Complaint:
I am writing to submit a formal complaint regarding the inaccurate information on my credit report, which I previously reported to Equifax on XX/XX/XXXX. Despite my initial contact, Equifax has not responded to address the following issues. Please assist me in resolving these discrepancies and ensuring compliance with federal law. 

( XXXX XXXX, Date Opened : XXXX XXXX, XXXX I disagree with the reported balance of {$420.00} for the XXXX XXXX account as I recall the amount being lower. I request Equifax to delete the information regarding the past due amount, as this account is closed and charged-off. To safeguard the accuracy of my credit score, I urge Equifax to mark this account as disputed. ) ( XXXX, Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX, The reported balance of {$3700.00} for the XXXX account is incorrect and has caused significant harm to my credit reputation. I remember the balance being lower. I request Equifax to review and revise the past due information since it is inaccurate to present a past due amount for a closed and charged-off account. This erroneous reporting has likely contributed to a decline in my credit score. Consequently, I need to reach an agreement with my creditor to rectify the incorrect data. I ask Equifax to mark this account as disputed to prevent further negative impact on my credit score. ) ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, Date Opened : XXXX XXXX, XXXX, The information presented on the XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX account requires investigation. While I am aware that the original creditor is XXXXXXXX XXXX, I have not received any communication from XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX. The reported balance of {$520.00} is inflated and inaccurate. I do not recognize this amount, and I believe I owe a lower balance. Due to these inaccuracies, I dispute the entire account and insist that Equifax verify the following dates : Date Opened and Date of First Delinquency. ) ( XXXX XXXX, Date Opened : XXXX XXXX, XXXX, The reported balance of {$10000.00} for the XXXX XXXX account is incorrect and has caused significant harm to my credit reputation. The balance provided does not correspond to the lower amount that I recall. I request Equifax to review and revise the past due information, as it is inaccurate to present a past due amount for a closed and charged-off account. This erroneous reporting has likely contributed to a decline in my credit score. Consequently, I need to reach an agreement with my creditor to rectify the incorrect data. I ask Equifax to mark this account as disputed to prevent further negative impact on my credit score. )

Complaint:
I do not have an account with COMENITYCAPITAL/XXXX I had one years ago. I do not have one now and never tried to get another one after I closed my account in good standing with them. My identity was stolen in 2022 in the process of me moving. My photo ID 's, social security cards and much more went missing. I have sent over numerous letters to this creditor along with police reports and report numbers and they refuse to remove the inquiry. I have a copy of the report slip before the numbers generated. The report number is XXXX. I live in NYC where they do not give out paper reports and the number should be sufficient enough. This inquiry was not me and I would like it removed off of my report ASAP.

My wife and I have a mortgage through PHH. Over the past five years we have watched our payment move up from around XXXX to around XXXX. Yesterday we received a bill for a payment of around XXXX. After calling the mortgage company their explanation was that our home insurance had increased from around XXXX annually to over XXXX. They also us claims dealing with increased taxes and expected increase in escrow. Is this legal? I felt our contract was a 'contract ' and not a liquid form. There is no way we are able to make these types of payments. I did call my insurance provider and found that because we had wind damage claims that XXXX XXXX had increased our insurance to that claimed amount of over XXXX. My wife and I are both retired. Could you please help. thank you.
