Please remove all negative and inaccurate information in my reports. This whole situation is ruining the quality of my life and my familys. Please see attachments. The attachments display all inaccuracies and unverified information. I am not requesting any more investigations, I want everything deleted from my reports that is negative and inaccurate. Do not investigate! Delete this unverified, inaccurate and fraudulent data. The bureaus have multiple credit profiles for me. This is a violation of my consumer rights. Please correct my name, address and delete all negative data from my consumer report immediately.

Complaint:
In the process of my spouse not working due to the pandemic we had to do a Forbearance and later a loan modification. The credit bureau is showing we have late payments on our accounts. 
In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The list of accounts below has violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 USC 1881. 
Accounts- XXXX XXXX XXXX- Account # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX- Account XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX-Account # XXXX Equifax 15 U.S.C 1681 Section 602 A. States I have the right to privacy.

Complaint:
I am giving authorization to this company to respond to this cfpb complaint. I have requested that this company cease the reporting of the account stated in the attached dispute letter due to federal violations. Pursuant to the IRS Publication XXXX any cancellation of debt is considered a certificate of indebtedness and its now income. Income can not be reported per the IRS publication. However, this company did NOT honor my request for removal. This violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act and both this company and the consumer reporting agencies are participating in this violation. Additionally, as a financial institution, they did not disclose to me my right to opt out of the disclosure of my nonpublic information or directions on how to exercise my right to opt out as dictated by law. I sent them a letter notifying them of my request to be opted out of my nonpublic information being furnished to consumer reporting agencies pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 6802 and 16 CFR 313.7 in which they have denied my right. Instead, they stated that they do not offer their customers the option to opt out which is a direct violation of federal law ( s ) as they are REQUIRED to give opt out disclosures. As a federally protected consumer I am now revoking any and all authorization that I, the consumer, may have given them written, non written, verbal, and nonverbal per 5 U.S. Code 552a and I am demanding that my nonpublic information cease to be furnished. If this matter does not get settled, I will pursue litigation for damages.

Sub-issue: Billing problem

Complaint:
I contacted the company on or about XX/XX/XXXX regarding a payment I submitted that returned from the bank. I attempted to set a payment arrangement on my account to maintain the positive history that we've had for the past 3-years. 

I was refused the opportunity to set an arrangement because I'm not far enough delinquent. 

I spoke with the company today, XX/XX/XXXX, regarding the same matter and received the same response. 

I have been receiving several phone calls per day regarding the past due balance and they refuse to notate my account, stop the phone calls, and honor any sort of commitment that I'm trying to make to pay the past due balance at a future date. 

This is harassment and poor service. I have been an exemplary customer for years and I'm just trying to communicate with the lender regarding the past due balance ; much more than most people try to do.

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: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
I have had ongoing issues with incorrect credit card balance reporting by XXXX XXXX on my credit reports prepared by the three major credit reporting agencies ( XXXX, XXXX, TransUnion ). This inaccurate reporting violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ), which requires furnishers like XXXX XXXX to properly investigate and correct inaccurate information after receiving notice of a consumer dispute from a CRA. 

Specifically, XXXX XXXX XXXX account ending in XXXX currently has a {$0.00} balance and an XX/XX/2023 statement balance of {$190.00}. However, the CRAs are reporting a balance of {$10000.00} as of XX/XX/2023, which does not match any of my account statements. XXXX XXXX XXXX account ending in XXXX has a current balance of {$2200.00} and an XX/XX/2023 statement balance of {$2400.00}, yet the CRAs are reporting a {$3200.00} balance as of XX/XX/2023, again unmatched to any statement. 

These inaccurate higher balances negatively impact my credit score and exaggerate my debt obligations. I have disputed the incorrect reporting multiple times, but the CRAs often just verify the inaccurate information as reported by XXXX XXXX. This violates 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), which requires the CRAs to conduct a reasonable investigation when a consumer disputes the completeness or accuracy of information in their credit file. 

Despite my providing their own account statements showing the correct lower balances, XXXX XXXX has failed to correct the information they furnish to the CRAs, in violation of their obligations under 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ). XXXX XXXX and the CRAs have continued to shift responsibility back and forth, leaving these inaccuracies unresolved. 

Therefore, I request that the CFPB investigate which party is responsible for the ongoing incorrect credit card balance reporting and ensure the information is fixed to comply with the FCRA requirements for accuracy and dispute investigation. The current reporting damages my credit standing and I seek your assistance in resolving this issue.

Complaint:
Between XXXX and XXXX, I opened a new account and secured credit card with Wells Fargo, without being informed of any outstanding balances or issues related to my previous account closed in XXXX. Shortly after opening the new account, Wells Fargo closed it and withdrew the funds without warning or authorization, causing me significant financial hardship. As a direct result of this action, I was unable to meet my financial obligations, leading to my eviction from my residence. I have attempted to resolve this matter with Wells Fargo, but their response has been unsatisfactory, prompting me to seek assistance from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
