I was never notified of this till XXXX XXXX  XXXX I started getting calls XXXX times a day from a XXXX XXXX and they were robot calls. I did not have an account with XXXX XXXX, so I kept trying to call back to see what this was all about and kept being hung up on. I paid the dollar and was never given credit for it. It wasn't till XXXX XXXX  XXXX that I was able to speak with someone and they said it was about my XXXX account being past due. When they told me that I owed XXXX and now it had late fees and interest now totaling over XXXX  XXXX dollars, I said I need to speak with a supervisor. Was placed on hold and told I had to pay or else. Then they hung up on me. I tried calling back with constant hang ups. The account finally was reported as a write off at XXXX. Since then, I have been deigned loan of XXXX and my credit cards interest has increased because of this. If you look at my payment history, you will see that my payment history was rates as exceptional. My score was over XXXX. At one time during this my score dropped to low XXXXXXXX XXXX. I always paid my bills and this is so unfair. I tried disputing through Experian and XXXX XXXX  said no.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Problem with personal statement of dispute

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2022, TransUnion sent me information regarding the investigation results pertaining to a recent dispute with the US Department of Education, as verified and accurate, and I the consumer in fact disagree with the results. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act there is a need to insure that the consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and respect for the consumer 's right to privacy and adopt reasonable procedures for meeting the needs for commerce for consumer credit, personnel, insurance, and other information in a manner which is fair and equitable to the consumer, with regard to the confidentiality, accuracy, relevance, and proper utilization of such information. 

15 USC 1681 ( e ) under FCRA INVESTIGATIVE CONSUMER REPORT If the information TransUnion investigated is accurate, I the consumer in fact demand that TransUnion provide me with the name of the person that was interviewed and all information shall not include Factual Information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. 

The investigation therefore is incomplete and displays unverifiable information that is inaccurate, unfair, and a violation of my consumer rights and privacy, which is a result of fraud and identity theft.

Complaint:
USAA Federal Savings Bank, is a banking institution for Members of the Military, Armed forces, and Those family members of the military and armed forced. I am not a member of the military and have never been. Additionally none of my family are members of the armed forces either, so therefore I would not be eligible for membership in USAA. USAA Allowed A Personal loan account to be opened and membership, along with a checking and savings from a thief that was using stolen identification documents, and my email address which I had to have XXXX assist in recovering. USAA Is reporting this account not only inaccurately to the credit bureaus but this account is FRAUD. They sent all the funds and documents to this USAA Account, I did not open this account nor did I receive documentation from any of these accounts. This personal loan and any accounts with USAA that resulted from Identity theft need to be resolved, However USAA continues to report it to the credit bureaus claiming this account is mine. This is not my account that I am listing below, I have not authorized any accounts to be opened with this bank. I am not a member of the military and I AM a victim of identity theft my wallet was stolen, my mail was forwarded and my email address was hacked. I want this corrected promptly and removed from my credit report, as I did not receive any funds from this and this account was not authorized. It was opened from a thief using my stolen identity. 

Fraudulent Account # - XXXX Balance {$15000.00} Opened XX/XX/2018, My Fraud alert was placed on my file on XX/XX/2018, Therefore again It's obvious I am a victim of identity theft. My Affidavit is below and attached to this complaint. Please remove the inaccurately reporting account that you are listing as paid {$0.00} for payments as well as 3 past due payments, all are which inaccurate because I don't bank or have business with USAA. This was a fraudster.

Company: ARS National Services, Inc.
State: CO
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: I do not know
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Used obscene, profane, or other abusive language

Complaint:
A man called looking for my Father, regarding my father 's personal small business. I asked him to clarify and he cursed and hung up on me. 

I called him back and another person answered the phone, she said the company that contacted me was " ARS national services ''. This information took asking for at least 5 minutes what the company was. 

What alarms me is that both persons who answered the phone insisted that the first call was for my Mother, not my father and that it was to discuss her small business. Both of which are lies, my parents do not own small businesses, and in fact my father works within the federal government. This supposed debt collection company is calling the children of alleged debtors under the false pretense of small business. 

I was ultimately transferred to a supervisor who tried to deflect and ultimately used subversive tactics to end the line of inquiry to the original phone call. 

They have also called me on multiple concurrent days at odd hours from several different phone numbers and are generally obscene and hostile.
