Complaint:
XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, California XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing this letter to dispute the inaccuracies and illegalities in my credit report that have caused significant harm to my credit score and financial well-being. Specifically, I am concerned with the actions of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 

Firstly, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX late payment on my account XXXX XXXX  XXXX which is completely false. I have never missed a payment on this account and have always paid on time. This violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) has caused undue harm to my credit score and has the potential to impact my future financial opportunities. 

Secondly, XXXX XXXX has reported my account XXXX XXXX XXXX  as charged off, which is also false. I have made several attempts to rectify the situation with the company, but they have refused to acknowledge my payments and have continued to report the account inaccurately. This violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act ( FACTA ) has caused significant damage to my credit score and my ability to secure credit in the future. 

Thirdly, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX. has reported my account XXXX XXXX XXXX as being in collection, which is also false. I have never received any communication from them regarding a collection account, and they have not provided me with any proof of such a claim. This violation of the FCRA and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) has caused unnecessary harm to my credit score and my financial reputation. 

Lastly, XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX. XXXX has also reported my account XXXX XXXX XXXX  as being in collection, which is completely unfounded. This violation of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act ( RESPA ) and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act ( ECOA ) has caused significant damage to my credit score and my financial stability. 

I request that you investigate these inaccuracies and take appropriate action to rectify the violations of the above-mentioned laws. Please provide me with written confirmation of your findings and the actions taken to rectify these violations. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint:
I opened a credit card that was supposed to come with benefits. None of the benefits were received. Immediately upon opening the credit card I called AMEX to confirm I would receive the benefits of the card, most specifically the platinum elite status with XXXX and was told this could take some time. That is not in the terms and conditions of the card that it would take some time. The terms and conditions state that when the card is opened I am platinum elite with XXXX. I called numerous times to AMEX to try to convey to XXXX that I have this card spending over an hour and a half on the phone on XX/XX/XXXX. Please listen the calls. At the end of the hour and half I said I was dissatisfied that my problem could no be solved ( I did not show as platinum elite in the XXXX system online ) and I was put on hold and then disconnected. Terrible service.

Complaint:
It appears that my credit/my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many information, accounts or items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA you are required by law to remove & block any account or information which is found to be opened due to identity theft. This is not a duplicate nor is this complaint being filed by a third party, I am filing this complaint myself. Please see this complaint is processed to the letter of the law. The dispute item do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please block/remove this files. [ account/item ] XXXX OF XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : XX/XX/2011 Balance : {$11000.00} If you feel there is a possibility this account belong to me I will require all documentation that bears my signature ( another research item I found that requires you to verify with 100 % accuracy that each account is 100 % true, accurate, correct, complete & VERIFIABLE ). If you do not provide any records & claim the item is verified please understand I will seek legal action. I do not take kindly to games nor does my attorney. SO please comply with the law so this matter can be handled swiftly.

Complaint:
This is not a duplicate nor is this complaint filed by a third party. I am filing this complaint myself. Please see this complaint is processed to the letter of the law. I have been sending countless letters appealing to Transunion to verify the disputed account and remove it if unable to prove that the account is mine. Transunion is failing to block or remove the account from my report. I filed a report on the FTC website, I specified how the identity theft took place, and that I did not benefit from or receive goods or services from the alleged account. I also reached out to the company and they agreed to delete the account from my file BUT TransUnion has some internal block that they're claiming they can use to not block the account because they feel they're above the law. When asked why they're not accepting the FTC report they claim they have an internal policy ( which is OUTSIDE FCRA laws ) & they're unwilling to explain why. I have had ENOUGH! HOW MUCH DOCUMENTATION does it take to get SOMEONE to REALLY DO SOMETHING?? LOOK at the attachments! THIS IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE! PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE my request and DELETE the account which I do not own XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX
