Company: ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I paid {$450.00} to Midland Credit Management as a one-time full settlement of my account on XX/XX/XXXX, as discussed and agreed to in chat. The company confirmed in writing that this amount would settle the debt in full. 

However, after making the payment, my account still shows a remaining balance of {$810.00}. This is misleading and inaccurate. 

I also submitted a request under the Americans with Disabilities Act ( ADA ) for written-only communication due to a documented medical condition. This request was repeatedly denied, and I was pressured into paying without receiving proper written confirmation of the settlement. 

I am requesting a formal investigation and correction of the balance and a written confirmation that the account is settled in full and will be reported accurately to credit bureaus.

Complaint narrative:
I discovered a fraudulent auto loan account on my credit report from XXXX XXXX, account number XXXX, which I did not authorize or open. The account was opened around XX/XX/XXXX, but I did not become aware of it until XX/XX/XXXX, when I reviewed my credit report. 

I have never applied for or received a loan from XXXX XXXX, and I believe this account was opened using my personal information without my permission. 

I filed an FTC Identity Theft Report ( Report # XXXX ) and submitted dispute letters to XXXX, Experian, and XXXX requesting the removal of this fraudulent account. I am also attaching that report and relevant documentation. 

Despite my efforts, this account is still being reported and is negatively affecting my credit profile. I am seeking the complete removal of this fraudulent account and any related inquiries from my credit report.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
submitted formal identity theft documentation under FCRA 605B to all three credit bureaus Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax regarding fraudulent accounts tied to multiple confirmed data breaches ( including XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX via XXXX, and XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX The most directly affected account is XXXX XXXX, which was linked to a XXXX account I closed due to fraud. 

I made payments on the XXXX account only to prevent damage to my credit, not because I accepted responsibility for the fraudulent charges. I sent each bureau a full file, including my government-issued ID, proof of address, and supporting breach documentation. Under FCRA 605B, they were required to block these accounts within 4 business days. It has now been months, and the accounts are still being reported.

Experian continues to send letters treating this like a basic credit dispute, which it is not. I clearly identified it as a legal fraud claim under 605B. Their response misclassified my submission and failed to take appropriate action.

TransUnion initially listed the PayPal account as unauthorized but left it on my report, which is also a violation.

Equifax has not responded at all despite receiving the same complete documentation. I have heard absolutely nothing from them.

I am not disputing a charge. I am invoking my right to have fraudulent accounts permanently removed under federal law. I am asking the CFPB to hold each bureau accountable for failure to act, failure to classify the request properly, and ongoing credit harm.
