On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, I faxed a dispute letter and subsequently certified mailed the same package to BBS. It is now XXXX XXXX, XXXX, 56 days later and and I have not received a written response to my dispute at my current address from neither company. Per the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 611 ( 5 ) ; Treatment of Inaccurate or Unverifiable information ( A ) In General- If, after any reinvestigation under paragraph ( 1 ) of any information disputed by a consumer, an item of the information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency shall- ( i ) promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer, or modify that item of information, as appropriate, based on the results of the reinvestigation ; and ii ) promptly notify the furnisher of that information that the information has been modified or deleted from the file of the consumer. 41 days after not receiving a written response, I filed a claim against both companies with the consumer financial protection bureau. In their response to the CFPB on XXXX XXXX, XXXX, they clearly state that they sent the initial validation notice to XXXX Wyoming ( no proof of address or number ). I have never visited, lived, nor have any associations to Wyoming whatsoever. The only documents that BBS has provided thus far are the lease docs from the original creditor. They have not provided any tangible evidence that the erroneous charges are valid. They have not provided proof that they even sent a letter to Wyoming, Colorado or XXXX, Texas. I believe anything produced by them at this point would be fabricated as anything is possible with them.They have not provided proof that they have attempted to contact me 6 times in a year. They have not provided photographic evidence justifying the {$1900.00} charge on my credit report. There is no proof that I acknowledged this debt in any way. They DID manage to admit wrong doing in sending a notification in XXXX XXXX to the wrong person at the wrong address at the wrong time. Enclosed you will find military orders assigning me from XXXX XXXX, CO to XXXX XXXX, TX dated XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was reassigned from XXXX XXXX, Colorado to Texas in XXXX of XXXX. It took this company 5 months to send a validation notice to the wrong address thus ruining my credit. Bonded also stated in their response It is BBS policy to report no sooner than 32 days after the account is listed. This gives ample time for the consumer to receive the first notice and be aware of the debt. How can I be aware of this erroneous debt if they sent it to Wyoming and Im in Texas? This is against the law! The attached military orders are the only documents that allow XXXX XXXX Soldiers to break/terminate an XXXX XXXX due to military obligation. Are they trying to compensate for lost rent? The original creditor, The XXXX at XXXX XXXX, was provided a copy of these orders along with a forwarding address for my security deposit and a phone number that has not changed to this day. I have done everything that I can to prove this debt is not mine and I want it deleted off of my credit file. Enclosed find a copy of the receipt showing when this creditor received my credit dispute and a copy of my original letter showing the account I have disputed. Since they initially failed to validate this debt accurately within the 30 day time period and clearly admitted wrongdoing to the CFPB in the procedure of listing a debt, they must delete the disputed account from my report. They must now delete the disputed and unverified account. Failure to do so can result in a {$1000.00} fine per undeleted item and I have contacted my lawyer in preparation to sue for punitive damages. Time is of the essence and this must be deleted ASAP with a letter mailed to each credit bureau and myself stating this is removed from my credit record. I have missed out on multiple opportunities with buying a home in XXXX, TX due to this fradulent debt on my credit report! XXXX is enough!!! DELETE!

I need Bonded business ltd to explain why they are not removing this erroneous debt. As per their first CFPB response to my complaint on XX/XX/XXXX, they initially sent a validation notice to XXXX Wyoming in XX/XX/XXXX. I have NEVER been associated with that state therefore I have never received it. In their second response on XX/XX/XXXX, they sent the validation letter to my previous address at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX five months after I moved XXXX. Why would you send a validation letter to an address that you KNOW I don't live in anymore? No forwarding mail, emails or calls were sent to my home address. My forwarding address at the time was XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, with my number being XXXX. This was my address since I purchased the home in XX/XX/XXXX until it was sold on XX/XX/XXXX, even tho I served in XXXX XXXX, XXXX from XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX. I left this information with apartment manager XXXX and the receptionist of the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX After months of waiting AND calling the office, I was told my deposit check had been mailed although I never received it. I need a copy of the letter that Bonded claimed they initially mailed to XX/XX/XXXX, then XX/XX/XXXX along with a log of the attempted phone calls preferably time stamped. My phone number has not changed in over 10 years. This company is not legally permitted to collect in XX/XX/XXXX. This company is reporting a debt on my credit report that another company has. The other company, nationwide recovery, could NOT provide information on my account and stated that they are not listing this on my credit report. They could not even verify my account or validate charges. This is my last attempt to have Bonded and XXXX remove this debt. If no compliance is made within a timely manner, I will sue for damages. I have military orders sending me to XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX in XXXX of XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX had my forwarding address and phone number on file. BONDED BUSINESS HAS CLEARLY LISTED THS DEBT ILLEGALLY WITH NO VALIDATION. If this is not resolved in the time it takes them to respond to this complaint, they will be hearing from my lawyer. I will use the money they have illegally listed as debt to sue them ASAP. I will also be sending a copy of all correspondence to the office of XX/XX/XXXX Attorney General XXXX XXXX.

The Original creditor was an apartment complex named the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, located in XXXX XXXX. The debt was then passed along to Bonded Services without any written notification that I owed them. The debt was then placed on my credit report stating that I owed over {$1900.00}. During the 30 day waiting period to receive my deposit back, I called XXXX XXXX ( manager ) and the receptionist with an updated address and phone number to forward the check. 45 days later, the check nor any type of letter or phone call was sent to the address. After disputing with the new creditor about these questionable practices, they only sent me a copy of the lease contract that I signed upon moving in. There was no letter stating that they had mailed a debt collection letter, attempted a phone call or email of any sort. I am attaching the letter that I sent them on XX/XX/2017 along with additional proof asking them to remove this debt from my credit reports. To date, its still on my credit report. I 'm not looking for sympathy, but I 'm a XXXX veteran who ca n't work, with XXXX defendants and they are preventing me from purchasing a home here in XXXX, TX. While browsing the internet for apt reviews, I noticed a trend with this place. Soldiers who reside at this apartment complex are most commonly denied their money back and charged excessively for notional damages. I lived in this apartment alone for 12 months with no kids and no pets. How does one accumulate {$1900.00} in damages in 12 months? Maybe the Quality of carpet needs to change or someone needs to conduct some sort of property inspection. I 've seen the maintenance guys load a garage with old carpet on numerous occasions. I was even told that they are known to replace a tenants carpet with older carpet to justify the charges. Soldiers are an easy target because once we leave, most likely we will never come back ( military orders ) and could possibly end up overseas or combat. Not only would I like assistance on this matter, but I would like to see this business ' procedure for placing debt on credit reports. Im XXXX and have all day to write dispute letters. What about the guys who cant or do n't have access to the internet? Thank you for your time

I was served from Bonded Business Services, LTD in XXXX XXXX , the information says I need to file information for a debt I owe. In XXXX XXXX I bought our house and part of the loan was paying off anything listed on my credit report. Part of those were accounts owed t o Bonded Business Services and I have record from my loan company that they had been paid. In XXXX XXXX I received noticed of debt owed to Bonded Business Services a nd I called them to dispute, I was told then my accounts had been paid so I moved on and thought nothing of it, figured it was only a communication error. I was told on that day the accounts had been paid in XXXX XXXX . It has been confirmed with Bonded Business Services this had taken place and is in the notes. Since I was served now in XXXX XXXX , I was confused and calle d Bonded Business S ervices to once again clear up the confusion. I was called back by a XXXX XXXX who identified herself as an employee o f Bonded Business Services. In speaking with XXXX XXXX she advised me that they accounts I show as paid were different accounts and I still have a judgement against me for another account. She never verified which accounts were for what, only stated I had paid XXXX services. I think asked when I was notified of this and she mentioned I was notified in XXXX XXXX , she stated she saw in the notes that I had called and had been advised " the accounts had been paid '' I told XXXX XXXX that was the only notification I had received and had called to dispute and was advised my accounts were paid, which she said confirmed that other than being served there are no records of other attempts to collect the debt or allow me to dispute further. This is an error on Bonded Business Services, I am not convinced I owe the debt and I certainly should not be held liable for their error. I was advised my accounts had been paid, even XXXX XXXX verified I had been told that but they will not help me further.

I'm so confused and I need help. This is approximatly my 10th attempt to get this unvalidated debt off of my credit report. Bonded Business of Colorado is illegally listing {$2000.00} as a collection. I've disputed with them more times than I can remember, and they can only provide lease agreement. That is NOT a valid form of validation for {$2000.00} debt. My signature stating that I lived in that same apartment complex TWICE in 3 years between a 12 month XXXX XXXX does NOT constitute a validation of these erroneous charges. I've attempted to speak professionaly with them and they hung up in my face three times, and my wife twice within a matter of one minute. They will not communicate with me, they will not validate my debt according to the fair credit reporting act, and the debt isn't listed with the company. The debt is " supposedly '' passed over to XXXX XXXX. I then called " XXXX ''. They stated that they have no idea what debt I'm referring to and then recommended me to call Bonded Business, who told me to call XXXX who told us to call bonded. They gave us the run around! We called Bonded Business, and they hung up after saying " pay me ''. This company is the single most unprofessional business I have ever seen. The rep sounded as if she was inebriated and basically ignored my questions while reading script. The bottom line is Bonded Business bought a bad debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$1400.00}, XXXX XXXX hasn't even validated nor responded to my initial dispute from XX/XX/XXXX2017. As you can see, they won't respond to the XXXX XXXX XXXX of Colorado either. I need this corrected as Bonded admittedly stated that the initial debt letter was sent to XXXX Wyoming. I have never been associated with Wyoming in any way. The company has obviously made a mistake in identity and now refuse to remove from my report. They are not legally licensed or permitted to collect in Texas.

During XX/XX/XXXX I paid a medical collection item directly to collection agency Bonded Business Services. The payment was for {$220.00}. The item was a result of an insurance company dispute that was resolved. I paid the item with the understanding that Bonded Business Services would remove the item from all three credit reporting agencies as it required to under FCRA XX/XX/XXXX. Bonded Business has refused to do so despite three letter demands. Bonded Business should remove any and all information re this paid medical debt,

While I was inundated with XXXX XXXX, multiple XXXX, XXXX and related needs for same and unable to take care of any of the obvious needs, a judgement was issued. I attempted to contact the debtor and get the information but have not received a verification of debt. The debtor has attempted to garnish the bank account and this is the only means of survival since our only income is Social Security Benefits. We have since received a pattern interrogatory from them.
