Company: SUNTRUST BANKS, INC.
State: GA
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Opening an account
Sub-issue: Account opened as a result of fraud

Complaint:
Suntrust Bank opened several fraudulent accounts in my name by someone who stole my identity. I have made Suntrust bank aware that these accounts were opened as a result of fraud, but they have done nothing to resolve this matter. They are reporting to XXXX XXXX XXXX agency that I have had derogatory accounts with them, when I in fact have never had any accounts with Suntrust Bank. I was the victim of identity theft in 2010 and every since then I have had multiple bank accounts, credit card accounts, and other accounts established in my name by the person who stole my information. I have contacted Suntrust bank multiple times and made them aware of this situation but they have done absolutely nothing to resolve this. They continue to ignore my requests to remove these fraudulent accounts out of my name, and continue to defame my character by reporting this fraudulent information to XXXX XXXX XXXX when they know and have been told in writing, and by phone that these accounts are fraudulent.
XXXX XXXX has also been made aware that these two accounts were fraudulent but they have done nothing to resolve this matter either. They tell me to contact Suntrust Bank, and I have done that countless times, but it is them that is reporting this fraudulent information to other creditors that is causing me not to be able to open accounts in my name. XXXX XXXX XXXX has informed me that they will not stop disseminating this fraudulent information unless Suntrust Bank tells them not to.
Both Suntrust Bank and XXXX XXXX are complicit in defaming my character and ruining my ability to obtain banking products in my name due to these fraudulent accounts that were opened in my name with out my knowledge or permission. They have both been informed of this matter and neither of them have been willing to assist me in removing this fraudulent information from my names and this constitutes a violation of the laws that govern credit reporting.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
In XXXX 2017 I was alerted by one of my credit monitoring programs that some new information had been added to my credit reports. When I logged onto the website, it showed that a collection account had been added by a company named XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$1800.00}. I immediately disputed this with all 3 credit buearu 's online and both XXXX and XXXX  deleted the account. Experian claimed they had verified the account. I spoke to customer service and asked them to provide me with documentation on how they verified the account according to FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 7 ), which is used for such a request, states : " A consumer reporting agency shall provide to a consumer a description referred to in paragraph ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ) by not later than 15 days after receiving a request from the consumer for that description. ". The representative stated that there was no law and they did not have to provide me with anything but he would enter in another dispute. The second dispute came back as being able to verify the account again. I contacted Experian and spoke to a representative and informed her of the situation and she agreed to enter another dispute and gave me the website address to upload documents to prove I paid the debt. I did this and waited. After a week or so, I was sent a letter stating the debt again had been verified and they will not delete the account. After that, I filed a complaint with the BBB and a representative from Experian named XXXX XXXX sent me a letter stating she that the account in question did not show on my credit report and she would be investigating the matter further. I tried contacting XXXX XXXX multiple times and she does not answer the telephone and I have left numerous messages. I have provided proof that this debt was paid in full ( I actually overpaid ) via copy of my grandmother 's credit card statement and Experian refuses to delete this account from my credit report. I have been denied credit based on this and my next step is to file a small claims action in order to get Experian to do the right thing and fix their mistake.

Complaint:
In XX/XX/2021 I spoke with numerous representatives w/ Navy Federal Credit Union in regards to a credit account. I was seeking the debt validation letter from the company. They told me they did not have that, i proceeded to ask for the original instrument of indebtedness and the young lady expressed to me that they didn't have it because the alleged " contract '' was done electronically. I since have not spoken to them but they have continued to harass and use abusive practices against me through interstate commerce in regards to a debt that has not been validated. I have attached documents to show evidence of these claims, i also enclosed in those documents a debt validation letter to assure the company gets it.

Company: Upstart Holdings, Inc.
State: CA

Sub-product: Installment loan
Issue: Charged fees or interest you didn't expect

Complaint:
I applied and was approved for a loan through XXXXpstart. Pursuant to 15 USC 1692e ( 11 ) Upstart did not communicate in the initial oral or written communication that this was an attempt to collect a debt. Nor that any information would be used in connection with collection of a debt. 

Also pursuant to 15 USC 1692g ( a ), I never received a letter to validate such debt. 

Upstart has continued to violate my consumer rights laws but practicing unfair debt collection practices. They have sent statements that include predatory lending language by giving me deadlines in which I must make payments. 

On XX/XX/21 I received a notice for payment which violates my federal rights. 

In response, I sent over a debt validation letter requesting for Upstart to validate the debts stated, an affidavit of truth which reported the violation of my federal laws, 1 exhibit of violations, and an invoice for the number of violations found in each statement.

Sub-issue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Complaint:
XX/XX/XXXX To whom it may concern, My name is XXXX XXXX. I am writing this email due to some unpleasant activities following a visit to XXXX XXXX XXXX back on XX/XX/XXXX. I came in that XXXX  morning for a recall repair on my air bag for my XXXX XXXX XXXX  ( Which I am still currently driving ) While I was waiting on my repair, a young man ( sales professional ) XXXX XXXX showed me some of their cars on the lot, asked me why I came in today etc. Then we test drove a XXXX XXXX During this period my vehicle wasn't done yet with the airbag repair. After test driving the XXXX XXXX, XXXX, ran up some numbers and was basically trying to get me to get me to walk out with a new car, payment plan etc. I said no, explained that I had a lot going on and that this would not be a smart decision for me right now and that I would I'm just going to wait till my car is ready and go home. 

After, that I had a few representatives come in and try to convince me or " earn my business '' as they put it. The Manager, supervisor, you name it. Outside of XXXX, I had to have had three to four more men come to the same desk trying to offer different deals to earn my business ; and each time I said no. That XXXX I ended up driving my car the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I did not purchase a new car, there was no trade in, or any contract or consent given to process or complete anything else. 

Unfortunately, a while later I had received some letters in the mail from two separate lenders informing me that they denied my request for a loan. In fact, the letter stated that the loan requested was for {$26000.00} ( from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). I was completely shocked that I ended up checking my XXXX and Experian account and I noticed that there were several other hard inquiries dated back form XX/XX/XXXX the same day I went in for my recall repair, which is absurd because I said no to every sales man that came before me and I did not give consent or request any loan for {$26.00}, XXXX from XXXX XXXX, this is when I knew I had to call the credit bureau and take action. This was not activity I approved of nor gave consent to, this is fraudulent activity. 

Now, unfortunately I'm going through the process of mailing letters to the credit bureaus to clean up this mess that I did not even do. I'm also considering getting my attorney involved because this is the most insane and unprofessional thing I've seen, and to be honest my respect for this XXXX location has gone down. This is a very unpleasant circumstance to be dealing with right now. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
