Complaint:
Hello, I hope this message finds you well. A couple of months I reviewed my credit profile and seen inaccurate information regarding an alleged collection from a company called one main. This account was falsely opened in my name. Prior to submitting this complaint, I have sent over 3 letters to the XXXX to have them send the proper validation of this alleged account. I have even requested bank statements, documents and signatures to indeed prove that it was not me who opened the account. However, all bureaus have avoided me. This makes me angry my consumer rights are being violated! I have the right to dispute any misleading information. I saw a ton of inaccuracies. Doesn't this go against the FCRA Laws?

Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone

Complaint:
When I called the dispute phone number I was routed to a person who I could not understand. When I asked for the web address to submit my statement and corrected information I was told it had to be done by mail or I could subscribe to the pay site and submit it. Transunion has so many sites its confusing. Isnt it supposed to be free to correct your information? It really is bad everything your bank does is through Transunion. To get a loan I have to have this issue corrected. Maybe if the representative lived in the same country and understood the process they are working with.

Sub-issue: Debt was result of identity theft

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX originally sold an account that was opened in my name by someone who stole my identity to XXXX XXXX XXXX reported a delinquent account on my credit report for {$70.00}. Now they sold this fraudulent account to IC System Inc. and claim that I now owe {$770.00}. I told them that this was identity theft. They said that it's for a debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Nebraska. I told them that I have never lived there or visited there in my life. I called XXXX XXXX myself and they said that they only do online disputes with a police report. That since they merged with XXXX XXXX XXXX, they can't file a complaint over the phone and that they only have limited access. I filed a police report with the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and already sent it to XXXX XXXX. IC System says that there's nothing that they can do. The collection company refuses to delete this account from their files. The collection company should be able to verify and dispute the account themselves, since they are the ones who now are trying to collect this debt. I am in the process of applying for a home loan and this has derailed everything. This is a living nightmare. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX should be held accountable for not fully verifying the identity of the person when this account was opened. I'm sure that I'm not the only victim. I have also filed a dispute with XXXX XXXX and the case # is XXXX. It is impossible to contact XXXX XXXX by phone.
