State: LA
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2019, the request was made to apply for an auto loan with a specific lender with whom I've already had an established positive lending relationship, being XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

It had been made clear that a security freeze was in place on my credit for safety purposes and avoidance of abuse of process. 

In good faith, I temporarily lifted the credit-freeze for 24 hours with XXXX  for the dealers to contact the requested lender who approved the loan in the amount greater than what was requested. 

The dealers subsequently proceeded to create an additional 7 to 10 hard inquiries against my credit score by other lenders despite my choice lender already approving the loan for a greater amount than requested and without my knowledge or consent. Immediately following this action, the dealers demanded I unfreeze an additional credit profile with XXXX  where they posted additional hard inquiries against my score without reason. XXXX  was lifted for 24 hours at my request, however, upon leaving the dealership without my vehicle, I discovered that the XXXX  freeze had been held open against my request of 24 hours by the dealers who were intending additional postings against my score unnecessarily. 

The dealers refuse to release the vehicle me under the disclaimer of insurance until the hard inquiries had in fact been declared as posted to my account greatly reducing my score. 

The following action was not only unnecessary but heinous.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I was reviewing my credit report and noticed an account had been charged off that was not familiar to me. I looked through my XXXX updates and saw an account was opened with ACIMA XXXX FKA SIMPLE with a balance of {$4800.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. My credit had been compromised in XXXX of XXXX and I contacted XXXX and had fraud protection placed on my account as a result of confirmation I was a victim of identity theft. Somehow someone was still able to open an account in my name in XXXX. The account was charged off on XX/XX/XXXX, for failure to pay. I filed a dispute with XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. They advised on XX/XX/XXXX I needed to settle the dispute with ACIMA. I reached out to ACIMA via chat on XX/XX/XXXX. They advised because I was disputing the charges they could not help me. They told me before they could assist me, I needed to file a police report and then send a copy to the fraud department. I contacted XXXX and they advised I could file a report online as I'm out of town. I filed a report and received a copy on XX/XX/XXXX. I submitted that report to ACIMA. They responded via email saying because the report was redacted ( my personal information is hidden ) they could not assist me. They said I need to provide an FTC report and a copy of my ID. At this point I feel like they're giving me the run around. I am proceeding with the FTC report which has led me here.Any help you can provide in getting this issue resolved would be greatly appreciated.

Complaint:
I applied for a credit increase with XXXX XXXX. After applying XXXX advise me of information on my credit report that was incorrect. I believe the credit report pulled by them was at least 6 months old and outdated. I contacted the credit bureau that XXXX XXXX pull and they advised they did not show the information that XXXX had on file. 

I then called XXXX back to advise them the information that they advised was on my current credit report was incorrect and/or outdated for more than 8 months. The file or report used by XXXX was the reason I was denied credit. I have filed a complaint against that reporting agency as well for providing an outdated report to XXXX. 

It is my belief that XXXX is using outdated files when pulling credit reports of clients. I reached out to both Experian, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX regarding the information XXXX stated during my call with a representative on XX/XX/21, XX/XX/21 and XX/XX/21. I am not sure where and how XXXX is reviewing credit but their file does not match either of the two credit reporting agencies. 

I did not receive a credit pull alert from XXXX or from the credit reporting agency that my credit was pulled by XXXX. 

failure to use current or correct reporting data is a form of discrimination against any/and all customers and a violation of the Federal Trade Commission XXXX 

Using old and outdated reports for the certain customer ( s ) is a form of discrimination. 

There needs to be a full investigation into the pattern and practices used by XXXX for customers with being reviewed for credit increase with limits under {$5000.00} versus customers who may already have a credit limit above {$5000.00}. 

XXXX advised me they used reports from Experian and XXXX XXXX to review my request for a credit increase. 

Once again I did not get any alerts that my credit had been pulled by XXXX
