Issue: Improper use of your report

Subissue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Consumer Complaint: Good day, I have repeatedly requested a contract with my signature on it giving this company the authority to report my personal, and financial information. This company has failed to do so on many occasions. I have filed complaints with the XXXX XXXX XXXX along with the CFPB and still have not gotten any authorization disclosure with my signature allowing this entity to report my information. The company responds with correspondence in attempts to have me provide my social security number, address, and other personal information. However, my dispute with the company is who gave them authorization to have my social security number in the first place. I need you to have a consumer affairs agent respond with that disclosure or comply to my settlement demand for damages suffered by the fraudulent business practices preformed by this company. Sincerely : XXXX XXXX

Issue: Improper use of your report

Subissue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Consumer Complaint: 15USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) clearly states that transactions between the consumer and the Person/Corporation making the report is NOT included on the consumer reports. Yet XXXX is reporting this information.. The reporting of excluded information pursuant to 15USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) on a consumer report is a clear violation of Metro2 compliance. Provide me with the Metro2 compliance disclosure on reporting transactions to a consumer reporting agency. I need the transactions reporting as late, collection/charge-off status and any other derogatory information deleted from my consumer reports effective immediately. Before you think to reply that this account has been " validated ', let 's be clear that I am not asking you to validate or verify anything. So please do not respond by telling me that as a tactic to waste my valuable time. Some of the negative accounts have been placed in Collection/Charge-Off Status WITHOUT mailing me a copy of IRS form 1099-C Cancellation of Debt. XXXX and the creditors reporting collections/Charge-Offs, late payments/other derogatory information in my consumer reports are in violation of 26 USC ss 6050P Returns Relating to the Cancellation of Indebtedness By Certain Entities. If this derogatory account information is not deleted from my consumer reports within 30 days, I will be forced to officially file IRS form 3949A : Information Referral AND IRS form 211 : Application For Award For Original Information Overview with the Internal Revenue Service against ALL entities involved.
