Complaint:
I am working on applying for a mortgage. The lender is unable to pull my credit report from XXXX and Equifax. The lender is however able to pull my credit report from XXXX. I have worked extensively with both XXXX and Equifax to verify all of my information is correct, ensure there are not holds or freezes, yet the lender is still unable to pull my credit. I have verified all the information my lender has is correct. Neither XXXX nor Equifax have made any effort to help me resolve this problem but it is clearly something wrong with their system.

Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX XXXX CREDIT BUREAU ; Every month I question the validity of this account. There is no way that this account was indeed verified- it's unverifiable and incomplete. Again, Im not sure who to take this to anymore, but I have disputed this account several times with both the original creditor and the credit reporting agencies accordingly and Ive attached everything to support my dispute. However, I continue to received a pre-template letter sent to me that its been verified and it REMAINS. How is it possible that this was verified if you continue to report incomplete, inconsistent, inaccurate, and unverifiable information on this account and lack a thorough and in-depth investigation. Ive disputed and I have not received anything as such, but it continues to be reported in violation of the consumer laws. Continues to report wrong balance, incorrect date of first delinquency, wrong date of last active, inconsistent payment status, high balance and actual balance is questionable, etc. I believe that section 609 of FCRA also allows me to ask for detail information about the account and how you indeed investigated and your detail process. I'm extremely upset and shocked about the way this charge-off account is reporting on my credit report which continues to report with incomplete, inconsistent and unverifiable information. How can you honestly say that you verified as it being accurate? This was NOT verified! I am requesting this investigation under the authorization of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 623. ( a ) ( 8 ) ability of consumer to dispute information directly with the furnisher. What I am disputing : The account you have reported to the three credit bureaus. My basis for this dispute is that I have no knowledge of this account.

Complaint:
My consumer report is falsely reporting utilization that is my experience with a line of credit that was extended between me the consumer and the Company that is making the report to a non-affiliated party. Congress clearly states that the report of transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report is not included on a consumer report. You have violated FCRA 15 U.S. Code 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( A ), by reporting the transaction or in this case its an experience because we are talking about the utilization on my consumer report which congress clearly states are not included on any consumer report, you have 10 calendar days to update my utilization to 10 % or below or delete all utilization from the accounts listed below. Failure to respond satisfactorily with the task on hand will result in legal action.

Your company willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n and criminal liability under 15 U.S. Code 1611 is not what Congress intended.

During COVID there was a lack of communication to address this debt.

With this said even making several calls, leaving messages, offering a reduced amount, staying on permanent holds, and emailing I dont get a response anyway. Its almost as if this firm purposely ignores you to make the situation more complicated.
