Complaint:
My son has a youth checking account with USAA. He was the victim of a crime and USAA 's policies contributed. 

A scammer contacted my son on the internet and convinced him to deposit 2 checks for {$4000.00} each and transfer back a smaller amount using XXXX. 

As a USAA account holder, my son was targeted for this scam. Scammers know that : 1 ) USAA provides immediate access to large sums of money via mobile check deposit ( other financial institutions give access only to {$200.00} and wait 1 week for the rest ) 2 ) USAA 's youth spending limits are broken. USAA allowed my son to transfer out {$3500.00} to the scammer despite my setting a limit of {$3000.00}.

Complaint:
To Whom It May Concern : I received a copy of my credit report with the intention of trying to improve my credit and take care of my responsibilities and noticed a few accounts that I wanted a little more explanation on. I am not saying they are reporting right or wrong. I am just saying that I am not 100 percent sure if they are. I also read something called the Fair Credit Reporting Act where it said by law, I had the right to challenge anything I am not sure is accurate. Some of the people reporting things on me, I have never heard of which made me write to you all. Are you familiar with something called 15 U.S.C. Sec. 1681i ( a )? I heard that if you cant provide proof, these accounts must be deleted. Well I want these accounts deleted if they are not 100 percent right and correct. So, could you please check on these and get back to me? I saw on a Credit Site and Board where this lawyer said you have 30 days to complete this investigation. Please investigate the following accounts and remove them if anything is missing or not correct on them. 

Collection Account : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Please investigate if every piece of information is correct. If not, please remove it from my credit report. 

Account : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account XXXX Account : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Account : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Please investigate if every piece of information is correct on the reported late payment history. If the late payments are not reporting 100 percent accurate, please remove them from this account and update the account as paid as agreed I also read where I can get the updated report after you investigate this from the Free Lawyer guy. Could you please send it to me? Also, please let me know who had access to my file as well. I want the investigation outcome to be sent to the address. 

Thank you for your time and help in this matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Complaint:
I have written several letters to XXXX, XXXX, & Transunion about an account on my credit report " XXXX XXXX ''. Each time the dispute results says the account is verified. I have written letters and contacted XXXX XXXX several times and either I got no response or they could not find any information with my name on it. I finally got a letter from them after many months of disputing this account stating that the account reporting could not be located. How are you conducting your investigations? Are you really doing a true investigation? Where are you getting your information? If the company could never provide me with information and now I finally got a letter that says " account could not be located '' are you really doing an investigation on my account. Now I have questions about other accounts that I have disputed and wondering if you are accurately doing an investigation.

I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding my persistent and unsuccessful attempts to dispute fraudulent items on my credit report. Despite numerous efforts, these inaccuracies persist, adversely affecting my creditworthiness. 

The fraudulent items I am disputing are as follows : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/2022 I have taken the following actions to address this issue : I initiated my first dispute with your bureau, providing all the necessary documentation to support my claims, including detailed explanations of the fraudulent nature of these items.

Subsequently, I followed up to check on the status of my dispute and request updates on the investigation.

Despite my repeated attempts to rectify this situation, the fraudulent items remain on my credit report, causing severe financial distress and harming my creditworthiness.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) mandates the accurate reporting of consumer credit information. It is of utmost importance that my credit report reflects my financial history accurately and that these fraudulent entries are promptly removed.

I kindly request that you take immediate action to investigate and resolve this issue by removing the fraudulent items from my credit report. Timely resolution of this matter is crucial for my financial stability. Failure to address this issue within the specified time frame may compel me to escalate my complaint to regulatory authorities and seek legal remedies.

Enclosed with this letter are copies of the relevant documents, including previous dispute correspondence, supporting evidence, and any additional documentation requested during previous disputes.

Complaint:
I have disputed many inaccurate items on my TransUnion credit report. TransUnion did not respond in a timely manner so I sent them a letter indicating they had not complied within the required 30 days. A few days l received an 'updated ' TransUnion credit report in the mail with no changes. I sent TransUnion another letter requesting they describe the method of verification used to validate and verify the disputed items. In response to that letter, TransUnion sent me yet another letter telling me that I had already disputed the items and that they were refusing to take further action. TransUnion has never truly verified or validated these items on my credit report, they have only sent me generic, computer-generated, canned responses to my inquiries.
