Consumer Complaint: I have called Midland Funding LLC and they stated that the last payment was made on XX/XX/2016. I was currently past due and was making partial payments for 11 months prior to that date. According to the FCRA the original past due date is the date that is required to be reported, not the last payment date.

Consumer Complaint: I've been disputing fraud accounts on my credit report since XX/XX/ 2021. I keep sending multiple sets of letters to the bureaus and the creditors so the excuse of " we didn't get it '' doesn't happen. Furthermore, each letter is certified mail with tracking and each letter shows signed and delivered and yet the bureaus are still not taking any actions. The accounts are not showing in dispute nor are they removed from my report. The accounts always show up with different name variations and different account number variations and yet the bureaus seem to ignore the trend and let these fraud accounts affect my credit score. I have requested the investigation to be initiated and also verifiable proof to be submitted should the account claim to be mine. Not only have I not received any mail showing the verifiable proofs needed to justify the accounts to be on my report, I haven't even received any letters at all stating the investigations have begun. Per the FCRA and federal law, the process is supposed to be 30 days. 130 days later, I'm still here shelling out money for certified mail with no end in sight and no results to show. This is my last option before I take this up with my lawyers and sue for full compensations and damages incurred. Finally, it seems that when these complaints are submitted, the bureaus are using the excuse that they " can't confirm my identity '' to get away with taking no actions on my credit report. Please investigate this as well.

Consumer Complaint: I am a victim of identity theft and I have submitted a notarized affidavit which serves as a legal document to my identity theft. I am also a victim of the XXXX breach and opted out of the settlement because I have suffered extreme losses due to the breach and the identity theft. I need the fraud accounts that are in my letter that is attached removed permanently from my file as I have also contacted the creditors as well. This is extreme in violation of my fair credit reporting act rights and I will seek legal recourse. I have also attached the printout of me being affected by the XXXX breach as well.

Consumer Complaint: Midland Credit Management had been sending me correspondence for a year to collect a debt. I would call the company when contacted and try to work with the company to resolve the debt. The company was disinterested in resolving the debt each time I called the company. Ultimately, the company proceeded to send a claim to court, despite my ongoing attempts to resolve the debt. I called the company on XX/XX/2021 and the debt was ultimately settled for an amount of {$950.00}. A contract was signed to resolve the matter finally, between both parties. The following Monday and next business day after the claim was settled, Midland Credit Management proceeded to report to all credit bureau agencies false information, regarding an outstanding debt to their company from me, for an amount of approximately {$1500.00}. I proceeded to call the company 's lawyers to understand why this information was reported inaccurately to all credit companies when the matter had been resolved the week before ; additionally, the debt had never been reported to credit bureau agencies, as my records will attest, until the after the claim was settled, the week of XX/XX/2021. Ultimately, I called the lawyers of the company and the company itself to receive clarification for the false representation of the claim for a debt that had been settled, but I have been redirected 3 times to various phone numbers of the company which all led me back to the company 's lawyers once again. The company 's lawyers refuse to answer my phone calls and send me directly to message and I still have obtained no clarification, as to why a claim that has been settled out of court and has been negotiated for a year, is now being reported as outstanding from this week onward, when it was resolved the week before and is thus being falsely represented to credit bureau agencies.
