Complaint:
I sent this letter XX/XX/XXXX to all the 3 Major Credit Bureaus for investigation on inaccurate data on my credit report. I pointed all the incorrect information from Date of Last Activity, High Balance amount, last payment date etc. all different from each credit bureau. This is impacting me greatly because it is keeping me from making major purchases because of the inaccurate information on my credit file. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX To Whom This May Concern After recently reviewing my credit report I noticed several inconsistencies regarding account ( XXXX/ Acct # XXXX ) on the date of the last activity section. XXXX is reporting a date of last activity XXXX, Experian is reporting a date of last activity XXXX and XXXX is reporting a date of last activity of XXXX. These accounts appear to be furnished by the same creditor so why is all the provided data different? It is your duty to ensure that all information reported is consistent and most importantly accurate and you have failed to do so. Please DELETE this erroneous item immediately.

So I wrote the dispute letters asking them to carefully verify those accounts which are XXXX Finace XXXX XXXX XXXX service and I have been proof I sent them dispute letter through certified mail. Asking them provide me proof such as a sign contract with my signature but Equifax failed to do that so XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from them stating they verify those account are accurate and they are mines they didnt send me any proof no documentations Equifax information Service have ignored my request to provided me with the documents that they have in they files that was used to verify the disputed accounts which means that they have NOT verified or you can not verify any of these accounts and under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to promptly DELETE all information which can not be verified. 

The law is very clear as to the Civil liability and the remedy available to me for negligent noncomplia eral Law.

Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Complaint:
On the morning of Tuesday XX/XX/2022 I attempted to check rates via what was advertised as a soft credit pull with XXXX home mortgage. There was an issue with the soft pull so I telephoned the help line and asked to reset the process so that I could try again online after I lifted a lock on one of my reports. The customer service person looked at the information and after a few minutes said he could look at the rates I requested and go over them with me. Unbeknownst to me he must have done a hard credit pull which is now showing up in my credit report. 

I believe that this is unfair and a bit dishonest as they mention several times that the initial credit pull is soft and would not affect my credit. I would never have requested a hard pull as we are in the process of closing on a home and this sort of inquiry could affect my underwriting process.

Product: Bank account or service
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Deposits and withdrawals

Complaint:
I processed a wire using HSBC online banking, on XXXX XXXX, 2016, in the amount of XXXX. The beneficiary of this wire was XXXX XXXX. The payment was for a flight to XXXX that was taking place on XXXX XXXX. The funds were deducted from my account, but on XXXX XXXX, XXXX informed me that they had not yet received the wire transfer. I called HSBC immediately and learned that the wire was being held due to them needing more information. I was told that I would need to reach out to my account manager, XXXX XXXX, who is based at the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX branch. Since this payment was urgent and I was unable to reach XXXX XXXX, I had the wire processed from another account at a different bank. This payment went through immediately. When was finally able to reach XXXX XXXX, I requested that he have the funds returned to me, as I had already made the payment from another bank. He told me that he would let the wire department know not to process the wire and to refund my account. He informed me that it could take up 3 days to receive the funds. 

After 3 days, my account had still not been credited. I reached out to XXXX XXXX, who in turn sent me an email with the branch manager, XXXX XXXX, asking me several personal questions about a flight that had already taken place. I did not understand why they would need to ask questions about a wire that I was no longer sending. I explained that I only want my money back, but after several emails back and forth, with XXXX purposely avoiding my questions, I answered the questions presented, since XXXX insisted that this would be the only way for me to get my money back. That was on XXXX XXXX. It is now XXXX XXXX, and my account has still not been credited. 

XXXX emailed me today, stating that my funds will be " blocked and reported to XXXX. '' How is it that a bank can do this? I do not want the wire to be processed, I have already taken the flight and returned. I only want my funds put back into my account. This is theft and a bank should not be able to get away with this.

Complaint:
I am at the end of my short sale on my home. It is owned by XXXX but is a XXXX Loan, it was submitted through XXXX and has been approved. I have several other liens on the property and although multiple attempts have been made and it has been made clear that this is a XXXX loan and they are not giving anything to the Judgement liens on the property, I and the agent along with the real estate broker have been able to put some money together and pay some of the judgements in an attempt to settle for less then the original amount, however, XXXX Midland Funding or XXXX is not willing to take a penny less then the full amount plus accruing interest. The XXXX position is not getting the full amount, hence the need for a short sale, traditionally they dictate the jr lien payoffs. I do n't know what else to do to get this passed through and my agent has run into a dead end. We have to close the sale by XXXX XXXX and I am out of options.

I have also requested to have my billing cycle changed from quarterly to monthly and reduce my payment amount based on my financial obligations to other student loans, instead of processing my request they put me into forbearance/deferment and when I inquired what I had to do successful change billing cycle/payment amount they referred me to the same form that resulted in the forberance/deferment status. I find them very difficult to communicate with and the rare communication I do receive feels like they 're just trying to push me off to either " call the credit bureau '' or " that 's not my department, call this number.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: OH
Product: Credit card
Issue: Privacy

Complaint:
My fiance and I both have individual credit card accounts with Synchrony Bank, along with one joint account ( account is in both our names ). I received notification from Synchrony that they had added two of my individual accounts ( accounts in my name only ) to my fiance 's online profile. This means that he has access not only to his individual Synchrony accounts and our joint account, but also to the account information for credit cards in my name only. Synchrony should NOT have exposed my personal information from my 2 individual accounts to him ; he did not have those account numbers nor my social security number, and did nothing to facilitate those accounts being made available to him. This is unacceptable and a mis-management of my personal information. I spent about an hour on the phone with Synchrony, explaining the issue to 3 different people. No one took ownership of the issue ; instead, they told me " it could n't happen '' ( in spite of the emails I received from them and confirmation from my fiance that those accounts were displayed to him as being able to add to his profile ) ; they also told me he could just delete from his online profile, if he did n't want to see my accounts. They are OBVIOUSLY missing the point and refusing to hear that they have violated my privacy by sharing personal/private individual account information with someone who is not listed as joint cardholder or even an authorized user on the accounts. I have no idea if this issue only occurs in scenarios where people share a joint account through Synchrony and also have individual accounts, or, if there is an even larger bug in their system where they are exposing my account information to people I do n't even know. Synchrony must be able to discern which accounts are appropriate to show an individual. Only the joint accounts should be exposed, along with only the individual accounts belonging to that person, and NOT the unrelated individual accounts belonging to the other joint cardholder. Synchrony needs to take greater responsibility in handling the private data of its customers, and most certainly needs to train their customer and fraud support teams to listen to and act on customer complaints when a privacy violation has occurred.
