Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes

Complaint:
I have tried now on several occasions to get security freezes placed on my credit reports, but to no avail. Moreover, due to my information being found on XXXX XXXX sites and the fact my information was compromised in the XXXX  data breach, I am scared of identity theft. Therefore, I want all addresses removed except for my current address. Finally, I am requesting full validation of all accounts under the FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which states all unverified accounts must be promptly deleted. Therefore, if you are unable to provide me with a copy of the verifiable proof that you have on file for each of the accounts listed on my credit report within 30 days of receipt of this letter then you must remove these accounts from my credit report.

Complaint:
I have a couple things going on. 

I went to a car XXXX dealership and was already approved by my bank and had the cashier check to pay for my car. XXXX said that can give me a better rate with XXXX if I finance with them. I was informed that they would only pull my credit once with XXXX and I was approved for a loan through XXXX but I realized that I had a lot more inquires on my report that I did not authorize or didn't know about. I called my sales rep and asked about the inquires and I was advised that they were looking the best rate even without my permission and they would consolidate into one inquire. I has been over a year and they are still there.

Complaint:
My estranged wife listed me as an authorized user on her credit cards with Capital One. She missed three payments ( I had no access to pay the bills ) last summer somehow and I asked to be removed as an authorized user because of this. I was removed as the user and the debt amounts were removed, but the payment history was not removed. When I contacted Capital One, they said they could not speak with me regarding this because I was not a card holder.

Complaint:
RE : XXXX In accordance to 15 USC 1681 ( 7 ). 1 requested to see the description of what happened during the reivestigation. What was the method of verification was used. The company name, name of person, title, phone number conducting the investigation. I never received any copies of documentation during the 15 days. The Credit Reporting Agencies have to conduct a personal interview with family members, neighbors and friends in order to validate any debt by FCRA law. The Credit Reporting Agencies can not rely on information from a third-party that do not have first hand knowledge of transaction on report. None of the Credit Reporting Agencies did not call me or send me a letter to validate these debts. Which is another violation of the FCRA law. Company law does not Trump Federal law. The Credit Reporting Agencies is not adhering to the FCRA laws. I have sent in everything possible and they are still ignoring me.

Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Complaint:
I initiated a call to AAG Mortgage in late XXXX, and question what info i would need to get a reverse mortgage from an inheritance. They sent me a list to return to them, so i did. 
I sent a copy of certified will, death certificate, copy of deed pay records, insurance info. 
I was informed from them ( AAG ) and the County Clerks office plus an attorney 's advice that all the information i sent was enough. AAG wanted me to pay for a credit counseling, an appraisal, and pushed me into renewing property insurance. All of which was an extra expense for me. Now this company need a Testamentary of the will. I can not get this document because i am not executor. I had to seek legal advice to force my brother to file the will, and he is just not interested in getting me this document. There was a woman who pushed my insurance broker to add AAG to the policy even though a loan was not executed. 

My problem is i am terribly concerned that these jerks can pull people in for these loans, but change the rules before loan closes. Even the clerk of court XXXX County stated that i had completed documents.

Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint:
I, XXXX XXXX believes in the credit reporting system as the most important element to the success of the commercial banking system. I am also a proponent of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) as a tool to streamline issues on credit reports that may be dragging down my overall scores. Accordingly, I address each particular issue directly with the creditor in question, before submitting any complaint to the credit bureaus if necessary. Therefore, I desire the following reinvestigation as follows : 1 ) On accounts where late payments are posted, I respectfully request a review of the past payment history and to ascertain if certain payments could actually have been posted late because of an overlap on the 30-days grace period. I realize that this may happen on occasion, and I request only a summary review internally, and do not require any documentation.

2 ) On any account that falls within the 84-month negative reporting timeline, I respectfully request either the deletion of the account if said account was closed, or the elimination of the prior payment if the account it is still active, this is well within the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) guidelines pertaining to obsolete information.

3 ) Any collections must be proved if either a direct collection and/or debt purchase. In either event I request that a true original copy of right to pursue collection be established with each respective credit reporting agency, and if a debt purchase the guidelines proving transfer of ownership must be submitted to all credit bureaus as well as me personally to validate ownership and the right to collect. I am well within my rights requesting proper documentation as administered through the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), in addition to the even stricter guidelines enforced by the office of attorney general in my state of domicile. 
I respectfully request each investigation to be reported to XXXX, XXXX  and XXXX XXXX within a reasonable time period, hopefully 30-days. I realize that the current Covid-19 crisis could cause delays, so the best efforts of each financial institution and collection agency will be appreciated under the current circumstances. 
XXXX XXXX

I'm filing this complaint against the credit bureau today because I am a victim of identity theft which I've submitted my identity theft affidavit from the FTC with the credit bureau. They're items on my credit report that I have disputed that has been removed except for the public records. The credit bureau are claiming to have verified the inaccurate information as accurate but when proof is requested of how and with whom I have yet to receive any documents. I have contact the creditor directly and they provided me with a letter stating they do not submit any information to the credit bureaus. So my question is to whom was the information verified with and why haven't I yet received any documents with my signature of this account??? Because the accounts has been verified as my account and I would like it removed. 
I'm uploading my dispute letter I mailed back in XXXX of this year along with my security freeze confirmation letter, and the letter I received from the courts house.
