Complaint:
Upon securing an updated copy of my Credit Report from XXXX, I hurriedly checked the accounts which I previously disputed and realized that the Accounts were never corrected. I am frustrated by this and it disappoints me seeing the Credit Bureaus having no assertion about the status of the disputed accounts on my Credit File. The Credit Bureaus are given ample amount of time to conduct their investigation and correct the disputed accounts and yet they have failed to do so. The 3 credit bureaus must validate these accounts in line with Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). It is not authorized to fail to validate these reporting accounts as unverified information without providing any proof within the period allowed by law.

Complaint:
XX/XX/2021, I tried applying for a pre-approval letter to obtain a mortgage and when my credit report was pulled, it showed an arrear of inconsistencies from the 3 credit bureaus. While auditing my credit report, it showed an inquiry from EXPERIAN BUSINESS CRED, I never contacted or contracted with this company. I contacted EXPERIAN BUSINESS CRED by phone and letter. This is very frustrating and embarrassing, I tried challenging that they committed identity theft, Accuracy and Integrity but to no avail. My credit score has taking a a drastic hit to the negative, which is now affecting my credit score and worthiness. Now I'm losing out on deals that I was promised.

Complaint:
During the pandemic starting in the beginning of XXXX, I was so behind on bills. My employment suffered which made things not better. I also caught XXXX XXXX as well. But I do remember a settlement letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX who represents BEST BUY about settling the account for XXXX. I immediately jumped on it because I had to catch up. It took me 4 payments and I even got a letter from them stating that it's paid. On my credit report though it states that they closed the account and charged the amount off, but it still saying XXXX dollars is still past due. INACCURATE. I had a similar debt with XXXX XXXX in which I also settled with them. They closed it and there is no balance due showing on my report. So why can't BEST BUY do the same. I just want it show closed with XXXX balance

Complaint:
Hi, I was based in the apartment XXXXXXXX XXXX  from XX/XX/XXXX to the end of XX/XX/XXXX, my contract was until XX/XX/XXXX and they did not renew the contract because they wanted to demolish the apartment, but they allowed me to stay in that apartment until the end of XXXX, I vacated the apartment on XX/XX/XXXX and handed over the key to the office and received the receipt. During all the years I have lived in the apartment XXXX, I have paid all the rent in full and on time, and I have all the payment receipts. And I have no debt. After 3 weeks, I went to the XXXX  north office to receive the deposit amount, and they said that I should request the deposit amount from XXXX.And they gave me an email to correspond with them, after the correspondence and email sent by XXXX company, I found out that they charged me XXXX dollars, I followed up with the management of XXXX and they emphasized several times that I had no debt and printed a sheet for me that clearly stated that the balance was zero.After that, I corresponded with XXXX company several times by phone and email and inquired about the reason for the debt, but unfortunately they did not have an answer to my questions and said that we do not have information about your case and you should contact Collection.I have called the collection several times and sent emails, but I have not received any positive response and my emails remain unanswered. 
My explicit request : First of all, I don't have any debt, but if they think that I have a debt, they should clearly inform me which month and what the debt is related to ( for example, the amount of rent, water, gas, etc. ) As I said before, I have receipts for all payments and will send them if needed. 
Thank you.

Complaint:
I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction and concern regarding the egregious mishandling of my identity theft case by XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax. It has come to my attention that, despite being a victim of identity theft, each bureau have erroneously reported fraudulent addresses on my credit report, causing significant harm to my character and financial standing. 

This blatant oversight not only demonstrates a shocking lack of attention to detail but also suggests a complete disregard for the gravity of identity theft and its aftermath. The impact of these inaccuracies extends far beyond mere inconvenience ; it has tarnished my reputation and subjected me to undue financial and emotional distress. 

I expected, at the very least, a meticulous and responsible approach to rectifying the aftermath of identity theft. Instead, your bureau 's actions have exacerbated the damage, leaving me to question the competence and integrity of your organization. 

I demand an immediate and thorough investigation into this matter, along with the prompt correction of the inaccuracies on my credit report. Additionally, I insist on a detailed explanation of the steps your bureau will take to rectify the harm caused to my character and creditworthiness. 

Failure to address this matter promptly and adequately will leave me with no choice but to explore legal avenues and escalate this issue through relevant consumer protection channels. 

I trust that you will treat this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. 

Sincerely,
