Complaint:
On XX/XX/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 OPM data breach as well as Equifax 's 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.

Complaint:
Re : Experian Credit File for XXXX XXXX XXXX I paid off a car loan from XXXX on XXXX XX/XX/2023. When the loan was paid in full, Experian decreased my FICO score by XXXX pts. This decrease also changed my FICO score from " Very Good '' to " Good ''. My XXXX and XXXX accounts both increased when this account was paid in full. From that point and currently, my Experian FICO score is XXXX pts below the two other credit reporting services. 

It appears this was a mistake in either reporting or calculation of my credit score and/or the application to my FICO score when a loan was paid in full, and/or how the " paid in full '' loan was reported or applied to my Experian FICO score. 

There is a large difference in a Good vs. Very Good credit score. I assume the algorithms are similar and should not have this much difference. I would appreciate if someone could review this transaction and results and application to my FICO score.

Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: FHA mortgage
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Complaint:
Was accepted for a Covid deferral back in late XXXX. 
Since early XXXX I Went to get off it and refinance the deferral? I started making payments again. I signed the contract and a couple of days later was contacted by the mortgage company as to a problem with a secondary XXXX from the USDA on my primary that hadv to do with my wife 's separate farm property which my mortgage company already had a subordination agreement from previously. They requested a new subordination agreement from them. Since the farm was up for sale, I went back and forth with everyone about this until the farm was actually sold in XXXX of XXXX. Turns out he USDA filed the lien releases on the farm but not on my primary residence. I received the secondary lien releases for my primary property and filed them in XXXX of this year. Since then I've gone back and forth with the mortgage company about a single equipment lien that they admit they have but because it doesn't have a certain number on it. I've traveled to the county courthouse 5 times and was assured the lien in question was discharged.

Still a problem. I applied to the mortgage company to have the USDA Farm loan officer speak as a third party but they denied it. ( He also spoke with the courthouse previously to assure the lien was discharged ) I told them I would complain to the Congressional office and the next day I received notice it was cleared up, i called and to verify that it was? I received a a new contract ( at almost twice the interest rate then when i started this whole process? which I signed and sent back. 
Only to receive a call again about the title problem. 
And here we are again.

Complaint:
Per the FCRA, I am a federally protected consumer. According to the law, consumer reporting agencies are to exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. XXXX and Experian are classified as consumer reporting agency, and I by definition am the Consumer. Pursuant to 15 U.S Code 6801, it is the policy of Congress that each financial institution has an affirmative and continuing obligation to respect the privacy of its customers and to protect the security and confidentiality of those customers nonpublic personal information. XXXX XXXX per 15 U.S Code 6801 is defined as a financial institution ; of which I am sure the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency [ would ] consider any information that this institution engaged in illegal credit practices before the end of the institutions next performance evaluation. XXXX XXXX is in violation of 15 U.S Code 1681a ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ). XXXX XXXX is under the regulation of many laws and as previously mentioned one of those is the FCRA, which states the term consumer report DOES NOT INCLUDE any report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. Pursuant to 15 U. S Code 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ) the publishing of any adverse item of information should not be on any consumer report. It clearly states except as authorized under subsection ( b ), no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information. Any other adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes which antedates the report by more than seven years. This is a violation as they are reporting these items without my permission. 15 U.S Code 1681e states every consumer reporting agency shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to avoid violation of section 1681c of this title and to limit the furnishing of consumer reports to the purposes listed under section 1681b of this title.

It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA, you are required by law to remove & block any items which are found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please block/remove these files.
