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:
This is XXXX XXXX and I am submitting this CFPB complaint to request to you to please correct my Credit File from erroneous reporting of accounts and information. When I checked my credit record, I just discovered a billing problem. Under U.S. Code 1666 ( b ), billing errors include any computation errors or other accounting errors on a statement, as well as the creditor 's failure to appropriately reflect a statement, a payment made by the debtor, or a credit line extended to the debtor. There shouldn't be any late payments on these accounts because, as far as I'm aware, the creditor did not send me a statement 21 days earlier. Below is the list of the disputed accounts. XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance : {$64000.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$12000.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$14000.00}

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX XXXX data breach as well as XXXX 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per XXXX and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

CFPB XXXX XXXX to Pay {$19.00} XXXX for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Including Wrongly Reporting that Consumers were Delinquent on Loans or Leases. I am also having the same problem with this issue above, I never ever had issues with non of my leased vehicles this is my fourth car being leased. I had a lease with XXXX, XXXX, then XXXX again then XXXX & this is the first time I had an issue with a company that's not reliable was told XXXX this on a phone call and they do something completely dependent, I had an issue with an excise tax that they sent to an old address that I had updated with them Multiple times by email and by phone. Never ever have I missed a lease car payment that directly removed from my bank account, but because of the car excise tax that was sent to an old address that I called and confirmed updated it Multiple time via email and calling. They added that excise tax as an missed car lease payment, which it doesn't make sense that not part of the car lease, I have been making the lease payment if they tried calling me or sent me a payment for the excise tax in the mail at the updated address I would of paid it, or even sent it to a collection agency so they could attempted to contact me for the excise tax of the vehicle, but not try to add that as part of the car payment and as missed payment. That's fraudulent, unacceptable never again I will buy or want a XXXX vehicle again or will advise any family member or friends to buy XXXX and leave some reviews online are a couple of big websites for vehicle reviews. Not a good company for customer service. Plus all this lawsuit for credit error. I have also logged-in my hmfusa.com XXXX account XXXX pull my payments history made to them from there financial app.

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX is reporting that I am currently late every month in an account that they write off in 2019 as bad debt. They issued me a XXXX that I had to include on my taxes and I am not currently late for any payments because the account is closed and should be reporting a XXXX balance. According to the law once a company has issued a XXXX for the debt. The debt is reported as canceled and you no longer have to make payments on it. It is not being reported this way because they are reporting as if I have missed another payment each month and keep updating my balance. Both experian and Equifax are reporting this account incorrectly despite several dispute requests.

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), you are required by federal law to verify - through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract - any and all accounts you post on a credit report. Otherwise, anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail or email in a fraudulent account. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) you have on file of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA, unverified accounts must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, you must remove the accounts listed below. I demand the following accounts be verified or removed immediately

Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a letter to Experian notifying them that the below accounts are reporting the wrong account balance, balance history and updated current balance. The balances being reported monthly are false and in fact the information doesn't make sense. For example, in the balance history for all the accounts below they show that a payment was made XX/XX/XXXX. The accounts were supposedly updated each month with a new balance, however, in the balance history the balance " after payment '' is different from the current balance owed. How is it possible for all the accounts to have been paid XX/XX/XXXX but have an update each month with the balance seemly decreasing. This is a clear violation of 15 U.S. Code 1692f - Unfair practices. 

These are the accounts in dispute : CHILD SUPPORT XXXXXXXX XXXX : Account number : XXXX, Balance is wrong, the date of the last payment made is wrong. The balance history is wrong. The balance updated date and current balance owed is false. The information reporting is impossible and doesn't make any sense. 

CHILD SUPPORT XXXX XXXX : Account number : XXXX, Balance is wrong, the date of the last payment made is wrong. The balance history is wrong. The balance updated date and current balance owed is false. The information reporting is impossible and doesn't make any sense. 

CHILD SUPPORT XXXX XXXX : Account number : XXXX, Balance is wrong, the date of the last payment made is wrong. The balance history is wrong. The balance updated date and current balance owed is false. The information reporting is impossible and doesn't make any sense.
