Sub-issue: Application denied

Complaint:
Hello, I applied for the Best Buy credit card issue by Citibank a couple weeks ago.

My credit score is decent in the low 700s no negative items.

Citibank declined my application and the only reason they give me was that I have collections on my credit report which is not true but they approved me for account call progressive leasing which is not what I want. 
Last week my wife applied for the Best Buy card her credit is very good in the XXXX no negative items either, she was declined with the same reason and approved for the same program progressive leasing. 
We both had in the past rough times but who hasn't, I'm talking about 10, 15 years ago maybe more. 
We have been approved for XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. 
We don't have a lot of debt the only big item is our home. 
XXXX car loan with XXXX payments left. 
We open a business this year. 
We still have our jobs. 
I don't know if Best Buy or Citibank prefer approve consumers with a leasing program maybe because they make more money that way but I don't think is right. 
I am bring this to your attention to see if another consumer are having the same issue. 
thank you for your time.

They allegedly did an investigation to say that information was correct but when I spoke to the credit card company XXXX XXXX XXXX, they said that there is no account when they check my social security number. Trans Union refused to give me the account number for the credit card so that I can give it to the credit card company to verify who the account belongs to. How are they investigating and saying things are accurate that isnt there? They refuse to remove the account that isnt mine. My credit report bud saying payments are on time but I dont have a card and havent been making payments towards XXXX. Thats fraud!!!

Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports

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

Complaint:
I have provided TransUnion will all requested documents for my identity theft case and unlike the other 2 credit bureaus they continue to refuse to remove fraudulent information from my credit report. File number XXXX. I have provided an FTC identity theft report, a police report affidavit and all identity verification documents that are required. This is in regard to the fraudulent account opened in my name with XXXX XXXX. XXXX complied with the requests and the law but TransUnion is refusing to do so. TransUnion is in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act in continuing to not remove a fraudulent account from my report. They are basically saying I am a liar when i have been the victim. You are harming my ability to obtain any new credit. 

As clearly shown by the legislative history of the FCRA identity theft revisions, of which section 605B is the key provision, the purpose was to avoid any involvement of the furnisher or CRA in investigating the issue of asserted identity theft. If the consumer is willing to make a sworn statement before law enforcement, which carries criminal penalties for knowingly false statements, then that assertion itself is adequate to block the information from the consumer 's credit report. Conducting an investigation of the furnisher 's reporting is not part of the identity theft blocking process, and is not basis for denying the block under section 605B.

Their action appears to thus be willful noncompliance with the statute, subjecting them to punitive damages and court/legal fess, per FCRA 616. I will be seeking these damages against TransUnion if this fraudulent account information is not removed from my credit report immediately.

Complaint:
Ive attempted to make my payment multiple times. The latest time I called they said they would open a payment investigation. I called my bank to verify they attempted to pull the money on the payment dates and they have not record of any attempted debits from Mohela. 
They also took my account off auto debit and stated that I could set it back up online which I tried to do several times but it kept failing when I was trying to hit the submit button. I called to try to setup auto debit after that and they stated they couldnt set that up over the phone that I would have to request a paper copy of the auto debit form and mail it back. I requested the paper form be mailed to me of which I never received. 
These people are collecting interest on my account and saying Im in default when Ive been trying to pay my loan for months!
