Consumer Narrative

I have asked for validation and proof of validation of this debt multiple times and have never received anything from the company, they falsely report information on the account on all three bureaus they dont own the debt but have readded it to my credit so many times it now shows up as them being the original creditor. I have asked to be provided with an MOV from the bureaus as to how this information was verified and also have not received anything. They add fees randomly throughout the month but have not verified they are allowed to do that or what the fee is even for as my interest on the collection account says XXXX. They have deleted it from my credit report on equifax and TransUnion multiple times just to add it back on there the same day with a higher amount owed then the last time. And still no one not the bureaus or the company has provided me with ANY type of debt validation.
