      I am currently a client of a debt settlement company. I have multiple loans that I am trying to settle on. This company continues to call me every day. Disrupting my workday. It is really nerve-racking sometimes. And I wish they would stop. I’ve been a customer with this company for A long time. I’ve always been my payments on time. When I first started this program. I had not heard from this company in two months.

      This creditor has different last activity dates reported on 3 bureaus, different balance and also different balance on each bureaus. In Fair Credit Reporting Act that all bureaus must ensure the accuracy on each credit report but what is this? what's happening on my credit report? It's all different that's why I want these to be deleted ASAP!!

      I paid off this account earlier this year. Once I paid off the account with the rep over the phone. They stated it would take up to 60 days for the account to be removed from my credit report. It's still reflecting on my credit report. I would like for the item to be removed from my credit report like promise.

      Thanks.
