards the purchase. I did not receive the merchandise, which was supposed to be a vest from XXXX. 

The charge was done through XXXX. On XXXX, there are options to add your checking account information, your debit card and your credit card for forms of payment. I added my PNC checking account information and that is how the transaction was done. 

I opened the dispute because I did not receive the merchandise and XXXX also told me to contact my bank since it was done with my checking account and I did not receive it. PNC denied the dispute three times because they claim " I gave my checking account information to the merchant '' which is pretty obvious, but they never gave me a temporary credit, they did not " investigate '' anything and never contacted the merchant because that is what the merchant told me, so I did not have a fair chance at a dispute nor do I have the funds back in my account since PNC refuses to do anything about it.

Complaint narrative:
My account with was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX XXXX  and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported in 60 days to be removed.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided.

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports
