Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Personal information incorrect

Complaint:
This is my second complaint against XXXX. In regards to my first complaint ( Case Id # XXXX ). I sent XXXX an affidavit of Truth ( sent XX/XX/2021, dated XX/XX/2021 ). I attached two proofs of Id ( photo id, and a utility bill, and a notary attachment, and an FTC report ( # XXXX ). Which is more than enough to verify my identity. However, XXXX sent dispute results ( dated XX/XX/2021 ) saying I need to provide them more information in order for them to act upon my request for them to remove the fraudulent inquiry on my consumer report. Pursuant to 15 U.S.C 6802b ( A ) ( B ) ( C ) financial institutions may not directly or through any affiliate, disclose to any non-affiliated third party any non-public personal information unless such financial institution provides or has provided to the consumer a notice that complies, I did not authorize the inquiry XXXX ( see attachments ). In regards to the collection accounts furnished by AWA COLLECTIONS ( see attachments ) this is a violation of my HIPPA rights pursuant to 45 CFR 164.502 no such entity may disclose protected health information, except as permitted or required, pursuant to an authorization, and agreement, which was not given. I have also disputed the same accounts from AWA COLLECTION with XXXX and XXXX, and both have deleted these accounts. ( see attachments ) XXXX has violated my rights as a consumer and they are civility liable pursuant to 15 U.S.C 1681n. I am demanding they delete all the incorrect, inaccurate, or wrong spelling of my name ( it should match my driver 's license- see attachments ) addresses and employers and delete all the accounts and the inquiry and mail me an updated copy of my consumer report. 

Attachments included 1. Affidavit of Truth 2. Photo Id 3. Utility Bill 4 Certified Mail Recepit 5. certified mail Green Card 6. Identity Theft Report 7.

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:
Company reported the incorrect balances in XXXX, XXXX & XXXX. Investigation didnt resolve the problem. Only made it worse. My credit score decreased by 79 points because the company reported balances that were not equivalent to the actual statement balances. Theyre reporting balances AFTER the statement closes which are higher. I was denied credit and denied credit line increases because my utilization has been at 58 % or higher because of their errors instead of being at the recommended 30 % or less.

Company: Credit Karma, LLC
State: CT
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
Several weeks ago, I attempted, for the first time, to sign up for an account with Credit Karma. 

During that process, the website indicated that an account had already been established in my name. 

I have never before opened, nor attempted to establish any Credit Karma account, nor has anyone ever been authorized to do so on my behalf. 

The Person or persons responsible for establishing and accessing this account have done so fraudulently and have done so using my personal identifying information. 

My attempts to reach the executive offices of Credit Karma have been unsuccessful since the company has NO contact information including valid address, working phone numbers nor email or fax numbers for its executive offices. 

While it is deeply disturbing to learn that confidential information has been fraudulently accessed and may have been disseminated, my concern is further magnified given the absence of clarity as to how long this account has existed or what actions third parties may have taken using this information in violation of applicable law. 

Upon discovery I filed a report with the XXXX Police Department indicating that my identity has been compromised. The Case Number is XXXX. 

I believe that the same parties have been illegally obtaining access to other accounts using my personal identifying information. 

I would like to determine all the salient facts so that I can protect my rights and take appropriate action. 

I would hope and expect that Credit Karma will seek to have the responsible held accountable under all applicable civil and criminal laws. Credit Karma needs to also establish a commercially reasonable way that their offices can be contacted in similar circumstances and to establish procedures to prevent this from recurring.

Complaint:
On XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( XXXX ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( XXXX ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( XXXX ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( XXXX ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the 2015 OPM data breach as well as XXXX 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

Complaint:
In XXXX of XXXX I cosigned a student loan for my brother to go to the XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. In XXXX of XXXX my brother passed away, still owing {$100000.00} on the loan. On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted Firstmark Services to inform them of my brother 's passing. On XX/XX/XXXX I paid Firstmark Services {$1700.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX Firstmark forgave the loan. On XX/XX/XXXX Firstmark returned my check for {$1700.00} stating the loan was paid. On XX/XX/XXXX Firstmark removed the loan from my online account. On XX/XX/XXXX I called Firstmark to get the check made out in my name instead of the estate of XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I called Firstmark and spoke with XXXX, there was no update on the check re-issue. On XX/XX/XXXX I called Firstmark and spoke with XXXX, check re-issue under review. On XX/XX/XXXX I called Firstmark and spoke with XXXX, check re-issue was approved and would be sent XX/XX/XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX Received a call from XXXX XXXX XXXX who stated that he was the Assistant Attorney General. He stated that Firstmark did not have the authority to forgive the loan and I needed to make arraignments with him to repay the loan. XX/XX/XXXX Firstmark put the loan back on my online account. XX/XX/XXXX Firstmark cancelled the check and applied it to the loan. On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted Firstmark asking to be released from the loan. They replied no on XX/XX/XXXX. At the time I cosigned the loan I was able to pay it back. I'm now XXXX XXXX XXXX, with medical issues that don't allow me to do the work I was able to do 20 years ago. My brother was making {$120000.00} a year, I currently make {$30000.00} a year. After speaking to XXXX, he said they would settle on the loan if I paid 75 %. For me to pay that I would have to use most of my retirement savings, leaving me nothing to live on for the rest of my life. My other option is to pay the loan for the rest of my life.

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 Experian, XXXX XXXX or XXXX   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 Experian Boost. 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.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/21, I applied for credit with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX but was denied and advised I would need to wait for the letter in the mail to determine why I was denied. When I received the letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX, I noticed my XXXX  score that was provided by Experian was incorrect which caused me to denied. I reached out first to XXXX XXXX XXXX  via the phone number on the letter to dispute but they stated their decision was based on what was provided by the credit bureau. 

I disputed the hard inquiry on my credit report in writing and asked they REMOVE the hard inquiry as they provided my XXXX score as XXXX which was inaccurate. I submitted proof to Experian by sending a screen shot of my XXXX score on XX/XX/21 proving my fico score was XXXX but they denied to remove the hard inquiry as XXXX XXXX. 

Experian was negligent and is demonstrating willful noncompliance per the FCRA by reporting inaccurate information which caused me to be denied services and impact my fico score. This is my last time disputing before reaching out to an attorney.
