Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2020 I sent a letter to the credit bureaus regarding several inaccuracies that was on my credit report. This maybe due to my information being compromised in the Equifax Data Breach.I have asked for a resolution and have yet to receive a response. It has been more than 30 days and i feel as if my concerns are being ignored by these bureaus. I understand that in Section 611 ( a ) states, failure to investigate these items within 30 days give reason to immediately remove the items from my credit report. It has been 30 days. I demand these accounts be removed immediately or I will file for litigation.

The bank have been reduce my credit limit several time and they destroy my credit report and score I have contacted the customer service to the First Bankcard trying to connect with their credit department and the representative negligently act with me telling that the credit department do not talk to the customers. The customer service representative explained that the reason of the bank decreasing my credit limit is because they received from the credit bureau that my credit report was compromise with fraud alert. I mentioned to the representative that I was not aware of such issue with my credit report so he recommend to contact the 3 mayor credit bureau to tell them to stop the fraud alert. I called the 3 mayor credit bureau and I have even download my credit report to see if in reality I have a fraud alert. The 3 mayor credit bureau confirm that I do not have any fraud alert neither a flag on my credit reports and in addition my credit reports do not show any evidence of fraud alerts or flags. This bank have been decreasing the credit limit on the credit card the issue to me causing a huge damage in my credit history. Today I have to cancel my account with them because there is no way that this can be resolve directly with the bank. This bank works against their customers even that I have a clean a diligent credit history with them.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Public record information inaccurate

Complaint:
I sent a dispute letter on XX/XX/XXXX through Certified Mail to Equifax requesting a reinvestigation and the Method of Verification for an account on my credit profile through Equifax. Per the FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) : If the Credit Bureau can not VALIDATE the information with the original creditor, they must remove said information from the consumer credit file. I have attached copies of the letter from the US Bankruptcy Court stating they dont report to the credit bureaus. I have also attached a copy of my letter from XXXX saying my credit profile is frozen. How is the credit bureau verifying this alleged public record when the third party provider is frozen? Per the Federal Law, you have exactly 30 days to complete the investigation as outlined per the Fair Credit Reporting Act 623 ( a ) ( 3 ). Equifax has been non-compliant and didnt complete the dispute in 30 days. I further remind Equifax, as in Wenger v. TransUnion Corp., No. 95-6445 ( C.D. Cal. Nov.14, 1995 ), you may be liable for your willful non- compliance. The account in question needs to be removed immediately for violations against the Fair Credit Reporting Act, no validation in the 30 day time period, no validation with the third party provider of the data. I did not authorize a third party provider called XXXX to report this data against me on Equifax. The bankruptcy court cant verify this data due to privacy laws. The public record is non compliant, inaccurate, and unverifiable.

Complaint:
XXXX  ; Experian and XXXX  should not be reporting a collection/chargeoff in the amount of {$5000.00} or reporting ( 120 ) days late on the XXXX XXXX partial account number XXXX. ( Please see pages attached from my credit report. ) The original creditor on this account is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX sold this account to XXXX  and XXXX  has illegally been charging additional interest on this account. I have attached pages ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) of the Installment Loan Agreement for reference. Please note on page ( 1 ) the annual percentage rate being charged is 197.17 % ; on page ( 2 ) in the Promise to Pay section the interest rate being calculated is 200.00 % per year. First, these interest rates CLEARLY are illegal as they exceed the limit of what California could ever charge on a loan ; Second, this is PREDATORY LENDING to say the least ; and Third, Pursuant to California Assembly Bill 539 - - this Bill ends a decades-long practice of charging borrowers who take out loans between {$2500.00} and {$10000.00} with interest that can exceed 200 percent. The rate will now be capped at the nationally recommended 36 percent, whats considered a compromise between lenders and consumer advocates. This account needs to report a {$0.00} balance. There is no outstanding balance due and nothing to collect and/or chargeoff. It is also a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act to not report accurate information on a credit report. I have contacted the bureaus to update this account however, I have not been successful.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX. I sent in a dispute into Equifax at the address of record ; XXXX. XXXX XXXX, XXXX, GA XXXX. The tracking number for this dispute is : XXXX.

Procedure in case of disputed accuracy [ 15 U.S.C. 1681i ] Equifax has 30 days respond to the dispute beginning on the day the letter is received. It is now XX/XX/XXXX and I have yet to receive a response from Equifax regarding the results of my dispute. I contacted Equifax at XXXX PST and originally spoke with XXXX XXXX , when I stated the nature of my call and demanded that the incorrect information be removed from my report based on the law as mandated by the FCRA XXXX the agent hung up on me at approximately XXXX PST. I immediately called back and spoke with another agent XXXX, ID # : XXXX. XXXX says that they did not receive my letter until XX/XX/XXXX. Which is factually inaccurate as I have proof that the letter was indeed delivered and signed for on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX. She also specified that XXXX XXXX XXXX responded to them on XX/XX/XXXX - which is still more than 30 days after receipt of my letter. After getting nowhere with XXXX, I requested to speak to a supervisor. The supervisor XXXX ID # : XXXX regurgitated the same inaccurate information. When I recited a portion of the FCRA, he stated that Equifax has its own internal policies. In response, I asked if Equifax was violating the law. He replied that Equifax is following the law and refused to remove the disputed information. 

The letter that was sent was itemized. There were eight accounts in this dispute and they should be updated accordingly.

Complaint:
I received a phone call on XX/XX/2020 from XXXX at XXXX saying they were the lead officer and we're sending out officers to arrest me due to defaulting on my loan and committing fraud. I said I had no idea what they were talking about. They then said to call their legal department and gave me this number : XXXX.

I gave them the case number that the previous caller provided me with. I told them I had absolutely no idea what this was about. They told me they were just about to submit my case to XXXX County courts for frauding an FDIC institute. I told them I didn't take a loan out. They said it didn't matter if it was me or not because unfortunately all my information was submitted for a loan. They then told me I only had 2 options. Either go to court, or set up a payment plan with them today. I told them I had no money and there was no proof that I took out this loan. They repeated the options again. I was terrified and gave them my card information. They then said I would have to make 7 payments of {$140.00}. the said if I missed one payment, I would go to court. They said because I set up a payment plan today, they temporarily froze all legal action. They said it was for Ace Cash Loan Express.
