Issue: Incorrect information on credit report
Sub-issue: Information is not mine

Complaint:
TODAYS DATE:XX/XX/XXXX XXXX SOC SEC XXXX XXXX DOB XX/XX/XXXX ADDRESS XXXX, FL XXXX Equifax XXXX, GA XXXX XXXX, Texas XXXX XXXX, PA XXXX XXXX. 


I recently submitted a request for investigation of an Acct Number : XXXX I 've submitted enough information regarding the fraudulent account that 's open in my name I have provided information for your company to have carried out a reasonable investigation of this dispute. If you had investigated properly rather then using your XXXX system you would have noticed that this account is not mine which your companies have claimed to " Verified ''. Since you 've obviously neglected to investigate this account thoroughly I am demanding you remove this account off my profile. It is at this time that I will point out the in XXXX, XXXX ( XXXX ), and XXXX, Equifax et, the courts ruled each and every time that the CRA could n't merely " Parrot '' information from the creditors and collection agencies ... that they have conduct an independent REASONABLE investigation to ensure the validity of the debt and honesty/integrity of the creditors/CA in question. Sending out a generic form through the XXXX system that does n't even contain my reasons for the dispute is not reasonable. 

If you do n't initiate an investigation regarding my dispute, as it is my right under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I will have to take legal action to protect my credit rating and myself. Which I 'm sure you are aware each violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act allows damages of {$1000.00} should this matter ends up in court. 
I look forward to an expedite resolution of this matter Thank you.

Company: AMERICAN INTERNET MORTGAGE
State: AL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional fixed mortgage
Issue: Application, originator, mortgage broker

Complaint:
I completed an online mortgage application ( jointly, for myself and my spouse ). Two days later, I noticed that both my and my wife 's XXXX credit scores had dropped by over XXXX points. I expect a slight drop after a hard inquiry, but nothing close to XXXX points! When I investigated, I learned that AimLoan had made XXXX separate hard inquiries one day apart - once on XX/XX/XXXX and once on XX/XX/XXXX. There was no change in the scores reported on the XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX reports they received ; however, immediately following the second inquiry, our XXXX scores were dramatically hit. When I initially asked AimLoan why XXXX separate inquiries were made, several representatives told me that it should only count as one inquiry and that I should " not overreact '' to a " slight drop '' in my credit score. Unsatisfied with that answer, I continued questioning AimLoan representatives further. I then learned that they first ran our credit scores individually. Then, when they realized their error ( that the initial paperwork was for a JOINT mortgage ), they ran us a second time jointly the following day. I spoke with a XXXX representative and they stated that AimLoan could call them directly to have XXXX of the XXXX inquiries removed and correct our credit scores. To date, I have asked AimLoan representatives multiple times to call XXXX and they have refused. Even though they have assured us multiple times that their inquiries should only count as XXXX hard inquiry, they are unwilling to call XXXX to ensure that result. The loan is still in process, and given the company 's lack of concern and unwillingness to make a simple phone call to correct their duplicated hard inquiries, we are beginning to feel like they 're trying to prevent us from shopping around/getting a competitive rate with this significant hit to our credit scores. I 've talked to XXXX different AimLoan representatives and attempted to work through their Complaint Department and have made no progress. No one will explain to me WHY they wo n't call XXXX to have this simple error corrected.

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX XXXX has been harassing me in an attempt to collect a debt that was paid off over 10 years ago. This is another collection company that is trying to collect on a debt that was paid. This company threatened to take legal action on the very first call to me and would not listen to my side and kept changing their version of supposed previous events from a previous attempt. The caller tonight became verbally hostile on the phone and when asked for a cancelled check for a cancelled payment said they would not discuss the issue anymore and would see us in court.

Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Complaint:
Despite multiple attempts, I have been unable to resolve the issue of fraudulent inquiries appearing on my consumer report. These inquiries are not associated with me in any way, and I bear no responsibility for them. Their presence has caused significant mental and financial distress. As a victim of identity theft, I have no alternative but to consider legal action if this matter is not appropriately addressed. These inaccurate and fraudulent items on my consumer report have hindered my ability to purchase my dream house and provide for my family 's needs. The impact on my financial well-being has been substantial. For your reference, I have attached a copy of the letter I previously sent to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), which outlines this issue and seeks resolution.

Company: Earm LLC
State: CA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Payday loan
Issue: Disclosure verification of debt
Sub-issue: Not given enough info to verify debt

Complaint:
Before I begin with the issues, I do want to make reference that the name that they have the debt under for me is my prior married name, XXXX XXXX, not XXXX XXXX. 

There are multiple issues with this debt collector. The first is that they are unwilling to provide me with verification and validation of the debt. The only documentation that they can provide is a letter from themselves stating the balance that I owe. I do not remember taking out the debt and they can not provide me with contact information for the company that they are attempting to collect he debt for so that I can validate that it is legitimate. They will not provide me with the date that the loan was originated so that I can verify that funds went into my bank and confirm who the loan was taking out with. They can not give me the original contract for the debt that I signed. They ca n't confirm anything. 

The second complaint, is that they call themselves a mediation firm and the collectors that answer the phone reference themselves as Inspectors as though they are part of law enforcement. Specifically XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX x XXXX. I have been receiving phone calls now since prior the middle of XXXX, where after I request documentation or to speak with someone higher up, they hang the phone up on me. I have been told that I am going to go to jail if I do not pay the debt owed. Since I am not complying, court paperwork has been filed and that I will be served paperwork to show up in court. They have told me over and over that since I did not take the offer provided and make good on the debt that I owe through our conversation that I was being pursued for Fraud and some sort of Money Evasion, I can not remember the legal term that they used. 

Third, they claimed that they traced the IP address that I took the loan from and were able to validate the home address where I took the loan from. However, they could not validate the date that the debt was originated. I do believe that tracking someone 's IP address down is illegal unless you are law enforcement. 

Fourth, I am being contacted by a process server company that is trying to obtain my personal information in order to serve me with paperwork. The same process server is calling my family claiming to be with CHILD SERVICES and they desperately need to get in touch with me in regards to my children and need my home address. Their tactics are fowl.

Complaint:
I have consistently been fighting to have this account permanently removed since 2018. I am very stressed because Ive been fighting for YEARS. I am a victim of Identity Theft. Someone broke into my car and charged thousands on my at the time USAA credit card. I sent in multiple police reports, ftc reports, written letters, statements and all and the credit bureaus always says its valid. I even had a letter showing the account was deemed fraud yet they have held me responsible for over 4 years. I am tired. Now, they havent even reported anything in 2 years but still on my report as negative.

Complaint:
on XX/XX/2020 I sent a letter regarding inaccurate items on my credit report. it has been more than 60 days and these items are still on my report. if these items are not removed, I will be forced to seek legal actions since I feel that I am being taken advantage of and this situation is preventing me from progressing in life. I even sent a notarized affidavit concerning this issue. section 611 ( a ) states that a failure to investigate items accuracy within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report. I would appreciate an update immediately at your earliest convenience so that i will not have to take legal actions and file another complaint elsewhere.
