Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
To whom it may concern : After I made the decision to use my rights under FCRA, I was looking to challenge any inaccurate information in my credit reports. By fighting back against this injustice, I am ensuring that the information on my credit report is accurate and reliable. I have every right to challenge any inaccuracies in a manner compliant with federal law when they are impacting my credit score and my ability to get loans. This is just an allegation. There's no proof that I'm delinquent or derogatory, so how can you report this? With all due respect, the claims within my report are wrong! You have to follow proper procedures if these claims are in your system and to be used in my credit reports! I challenge the accuracy and fairness of your findings by demanding evidence before you make any claims and take such drastic measures against my reputation. I know that you cant just decide which rules apply to your organization, so I won't let anyone report any false claims. It's important to make sure all of your claims are accurate and reported in the correct format- this is required by law ( FCRA ) as well as XXXX XXXX standards. For any negative account, I demand documentation/proof proving why your company considers it delinquent or derogatory. You have yet to provide me records documenting how your company verified and validated these accounts/claims. Your proof of each negative claim you placed on my credit report should also include proof of a permissible purpose for any inquiry into the account. It's time for me to get my life back! I need you to send over some physical proof of what has been done and an updated credit report. Either confirm that this matter has been reported correctly or remove it from the report immediately. I am giving you 30 days to investigate. These allegations are without merit. Please provide accurate and verified information for each claim. If any of these claims are not true, please delete them immediately so I can restore my good name.

Complaint:
I am writing to dispute accounts and inquiries that are reported on my consumer credit report referenced below that are the result of identity theft and any unauthorized inquiries and demand verifiable proof bearing my signature/electronic signature. I never authorized such action and this constitutes a violation of my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 605B.

I have contacted these companies and found these actions were initiated without any compliant validation or original proof from any of the companies reporting. These accounts and inquiries are not factual since I never authorized them and are therefore the result of identity theft and or the illegal reporting of my consumer information by creditors and or XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Banking errors

Complaint:
I filed a claim on XXXX XXXX for {$4900.00}. They closed my claim prematurely without doing any research. I provided documentation to BOA on XXXX XXXX when I received a letter in the mail requesting more information. I called on XXXX XXXX to be certain the document was received. That is when I was informed that they did a chargeback to the merchant for the wrong amount and would have to reverse the chargeback and reissue for the correct amount. I asked that my account be given a temporary due to the delay by BOA. I recieved the letter requesting more information well after ten days and its no fault of my own that they created the chargeback for the wrong amount. BOA has refused to cooperate with my request and I have called and escalated the situation, spoken with managers everyone has told me they submitted the request but it is not guaranteed that anything will be done. Boa has failed me miserably and placed me and my family in a financial crisis. Due to mistakes that were not made by me.

When I was discharged ( XX/XX/XXXX ), I saw that someone had forged my signature on the discharge papers and even spelled my name wrong. It was not a family member because the hospital did not allow any family members to visit me.

XXXX XXXX told us that the funds were unavailable, despite the letter from Navy Federal that I received stating that the {$5500.00} would be returned to our account.
