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:
I recently received correspondence from CFPB informing me that they closed my complaint submitted on XX/XX/XXXX because they believe that someone other than myself submitted complaint # XXXX, which is not true at all. I am asking for this case to be re-opened and investigated. I would like for the CFPB to take this seriously and not continue to send stall letters. Per my last complaint, I have been sending letters to all 3 credit bureaus since XX/XX/XXXX regarding an inaccurate account that they are reporting, but they have failed to send anything validating this account. XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion are reporting late payments for account OFFICE OF THE ATTY GEN XXXX when I was never late. I will attach a copy of my credit report to show the inconsistencies between all 3 bureaus. How are you reporting different information when the data furnished should all be the same? I have tried to have this information corrected for over 5 months, that is why I am now reaching out to CFPB to help with this matter. I am under the impression that the credit bureaus are disregarding disputes because there is no reason that this wasn't handled in a reasonable amount of time. If I have to bring this to court and hire an attorney, I will be asking for {$2000.00} per violation. At this time, I am only asking for the late payments to be removed and the account to be updated to paid as agreed. I will attach the dispute letter that was sent in XXXX. If you can not show me your method of validation and how this meets FCRA requirements, then please remove the late payments.

Product: Credit card

Issue: Problem when making payments
Sub-issue: You never received your bill or did not know a payment was due

Complaint:
I applied for a Best Buy card around XX/XX/. When I was in Best Buy I was approved and was told I got the Citibank Visa that can be used anywhere. I waited for the card in the mail and I did not receive it. When I went back to Best Buy on XX/XX/ to make a purchase they said they could see that I did in fact have a balance available. I called Citibank Customer service and they had all my information incorrect. My name is XXXX XXXX. They have me as XXXX XXXX in their system. They also had my address partially incorrect, they did not have my apartment number on file. When I applied at Best Buy all the information on the screen was correct so I don't know where the discrepancies came from. The customer service rep said she would correct everything and I could go ahead and make the purchase. So I did. Yesterday XX/XX/ I received a text message saying my card was yet again returned because my address was missing information. I spent 4 hours between Best Buy and Citibank trying to explain that they have my information wrong, they said they couldnt talk to me because I am not the primary account holder. I am the only person on this account. I finally got a supervisor at Citibank customer service but they said my account was locked because I called 4 times and I had to wait for a letter in the mail to reset my account. I will not get it because my mailing information is not correct. I am trying to get this taken care of because I don't know the due dates for payment. I do not want this to affect my credit score.
