Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
The credit bureaus stated that my account was properly investigated ( BANK OF AMERICA- Account number XXXX ). I dont understand how that could be true when I have found multiple inconsistencies. The balance updated date is inaccurate, the number of months is incorrect, the last pay date is inaccurate as well as the account type. All of these are inaccuracies and by law is grounds for removal, my rights under 15 USC 1681 Section 602 A. States I have the right to privacy. 15 USC 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : It states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions. The credit bureaus have been negligent and have taken over 30 days to complete my investigation. They have also been closing the investigation without a response. They have recently closed my complaint stating that they could not find a credit file for me? How could that be true when they are reporting information on my credit file? Please remove this account off of my report due to negligence and inaccuracies!

Complaint:
I saw a photograph scanner advertised on XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. I ordered the scanner for {$300.00} and I was told by the merchant it was a special program in cooperation with XXXX for a low price and to buy an XXXX gift card for {$300.00} and use this for payment. I bought the gift card and paid for the scanner. It did not arrive and after two weeks I contacted XXXX about this. They said it appeared to be a scam, despite being listed on XXXX and they refused to accept responsibility for the fraud. I had charged this to my credit card " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' from U.S. Bank, ending in XXXX, believing their advertising claims that this card would protect me from fraudulent transactions. They have denied this claim for {$300.00}, which appears to be a breach of their contract with me.

Complaint:
I XXXX XXXX, natural person and consumer, have an open dispute with GM Financial regarding an unlawful contract based on obvious TILA violations regarding the Finance charge. My account with GM Financial had an account balance of {$0.00} as of XX/XX/2023. On XX/XX/2023 GM Financial illegally tracked my vehicle, breaking my right to privacy, and Stole my Vehicle that I use for personal, family, and household needs. This theft was in retaliation to me enforcing my rights under the Truth In Lending Act. I have a current arbitration case with American Arbitration Association case # XXXX. GM Financial is in breach of contract by not adhering to the Arbitration clause in the contract. They are causing great injury to me and my family. It is my belief that GM Financials Attorney XXXX XXXX has advised them to take unlawful action against a consumer under the color of law. A violation of 18 USC 242.

GM Financial is guilty of tax fraud by reducing their tax liability through the inaccurate calculation and reporting of the Finance Charge associated with the contract in question. The Finance Charge on the contract attached is NOT the sum total of all charges payable as defined 15 USC 1605. They have also received tax credit for a profit loss write off and then unlawfully seized property that was not rightfully theirs.
