Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem

Complaint:
Looked at my Experian report on XX/XX/2020 and the report dispute results show that the Bankruptcies were taken off. I log back on today, XX/XX/2020 only to see that the bankruptcies are put back on my credit report without no letter sent explaining why nor did experian send me a 5 day notice for reinsertion. Nor did experian respond to my letter regarding that I sent stating : Dear Credit Bureau ( Experian, XXXX or XXXX  ), I am exercising my right under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609, to request information regarding an item that is listed on my consumer credit report.

[ List account names and account numbers ] As per section 609, I am entitled to see the source of the information, which is the original contract that contains my signature. 

As proof of my identity, I have included copies of my police report and utility bill. I am requesting an investigation not a verification regarding these erroneous bankruptcies and the accounts in dispute that are up under the bankruptcies that do not belong to me. I am a Nevadian and have been for almost 10 years. Remove immediately! 

If you are unable to verify the account with the original contract, the information should be removed from my credit report within 30 days. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX PER FCRA LAWS : FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681I ) PROCEDURE IN CASE OF DISPUTED ACCURACY The FCRA states that your information may not be reinserted on your credit file by the credit reporting agency unless the furnisher of the information certified that the information is, in fact, true and accurate. Furthermore, the consumer reporting agency is required to send the consumer written notification within five business days that the information has been reinserted and prove the credit reporting agency sent in the proper documentation validating the accounts. if you successfully disputed and had a delinquent account on your credit report removed, the credit reporting agency could only put the account back on your report if it received information from the company that the account was accurate and if it provided you with notice that the account was placed back on your report along with the documentation.

We still don't know how this amount was established but payment was due immediately. We tried to work out payment plan to pay this amount by installment payment but was refused.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: OR
Product: Credit card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers
Sub-issue: Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card

Complaint:
I noticed while looking at my Costco Anywhere Citicard rewards that it had acknowledged and accepted the charges at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, but was only giving me a 1 % reward for those purchases. When I contacted them, first I was forced to use a bot to try and elicit information, to no avail. Then I was able to live chat with a representative, named XXXX ( according to the system ), who proceeded to tell me that all grocery store gas stations are exempt from this. I then proceeded to ask why this wasn't made clear or available to customers, without knowing they needed to ask for the additional detail regarding the 4 % vs 1 % on gas purchases. 
According to both Citi and Costco 's website 's they state the offer is : " 4 % Cash back on eligible gas and electric vehicle ( EV ) charging purchases worldwide, including gas and EV charging at Costco for the first {$7000.00} per year, and then 1 % thereafter. '' They do not provide the details up front of what is considered eligible. It took specifically asking, after noticing I hadn't received my rewards properly, to get the full details, including a pre-meditated list of gas stations that wouldn't be eligible for the " 4 % cashback '' I believe that this is not only false advertising, but also an anti-competitive strategy agreed upon by both Citi and Costco. 

Thanks for your time.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Complaint:
To Whom It May Concern, Please be advised that I have received your computer-generated letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third-party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 

You were advised by me on XX/XX/2022 by certified mail that I questioned the accuracy of a few items on my credit reports. That request was written by me and mailed by me- not a third-party agency. It appears obvious to me that you are abusing your power under the FCRA to escape a complete investigation. 

Here again is the incorrect information being reported : 1. Under 15 USC 1666B this is a billing error always paid as agreed on time this is an error this account in violation. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX THIS ACCOUNT IS INACCURATE, I DID NOT INCUR ANY LATE PAYMENTS. PLEASE UPDATE TO PAID ON TIME 2. Under 15 USC 1666B this is a billing error always paid as agreed on time this is an error this account in violation. 
XXXX Account Number : XXXX THIS ACCOUNT IS INACCURATE, I DID NOT INCUR ANY LATE PAYMENTS. PLEASE UPDATE TO PAID ON TIME Additionally, there is NO law that states a consumer can not use a third party, so using that as your excuse is an irrelevant. In fact, the United States Congress has found the whole process so overwhelming that they afford consumers the right to use a third party on their behalf if the consumer so chooses. This is why your statement is so shameful. 

I reserve the right to sue a credit bureau for violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and I believe I can prove that you did not use reasonable measures to ensure the accuracy of my credit reports and now you are stalling the process even further. 

I realize disputes can be expensive and it is your job to stall them, but you do so at great risk. Please take notice that this letter dated XX/XX/2022 is formal notice to you that I am requesting that you continue forward with my original investigation request and please send the results to me within 15 days. I therefore legally and lawfully refuse your " form letter '' thus giving you only 15 days not 30 more. 

I am annoyed and outraged at your accusation and I have researched my rights in regards to my credit file. Please expedite my original request immediately.
