Complaint What Happened Bull City Collection Agency has placed a claim against my credit report ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) for not making payment to XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX. I found this out as I was trying to buy a new vehicle and was declined the loan due to poor credit - my credit has declined from XXXX to XXXX I called Bull City Collection to find out more and they provided me with an account number, I called XXXX XXXX to find out why they placed a claim against me, they ( XXXX XXXX ) told me the account number I provided does not match my personal information. Again I called Bull City collection Back and informed them of the account number not being associated with my personal info or social. Bull City hung up on me and putting me on hold for XXXX. Having access to 2 phones I was able to get both Bull City Collection and XXXX XXXX on speaker talking to each other, XXXX from XXXX XXXX was very helpful in confirming account number provided in Bull City Collection claim did not match my personal info nor social Bull City Collection still has not removed this claim from the credit bureau and is refusing, as they claim only XXXX XXXX can reverse this claim. Conversely XXXX XXXX responded with : the claim has been submitted ( to a different person ) and unfortunately we don't have the option to undo anything I have proof of my own utility bills going as far back as XXXX which I will be attaching to this submission - The system is failing when its so easy to put claims on one 's credit report without even notifying them, yet its near impossible to reverse even though both parties agree they have the wrong identity on file

Complaint What Happened We have requested multiple times through XXXX XXXX, XXXX and Bull Financial the validity of in item on my credit report without any proof or confirmation. We have disputed an item from Bull City Financial Solution # XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, NC XXXX Phone # XXXX and have even called on a number of occasions and still no documented proof of this negative mark on my credit account. This item was place on my credit report on XX/XX/XXXX for {$110.00} and since then I have been denied credit ( s ) and has effected my right to credit etc. I have requested from all parties XXXX XXXX, Bull Financial, XXXX documented proof of such bill or to have it removed accordingly. I have stated that this bill is not mine as there was a XXXX XXXX residency issue where we received two bills as there were more than one resident showing on XXXX files for our legal address and then was corrected by XXXX XXXX but now it appears this issue/debt was passed onto us. As stated before we believe this is not our bill and have demanded/requested we see this bill / debt validity before paying from all parties with the account detail from the month we were in residency to the final month of residency to confirm this debt that we are disputing shows this valid amount and not just a rollover of this issue into our credit etc. Here are our contact listed : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( spoke to XXXX ) File Number : XXXX and reported XX/XX/XXXX and again XX/XX/XXXX first dispute and second dispute closure. As a result XXXX XXXX states they can only confirm the accuracy if Bull FinanciaXXXX states it is valid and not actually verifying the actual debt. This does not make a debt valid by verifying only one side without actually verifying the debt as we are the ones disputing this item and have the right to see a debt as valid before paying. We also contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX and they stated they can not provide proof and must go through credit debtor Bull City Financial # XXXX for files confirmation. We contacted Bull City Financial XXXX ( spoke to XXXX with no resolution and no evidence of said bill disputing ) as he states can not provide proof of such debt and we have waited since XX/XX/XXXX to today XX/XX/XXXX and have to receive any confirmation of said debt or proof of its validity and refuse to pay this debt without this proof as out rights to pay a debt is being violated and forced to pay an unknown debt or have it remain a negative mark on my credit report. I am filing this report as none of the entities described above can provide proof nor remove from my credit report and attempting to bypass my right to confirm and pay or remove as an invalid debt.

Complaint What Happened I pulled a annual credit report and noticed an unknown account on my credit report. Last date reported XX/XX/XXXX. This account looks like it was opened XX/XX/XXXX by Bull City Financial Solutions in the amount of {$1200.00}. I do not recognize this account. I believe someone has falsely used my name and used my personal information without my consent.

Complaint What Happened Bull City collection purchased a so calledDebt from XXXX XXXX and has never contacted me but has put the into my credit report listing a recent date as the date of the the debt. He has also listed a made up amount for this debt of more than {$600.00}. First this would have been more than 4 years ago. As I have not had electric in my name for over 4 years. Secondly XXXX XXXX would never have allowed us to have a balance that high. We did n't even heat with electric ... it was propane. I recall making a final payment for a partial month when we moved at the time I called them to have it turned off. I tried to get a copy of that from my bank but they had already archived it & said it was not retrieveable. I am XXXX years old & have worked real hard on my credit because I live with my son & his wife & XXXX kids & we were trying to get a loan to buy a house ( size of our family causes us problems finding one we can afford & is large enough ). We had signed a contract on a house that was accepted & we were waiting to close. Then when they checked my credit again the Bull City. collection was on there. We lost the House. We now live in a XXXX in XXXX, KY infested with mice and roaches. We pay $ XXXX for this. This is not fair. I filed bankruptcy over 7 years ago when I lost my house of 34 years in the XXXX XXXX melt down. The only negative thing on my credit is that XXXX XXXX report which is wrong. I have XXXX credit cards XXXX of which I paid off. I have never once been late on any of them. I do n't know what is going to become of us. Please help me.

Complaint What Happened According to the report it states that in XX/XX/XXXX this account was delinquent for XXXX dollars from XXXX XXXX. I was never contacted about this debt. Not by email, phone, mail, nothing. This shouldve been paid with my deposit that was given when the electric was turned on. I was never sent a check from my deposit either. I believe in XXXX of XXXX is was sold to XXXX XXXX financial. Who also NEVER contacted me, not by email or phone, or mail. I checked my credit score and found they had added this as a collection. On XX/XX/XXXX I attempted to contact XXXX XXXX and upon discussion with someone they were unable to provide me with any documentation. She had no information on my account, only that XXXX dollars was owed. She didnt know what for, there was no indication of a check being sent to me, or a final bill that was showing unpaid. She prompted me to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX. Upon calling them I asked for any information to be send to me, which they claim they did via mail but I have yet to receive anything. Told them they needed to take this off of my credit report as there is NO documentation of why I have this debt. He refused and said the only way is for me to pay it.

Complaint What Happened XXXX XXXX added a collection in XX/XX/2017. I contacted them directly in XXXX of this year and again in XXXX of this year. The representative I spoke to provided the account information as well as the address for the account. The address on file is an address I have never been associated with. In XXXX the representative and I went through the steps of filing a fraudulent account claim. They assured me that the account would be deleted from all 3 of my credit reports. In XXXX, the account was still reporting to all the bureaus. I contacted XXXX again and the representative said the only way to appropriately file the fraud case was to contact the collection company directly. I called the number to XXXX XXXX XXXX provided by the representative and the representative for the collection agency said that even though the account was not mine and a fraudulent claim was filed, the account would continue to stay on all 3 bureaus until the balance was either paid in full or settled. I have never had XXXX service in my name.
