Complaint:
I applied for a credit card from XXXX, I finished most of my application but stopped at where they asked me for my photo ID because after research I saw it was not a good card. 

The reason they asked for my ID was because I have an extended fraud alert on my credit report.

The company decided to open the card anyways without me sending over the required documents, so they charged me an annual fee or something and now I owe on that card. Once I saw this on my report I immediately disputed it but they didn't remove it.

If I didn't submit the requested documents for verification they can not open the account, that would be fraud. I have tried numerous times to contact the company and they do not understand the issue or I can't get a hold of a human.

Complaint:
Equifax ; XXXX and XXXX are reporting incorrectly a voluntary repossession on the XXXX account number XXXX. ( Please see page attached from our credit report. ) Shortly after purchasing the vehicle the independent inspection that we had done revealed that this vehicle failed to meet the standards as required under the law for safety and also this vehicle fell under the rules required for the Lemon Law. We returned the vehicle within the time allotted and were told that there would be no negative reporting on our credit report, but that turned out to not be true. I had documentation to prove the vehicle was not up to standards however, these documents were lost in a house fire. This was not a voluntary repossession or a repossession of any kind. The vehicle was defective. This incorrect reporting of a repossession is harming our credit score and this line item needs to be removed from our credit report. I have contacted the ( 3 ) bureaus to fix this however, I have not been successful.

Complaint:
I hereby file this CFPB Complaint regarding fraudulent entries on my credit report, which have surfaced recently. I did not authorize or participate in any of these entries, and they have significantly damaged my credit score, causing severe financial harm. Although I have made considerable efforts to challenge these fraudulent items with both the credit reporting agencies and the creditors involved, their response has been unsatisfactory. Despite providing compelling documentation and evidence of the fraudulent activity, these items remain on my credit report, inflicting ongoing damage on my credit score. I am convinced that the fraudulent items resulted from identity theft, and I am deeply concerned about their potential long-term consequences on my financial well-being. I, therefore, formally request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take immediate action to ensure that these fraudulent items are expunged from my credit report, and my credit score is restored to its previous level. Specifically, I insist that the following items be removed from my credit file : XXXX XXXX Balance : {$0.00} XXXX XXXX Balance : {$0.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$0.00} XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX : {$5000.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$580.00} XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX {$2600.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX. ) XXXX Balance : {$450.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XX/XX/XXXX XXXX The fraudulent items on my credit report comprise multiple credit accounts that I did not open, as well as various charges and loans that I neither initiated nor received. Their total amount is significant, and their impact on my credit score has been negative.

Complaint:
ALLY BANK repeatedly freezes my bank account / debit card without notice. 

I am a 100 % XXXX veteran and my pension is deposited to my ally bank checking account every month. I have all of my monthly bills set to autodraft off this Ally Bank account. However, on at least 3 occasions during the past 6 months Ally Bank has frozen my bank account without notice and without the courtesy to confirm whether or not I authorized such banking transactions, the end result which affected my ability to pay my bills on time and negatively impacted my personal credit score.

This week my account was again frozen without notice or communication from Ally Bank as I only discovered my account was frozen when I attempted to buy grocery. Nonetheless, I contacted Ally Bank and their only response was that they will contact me in 1-2 business days which in this event due to the holiday it will be 7 to 10 calendar days before Ally Bank responds to my inquiry. 

Meanwhile, I am unable to pay my bills or buy grocery and medicines. 

I don't understand why Ally Bank continues to randomly freeze my bank account without notice and then expect me to wait 2 weeks before I can access my pension funds. 

At this time, I intend to notify the Department of Veterans Affairs to warn other Veterans not to bank with Ally Bank or do Business with Ally Bank so that they are not victimized as I have been by Ally Bank 's unexplainable fraudulent policies and repeated failures to notify the bank account holder that Ally Bank suspects anything fraudulent with their bank account.

Complaint:
I feel these accounts are having a negative impact on my credit score and costing me thousands of dollars in interest each year. This is not a regular dispute ; in addition, I have filed a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission and the Better Business Bureau since I am not aware of any of these accounts. I need this problem resolved as soon as possible ; I will not wait another 50 days for no response because you are clearly ignoring me. I demand that these accounts be removed immediately, or I will file for litigation as a result of the anxiety you have caused me. It is clearly stated in Section 611 ( a ) that failing to investigate these matters within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove these things off my credit report immediately. It has been 50 days, so they should be erased immediately.
