Complaint:
Remove all accounts in XXXX business days according to 15 USC 1681c2. Ive disputed that these accounts were not mine and yet, you continue to state another person can validate debt for me, the consumer! According to disputes per Congress, an investigation MUST BE PERFORMED! According to 15 USC 1681 a-e, it states you HAVE to do interviews with my family, associates and neighbors. In order for a consumer to have a witness, they would have to witness the signing of the contract, or contact the neighbors. You nor these collection agencies did that and did not provide documentation proof. You did not provide any information interviewing nor did I receive anything in the mail. I was not given written notice in advance to dispute BEFORE you VOLUNTARY posted false information on me. This is multiple violations! Delete and provide compensation for each violation for credit bureaus reported to without notifying me of the alleged debt in writing and giving me, the consumer rights to respond. I did not give you permission to report any information on me. Therefore, I demand EXPERIAN to remove ALL accounts and I demand compensation for each violation!

Sub-issue: Application denied

Complaint:
Recently I submitted applications for a Citi XXXX, and a Citi XXXX XXXX XXXX cards. According to a representitive that I spoke with, I should submit new applications, since I could not reopen these accounts. 
In two separate letters, I was informed that both applications were denied. In both letters, there was one single reason : Too many applications submitted.

I have only submitted two applications, the two XXXX XXXX cards. 

It would've been nice if Citi had cited how many applications were acceptable, I could've saved a hard inquiry. Maybe showing me a pop-up window informing me that I have reached the acceptable number of applications. 



I would also like to reopen my Citi  XXXX XXXX card, however, I do not know the number on the card to present, because the card was destroyed.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I made a request to look at and have my credit report mailed to me. Although I was able to be take a look I wasnt able to have it mailed to me. I saw that on my report there was serveral inquiries STILL on my report after I disputed it with the cra saying they dont belong. Inquires on my report has been furnished without my consent and has no permissible purpose which is a direct violation of 15 USC 1681b ( c ) ( XXXX ) ( A ) ( B ) ( i ) ( XXXX ). Remove every inquire on my report that is not connected to an account. I also noticed that a collection account has been reinserted on my report without verification nor letting me known which is a violation of the FCRA. Investigation reports must included sources of interviews of family and friends which it did not and is a violation of the FCRA. Also I was never given a chance to direct information on my credit report which is also a violation of FCRA, 15 USC 1681a ( XXXX ) ( A ) ( XXXX ). This CRA has violated my privacy by furnishing private information about me without my consent or lawful authority. With this inaccurate information on my report I have not been able to be approved for any personal loan to help my family situation. It has caused me so much stress and sleepless nights. Ive been trying to get them to understand for months with no response. It is not fair to have to go through this when it is not my fault and no one gets in trouble for it. I will not stop until they suffer for causing me and my family such pain and suffering. It is not right and I as a consumer dont deserve to be treated this way and lied to nor lied on.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2021, I initiated a dispute on credit report to the credit bureaus asking if they report bankruptcies to the credit bureaus and I got a letter stating The company that reported the information has certified to Experian that the information is accurate. To date, I have not heard back for the dispute with the other agencies. How did the credit bureaus verify my bankruptcy as 100 % accurate? I do not believe a fair investigation was conducted according to the 15 USC 1681. 

15 USC 1681 section 603 ( 3 ) ( E ) States ; The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. 

The credit bureaus also violated several other of my rights. 

The credit bureaus violated my given rights under 15 USC 1681.

According to : 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States I have the right to privacy.

According to : 15 U.S.C 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written instructions According to : 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.
