Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention an erroneous reporting made by Self Inc to the credit bureaus, which has adversely affected my credit score. I discovered in XXXX that an account under my name with Self Inc had been reported with late payments, despite the fact that I did not open this account and had no knowledge of its existence until then. 

Upon discovering this, I immediately contacted Self Inc to request the closure of the fraudulent account. However, despite my request, the account remained active. Furthermore, when I asked Self Inc to provide verification that I had indeed opened the account, they failed to provide any useful information that could ascertain the legitimacy of the accounts opening. 

This incorrect reporting has not only impacted my credit score negatively but has also caused me a great deal of stress and inconvenience. I have taken steps to resolve this issue with Self Inc directly to no avail. Therefore, I am seeking the assistance of the CFPB to investigate this matter and to ensure the necessary corrections are made to my credit report promptly. 

I am willing to provide any further information or documentation required to support my case. Please feel free to contact me at ( your contact information ). I earnestly look forward to your prompt intervention to rectify this erroneous credit reporting. 

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Using my XXXX XXXX card via Synchrony Bank I had filed a dispute with and XXXX provider that will not stand by the one year warranty. The dispute was submitted to Synchrony Bank by filing and online and by phone dispute. Since that time, Synchrony Bank ignores my complaint and keeps asking me for tracking on the return to the merchant. They have been told repeatedly that there is no return and that the merchant refuses to exchange or refund my money. Synchrony Bank tells me that they have tried to reach me but that is also a lie. I get email and letters in the mail saying the dispute is closed then a phone call stating that they are working on it then emails saying it is closed again. They need to have a dispute area where you can actually talk to someone. Please see the uploaded PDF

Complaint:
I bank with Citizens bank in XXXX XXXX Michigan. On XX/XX/2023 I noticed 9 {$100.00} transactions and 1 {$50.00} transaction. None of which were made by me. I immediately called the bank to report it and have not heard anything or even got a claim number. I called today XX/XX/2023 to see what was going on with it. They had a claim on file for me for that date for $ XXXX which makes no sense. I was only reporting {$950.00}. Anyway even though I'm dealing with identity theft I just noticed right before calling and notifying the bank. The bank is claiming it wasn't fraudulent and won't refund it. This is all part of identity theft issues I'm trying to take care of and notified the government of. It makes no sense how they are refusing to refund these transactions. Everything I claimed they know is due to identity theft. I had to file another, hopefully final claim for payments due to a loan being taken out in my name. With all this other stuff going on with identity theft I'm still finding and learning about currently. They give me no other problems with the unauthorized activity I noticed prior to or after filing this claim and had no problems. Yet the one claim that took the most money out of my account and hurt me the most they are refusing to refund and it's outrageous.
