Consumer Narrative
I lost my job due to medical issues in XXXX. I had over {$40000.00} in medical bills, so I filed for bankruptcy. It was XXXX in XXXX. This is on my credit report. I asked the court if they reported this to the Credit Bureau, and was told no, that they do not report to any agency. I have a letter from the court stating this, and I have tried to get this removed, and the credit reporting agency has ignored me. I didn't go out and buy things. My health and not having insurance put me in that spot. I was in a car accident on XX/XX/XXXX, and not my fault. Section 15 U.S. Code 1681- Congressional findings and statement of purpose states that information should be reported fairly and equitably to the consumer, with regard to the confidentiality, accuracy, relevancy, and proper utilization of such information in accordance with the requirements of this subchapter.
