Complaint:
It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many information, accounts, or items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA, the XXXX credit bureaus are required by law to remove & block any accounts or information which is found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please remove these files.

If they do not provide any records & claim the item is verified please understand I will seek legal action. I do not take kindly to games nor does my attorney.

Company: General Motors Financial Company, Inc.
State: TX
Product: Vehicle loan or lease
Sub-product: Loan
Issue: Managing the loan or lease
Sub-issue: Problem with the interest rate

Complaint:
General Motors has been using an incentive called Down Payment Assistance for the majority of the year on multiple vehicles which forces the consumer to finance a loan with their finance company, GM Financial, if the customer wants to receive the incentive. 

Down Payment Assistance is a 'cash on the hood ' type of incentive, where the customer will receive an extra {$1000.00} or {$2000.00} off the price of the vehicle if they finance a loan with GM Financial . If the customer decides to finance with a different lender then they will not receive the additional rebate. 

The problem is that the interest rates charged by GM Financial are considerably higher than other lenders in the market. Customers are being forced to finance with them in order to receive the added discount on the selling price of the vehicle. This in turn causes the customers to pay potentially thousands of dollars in extra interest over the life of the loan. 

Yes, a customer could refinance the loan with a different lender after receiving the Down Payment Assistance, but this would result in an extra credit inquiry which would lower their credit score, and there are other costs associated with refinancing loans. 

Please make General Motors stop their Down Payment Assistance program which is causing consumers to pay much higher interest rates through GM Financial and further enriching the XXXX XXXX at our expense. If there was no Down Payment Assistance the car dealers would set the customer up in a loan from a different lender which has much lower interest rates, typically 1-4 % depending on the customer 's credit.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Complaint:
I went to buy a car and was told by the dealer i had been denied a loan because i had 2 collection accounts on my credit report. I obtained the credit reports and it said I owe {$190.00} to XXXX & XXXX XXXX and originated with XXXX XXXX and {$570.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX originating with XXXX XXXX XXXX. Everyone who has owned a car knows you can not run a bill with insurance. If you do not pay by your due date your policy is cancelled and if you have an accident and attempt to make a claim it will be denied.

I believe XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX has committed fraud by selling this fraudulent debt to XXXX & XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX which is attempting to collect it from me. This fraudulent debt has caused my credit rating to go down by as much as 200 points.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
I have 2 late payments on my account because I attempted to pay it online repeatedly a few times and I kept getting kicked off the site because of technical issues. I trusted that the problem was fixed the following month but it appears it wasn't. By the time I had time to make the payment the payment was late even though I emailed the company to assist me. They also never called or sent me a bill in the mail so I had no other way of paying it. I have tried repeatedly to have the company remove the late pay history since its effecting my score and wasnt really my fault its just a difficult website. I have also contacted the credit bureaus but have not gotten the results i had hoped for there either. Please assist me in helping get this removed as it was not my fault. Thanks

Complaint:
I have contacted Experian along with the creditor for more than 3 months it is now going on 150 days where i have requested an original instrument contract bearing my signature. Ive asked both parties to send this information and none have been able to send this information. I am unaware of the fraudulent accounts and i have sent documents when asked of me but i haven't received any original contract with my signature. 1. Dept of EducationXXXX & 2. XXXX XXXX 's. I don't recall applying for any credit or finance. I have only applied for credit in person. I have filed an FTC, i have filed a complaint with the XXXX XXXX XXXX, i have contacted the Attorney General office and have filed a lawsuit on all three parties for slandering my name and credit file. I have asked Experian, to provide such instrument contract of originality with my signature but they have failed to provide me which such documents. All 3 parties have violated The FCRA sections 609, 605, 611 and many more. I won't accept this to continue any longer. I have been treated unfairly, i have been harassed by telemarketing numbers by creditors and credit bureaus. As i dispute the accounts before they were removed but placed back on my credit file. I never agreed to either companies or parties accessing my credit without my authorization with neither accounts. I have asked Experian for the procedure that was taken and how the steps are taken to exactly investigate the accounts properly but i was hung up on the phone, they denied me access and treated me like a criminal at times. I am in distress and saddened to see that we are in a battle war with the credit bureaus and creditors. No one can say an account is yours if they don't have any evidence that you signed for it. I never signed any applications in person.
