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.

Subissue: Sued you without properly notifying you of lawsuit
Consumer Complaint: XXXX XXXX XXXX is using intimidation tactics insisting on me paying the full amount of around {$3500.00} debt when I have disputed the amount. The original creditor was XXXX XXXX for an XXXX account, and the dispute was in regards to a defective {$840.00} product that XXXX refused to return, while XXXX XXXX kept piling up {$450.00} finance charges each month. 1. They sent me a letter that I'm being sued and when I called them to explain why i am disputing the amount, and offered to settle for an amount equal to the value of the defective product even though i have no use for it. I asked for a letter that the collection entry will be deleted from my credit report and the status reflecting somewhat a positive status, they sent me back to Midland credit stating the don't have that authority. 2. When i called midland credit asking for the same thing, they sent me back to XXXX XXXX XXXX stating the account is no longer in their hands. 3. I submitted an offer to XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX at their mkbillpay portal for settlement of debt 4. I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX which arrived at my residence XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX stating i have two weeks to respond before they start a discovery and file in court. 5. I responded XX/XX/XXXX explaining all of the above. That i have not heard back regarding my offer to settle the debt and that i need to know who has the authority to provide me a letter stating how my credit reporting will be reflected once we settle this debt. I notified them that I have submitted a complaint with this Bureau. I know they will continue their intimidation tactics going for what they perceive as the full amount. I am stuck between Midland Credit & XXXX XXXX . I have in good faith offered to pay for the original value of the product even though it was defective in return for a positive credit reporting. What can be done to resolve this?
