Hello! I was alerted by equifax XXXX and XXXX that a bankruptcy was on my credit report. So I wrote the credit bureaus twice requesting their method of verification and I received letter from each that are very confusing to me. I dont know how they verified as I wrote the Alabama US bankruptcy court and they stated that they do not berify such information. See attached letter. And it is my understanding after research that only courts can verify this type of information.

If you had investigated properly rather then using your e-Oscar system you would have noticed that this account is not mine which your companies have claimed to Verified. Since youve obviously neglected to investigate this account thoroughly I am demanding you remove this account off my profile. It is at this time that I will point out the in Cushman v TransUnion, Stevenson v. TRW ( Experian ), and Richardson v. Fleet, Equifax et, the courts ruled each and every time that the CRA couldnt merely Parrot information from the creditors and collection agencies that they have conduct an independent REASONABLE investigation to ensure the validity of the debt and honesty/integrity of the creditors/CA in question. Sending out a generic form through the e-Oscar system that doesnt even contain my reasons for the dispute is not reasonable. 

If you dont initiate an investigation regarding my dispute, as it is my right under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I will have to take legal action to protect my credit rating and myself. Which Im sure you are aware each violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act allows damages of {$1000.00} should this matter ends up in court. 
I look forward to an expedite resolution of this matter Thank you.

Company: Netspend Corporation
State: AZ
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems
Sub-issue: Problem with customer service

Complaint:
I received what looks like a real credit card in the mail from Netspend. Their website says they do prepaid debit cards, that's the only way I know what it is. I didn't order this and suspect it's fraud. There is no way to contact Netspend to ask why I'm receiving the card. The phone number is just a recording tree that doesn't answer my questions and won't allow me to speak to a person. 

I was a victim of identity theft this year and want to make sure this is not part of that. The card has my name on it and all the usual terms and conditions paperwork that would normally be included with a debit/credit card. 

I also read online that some people are being issued their stimulus payment through NetSpend but I already received mine so I shouldn't be receiving a second one.

Complaint:
I noticed when we went to buy a house and the pre-approval loan was being run, that this loan was attached to my credit report and fraudulently opened. This was in XXXX and XXXX of 2023. I immediately contacted the company via phone and at this point 8 different times via email for documentation purposes. I have only received two responses back from a XXXX, who apparently is a customer service rep. Her only communication has been to ask for my ID and a report whether it be a police report or FTC report - I sent her my ID and also the FTC Identity theft report and letter I had filed. The first communication took over 2 weeks to get. The next took me sending 3 more emails asking for followup and she did not reply with any updates. I have since heard nothing back and can not get anyone to contact me. However, it is stating that the account is not being paid on. I have requested contact again today to rectify this- so that I do not get hit with late payments on my credit report. The name is not accurate. The signature not accurate, the address wrong, and more.
