Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
Im honestly stumped. Regardless of how many times I claim to be the individual writing this letter it seems this message is truly missed. For the record, Im the one whos initiating these disputes under MYNAME. The following items are UNKNOWN to ME. I dont get why youre claiming these are fraudulent or of a high risk nature. The documents Ive provided are legit. These are mine, filed with the appropriate agencies & support my position. Lets get the record straight!!! First of all I know that under FCA Section 619 Obtaining information under false pretenses that any person who knowingly and willfully obtains information on a consumer from a consumer reporting agency under false pretenses shall be fined under title 18 United States Code, imprisoned for not more than 2 years, or both. Most importantly, Ive never sent my documentation to anyone else which seems to be a claim that constitutes high-risk due to potential fraud. According to FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 3 ) Determination That Dispute Is Frivolous or irrelevant ( A ) a consumer reporting agency may terminate a reinvestigation of information disputed by a consumer under that paragraph if the agency reasonably determines that the dispute by the consumer is frivolous or irrelevant, including by reason of a failure by a consumer to provide sufficient information to investigate the disputed information. ( B ) Notice of determination. Upon making any determination in accordance with subparagraph ( A ) that a dispute is frivolous or irrelevant, a consumer reporting agency shall notify the consumer of such determination not later than 5 business days after making such determination, by mail or, if authorized by the consumer for that purpose, by any other means available to the agency. Again, under 617 Civil liability for negligent noncompliance [ 15 U.S.C. 1681o ] Any person who is negligent in failing to comply with any requirement imposed under this title with respect to any consumer is liable to that consumer in an amount equal to the sum of ( 1 ) any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure; and ( 2 ) in the case of any successful action to enforce any liability under this section, the costs of the action together with reasonable attorneys fees as determined by the court.

Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Deposits and withdrawals

Complaint:
I deposited a check through my mobile app on XX/XX/XXXX. It showed as deposited in my mobile app on that day, but by XX/XX/XXXX I still did not have access to the funds. I spoke to ally ( both a XXXX, and then sent to a real person ) via the mobile chat function and that person repeatedly told me that the funds had been deposited and became available on XX/XX/XXXX. I explained how that wasnt possible, that the funds would not become instantly available, and also that I have proof from the sending bank that the funds werent released until XX/XX/XXXX. The agent in the app feature repeatedly told me there was nothing they could do, that the funds has been released, and wanted me to believe I had simply spent or lost {$5000.00} ( the check amount ). When I continued to explain how that was incorrect, their response didnt change and they continued to maintain that my funds had been made available. I asked for a phone number and spoke with an agent on the phone who initially gave me the same non-sensical response, later claiming the money had been made available XX/XX/XXXX ( which was also incorrect ) but when I explained that I am very thorough about balancing my checking account, and that I would ask CFPB to investigate, there was suddenly more information available and the agent acknowledged that I had in fact never gained access to the funds and that it would be up to XXXX more business days before I would have access ( which would now make a total of XXXX weeks before I had access to the funds ). I am extremely uncomfortable that XXXX different agents tried to either convince me that I had the money and spent it, or simply gave me varying information depending on how assertive I was, and also that to this day I still do not have access to the deposited funds.

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.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
In my previous letters, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX XXXX data breach as well as Equifax 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
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:
The reporting agencies continue to report my student financial information incorrectly. The account has been discharged under agreement of XXXX, XXXX. The 1099-C was accepted and processed by the IRS. Since this was a certificate of indebtedness and is considered income the reporting agencies should not be reporting this account. I have tried to get the record corrected with no success. Under the Family Educational and Privacy Act my educational records should not be shared with third parties. The reporting agencies are not ANY affiliation to any educational institution therefore they should not have my educational financial records. Any termination of a consumer credit that has a balance due over one dollar is credit to the consumer, therefore reporting this account with a balance is inaccurate reporting which is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Several of the accounts are also listed multiple times on the credit report which means this report is not accurate which federal laws states the reporting agencies MUST maintain 100 % accuracy.

Complaint:
First and foremost I am the consumer. A natural person, allegedly obligated to pay a debt according to 15 USC 1692a ( 3 ). 

This Account # XXXX is showing on my consumer credit reports as a charge-off. It is illegal to furnish income on a consumer report. A charge-off, according to the IRS, is income and you must file a 1099-C. As it stands, I have not received a copy of this form. Remove this information from my consumer reports immediately. 

My rights as a consumer are protected under Title 15 Chapter 41. 15 USC 1601 highlights the consumer 's informed use of credit. At this time this alleged consumer credit transaction was entered on XX/XX/2019. I was uninformed and I did not understand as the information was not clear and conspicuous. The agreement is null and void due to your Company lack of disclosure and your unfair, deceptive, and misleading practices.
