Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Complaint:
I sent letters out to all 3 credit bureaus regarding items on my credit report that are not accurate which is a FCRA violation and you must abide by the law. All information I have provided in my letters is true and accurate to my knowledge. I am the one sending the letters and filing this complaint with no help from a credit repair or 3rd party. I know this is a violation of my rights due to the bureaus not providing a notice of dispute and for failure to communicate to me that I disputed stuff on my credit. I just want these accounts to be removed from my credit report immediately or I will take legal action and hire a lawyer. I am trying to purchase a home soon and these negative items are holding my score back.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
I am writing to dispute the inaccurate information on my credit report related to an account with XXXX, account number XXXX. According to the information provided by your agency, the account has been charged off and sent to collections, and also shows as 120 days past due. However, this information is inaccurate. 

As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 607 ( b ), credit reporting agencies are required to provide accurate and complete information in credit reports. Inaccurate information on my credit report has negatively impacted my ability to obtain credit and loans, as well as other basic necessities.

Furthermore, 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 requires furnishers of information to provide accurate information to consumer reporting agencies. Reporting a charge off and collection account for an amount that has been claimed as income on my taxes is a violation of this law. 

Therefore, I am requesting that you investigate and correct the inaccurate information on my credit report regarding the XXXX account in question. I also request that you provide me with an updated credit report reflecting the removal of this account within 30 days. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.

Complaint:
Hello, On XX/XX/2023 Transunion reported that my account with XXXX was 30 days late and as a result it has tanked my credit score considerably and some other creditors are now lowering or closing my other credit account. This is also messing with my utilization. 

I have disputed this information with Transunion ( which has now spread to the other bureaus XXXX and XXXX ) 6 different times and even confirmed with XXXX and provided documents to Transunion from XXXX and letters that both My husband ( who is a joint owner on the XXXX account ) and I have written and submitted. 

Even after XXXX has confirmed and stated they have no late payments in their system and not sure why Transunion has reported this it is still incorrect and my credit score has not been updated to reflect this correction which is effecting my ability to make any large purchase at this time. 

It seems Transunion is the credit bureau that is mostly inaccurate and doesn't correct errors promptly. 

Below are all of the disputes I have submitted with Transunion and adding another one today : Date Submitted Date Completed XX/XX/2023 XX/XX/2023 XX/XX/2023 XX/XX/2023 XX/XX/2023 XX/XX/2023 XX/XX/2023 XX/XX/2023 XX/XX/2023 XX/XX/2023 XX/XX/2023 XX/XX/2023

Sub-issue: Problem with customer service

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2022, I received a {$8000.00} credit to my Bank of America Cash Rewards general purpose credit card account due to a returned purchase. 

I immediately contacted BofA customer service and requested that they refund the credit balance to my BofA checking account so that I could use the {$8000.00} for other expenses. 

They promised me that I would receive my refund in 7-14 business days. 

However, as of XX/XX/2022, 48 days later, I have still not received my credit balance refund. 

I have contacted them 3 times about the same matter. 

I believe that BofA has been highly delinquent in addressing this credit balance refund request and must be held accountable for not returning money to a customer in a timely manner. This is a substantial amount of money and not returning it quickly could cause financial harm.

Complaint:
On XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX XXXX data breach as well as XXXX XXXX XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

State: WA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
I had XXXX XXXX through XXXX Insurance in 2019. The XXXX XXXX office couldn't collect for the appointments through XXXX XXXXXXXX and so they are coming after me. I was assured by my insurance case manager that I do not owe them anything. They applied for more appointments, were given partial payments, and are just trying to claim the outstanding amount from me. 

I have already spoken to them, and had XXXX  XXXX XXXX or XXXX XXXX send a letter to them explaining that, as XXXX patients, I don't owe a XXXX to them. 

But they have now sent me a letter for debt collection. This is coupled further by the fact that the couple that own the XXXX business also own the debt collection agency. 

Can you please either confer with XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX  case manager ) on XXXX XXXX XXXX or email her at XXXX to get a better explanation. I have never been involved in debt collection in my life and this XXXX  office was very disconcerting in their practices to aggressively push clients to book appointments. The amount is very negligible - and it's strange that they would push for {$79.00} to be collected, especially after my case manager made it clear to them that I didn't owe this money.
