Date Received: 2021-02-27

Issue: Written notification about debt

Subissue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Consumer Complaint: Midland is reporting in my credit file however it is inaccurate because it was said to be late, yet all the payments are OK. I do not think that this is mine. I did my research on what to do because it is affecting my scores to badly, I asked for documents, disclosure and where did the account come from but they failed to provide me, so I came online and researched. The plaintiff is asking the same thing that I wanted and at the end of it all the plaintiff won this case. I am talking about the Texas VS Midland Funding Case. I have learned that Midland claims to have a disclosure and an agreement that there is a Consumer Agreement for all who they are collecting from. I guarantee you that there is no such thing that I have agreed upon to.

Consumer Complaint: Dear sir/madam, MIDLAND CREDIT MANAGEMENT has been reporting to the 3 credit agencies that I owe {$430.00} to them for an original creditor called '01 XXXX XXXX '. They have been calling me at home and work numbers several days per week harassing me about this money. I DO NOT owe them any money! And they are in the process of RUINING my credit. I have submitted a dispute via XXXX XXXX but no response yet. I suspect this could be owed by someone with a similar name as mine. Please help! Midland Credit Management is ruining my credit with a BOGUS collection submitted to all 3 credit bureaus.
