Complaint:
I opened a dispute since XXXX with XXXX regarding an account wrong in my file from XXXX XXXX, I never opened an account with them. I called them today XX/XX/21 and spoke XXXX XXXX XXXX I think was her name from customer service and I gave her all my personal information and she did not find any account under my name. She recommend me to send a letter to them so they can contact me to open an investigation. I sent the letter today to see if I can resolve this situation that is causing me a lot of problems already with my credit. 

Also, I have the same issue with another account with Comenity Capital/CHLD, not mine and is in my XXXX credit file. I called them today also and spoke with XXXX in the secure accounts area and she said that she only have the account from XXXX which I paid in full in XXXX and it shows closed in their system but XXXX still have it open with normal balance I have at the beginning of {$500.00} something. XXXX then checked the one I saw in my file that I don't know what it is under Comenity Capital/CHLD and she said that there is nothing under this name that I only have the XXXX  which is closed since XXXX. She said that I was in need to talk with XXXX because apparently they added it by mistake to my file. I will not contact them back, I tried today and the rep. told me that their system was down and she could not help me the way I need it but she recommend me to open my disputes here and that would help to resolve my situation. I tried to buy a wash mashine that I need yesterday and it was denied because my score it's so low now that no one is going to give me credit until I fix the 4 accounts XXXX have in my file that are not mine.

My bag was stolen that contained my wallet & my phone & a few other things. After I figured out that who ever stole my bag was using my card and seen the fraudulent charges i called it in stolen. I made a police report. They sent me some forms in the mail I got them and i filled those out and signed the forms and faxed them in. & the same day I called to check if they received those forms they told me that they had denied my dispute claim and would not give me any sort of reason as to why. I dont understand how they denied it considering the charges are from a town 3 hours away from me. They basicly denied me and said sorry your XXXX.

Complaint:
For months dating back since XX/XX/2023, Ive been disputing inaccurate information on my credit report as Ive learned through the FCRA. Due to my inexperience doing this I looked up templates online to help type up a dispute letter and what a dispute letter should say. 

XXXX, XXXX and Equifax has denied me my civil right to dispute this information on my report. They wont even look into it. They continue to stall by sending letters saying they believe in a third party service etc etc. Everytime I responded by telling them it is me. And I wont even get a response. FCRA, states these companies have 30-45 days to investigate these matters and they have failed to do so, therefore they should be removed.

I am trying to buy a house and this delaying the process. I can not wait another 2-3 months.

Complaint:
I hope this note finds you well. I'm reaching out because I've noticed something weird with my credit report. For my account : Account Name : DEPT OF DEFENSE Account Number : XXXX It's showing an inaccurate payment history. I'm not seeing that account reflect on the other bureaus and the account is only reporting for the month of XXXX. 

Consumer Reporting Agencies are pretty important, right? I mean, you guys need to be on the ball with accuracy. This is why I'm reaching out to you directly - to clear this up. 

I'd be really grateful if you could check into this for me. Could you send me copies of the statements where it shows these late payments? If it turns out there's no proof of my payments being late, then it's only fair that these be updated to show that I've paid on time - because I did. 

I know mistakes can happen, but this mix-up with my payment history on this account isn't accurate. So, could you please help me out here and sort this out ASAP? 

Thanks a bunch for looking into this. I'm looking forward to getting my credit report fixed up right.

I am unable to get requested details or have a clear conversation with this loan servicing company. I have requested to speak with a point of contact regarding the loan which is in foreclosure. 
I have asked for an escrow history and was told only 2018 was available.Yet, at the same time, I was told that escrow analysis is done annually, but because the loan is in litigation and so far in default, all that was available was 2018.I am expected to accept Carrington 's calculations and add on fees without question. 
I have requested a copy of the XXXX XXXX ( original loan holder ) settlement with the state of Illinois and was told by XXXX, XXXX ID XXXX ) that only my attorney could request such documents. However, to date Carrington continues to have the lawyer originally retained 4 years ago listed on the account. Numerous attempts have been made to update the file with the current and correct attorney to no avail. I was again told on XXXX, XXXX that a third party authorization was needed Yet, previous authorizations have never been updated. This company contradicts itself in every phone call and lacks transparency. Please see attached confirmation of my experiences from a certified HUD counselor.
