I was trying to trade my vehicle in for a newer model and I was told from my salesmen that I could not make any trade. I asked why and he gave me no explanation. I pulled my credit to myself on XXXX  XXXX and there are many unknown, suspicious items I am not familiar with and many inquiries made under my name. I believe someone has stolen my identity and I need these things deleted from my credit report as soon as possible. I have already taken action to prevent anyone else to try and open anything under my social security.

Complaint:
I have received a number of collection on my credit report from Merchants Credit Guide. Each time in a different amount for the collection of XXXX XXXX.

I also have contacted the XXXX XXXX in regards to the collections. XXXX have stated to me that they have no knowledge and or records of the amount ( bills ) owe to them. I am frustrated with the company adding collections to my account with different amounts and account numbers.

Complaint:
I have filed three disputes with Equifax. They do not offer me an option to provide the written notice from the financial institution that they concluded, on XX/XX/XXXX, that indeed a credit inquiry that is showing on my Equifax report was obtained fraudulently. Standard timeframe is to see the inquiry removed in 60days. Equifax denied the first two, denied the complaint I filed through CFPB, and just today, XX/XX/XXXX, they would not provide me with the opportunity to attach the letter copy even though online there was not option to attach docs before submitting. They said something like nope, you can send it but that doesnt matter because its got to come from XXXX. Ive been inundated with personal tragedies for two years. Im a XXXX employee. I know my rights, but Im just so exhausted and they want me to give in when Im the victim.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX a balance of {$2300.00}. I never received a 1099 for that charge off. The amount has been charged off since XXXX, however it is still being reported on my consumer report without my permission. I disputed this through XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. They are currently still reporting that it is past due, although it has been charged off, which is ultimately affecting my consumer report negatively. I would like for this account to be deleted from all three consumer reporting agencies immediately as my rights have been violated. High balances for the accounts should be reported and it should be the same balance. Three different balances are being reported through the three major bureaus. This is another violation, and means for this account to be deleted from all three major consumer reporting agencies. 

According to 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( a ), the IRS states charge-offs are to be reported as income, and income can not be reported onto a consumer report.

According to 15 U.S.C 1681 ( 4 ) This information shouldn't even be on my consumer report because I never granted permission for it to be on my consumer report.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
Equifax failed to comply with 15 USC 1681s-2 ( b ). Equifax is civilly liable under 15 USC 1681 ( n ) ( i ) On 5/30/2022 a dispute letter was sent due to inaccurate information being reported and a reinvestigation of the claimed verified information from the furnisher. 

Equifax failed to conduct a reasonable procedure by their own industry standard of Metro 2. Equifax failed the Metro 2 standard requirement to report the full DOFD a ECOA requirement code -37 which is a violation of code. ECOA requires the date of first delinquency to report the month/date/year, not just the month and year as being reported. 

Equifax failed to report the account type as credit card code 18. The account type being reported as charge off/collection which is not an account type. Equifax failed to report consecutive 24 months of payment history. Failing to report May 2021 presents willful noncompliance.

In conclusion, Equifax has failed to conduct a reasonable investigation as required per 15 USC 1681s-2 ( b ) Due to your inaccurate reporting and failure to comply with 15 USC 1681s-2 ( b ), I received damages and harm due with a recent denial for a home loan. Because I was not able to secure a home loan, my family and I moved to temporary housing until I was able to secure permanent housing. My family and I also suffered a loss of days at work and school, moving expenses and losses of utility transfer fees and deposits.

Therefore under 15 USC 1681n Equifax is liable for actual damages, {$1000.00} violation and punitive damages.

Company: Bull City Financial Solutions, Inc
State: NC
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Medical debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was already discharged in bankruptcy and is no longer owed

Complaint:
Bull City Financial Services took over a medical debt that I MAY HAVE had from, before I was married, 12 years ago. The debt was from XXXX XXXX. My husband and I filed chapter XXXX bankruptcy on XX/XX/XXXX : Case # XXXX. No one showed up to our federal court hearing! This company MAY HAVE re-submitted this an old collection, that was included with our bankruptcy, in XX/XX/XXXX. When I contacted the company, they gave me the run around and said they couldn't locate anything about me. I disputed this collection with the major credit bureaus, explained my situation, and now they are launching full investigations. This, in my opinion, is potentially fraudulent because I have never visited healthcare providers from XXXX XXXX AND this Bull City Financial could not provide me with any information regarding the derogatory account they reported on my credit. When I requested a letter of debt validation, they said they would not be able to provide that for me. This is beyond harassment, what they have done is against federal law. My bankruptcy attorney is XXXX XXXX, of XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX. This company needs to remove the collection from my credit report or I will seek legal action against them! This company needs to be held accountable for underhanded actions, such as this.

State: TX
Product: Payday loan, title loan, personal loan, or advance loan
Sub-product: Personal line of credit
Issue: Problem with additional add-on products or services

Complaint:
On Thursday morning XX/XX/2023 I was hacked and all of my data compromised, my banking information, my email and cell phone was all compromised. The hacker stole all of my money from my credit union account which is tied to making payments to both loans with Upgrade. I attempted on Friday XX/XX/2023 to update all of my compromised data email, cell phone number and banking information with a representative who said they would need me to call back in 3 to 5 days so they could determine what needed to be done. I called today XX/XX/2023 and spoke with another representative that advised they would need to send codes to the email address or phone they have on file to update my information. I can not access the compromised email address as the hacker has complete control over all my data and I do not need this hacker causing me more harm by having access to the new data to the code to provide updated data and I have obtained a new cell device and modem and router equipment with my provider XXXX as the hacker installed a virus that updates all information to the hackers servers. Upgrade will not take my updated banking information for me to be able to make payments, they will not take my new cell number or new email address making it impossible for me to maintain my payments with them as I have NO ACCESS to my accounts and I can not use compromised data to access. I dont have access to the email and they advised the only way is to send a code to the compromised email account or phone which no longer exist. I was advised to go back and get the email scrubbed and reactivated so they can send a code and update my information which makes no sense whatsoever since I am the victim here of hacking which is a Federal offense.
