Company: Santander Consumer USA Holdings Inc.
State: FL
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I sent letters to XXXX XXXX and XXXX  XXXX requesting that they update my credit report. Both companies are falsely reporting my account as 90 days late even though both accounts were paid in full in XXXX. By not properly reporting the accounts as current or closed ( as all other companies do ) they are affecting the algorithms which cause a negative effect on my credit scores. If they believe that I was late, that is reported in the history. XXXX XXXX is still reporting this account as open on XXXX  even though this account was paid off in XXXX. Both XXXX XXXX and Santander are reporting a late payment in XX/XX/XXXX on XXXX. This appears to be an attempt to re-age this account. 
I noted that only the auto industry reports this way, all other accounts are reported differently, and it appears that XXXX XXXX may also be complacent in this process. Sense most consumers who buy new vehicles are likely to upgrade every 4 or 5 years and the credit reporting agencies report these records for 7 years, this does affect consumers when purchasing another vehicle ( as well as other credit ). 
Neither company reported the account as disputed within the 30-day time period allowed. Santander received and signed for a certified letter on XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX XXXX sign for a certified letter on XX/XX/XXXX. I have copies of the certified letters as well as my credit reports showing that they never notified the Credit Reporting Agencies the accounts are disputed. 
Both companies are in violation of 623. Responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies [ 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ]

Complaint:
This particular account situation that is lately filing on my own credit document has a seriously unfavorable relation to my personal ability to obtain a present loan application. I highly recommend you generate verification that MACY'S/DSNB has been reported completely in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act regulations, it's really a serious problem to mis-report. More confirmation of the aforesaid item too. My proper request must over, I was never 30 days/60 days/120 days late in any of my payments and I'm not greatly tuned in to the date opened so I prefer to ask you be investigated as soon as possible and confirmed to be correct. Thanks!

Complaint:
I received XXXX  XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in the summer of XXXX when I was XXXX. I don't know why this bill, totaling {$240.00}, wasn't paid and why I am now being contacted by collections ( I received notice by mail for the first time on XX/XX/XXXX ). Being that I was XXXX old at the time and could not legally enter into a contract, nor did I have any idea that the bill wasn't paid until I recently pulled my credit score ( it was reported on my credit, but I had never been contacted by a collections agency or given the opportunity to dispute it ), this debt is not mine.

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:
I am writing to submit an urgent complaint against the credit bureaus, specifically TRANSUNION, XXXX for their persistent failure to conduct due diligence in properly investigating a negative collection item XXXX XXXX MANAGEMENT # XXXX on my credit report. Despite my continuous efforts to dispute the inaccuracies and their impact on my creditworthiness, the credit bureaus have neglected their obligations under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and have caused significant financial and emotional distress. 

I initially raised my concerns and initiated the dispute process with the credit bureaus over a year ago, providing detailed explanations and supporting documentation regarding the inaccuracies in the negative collection item. However, despite numerous attempts to rectify the situation, the credit bureaus have continually failed to conduct a proper investigation and provide the necessary documents to address the matter adequately. 

This extended and unresolved dispute process has had severe financial and emotional repercussions for me. Due to the credit bureaus ' inaction, my creditworthiness has been unjustly impacted, resulting in denied credit opportunities, higher interest rates, and limited financial options. Moreover, the prolonged dispute resolution process has caused significant stress, anxiety, and frustration, as I continue to face the consequences of the credit bureaus ' failure to fulfill their legal obligations. 

I firmly believe that the credit bureaus ' persistent non-compliance with the FCRA has directly violated my federally protected rights. Specifically, they have breached the following provisions of the FCRA :

Complaint:
XXXX  ; XXXX  and Transunion are reporting incorrectly a charge-off of {$13000.00} on the XXXX  partial account number ****XXXX. ( Please see page attached from my credit report. ) The vehicle was sold at auction and any remaining balance that was due I paid in full. There is no outstanding balance due and owing and therefore nothing to charge-off. This incorrect reporting of a charge-off is seriously harming my credit score and this line item needs to be either removed and/or updated to reflect accurate information on my credit report. I have contacted the ( 3 ) bureaus to remove and/or update these items however, I have not been successful.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: VA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Complaint:
On XX/XX/19 I went to the Navy Federal in Va XXXX ( NMLS XXXX ) to complete my loan application ; I gave them all of the information they needed except for a ratified contract because we were still waiting for it to be signed and finalized ; I was expecting for the application to be submitted with the property to be listed as TBA ; I took a copy of my ID, my income information, my social security card, my tax returns and copies of my bank statement. The agent took all of my information ran my credit and informed me what my rate options were, she also let me know that the loan can not go over 5 % over the life of the loan. After discussing the different rates available I decided to select the 3/5 ARM with a 3.25 % interest rate that would cost 1.25 % discount. I was given a pre-approval letter and left the bank happy. On XX/XX/19 I reached out to the LO assigned to my loan to let her know I had uploaded a few additional documents that were requested ; I also asked her to confirm that I was getting a 3.25 % interest rate at with a 1.25 % discount, the LO responded back on XX/XX/19 and it was at this time I was informed that my rate will be a 4 % with the same discount charge of 1.25 % ; I reached out to the bank and requested to speak with a supervisor who initially referred me back to my LO ; I then asked for someone above the supervisor to call me which they did ; the XXXX, XXXX, reached out to me and let me know that the information I was given was incorrect and that nothing was signed on the day I did the application so the rate was not locked ; I was also advised that my credit score did not qualify for the rate that was given to me even though the rate was discussed after my credit was ran and evaluated. After speaking to the XXXX a person from the Navy Fed call center called me and gave me the same information, she even went belittled me by asking " do you feel like you have A tier credit sir? '' She had mentioned to me that one of my scores was a XXXX and that the scores I had feel into the B tier ; after speaking to her I inquired about the LE, it was at that point I found out that the max rate can be a 9 % not 5 %. I believe as a consumer we should be given fair and accurate information and if a rate was discussed then it should be honored. .75 % is a lot of money over 30 years and to be mislead on information like this should be a serious matter.

Issue: Opening an account
Sub-issue: Didn't receive terms that were advertised

Complaint:
I opened an account with them on XXXX and did not know how to use it. 
I had not done much with it and on XXXX I got a letter in the mail dated XXXX for accounts ending in XXXX & XXXX stating they closed the accounts. 
I had not used the accounts and was puzzled. 
On the same day, I also got a letter dated XXXX saying welcome for opening your accounts on XXXX. 
I found this very odd. 
I called in and spoke with a lady who told me that the reason the account was closed was that I used my cell number which is from a XXXX area code. It was not the same as my address and it was considered fraud. I asked how a cell number I have had for a long time would be considered fraud just because its from a different state? She could not answer. So, I asked for her supervisor. XXXX XXXX got in the line and was very rude and unprofessional. He refused to address me by the title that I earned as XXXX. XXXX XXXX. He kept calling me Mr. XXXX after I addressed this to him. He would try to over talk me. He refused to provide me answers to why my account was closed. He told me he did not have too. I asked him that say question I asked the lady before and he refused to answer. I told him I worked for a news agency and wanted to know the media contact for the bank and he said he did not know the bank had one. He was very being very unprofessional in answering a question to a consumer. 
This bank and its side company need to be investigated. They need to provide answers to consumers as to why they close accounts and not just be allowed to close accounts with no accountability. Consumers have the right to get answers and not be stonewalled. 

After the complaint is submitted I will forward the letters for the record.

I am a victim of identity theft. Since 2015 two cards were opened at Chase. A XXXX XXXX, and a XXXX XXXX XXXX. To add to this, a Total Checking account and Savings accounts were also opened Fraudulently. I have learned recently that these accounts were closed. A few months ago I attempted to open a checking account at Chase Bank. Only to learn that my Online Access had been flagged for Fraud, which I changed my password. I was then told I cant open an account as past accounts were closed. I was shocked to learn these accounts were opened in my name as I never opened any of these. My email addresses were also hacked. Which I have also corrected now. When contacting chase about this matter they refuse to assist me. As a victim of identity theft this is a crisis. I want it resolved.
