State: DC
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
On XXXX XXXX XXXX, I wrote to you requesting an investigation into items that I believed were fraud, 
inaccurate, and falsely reporting. To this date only response that I have received was computergenerated letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your 
opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a 
stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I 
believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA.
I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint 
with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.
I further remind you that, as in White v. XXXX  Information Solutions, 993 F. Supp. 2d 1154 - Dist. 
Court, (CD California XXXX); you may be liable for violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) by 
recklessly failing to follow reasonable procedures to ensure the accurate reporting of debts discharged 
in bankruptcy and by refusing to adequately investigate consumer disputes regarding the status of 
discharged accounts.
I have requested that all NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS provide proof 
of alleged items. I request to be provided with specifically the original application, contract, note, or 
another instrument bearing my signature.
In addition, any the contract signed between NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT 
COLLECTORS & the original creditor, notarized and sworn under penalty and perjury NON CREDITORS, 
COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS ability to collect this alleged debt.
I request this under 15 U.S. Code  1692g - Validation of debts. If information is not provided or the 
false reporting isnt removed; as in Wenger v. Trans Union Corp., No. 95-6445 (C.D.Cal. XXXX XXXX XXXX), 
you may be liable for your willful non-compliance. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 
100% accurate credit information. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is 
completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be reinvestigated.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
In accordance with 15 U.S.C 1681c-2, it is mandated that a consumer reporting agency promptly block the reporting of any information in a consumers file that the consumer has identified as originating from an alleged identity theft incident, with a requirement for action within 4 business days upon receipt of such identification. 

However, I must express my concern that despite the statutory requirement, it has now been 30 days since I brought this matter to your attention. This extended delay constitutes a clear violation of the law, especially considering my status as a victim of identity theft. I kindly request the immediate removal of these disputed items from my consumer report, as their continued presence is in direct contradiction to the law. 

Moreover, I would like to draw your attention to 15 U.S.C 1681b, which delineates the permissible purposes for consumer report furnishing. Subsection ( a ) ( 2 ) stipulates that a consumer reporting agency may provide a consumer report only in accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it pertains. It is essential to underscore that I have never provided any written consent or instruction to any consumer reporting agency to report the items in question on my consumer report. This situation is a direct violation of my rights as a federally protected consumer. 

I wish to emphasize that the absence of consent amounts to identity theft, a matter of significant concern. Therefore, as a consumer, I firmly demand the immediate deletion of the accounts in question from my consumer report to rectify this violation.

Complaint:
Hello, On XX/XX/XXXX I noticed that my credit score on Equifax had took a BIG decrease on my points of XXXX  points. So I called Equifax on XX/XX/XXXX and talked to a person name XXXX to ask why a big drop on my points when I was doing fair on my points. Well XXXX who is a specialist stated to me that XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX put a nasty remark on my profile on Equifax all because I wanted to Dispute the Double Jeopardy Accounts on my Credit File. Now I'm not sure if XXXX and XXXX will be affected by this nasty remark, but if so I want all three credit agency to be notified and not affect my points. 
I filed a Dispute with Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX about XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX with the same account as XXXX. In my letters I explained how I wanted XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX removed from my credit report because it was a duplicate account with a different name. XXXX was sold to XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX . However I was always in good payment with XXXX it's just XXXX  XXXX XXXX  XXXX bought XXXX Accounts from every customer. So back in XX/XX/XXXX my husband and I fell on HARDSHIP and settle all our debts with XXXX XXXX  and paid partial to XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX in a settlement. Have copies to send you. Also I have been trying since XX/XX/XXXX to dispute all inquiries from Equifax and XXXX dated on XX/XX/XXXX that I did not authorize or give permission to anyone to pull my credit report. If you can look at the attached paperwork you will see which one I have been trying to dispute with Equifax and XXXX. XXXX have removed all inquire but Equifax and XXXX will not remove and giving me a hard time. Please take a look at XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX and see why they have retaliated against me by leaving a bad remark on my credit file with Equifax. But also this bad remark may be on XXXX and XXXX in a few days. I really want XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX removed from my credit report now since they have been rude and with the double account. Thank you for your time in this matter.

Sub-issue: Overcharged for something you did purchase with the card

Complaint:
I've been encountering numerous issues with Amex recently, primarily concerning duplicate charges for which I am fairly certain Amex is at fault. They have billed me twice for the same transaction, even for transactions from the previous statement that I had already paid off. Despite presenting evidence to Amex and engaging in discussions with numerous representatives, I finally spoke with a supervisor who assured me that she would initiate disputes for these duplicate transactions. However, it has been a month, and the charges are still under investigation. Just a few days ago, I made two new transactions, and yet again, Amex duplicated the charges, billing me for a total of four transactions. I find this situation with Amex extremely frustrating at the moment.

Complaint:
Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX is INTENTIONALLY incorrectly reporting to all 3 bureaus and in an unethical way. 

Facts : The XXXX Leased XXXX Automobile was VOLUNTARILY RETURNED early, in XX/XX/XXXX. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX took until XX/XX/XXXX to CLOSE the account ( they themselves stated on the phone that this was indeed the date they CLOSED the account out. 
XXXX SOLD the auto at Auction and then accessed a charge to me for around {$12000.00}. which I never agreed was a fair cost to return the leased auto early. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX continually changes the closed date of the account to the 3 credit reporting XXXX XXXX XXXX RECENT dates to keep impacting my credit to reflect that I JUST RECENTLY allowed an account to default ( the last time they stated the account was closed is XXXX of XXXX! ) or they change the STAUTS of the account to show that the auto was recently REPOSSESSED! 
The automobile was NEVER repossessed, it was never paid LATE, it was simply returned to XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, Texas by me when I informed them that I could no longer afford to lease the vehicle, in XXXX of XXXX. 
I have called and called and disputed and disputed with XXXX XXXX XXXX via phone and mail. I have also disputed over and over with XXXX, Equifax and XXXX as well. Yet, no one can or will simply report accurately the FACTS and TRUE date the account was LAST PAID ( XX/XX/XXXX ) and the TRUE date the account was CLOSED finally ( XX/XX/XXXX ). 
XXXX XXXX XXXX representative just TODAY told me on the phone that if I will start making payments on the Early lease-break fee they accessed of $ XXXX, that they THEN would possibly correct the dates to reflect accurately. I CAN NOT think that this would be allowed, this is highly unethical collection behavior to purposely report inaccurate dates to try to force a payment 6 years later.

Issue: Problems at the end of the loan or lease
Sub-issue: Problem related to refinancing

Complaint:
I purchased a car from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I had bad credit so they let me put XXXX down and get financed. I was assigned to XXXX XXXX whom since has sold my account to US Auto. They financed a warranty for XXXX but my contract does not explain how much of my biweekly payment amount is going towards my warranty and my loan. I asked how am I supposed to pay off this warranty and they told me I could not, could not have my interest rate changed because my credit score has gone up, werent even reporting to all three bureaus with XXXX XXXX. I got this car that is work like XXXX and my loan is XXXX. Ive made every payment via auto deduction for two years and they cant even answer me why my loan was sold to US auto. I feel like without the option to pay off my warranty, Im still going to be paying interest on it for the entirety of the loan. I cant get the car refinance because the car is not worth what it was sold to me for. So Im stuck in an upside down loan, they knew I was desperate and had become a single parent very suddenly and needed to provide for my daughter. They keep selling my loan to collect fees, they said they do it to the best paying customers they have a list other lenders can pick from to purchase but in the contract it says assign and they said it was reassigned when really it was sold so they can collect a portion of the fee. I wasnt even informed it was being reassigned until it happened. I didnt consent to this
