State: CA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint:
I XXXX XXXX along with my wife XXXX XXXX are in a position to file for a Chapter XXXX bankruptcy. However, as a means of pursuing a reasonable procedure to get out of debt over the next year without such a drastic step, we are requesting very low settlements in the 20 % range of where our debts were at the last payment. Accordingly, we believe that we only have one chance at this, and if we do not start receiving settlement offers soon, we will retain the bankruptcy attorney we recently consulted. Therefore, we request letters of settlement, and we request the cease and desist from all calls to our home, cell and/or work. We desire to resolve these matters in written form only. 

Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

Issue # 1. Insufficent Investigation Violation of FCRA : Unfair ( A proper investigation would have revealed that it was not my account ). 

XX/XX/XXXX After a review of my credit report, I discovered that a XXXX XXXX account was opened fraudulently without my authorization. At that time. I filled out a police report and FTC Identity Theft Victims Complaint and Affidavit. ( See both attached reports ). 
After another review of my recent credit report, I noticed that this fraudulent account is still on my credit report and unfairly negatively impacting my credit score. 

XX/XX/XXXX I wrote a letter to XXXX requesting that they validate and investigate this account because it is not mine. ( See attached report ). 

XX/XX/XXXX XXXX sent me back a correspondence indicating that above referenced account had been validated. How can this be when I never authorized or submitted an application for this account or card. XXXX did not provide me with any documentation or contract with my signature on it requesting to open an account, or any other documents that prove I opened this account. ( See attached letter ). 

In my letter XX/XX/XXXX letter to XXXX I specifically asked to see confirmation of a contract with my signature authorizing this account to be opened by me. XXXX wrote letter back to me on stated that their investigation was verified without any information or documentation as requested by me. 

My respectful request is that CFPB assist me in having this XXXX XXXX deleted from all three major credit bureaus because I did not open or give permission to anyone to open this account in my name. I am a victim of identity theft. This account is further victimizing me as is negatively impacting my credit score.

Issue # 2 Inaccurate and Incomplete Information on Credit Report Violation of FCRA A review of my credit report reviews that it is inaccurate in the following areas for the XXXX  XXXX account which is attached hereto : ( See page # 14 of attached credit report ) 1. Date Opened- XXXX XXXX Experian and XXXX all have different dates opened reporting 2. XXXX XXXX, Experian and XXXX all have different high credit amounts reporting 3. Last Date Reported-XXXX, Experian and XXXX all have different last date reporting 4. Date Last Active- XXXX XXXX Experian and XXXX XXXX have different date last active reporting 5. Date of Last Payment- XXXX and Experian have a different date of last payment reporting than XXXX does. 

Accordingly, Pursuant FCRA, I am respectfully requesting that this account be deleted from XXXX, XXXX and Experian Thank you ***All reports mentioned are were uploaded to this portal

Complaint:
Accounts on my credit report have been linked to identity theft without my proper authorization, including a signature. I've already discussed this matter with your organization, and I'm formally requesting the swift removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence has caused significant emotional and financial distress, as they inaccurately represent my credit history and responsibilities. If this issue isn't resolved appropriately, I'm ready to take legal action to protect my rights and seek a resolution. These fraudulent items on my credit record have hindered my ability to achieve important financial goals, such as buying a home and providing for my family.

Complaint:
The three major credit bureaus are reporting an erroneous late on my credit file and it must be removed immediately. I had submitted disputes for a late I had with XXXX XXXX for the month of XXXX that was an erroneous late on their part that needed to be removed. I had NEVER been late prior of after this, and like I mentioned they made an error. I had also submitted them a letter with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX stating they will be submitting a request to the bureaus to remove the late from my credit file. Well, I recently checked my credit and noticed that a late for XXXX is now reporting and it dropped my scores?! This is ridiculous I was never late!!! I showed them proof that I was never late, and they just went off and gave me a new late for a month that I had never been late!!! This is a serious violation and it must be fixed immediately.

Sub-issue: Funds not handled or disbursed as instructed

Complaint:
Someone was able to log into my bank account, steal my identity, and issue a {$49000.00} wire transfer emptying my savings account. I received an email confirming the transaction, and I immediately realized to be the victim of fraudulent activity. I called the bank within 2 minutes, but unfortunately, due to slow customer service and heavy calls volume, I could only speak to a fraud specialist XXXX later. The fraud department told me that, unfortunately, the funds were already gone and helped me to start a claim and submit an affidavit. ( This happened within the first 2 hours from the time of the fraud on XX/XX/2022 ). On a recorded line, the Fraud specialist also assured me that I would receive a provisional credit pending investigation. The bank later refused to credit me for the amount bringing up company policy and other excuses regarding wire transfer fraud protocols.

Sub-issue: Other problem getting your report or credit score

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX sold my loan to American Credit Acceptance in XX/XX/2020 without my knowledge. My credit score dropped 60 points because it looks like the loan closed. 
I started paying XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 
I called XXXX XXXX in XXXX to ask why they were not reporting my on time payments. 
I was told many different things. 
1. They do not have to report 2. They are short staffed 3. They are putting it in manually and it takes time. 
4. They would start reporting the following month Needless to say they never reported my on time payments. I was told they would report if I was late on a payment. 
I have called every month for 7 months. I have been put on hold for 30 minutes sometimes, I have been hung up on, I have been told they need the name of my consumer advocate so when they called the staff would know who it was. ( this was so disrespectful ) All three bureaus told me their name is below XXXX XXXX on the credit reports and By Law they should have reported 30 days and continued to do so every thirty days. 
I also spoke with a consumer credit attorney who told me to call the Attorney General in Texas .He also said I have consumer rights, They told me to call consumer finance for the government there in Texas XXXX 
I have waited 7 months for this company to report my good credit to the bureau. My low credit score due to their negligence has kept me for getting preapproved for a home loan as of last XXXX. I will have to sign another lease by the end of XXXX if this is not repaired on my report. American Credit Acceptance sent me a copy of all my payments in good standing several months back, it is not up to date but shows my diligence to make my payments on time.

Ive submitted several disputes regarding the account XXXX XXXX XXXX, account number XXXX, with XXXX XXXX TRANSUNION XXXX & XXXX XXXX Ive submitted in detail how those late payments violate my rights as a consumer, according the FCRA.
