Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX  XXXX  data breach as well as XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX  data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: TX
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Frequent or repeated calls

Complaint:
I am writing to address a matter of concern regarding excessive phone calls from your company, which I believe constitutes a violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). 

According to the FDCPA, specifically under Section 805 ( c ), debt collectors are prohibited from engaging in communication with a consumer in connection with the collection of any debt at any unusual time or place or at a time or place known or which should be known to be inconvenient to the consumer. Additionally, Section 806 ( 5 ) prohibits repeated and continuous communication with the intent to annoy, abuse, or harass. 12 CFR Part 1006 - Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( Regulation F ) also prohibits collection calls from being more than 7 calls to a customer within a 7 day time span.

I have documented and attached my cell phone records that show a total of 17 phone calls from your company at XXXX to my phone number within a span of seven days ( XXXX XXXX of this year ) as well as XXXX phone calls from XXXX within a span of 7 days ( XXXX XXXX of this year ). This frequency of communication is not only inconvenient but also exceeds the limits set by the FDCPA, CFR and CFPB. As per my understanding of the law, creditors and debt collectors making excessive calls beyond that are considered a violation.

Company: Revolut Technologies Inc.
State: DC
Product: Prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose prepaid card
Issue: Problem getting a card or closing an account
Sub-issue: Trouble closing card

Complaint:
I wish to close my Revolut card because Revolut has made it clear that it will not permit me to open a XXXX XXXX unless I provide a " National ID Card, '' something that does not exist in the United States. I have already provided a RealID compliant driver 's license from the XXXX XXXX XXXX, a lawful jurisdiction in the United States, which was sufficient to open the Revolut card, but for reasons Revolut will not address, the same ID is insufficient to open an associated interest-earning savings vault. I am permitted to open non-interest bearing vaults, but there would be no reason to do so when Revolut advertises, apparently falsely, that interest of 3.25 % can be earned on an interest-bearing vault. 
The current balance on the Revolut card is XXXX. When I attempt to close the Account, the Revolut app says it can not close the account with a balance greater than XXXX. When I attempt to transfer out the XXXX balance, the Revolut App declines any transfer of less than XXXX. Accordingly Revolut would require me to add additional funds to the Revolut account and then once the balance exceeds XXXX, they would presumably permit me to then transfer the full balance out. Nothing in the terms of service require me to add money to an account for any reason, including for purposes of closing an account. I request Revolut provide a written explanation to the CFPB as to why a client can not close an account due to rules not stated in any contract that preclude the customer from transferring out or otherwise receiving the remaining balance. 
When I attempt to use Help, I can not reach an agent. When I attempt to use the option to transfer in and then close, the defective Revolut App continuously restarts, effectively locking me out of access to the remaining XXXX balance.

Complaint:
I reject your decision to decline my identity theft claim. What gives you the authority to decide if I've been a victim? You do not possess the legal standing or any right to make such a determination. If you continue to deny my claim, I will enlist the assistance of my attorney to seek a legal resolution. It's crucial to emphasize that my identity theft claim fully adheres to the law. I have submitted an official report to a federal agency as dictated by legal procedures. Let 's collaborate to resolve this issue within the stipulated 5-day timeframe. 

How can it be that your bureau dares to dismiss my legitimate claim? Who are you to sit in judgment, claiming to know better than I whether I have been a victim of identity theft? Your refusal is not only maddening but an affront to decency and fairness. I was the victim & I'm not sure why the CRA is not complying with the law. The other bureaus have followed suit. Im very confused why this one seems to ignore my requests. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I want to make it unequivocally clear that I am not about to let this gross miscarriage of justice stand. If you persist in denying my rightful claim, be prepared to face the consequences. I will not hesitate to engage my attorney and pursue a legal remedy to rectify this outrageous situation. 

I insist that you recognize that my identity theft claim has been meticulously processed in strict accordance with the letter of the law. I have diligently submitted an official report to a federal agency, as required by the legal procedures governing such matters. There is no room for ambiguity here.
