Complaint narrative:
Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to address a matter concerning my closed account with XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  XXXX Account Number XXXX, which remains inaccurately reported on my credit report. This discrepancy not only undermines my credit standing but also infringes upon my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the guidelines outlined in 15 U.S. Code 1681a regarding consumer reports. As per 15 U.S. Code 1681a, a " consumer report '' encompasses any communication of information by a consumer reporting agency bearing on a consumer 's creditworthiness, credit standing, credit capacity, character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living, which is used or expected to be used for various purposes, including but not limited to credit, insurance, and employment. Given this definition, I am requesting that XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  take immediate action regarding the closed account reported on my credit file. Specifically, I urge you to update the status of Account Number XXXX to reflect that it has been paid in full. The account in question was opened on XX/XX/2023, and has since been closed. Any outstanding balances associated with this account have been settled and resolved. However, the continued reporting of this account without acknowledging its paid status is not only inaccurate but also detrimental to my credit standing. It is imperative that my credit report accurately reflects the resolution of this account in order to prevent any unwarranted negative impact on my creditworthiness. I trust that XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  will address this matter promptly and in accordance with the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Furthermore, I expect confirmation once the necessary actions have been taken to update the status of Account Number XXXX on my credit report. Should you require any additional documentation or information from my end to facilitate this process, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to a swift resolution that upholds my rights as a consumer and ensures the accuracy of my credit report.

Complaint narrative:
Dear XXXX, I am writing to file a complaint against XXXX XXXX regarding a debt that has been inaccurately reported and pursued for collection. Pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), specifically XXXX XXXX Code XXXX, I believe that my rights have been violated, and I request your assistance in resolving this matter. I have recently been contacted by XXXX XXXX regarding an alleged debt in the amount of {$1300.00}. However, after careful review of my financial records, I can confidently state that I do not owe any such debt to XXXX XXXX  or any other entity. According to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, if a consumer notifies a debt collector in writing that they refuse to pay a debt or wish for communication regarding the debt to cease, the debt collector shall not communicate further with the consumer with respect to such debt. I have sent written notifications to XXXX XXXXXXXX disputing the validity of the debt and requesting that they cease all communication with me regarding this matter. Despite my written requests, XXXX XXXX has continued to contact me regarding the alleged debt, which has caused undue stress and anxiety. Furthermore, they have reported this debt to credit reporting agencies, negatively impacting my credit score and financial standing. I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action against XXXX XXXX for their violations of the FDCPA. Additionally, I ask for your assistance in having the inaccurate debt removed from my credit report, as it is causing significant harm to my financial reputation. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will take prompt action to rectify this situation and uphold the rights of consumers under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute the inaccurate reporting of my credit accounts by Equifax. Despite sending payoff letters to Equifax for both XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX, my credit report continues to show balances for these accounts. Both accounts have been paid in full for over XXXX months now. 

Equifax representatives have informed me that XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX have not closed the accounts on their end. This inaccurate reporting is severely impacting my ability to establish more credit. Reports continue to show high balances, leading to denials despite paying off these amounts. 

Additionally, I have received the most recent dispute letter from Equifax, indicating that the creditor agreed that these balances were accurate and that I did not pay off the accounts. This information is incorrect, as I have indeed settled both accounts in full. 

I demand that XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX be promptly contacted to rectify this error. Failure to do so will result in my pursuit of legal action, including seeking the assistance of a credit attorney and filing a lawsuit. These inaccuracies are preventing me from obtaining additional credit and are hindering my financial goals. 

I have attached the payoff amounts from all companies below. In addition, XXXX and XXXX are reporting this account as paid in full and closed except for Equifax. 

Attached are the payoff letters from all companies as evidence of the accounts being settled. I expect immediate action to ensure that these accounts are reported as closed on my credit report. 

Your urgent attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.
