Complaint:
I'm disappointed by your claims & am rejecting on the basis that you lack any material fact to support your claim... Please DISPUTE THESE ACCOUNTS! Or I will be seeking a legal remedy from you. Frustration, distress, annoyance, and outright anger. These emotions stem from the painstakingly slow response and the repeated denial of my identity theft claim by your bureau. 

I demand immediate attention to my identity theft disputes. The sluggish response and repeated denials have only added to my distress and frustration. My life has been significantly affected, and it's high time you recognize the gravity of the situation. 

I implore you to swiftly initiate a thorough investigation into these matters, remove the fraudulent accounts from my credit report, and help restore my financial standing. I'm not asking for special treatment ; I'm asking for what is rightfully mine as a victim of identity theft. 

XXXX XXXX If my appeals for prompt action continue to fall on deaf ears, rest assured that I am prepared to take legal action to ensure justice prevails. I won't hesitate to involve an attorney to hold your bureau accountable for the repeated denials, the harm to my reputation, and the emotional turmoil this ordeal has inflicted upon me. 

I expect a written acknowledgment of this dispute letter and a clear commitment to investigate my identity theft claim promptly. 

My emotions may be running high, but my determination to resolve this matter is even stronger.

Complaint:
Formal Complaint Against Equifax and XXXX Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Equifax and XXXX regarding multiple violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and federal law concerning identity theft reporting on my credit report. I have repeatedly informed both agencies about the identity theft, providing necessary documentation such as police reports and identity theft reports. Despite numerous notifications, the inaccurate information persists on my credit reports.an accounts opened in my Name for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXXXXXX XXXX was from Id theft I've send my police report and id report in numerous times these company 's are in violation of federal law and need to have some consequences I believe these ongoing violations not only jeopardize my financial standing but also demonstrate a blatant disregard for the legal obligations outlined in the FCRA. As a result, I am left with no choice but to consider pursuing legal action, including the initiation of a class-action lawsuit, unless immediate corrective actions are taken. 

I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigates this matter thoroughly and takes appropriate actions against Equifax and XXXX to rectify the violations promptly. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Company: BMW Financial Services NA, LLC
State: CA
Product: Vehicle loan or lease
Sub-product: Lease
Issue: Getting a loan or lease
Sub-issue: Loan opened without my consent or knowledge

Complaint:
The issue is that this specific account was opened with BMW Financial Services on XX/XX/2019, as stated on the credit bureaus. I had no prior knowledge of this particular loan because I was unaware another car loan was added to my credit report. This account resulted from identity theft and fraud because I was unaware of this account, a new car, and a new lease being added to my credit report. Plus, I was not the person that got the car. I recently learned about this account, and I contacted BMW to inform them that they're reporting an account on my credit report that I am unaware of. They told me the car is a lease and it was a new lease in 2019, but the car was repossessed, and the account is currently in charge-off. I asked them when and how this loan was opened without my permission because the account is not mine, and they should immediately investigate this. The representative refused to continue talking to me. I requested information about the account, but they refused to provide anything. They claimed that since I'm stating the account is not mine, they are not privileged to share information. However, they continuously report this fraudulent account that resulted from identity theft on my credit report. When I checked, the credit bureau said the loan 's original balance was {$21000.00}. But currently, the loan balance is {$31000.00} and continues to increase. I told BMW continuously and sent them documents with a notarized affidavit that the account was not mine and that such derogatory and fraudulent accounts resulting from identity theft must be removed from the credit report. Bottom line, I want to state that the account is not mine, and they must release this fraudulent account or loan from their record and my credit report because I am not the obligor of this car and this loan.

Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
There are two credit reporting agencies ; Equifax and XXXX who have failed in their grave responsibility to uphold the consumer 's right to privacy. These agencies ' careless and unlawful business practices have resulted in data breaches, and I personally have been affected by such malpractice. A fraudulent account has been opened in my name, adversely affecting my ability to utilize my consumer credit. I have already submitted an FTC Identity Theft Report and disputed the account with the companies multiple times, only to receive frivolous boilerplate responses in return that are off-point and do not address the nature of their mistakes. While Equifax has done the fair and equitable thing in deleting the account from my report, they have not properly and justly compensated me for the violation ( under 15 USC 6801 ; breach of privacy ). Seeing that the account is no longer reporting on Equifax due to its inaccuracy, XXXX should now follow suit and remove the account, and compensate me {$1000.00} for each violation of the FCRA. Another violation that I am to be compensated for is the fact that I didn't receive any request for permission to furnish such information. As I have stated I haven't had access to my consumer credit and have been denied countless home loans, apartment leases, and rental properties. As a result, I am currently homeless with a wife and child. At the time the charge-off hit my account I was applying for a {$500000.00} loan and the law states that as actual damage that I must be compensated for.
