State: NY
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Problem getting your free annual credit report

Complaint:
REQUEST FOR FREE ANNUAL CREDIT REPORT!!! 
I believe that each consumer reporting agency has invalidated the true spirit of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act. The Act first established XX/XX/2003 was intended to establish a plan whereas common American citizens could obtain a copy of their credit reports at least once a year free of charge. Since each credit reporting agency now has marketing divisions such as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX   and XXXX  XXXX, the automation system to obtain the free annual reports is looped into an information request to steer citizens into additional product offers that are excessive and unnecessary. Even though I may have received an approval of an updated credit report from either XXXX, XXXX XXXX or Equifax respectively, it is unfair that I need to do a mail request since I can submit my personal information through the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) portal. I  believe that since the CFPB is the sole responsible oversight party of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, its imperative that any additional solicitation of information from the credit bureaus should be blocked permanently. I along with any other citizen should receive a free credit report upon request. The credit reporting agencies are an important aspect of the national banking system to properly function, but the current aggressive marketing campaign soliciting citizens for an arbitrary FICO score has gone too far, including but not limited to XXXX  XXXX. We must return to a common ground that is fair for all consumers in the United States, and we must be able to request additional marketing on our own terms. Accordingly, I am making a request for a free credit report with confirmation number to my attached email address. Thank you.

Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
XXXX Acct # XXXX I've attached the screenshots of my mortgage account report from the major credit bureaus, PROVING that XXXX is reporting erroneous, inaccurate & illegal information to my credit file. XXXX is reporting : 1. That a Foreclosure was INITIATED AS OF XX/XX/2022. 
2. My account status was reported as CLOSED, as of XX/XX/2022. XXXX. My account was reported as Flagged for a Bank Adjustment/Deed-in-Lieu/Bank Liquidation . 
I applied for the DC HAF program before XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  therefore I am protected INDEFINITELY, until DC HAF processes & approves my application for assistance. 
There is a Mortgage/Foreclosure Moratorium in place, by the Law : D.C. ACT 24-508. This Law PREVENTS ALL institutions from initiating or filing a foreclosure. So, reporting that is dishonest, erroneous, inaccurate & illegal!

I occupy & will be keeping my home. It is an OPEN account. Reporting it closed is dishonest, erroneous, inaccurate & illegal! 
There has never been a Bank Adjustment/Deed-in-Lieu/Bank Liquidation for my home . This is erroneous, dishonest & inaccurate.

This is harassment, threatening & bullying me as a consumer that was affected by not being able to work, due to the shutdown of my job, because of the pandemic. XXXX continues to make erroneous, inaccurate & illegal statuses on my credit files, although they are quite aware that I applied for the DC HAF program before the XX/XX/XXXX cut off date. 
Reporting an account to the credit bureaus is a CHOICE. Purposely XXXX erroneous information to the credit bureaus is a crime! 
I would greatly appreciate it if you would view the attachments and make the appropriate corrections to all of my credit files. Everytime you all commit these crimes, I will disputre them and continue my paper trail.
