Complaint:
I am writing to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to help me remove the Duplicate Tradeline that has been reported from Lending Club Bank to my credit file on XXXX. I have reached out to Lending Club Bank and XXXX regarding the Duplicate TradelinXXXX in my credit file by telephone and by filing disputes. Received a letter from XXXX stating that XXXX XXXX Bank sent a certification of this Duplicate Trade line account and it states that this account belongs to me reported on XX/XX/XXXX, which was opened up on XX/XX/XXXX. Which is not correct ( Please see Attachment of Letter Received from XXXX ). This makes the second time a Duplicate Tradeline has been added to my credit file with XXXX XXXX Bank XXXX XXXX. The first time this happened was on XX/XX/XXXX, when a duplicate trade line was added to my credit file from XXXX XXXXb Bank on XXXX. This took on a domino effect to my XXXX and XXXX credit report in which I lost points off my credit score due to this error and never received my points back. Since then it had been corrected but took months to correct the matter. With the Duplicate Tradeline being reported on my credit reports, it has affected my credit score which makes it hard to get more credit due to unitization being too high due to the inaccurate information thats being reported. I have filed disputes regarding the inaccurate reporting information in my credit file with Lending Club on balance owned and last date of payments, each time the results has come back stating that the data was updated and is completed. Even when you send in payment verification and last date of payment information. The information is still not updated and corrected! I have inquired with XXXX XXXX Bank regarding how account information is been reported to XXXX, they stated payment information is sent every 30 days but it is the XXXX credit bureaus that take up to 60-90 days before they actually update my credit file. When reporting is done, the information is not correct, and it looks like you are three ( XXXX ) months behind on your loan payments which affects your credit score. The amount of what you own and the last date of payment is not correct because of how the system is set up. To my understanding credit bureaus are to report every 30 days. But when it comes to reporting from Lending Club Bank and XXXX the reporting has not been done correctly, and something needs to be done regarding this matter. According to the system, our credit is our worth, it determines who gives you credit and how much interest you pay on that money that you borrow. This has become a systematic problem with inaccurate information that is being reported by financial institutions and credit bureaus. I feel like certain zip codes are been targeted due to systemic and institutional racism so that we have to continue to pay high interest on the money we borrow from financial intuitions by keeping our credit score low. I feel that XXXXmprovements need to be made on how financial intuitions and credit bureaus are reporting. I am extremely appalled that this has happened a second time within my credit file a XXXXuplicate Tradeline with Lending Club Bank has been reported to XXXX. Please see the attachments of the original loan documents and the duplicate TradXXXX line loan documents that have been reported to XXXX for Lending Club Bank.
