Consumer complaint received 2025-05-10 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Larry H. Miller Group of Companies
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to file a formal complaint against a creditor for the improper reporting of a charged-off account on my credit report. Despite the account being charged off, it continues to reflect an outstanding balance, and I have never received a Form 1099-C, which is typically issued when a debt is forgiven or canceled. 
The account details are as follows : Creditor Name : PRESTIGE FINANCIAL Account NumberXXXX Original Amount : {$16000.00} Current Amount Owed : {$7700.00} Charge-Off Date : XX/XX/year> According to IRS regulations, a creditor must issue a 1099-C when a debt of {$600.00} or more is canceled, and they are required to report that cancellation to both the consumer and the IRS. The fact that this account remains on my credit report with a balance implies the debt is still collectible, which is inconsistent with what typically follows a charge-off and contradicts fair reporting standards. 
This situation raises serious concerns under both the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and potential IRS compliance failures. I have contacted the credit bureaus to dispute this reporting, but the issue remains unresolved. 
I respectfully request that the CFPB : Investigate this matter with the original creditor and any debt collector or data furnisher involved.

Determine whether a 1099-C was filed and whether the continued reporting of a balance is lawful.

Require the correction or removal of the item from my credit report if the debt was, in fact, canceled. 
I have attached documentation including : A copy of my credit report showing the account in question A written copy of my dispute to the credit bureaus My identification and address confirmation Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your assistance in resolving this issue and ensuring my consumer rights are protected. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I received a call regarding a debt and I requested a letter with detailed information about it. However, they only told me that I had to make a payment, without clearly explaining what the debt was for. In order to prevent any negative impact on my credit, I made a payment of {$100.00}. Later, I noticed that my credit report had been negatively affected by this account. I contacted them again to request information about the debt, but they informed me that they had already provided the information during the initial contact and that they are unable to send any further documentation after 30 days

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I am writing to delete the following information on my credit report. The following items are listed in the report. I am a victim of identity theft. The charges made on the account were not mine. The items need to be deleted as they are inaccurate items on my credit report. The theft of my identity was reported to the federal Trade Commission. Also, I have an enclosed copy of the Federal Trade Commission identity theft affidavit. Please find it in your best interest to delete the items I would like to emphasize the following legal obligations under the FCRA : Under 1681b, a consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report only under specific circumstances, including " In response to the order of a court having jurisdiction to issue such an order, or a subpoena issued in connection with proceedings before a Federal grand jury. '' This provision strictly limits when my consumer report can be furnished, and I do not believe any of these circumstances apply in this case.

Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), credit bureaus must conduct a " reasonable reinvestigation '' upon receiving notice of a consumer dispute. I am formally notifying you of this dispute, and I expect a thorough and reasonable reinvestigation of all items I've identified.

15 U.S. Code 1681b outlines the permissible purposes of consumer reports, including conditions for furnishing and using consumer reports for employment purposes. I do not believe any of these permissible purposes apply to the disputed items on my report.

15 U.S. Code $ 1681c-2 a consumer reporting agency shall block the reporting of any.

information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt.

15 U.S. Code 1681 Section B ( i ) - Requirements relating to reinsertion of previously deleted material - If a consumer reporting agency removes information from someone's credit file based on the requirements in the preceding section ( A ), the agency can not re-add or reinsert that previously deleted information back into the person 's file unless the entity that originally provided that information certifies that it is complete and accurate.
