State: TX
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:
I wish to file a complaint to CFPB AGAIN as my rights have been violated under the FCRA Law and fair credit and billing Act and HIPPA Privacy law. I have been trying to resove these issues with Equifax and have not heard back. I have continued to receive unwanted call from these companies especially from XXXX XXXX disclosing my medical procedures which is a violation of the HIPPA Law. I have requsted Equifx to disclose what right the companies have under the fair credit and billing act to collection. I have not heard back. On XX/XX/2015, I contacted the credit bureaus to request a full validation of these accounts the person was rude and not helpful so I decided to file a complaint with CFPB. I have no knowledge of these accounts. ( XXXX XXXX Opened XXXX {$74.00} ) and XXXX XXXX XXXX Opened XXXX {$240.00} ) I wish to see the original sources of the information reported including, but not limited to, the original contract or service agreement with my signature. Based on my research these accounts have been sold to 3rd party collection at a much lower rate. I need to see this contract too. If you cant provide me with this information, please remove the accounts immediately as neither your agency nor I can verify that they are reported accurately. Please do not send back to me as its Factual or Updated. This is not proper in the investigative process. Please provide the name and phone number to person your bureau has spoken with. Based on the FCRA and FTC Law, all information must be accurate, no errors and verifiable. Please do what is necessary to validate these accounts in a timely manner.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: CT
Product: Credit card
Issue: Transaction issue

Complaint:
On XXXX at approximately XXXX PM I received an email from American Express, asking me to confirm I changed my email address. After reading the email I immediately called American Express to explain I did not change my email address and that it appears to be suspicious activity. After having me on the phone for about XXXX minutes they reviewed the recent transactions with me. The only XXXX I disputed was the transaction in the amount of {$900.00}, which appeared to be either a e-check or wire transfer written to someone 's personal name. I 'm 100 % sure I did not authorize this transaction and do not even know who the individual is. 

As we were reviewing the account I noticed the information they had on file was not the information I entered when originally setting up my account. My email, pin, and even my security question was all changed. They then had me reset everything back. I asked if they should just send me a new card and or at least change my account number. They said that would not be necessary. 

They informed me that the dispute would take up to 10 business days. After terminating the call with them I then received a voicemail ( on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX ) confirming the call and giving me my confirmation number which is XXXX and a number to call if needed which was XXXX. I still have the voicemail on my phone. 

Today on XX/XX/XXXX I received an email from American Express stating my dispute was declined and they have determined no error occurred. I will attached copies of the emails mentioned. 

I 'm not sure how they can come up with the conclusion that no error occurred, when I 'm clearly stating I did not make or authorize this transaction. If someone can change an email address then later change their pin, and personal security question, then be allowed to transfer money to someone, that is clearly a lapse of security on American Express. 

After receiving the email stating my dispute was declined I called XXXX, and spoke to XXXX at XXXX who then transferred me to Account Protection Services to someone named XXXX XXXX I went through explaining the whole process with XXXX only to be told she could not help because she did n't have the information they used to determine how their decision was made. She said I would have to write them to get more detail. 

This whole process is interfering with my ability to pay my mortgage and bills. It 's not fair for an institution as large as American Express to simply state an invalid charge was valid and tell the consumer, we ca n't help you. 

Any help you can provide to expedite this process would be greatly appreciated. I tried to be proactive in reaching out to American Express as soon as I received the email stating my email was changed. 

Again I did not change my information or make the charge of {$900.00} Thank you for your help.

Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Auto
Issue: Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not mine

Complaint:
My ex husband purchased a boat, but it was done as a joint loan acount in XXXX when we were still married. We divorced in XX/XX/XXXX and divorce papers stipulate ex husband was keeping the boat and the loan attached to it. I moved and had no possession of or contact with the boat again. However, his credit was not good enough and he was unable to ever refinance it into his name and remove my name from the loan. He then stopped paying on the boat loan with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and had the boat repossessed by them. They sold the boat to someone else but at a loss over how much the exhusband still owed. They then listed the amount of their loss on my credit report as a derogatory account and amount still owed them. The ex husband then filed bankruptcy and had it removed/discharged from his record. However, they then sent ME to collections for their lost money ( over a boat I never had ). 

The collections information is below, States Recovery from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I received a letter from States Recovery and I sent them in copies of my divorce papers showing the debt did not belong to me, requesting it get removed. However it has remained on my credit report. Initially it was {$18000.00}. A few months ago they increased it to {$23000.00}, not sure why. I do not believe in bankruptcy and do not want a bankruptcy on my record. I do not want to have to file bankruptcy over a collection item that clearly does not belong to me.They repossessed the boat and got their property back. They discharged the debt in court when the Ex filed bankruptcy on it. There is absolutely no reason their " loss '' should still be causing me credit problems 8 years later.

Also on account XXXX : XXXX XXXX the last activity is inaccurate and remarks is inaccurate and months reviewed is inaccurate and payment history is inaccurate. This is grounds for removal they also violated my rights under 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States I have the right to privacy.

15 U.S.C 1681 section 604 A Section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions 15 U.S.C 1681e - Compliance procedures ( b ) Accuracy of Report Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates.

That stated my account was verified but how is that possible if they did not do a proper investigation according to the law. Also every piece of information on these accounts are not still reporting 100 % accurate. And according to the FCRA 15 USC 1681 everything has to be 100 % accurate. I have the credit report showing the inaccuracies.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: FL
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint:
With my BestBuy Citi Credit Card ending ****, I have made a purchase at a BestBuy store on XX/XX/2021 for {$800.00} to be paid in 24 monthly installments with no interest or fees. My next statement in XXXX included the whole amount, but I didn't suspect anything wrong as it was the true amount I owed, and it showed in my promotional purchases section of my statement. However, the total amount was not spread over equal payments, and somehow, I paid not all but most of this purchase along with the remaining expenses on my account for the period. 

The total statement balance of {$970.00}, including the purchase in dispute, was paid on XX/XX/2021, because I had my instructions to make full statement balances on due date. On the other hand, I still owe {$160.00} on promotional balances, which should be only 1 ( one ) installment less than the total purchase, around $ XXXX I contacted various customer service representatives, and until the last one, they all argued the system withdrew all the money owed from expenses because I had Full Statement Balance pay instructions, and Citicards didnt have an option to separate and calculate installment payments from the rest of the balance, which sounded meaningless. Multiple CS representatives told me that I should calculate how much I wanted to pay on each month and put that into payments or change my monthly payment instructions to Minimum Payment, which would create interest charges on my expenses outside the Best Buy promotional purchase in dispute. 

Getting into an installment pay plan and then having required to calculate your next payment each term is not making sense, and there is obviously a mistake here that customer service doesnt want to understand. Unfortunately, there is no available authority fully comprehensive at BestBuy or Citibank to reach out for the dispute, so I have no other option to report this promotional delusion on all levels of complaint departments.
