Complaint:
I accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, The list of the accounts below have violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 U.S.C 1681 ; 15 U.S.C 602 ( a ) ; 15 U.S.C 1681 602 A section 2 ; 15 U.S.C 1681 c ( a ) ( 5 ) ; 1581 U.S.C 1681 s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ). 

The accounts are listed with XXXX, Equifax and XXXX incorrectly and they are as follows : 1. XXXX XXXX XXXX Reported XXXX XX/XX/XXXX ; listed as date opened on XX/XX/XXXX and listed differently on Equifax and XXXX as well but with different opening dates. These are not reported the same and are not accurate ; 2. DEPT of EDUCATION : There are 15 different accounts listed under Dept of Education and XXXX XXXX XXXX ; The open dates on XXXX are all listed the same as XX/XX/XXXX, Equifax and XXXX have them all listed with separate individual dates that are completely different from the open dates on XXXX. The XXXX report has the dates on all as closed XX/XX/XXXX and then listed as reopend on XX/XX/XXXX. These dates are listed differently on the other XXXX reports and each of the opening dates are different days from the other. None of these reports match opening dates and closing dates on any of these accounts. 

The next account has XXXX listed as the original creditor and XXXX XXXX XXXX as collections agency. The opening and closing dates for this account differ on all 3 reports as well. They do not match therefore the info inaccurate. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX ; This account is listed as opening XXXX of XXXX and states that the account is closed. I am paying on this account from a Trust fund. It automatically comes from the account every month and its listed as closed on my reports but I am still paying. This accounts dates differ in all 3 credit reporting bureaus and therefore is inaccurate. 
My name is also listed differently on all XXXX reports. This is inaccurate as well. My last name is not XXXX and hasn't been in over 25 years. This is another inaccurate report and is hindering my getting anything done having to do with my protected info because my name is listed wrong and doesn't match the info I input, which is correct but not according to this report because its wrong.

Issue: Other transaction problem

Complaint:
. I received a text stating a fraudulent charge of {$2400.00} from XXXX XXXX in XXXX had occurred. 
2. After hitting " No '' on the text which I thought came from Citi, I immediately got a phone call from someone claiming to be from Citibank fraud department asking to verify that activity. XXXX was number who called me. 
3. I then started getting texts of codes that I thought were from Citibank as the caller said and wanted me to read the numbers back to him to verify my account. 
4. Then I was given a new temporary password over the phone which I entered into my account.

5. The caller verified the last 5 transactions on my account so I thought I was talking to Citibank.

6. Then while still on the phone, I got another text asking me if I had just sent a XXXX to a XXXX XXXX. I was then under the impression further fraud was being attempted on my account. 
7. The caller told me the only way to stop the XXXX attempts was to " max out '' my XXXX amount for the day by sending it to a XXXX account in the Citi fraud department that would be set up as a new recipient with my name. See screenshot of the number that was put in by someone else as the Citibank account recipient. I was told I was " sending the money to myself '' as part of Citi 's fraud department attempt to secure my account. 
8. Caller told me to send {$2500.00} to this XXXX number where they had put my name. I do not know this number, nor did I set it up as a recipient. The hacker did this in my account and sent the money. 
I then became suspicious and hung up the call and called Citibank to report the fraudulent activity. 

I do not know the recipient of these stolen funds or do I have their number in any contacts on my phone. I was hacked into believing someone from Citi was on the phone with me.

Complaint:
Hi, I received a notification this morning that a collection was added to my credit report. I can testify never received a phone call or written notification from this debt collector named " IC SYSTEM ". This activity dropped my credit score by 45 points. This is so frustrating! I have never dealt with anyone from this company " IC SYSTEM ". They are trying to collect  {$320.00} on behalf of XXXX. I have no knowledge of this debt. I dealt with XXXX in the past, but this looks so strange to me because I returned the equipment. That was the one thing I owed them. Equipment was returned! And I have never received a final bill or something stating I owe XXXX money. Why big company like this can be negligent? Thanks for helping me in this matter.

Consumer complaint received 2019-08-28
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: WA
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Other problem getting your report or credit score

Complaint:
I get my FICO credit score as a monthly benefit of my Costco/Citi VISA credit card account. In XXXX of 2019, it suddenly dropped from XXXX to XXXX. I have been trying since that time to find out why. I've also gotten my free annual credit report from XXXX   which shows no adverse information whatsoever. The only financial transaction that I've made since XXXX that would impact my credit score was to pay off the small balance remaining on an installment contract a few months early. 

My calls to Citibank have been especially fruitless. Every customer service agent that I talk to gives me a different story, but each essentially says that there is nothing they can tell me or do to get answers from Citibank. I've asked to speak to supervisors, but none will do that. Several have told me to contact XXXX, which I have done. XXXX tells me there is nothing in my credit report that would justify any drop in my credit score, let alone such a large one. They also claim that they only pass my credit information on to Citibank, not provide a score. Neither will give me any way to contest or get my score reviewed. I'm caught in a Catch-22. 

My credit score hasn't been below the low 800s for years. I own my home with no mortgage, have a low 6 figure annual income and high 5 figure amount in my savings and checking accounts. I've never had a bankruptcy, unpaid bill or even a late payment in my life. My only debt is 2 credit cards that I've had for years. I keep the month end balance of each card below {$1000.00} by making interim payments before each of their month end dates, then pay off the entire statement balance each month. 

I hope the CFPB can help me get answers.
