Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
Since XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX tried to debit over {$3000.00} out of my account instead of {$660.00}, my normal payment. After XXXX contacted me about the unusual amount trying to be debited from my account XXXX XXXX has insisted that I have been behind in my payments. Ally has stated that since XX/XX/XXXX I have not been paying within the 30 day thresh hold but yet and still my online mobile account shows payments for each month, late but paid. 
There was a question about a returned payment for XX/XX/XXXX. After sending the bank statement ( redacted ) which displayed the payment was available and withdrawn by XXXX XXXX, my credit report has been tarnished drastically by XXXX XXXX stating I am 4 months behind. I have all of the payment receipts and bank withdrawals. 
There were times when XXXX would debit the account due to autopay before my direct deposit was there and the bank would not honor the payment. I would manually make the payment the same day later in the afternoon and XXXX would resubmit the payment through the bank and it would come back as insufficient because I would have made the payment manually.

Complaint:
I've been disputing fraud accounts on my credit report since XX/XX/2021. I keep sending multiple sets of letters to the bureaus and the creditors so the excuse of " we didn't get it '' doesn't happen. Furthermore, each letter is certified mail with tracking and each letter shows signed and delivered and yet the bureaus are still not taking any actions. The accounts are not showing in dispute nor are they removed from my report. The accounts always show up with different name variations and different account number variations and yet the bureaus seem to ignore the trend and let these fraud accounts affect my credit score. I have requested the investigation to be initiated and also verifiable proof to be submitted should the account claim to be mine. Not only have I not received any mail showing the verifiable proofs needed to justify the accounts to be on my report, I haven't even received any letters at all stating the investigations have begun. Per the FCRA and federal law, the process is supposed to be 30 days. 60 days later, I'm still here shelling out money for certified mail with no end in sight and no results to show. This is my last option before I take this up with my lawyers and sue for full compensations and damages incurred. Finally, it seems that when these complaints are submitted, the bureaus are using the excuse that they " can't confirm my identity '' to get away with taking no actions on my credit report. Please investigate this as well.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Michigan, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX Consumer Dispute Center XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX, PA XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX Equifax Information Services LLC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, GA XXXX Dear Sir/Madam, Subject : Dispute and Request for Investigation of Inaccurate Information on my Credit Report I am writing to dispute certain items on my credit report provided by XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax. After recently obtaining my consumer report, I have discovered inaccuracies related to the collections accounts associated with the following creditors : XXXX ( account number ending in XXXX ), XXXX ( account number ending in XXXX ), and XXXX XXXXXXXX ( account number ending in XXXX ). 

The inaccuracies that I am disputing are as follows : Incorrect Date of Birth : My date of birth is inaccurately reported as XX/XX/XXXX However, I can provide concrete proof through my official identification and citizenship papers that my correct date of birth is XX/XX/XXXX. 

Account Opening Date : The accounts with the above-mentioned creditors were reported as opened before I turned XXXX years old. As per my correct date of birth, I was born on XX/XX/XXXX. Therefore, it is evident that these accounts were opened before I reached the age of XXXX, which is incorrect and a violation of credit regulations. 

I kindly request a thorough investigation into these matters to rectify the discrepancies in my credit report. The presence of these inaccuracies negatively impacts my creditworthiness and financial standing, which may hinder my ability to obtain credit and loans in the future. 

I can provide copies of my identification documents and citizenship papers to support the verification of my correct date of birth. 

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I understand that you have 30 days from the date of receipt of this dispute letter to conduct your investigation and provide me with the results. I request that you promptly send me a written response outlining the actions taken to correct the inaccuracies on my credit report. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I appreciate your assistance in resolving this dispute and look forward to a timely update of my credit report. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Michigan, XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX

Issue: Problem when making payments
Sub-issue: Problem during payment process

Complaint:
I tried to make my payment online before the due date of XX/XX/XXXX. When logging in, the XXXX XXXX XXXX/Synchrony Bank system REQUIRES you to provide a phone number AND to give them permission to contact you via the mobile phone if you give them a mobile phone number. My only phone number is a work cell phone and I am not permitted to receive personal calls on it. It is impossible to proceed past the " Update Information Required ''  page without giving them permission to contact you via cell phone. 

After trying to make the online payment, I tried to call them at the service phone number XXXX. I was not able to make a phone payment because the agent required me to " verify my phone number '', and when I told them there shouldn't be one on the account, they told me I was " required to have a phone number '' and could not proceed without one. 

I again tried to call to make a payment on XX/XX/XXXX, and was again unable to pay my bill without giving them a phone number. 

I therefore mailed my check, on XX/XX/XXXX, and it was received and processed by Synchrony on XX/XX/XXXX, obviously after the XX/XX/XXXX due date.

Complaint:
Kia Motor Finance is showing I have a {$10.00} current open balance for my Kia account. However, Kia is not reporting properly on a monthly basis to XXXX. What they are reporting is a zero balance and closed account. T I've submitted disputes to all three credit agencies and thru Consumer Finance Protection Bureau and asked for an open balance letter from Kia showing what is owed. Kia finally sent me the letter. 

I've spoken to 4 different Kia Motor Finance supervisors over the phone and no one could help me. I went to the Kia dealership to explain the situation to the account manager. They immediately called Kia Motor Finance- they could not rectify the problem. As of today XX/XX/22 XXXX and XXXX still show that my Kia account is closed. XXXX is finally showing the proper information that says " in good standing ''. 

This is severely hurting my credit score and causing a higher apr interest rate for the mortgage that I am supposed to close on next Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX.

Complaint:
Transunion is reporting incorrectly a collection in the amount of {$2000.00} on the XXXX XXXX XXXX partial account number XXXX. ( Please see page attached from my credit report. ) I was working with the XXXX. along with the apartment complex where I was residing. We were able to come to an agreement for payment, which I fulfilled. Unfortunately, shortly thereafter the apartment complex was sold and a new management company came on board and refused to work with the XXXX. in any capacity and consequently I was asked to vacate the property. Currently the reporting entity of this collection no longer exists. This collection from the apartment complex is false and should not be appearing on my credit report. This false reporting of a collection is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and needs to be removed from my credit report. I have contacted the bureau to fix this however, I have not been successful.
