Complaint:
In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting act. The List of accounts below has violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 USC 1681. 
I told the XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax to reinvestigate these accounts : Account name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, Account name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, Account name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
However, they stated everything was complete and accurate. But how is that possible if the open date, date of last activity and much more is incorrect.

According to 15 USC 1681 ( 5 ) they are suppose to modify accounts that isn't reporting correctly.

Complaint:
A collection account listed under XXXX in the amount of {$310.00} is currently on credit report. I have no knowledge of such debt owed. My dispute is based on the fact that I have never received a legally required debt validation notice as required by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) Section 809, 15 U.S.C. 1692g. The FDCPA mandates that within five days of the initial communication with a consumer regarding a debt, a debt collector must send a written notice that includes : The amount of the debt.

The name of the creditor to whom the debt is owed. 
A statement that the consumer has 30 days to dispute the debt 's validity in writing. 
A statement that, upon receiving a written dispute, the debt collector will obtain and provide verification of the debt. 
A statement that, if the consumer requests the name and address of the original creditor, the debt collector will provide that information upon request. 

I wish to inform you that I have not received such a debt validation notice via mail or electronically from the collection company or any other entity. As a consumer, I have the right to request and receive this information to verify the validity of the debt in question.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2022 EDD issued me {$3400.00}. Unfortunately, I did not know that I received this money due to an ongoing legal situation that I have with my personal belongings including purse, id, and credit cards being locked up and taken in a housing residence scam. I contacted Bank of America to let them know that I have no access to the card and because of the ongoing issue with XXXX Police Department and myself. They would not take a police report even after speaking with the Watch Commander. Due to the sensitivity of the case involving law enforcement I can not go into great detail. Card company sent pictures of someone at the ATM withdrawing money off of my card and it is not me. I have no idea who that person is but Bank of America closed my investigation I guess based upon the fact that they had some photos. Closed the investigation due to this and now I am homeless and without money and food. I am unable to discuss my issues with local law enforcement due to the ongoing legal battle. Bank of America prepaid processing will not even return my phonecalls. They refunded partial money thst was involved in the claim but did not refund ALL monies.
