Complaint:
Hello, I recently received a response to a dispute that I made under FCRA 611a regarding questionable and inaccurate items ( s ) around XX/XX/2023, on my credit report. I was confused when I learned you somehow " verified '' the disputed items, and they are still on my credit report. Can you confirm how this investigation was conducted and what the MOV was that was used? I am not disputing this again ; I'm specifically asking for the method of verification for the below. 

As you know, in Cushman v TransUnion, Stevenson v. TRW ( XXXX ), and Richardson v. Fleet ( XXXX ), the courts ruled each and every time that the CRA couldn't merely " parrot '' data from the creditors and collection agencies ... that were required to conduct an independent REASONABLE investigation to ensure the validity of the debt and the integrity of the creditor and collection agency in question. Sending out a generic form through the XXXX system for the dispute is not reasonable! Please FULLY validate with details on how you verified this ( names of people you spoke with and contact numbers ). If you are unable to do so, DELETE THIS ACCOUNT off my credit report forever, or I will gladly escalate to the CFPB and have my consumer protection attorney file court proceedings. 

Thank you and I sincerely look forward to your response.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: GA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC)
Issue: Closing on a mortgage

Complaint:
I opened a Bank of America home equity line of credit in XXXX for the amount of {$12000.00}. I have been paying on this loan for almost 20 years, it still shows that I have a balance of almost {$4000.00}. Today, XX/XX/XXXX, I checked my credit report and looked under closed accounts and saw that the Bank of America account was closed in XXXX. However, I never received any notification or documentation of changes to my account. Last month, on XX/XX/XXXX, I logged onto my account to make a payment of {$100.00}. I tried to login today and I received a message saying they were unable to process my request because there are no eligible accounts associated with my ID, even though I did not change anything. So, it is clear that something has gone on with my account that I am not aware of, and I have been making payments for all these years. Also, the fact that I still owe this amount of money after close to 20 years of payment, is ridiculous!

Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
I have already paid off my debt to Dave, so I no longer owe him any money. Although I called Dave and requested an update on my credit, they advised me to wait for about two weeks for the credit inquiry to be removed. I have diligently made all the necessary payments to Daves bank, even though I was only late for one payment. However, despite my timely payments, my XXXX and XXXX report still shows that I owe a debt, which should have been closed weeks ago according to Dave. Additionally, every time I contact Dave, they ask me to wait and now they are blaming XXXX for this issue. Unfortunately, this situation has negatively impacted my credit score, so I have decided not to borrow from Dave anymore if this continues to be the case
