Complaint narrative:
I have never received any notice to dispute or verify this alleged debt which is a violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). This company Credit Collection Service has made a willful violation of the FDCPA. They also decided to report this false information on my consumer report without verifying it which violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I demand that this agency provide proof that they have sent me a notice with a certified green return card bearing my signature, the shipping number, and verify this alleged debt by answering the attached dispute. If they can not provide the certified green card proving that they sent me the notice at least 5 business days before they started reporting and the verifying information requested in the attached dispute letter then I demand that this company cease all reporting immediately.

Company: CORELOGIC INC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally address a serious matter concerning the unauthorized disclosure of my credit information. As an individual deeply impacted by my upbringing and surrounding environment, the safeguarding of my personal data is of utmost importance to me. My unique circumstances have instilled in me a strong awareness of privacy and the critical need for consent in sharing sensitive information. 
Under the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically referenced under 15 U.S. Code 1681b - " Permissible purposes of consumer reports, '' it is clear that consumer reporting agencies are obligated to operate within strict boundaries to protect individual privacy. This statute mandates that such agencies may only release consumer reports under certain conditions, chiefly requiring the explicit, written consent of the individual concerned. It has come to my attention that my credit information has been furnished by your agency without my authorization, in direct contravention of section 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ). This section unequivocally requires my written approval prior to the dissemination of my credit report. The absence of my consent in this matter not only violates federal law but also disregards my personal rights to privacy and control over my financial information. 

Given this unauthorized action, I demand the prompt removal of all inaccurately reported information from my consumer report. Should these issues remain unaddressed, I am prepared to seek reparation through legal channels, including but not limited to, initiating a claim for damages in small claims court. 

I have taken the necessary steps to report this breach of the FCRA to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the Attorney Generals Office, the XXXX XXXX XXXX, and the Federal Trade Commission. This escalation is aimed at ensuring comprehensive resolution and to prevent further misuse of my personal information. It is my hope that by involving these regulatory bodies, we can facilitate adherence to legal standards and protect the rights of consumers like myself.

Moreover, you continued to report items that are not 100 % accurate ( the most important job as a credit reporting agency ) as well as without my permission. I have had to forcefully study to find out the numerous ways that I have been violated, but my perspicacity and indefatigability assisted me to this very moment.

Company: SELECT PORTFOLIO SERVICING, INC.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
Unfortunately, your response dated XX/XX/XXXX still does not answer my requests. You suggest that I provide you with a bank statement around the dates of the deposits sent to me yet then suggest filing a police report. Why should I send you a copy of my bank statement if you are not going to use that information in any way? Would you be filing the police report or an insurance claim for funds that werent deposited into my account? 
Are you legally allowed to ignore your customers? The very same reason that XXXX provided extremely poor service and caused my account to become theoretically behind is the same reason that you continue to charge late fees due to your refusal to confirm and accept their negligence in properly addressing my concerns. For reference, my attempts to contact your Ombudsman by email twice at XXXX but have not received any response ( XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ) have gone without response as of todays date ( XX/XX/XXXX ). 
In short, I 100 % paid the loan amount in full from the dates shown in the attachment with knowledge that no escrow increase was needed in XXXX ( since I paid the full tax bill directly to the county ). This is proven by the theoretical refund that was sent to me as a result of me paying the taxes directly to the county. Will you consider treating your customer with the due diligence and respect to understand that the information provided is accurate and true? Funds on every month in that transaction history came from my account. Do you understand why I feel that I should not pay you a double payment or payments beyond what has been paid? Regardless of your inaccurate and complicated transaction histories provided back to me are you willing to look at the big picture? 
It's sad that you refuse to give me a call and to go through this on a cordial phone call such that it can be resolved. It baffles me how you are legally allowed to treat customers in this way and still maintain a business license in any state. 
Note that XXXX payment was posted on XX/XX/XXXX per the following transaction confirmation : I have been contesting the errors on my account for some time now yet you continue to charge late fees in the interim without a final conclusion to my inquiries. I request that you sustain charging late fees until this issue is resovled. 
Hopefully you or someone at your company will look into this situation and give it the attention that it deserves. There is no reason that I should pay a corporation such as yourself ( especially after the poor service provided thus far ) DOUBLE payment on my mortgage.

Complaint narrative:
I am formally contesting and requesting the expeditious removal of fraudulent accounts from my credit report. This dispute stems from a case of identity theft, for which I have filed a formal report with the Federal Trade Commission. Furthermore, I have engaged with the bank associated with the fraudulent accounts. The banks have acknowledged the legitimacy of the identity theft report and have identified a potential system glitch that has impeded access to the records. They have assured me of the prompt removal of the fraudulent accounts, which have erroneously remained on my report for over five years. However, these fraudulent accounts persist on my report under your bureau, and I am curious about the verification process you have undertaken. XXXX and XXXX credit bureaus have ceased reporting this fraudulent accounts since the submission of the requisite documents. I demand that you remove these fraudulent accounts from my report : XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX ) XXXX
