Complaint:
I recently received a copy of my credit report, and I noticed some accounts on my consumer report that should not be on there. 
This agency is in violation of 15 USC 1692g. They were to notify me of this in writing 5 days prior, I was not notified. As the original creditor, only I can validate this debt. I do not validate this debt. Therefore, the following accounts must be deleted from my report immediately : List of accounts to be deleted as followed, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX all these accounts have been charged off as profit loss write offs and by law with accounts being over {$600.00} I was suppose to receive an 1099 from all companies in the mail which they have failed to do so how can I be charged for debt that has shown clearly it has been paid with write off and 1099s not mailed by law as stated.

The reporting of these account ( s ) is/are violations of 15 USC 1681 , and the Fair Credit Reporting Act [ 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( B ) ] : ( 2 ) EXCLUSIONS.Except as provided in paragraph ( 3 ), the term consumer report does not include ( B ) any authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or similar device. 
So let me explain. Under the Truth in Lending Act 15 USC 1602 ( g ), credit card is defined as the following : The term credit card means any card, plate, coupon book or other credit device existing for the purpose of obtaining, money, property, labor, or services on credit. 
This makes your social security card, drivers license/ID, and license plate credit cards that are/were used for the extension of credit. 
So, with that being said, with great power comes great responsibilities. It's really up to you how you want to use this information.

Complaint:
I signed up for an Citi Priority account with an account opening bonus. I was promised {$700.00} after depositing {$50000.00} for 60 days. I followed all bonus terms and I have not yet been paid. I have inquired multiple times with no resolution, and been promised the issue would be escalated internally. My most recent contact, on XX/XX/XXXX, ended with a rep informing me that my account was indeed qualified for the bonus and that it had not been paid. This, again, resulted in an internal escalation which I have little hope of being resolved without this requested intervention from the CFPB.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
Today was my last phone call attempt to resolve this with TransUnion before filing complaint. Once again, I was lied to with FCRA guidelines blatantly being disregarded and ignored. 
For the past twelve months I have tried and been unsuccessful in attempting to have TransUnion comply with FCRA guidelines, section 609. I have sent letters and faxes that have gone unanswered and have been ignored. When I call I am fraudulently told that Inquiries can not be disputed and that they are factual. Per FCRA 609 this is a lie. I am also told to file FTC report and only then will the inquiries be removed. I have filed FTC report and mailed to TransUnion via certified mail. TransUnion has placed fraud alert on my report but has refused to remove the inquiries and claim they have not received FTC report despite them being mailed certified mail. 
There are inquiries on my report that do not belong to me. Per FCRA guidelines section 609, if an inquiry doesn't belong to the consumer and there is no permissable purpose with no signed authorization by the consumer then the Credit Bureaus must remove the inquiry. TransUnion blatantly ignores the FCRA guidelines and is blatantly violating FCRA and my consumer rights. Furthermore, I have contacted the businesses in question ; I am told they were never contacted by TransUnion, I am told they can't find an application or authorized signature from me and they tell me to contact TransUnion. Then TransUnion gives me complete runaround. For TransUnion to lie and say inquiries can not be disputed, to claim they have not received FTC report but to place fraud alert on my report is blatant indication that they have no regard for the law or consumer rights. Per FCRA, I am allowed to sue for monetary compensation should I pursue legal action. I demand that TransUnion comply and remove the unauthorized and inaccurate inquiries on my credit report.

Complaint:
Experian has furnished several incorrect items on my credit report and have had to remove them at my request because of inaccuracy. They were never supposed to furnish the incorrect and invalid information in the first place. These discrepancies have caused damage to my credit file and delayed me from getting things done in my personal life. They are also still not removing some more information that I have told them was not accurate. If they got these inaccurate and invalidated accounts on my file and had to remove them, there is no telling what other information they have that is incorrect. It is their job to handle all consumer files with fairness and respect for the consumers right to privacy, and Experian is not doing that.
