Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
For the third time on XX/XX/XXXX ; I applied for a HELOC from Figure Lending LLC. I was turned down again with a score of XXXX. A Figure representative named XXXX; said it was because of a past delinquency. When I talked to XXXX, they tell me that I have not had a delinquency for close to 3 years. But, they still are stating past or present delinquencies. Also, a Heloc loan is tied directly to my home. So, there is very little if any risk! If I have had my home since XXXX ; don't this count to a mortgage company for something? 

A XXXX score is considered good. Usually, a conventional loan requires a XXXX score. I need the government to question Figure as to why they advertise a score of XXXX ; but my XXXX is no good to them! For the past three years, I have had XXXX medical issues. But, I still made my payments within XXXX days. If I was a different race and in a different zipcode ; I believe that their system would have approved my loan. I will not stop till I prove that I am right! 
The government need to fix this problem. Too many minorities are being hurt by companies with their redlining software!
