Reporting company used your report improperly
Equifax has mishandled my information, did n't notify me ( I found out via social media and had to go to their poorly made response site to check for myself ), and now has cost me several hours, some money ( to freeze my credit with 4 bureaus and XXXX XXXX ) and will continue consuming my time and money to deal with paying for and unfreezing reports as necessary in the future. This is an undue burden from a company I have never chosen to do business with - they are a vendor of my vendors/creditors. Please take prompt and decisive action to ensure I am compensated for their negligence and that something like this does not occur again.
Debt is not mine
I do a payment plan with the collection fot the credit card of citibank and then when i paid for one year they want the all amount and in this time i not have the all money to paid. I opened the account in XXXX not in to XXXX. According by law it 7 years in the credit record and i past the 7 years. The same think of bank i moving to XXXX and i closed the accoubt by me.
Problem with fees
My son use our citibank credit card for two transactions, one for {$14.00} and one for {$18.00} or a total of {$32.00}. Citibank charged a {$20.00} fee and a {$0.00} interest resulting in {$20.00} on {$32.00}. That's a 62 % interest rate for a month or 33,676 % interest rate annually. I can'be believe there are no laws against this or required warnings. I don't expect any action, but would like to register the complain so perhaps it comes to the attention of someone that this kind of usury really should be outlawed.
Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
I did not receive any notice of this debt showing on my credit report until I seen my credit drop due to this unrecognized debt occurring on my credit report. I had no prior knowledge I had owed debt.

This fraudulent account was removed from my XXXX account last year in 2018 and now has been reinserted back to my credit file. I am a victim of identity theft and this account is supposed to be blocked from my credit file.
Problem getting your free annual credit report
We have not been able to get the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXt form EQUIFAX, and this has been the case for almost an entire year. As well, my wife is not able to get the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXrom EQUIFAX with her BAN not being in place for as long as mine. We've also have not been able to register for the paid and direct access to our Equifax credit reports using Equifax.com. They have banned both my wife and myself from getting FREE and downloadable reports, but instead links us to Equifax site that ask us to provide documentation of various forms of ID and they will send us the reports. This request from them is not going to happen, because our sole purpose to to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is to make sure we are getting the SAME report that the banks and lenders get when they pull credit. The Myequifax.com that they have restricted us to use for our credit reports DO NOT contain the same data thaXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX contain, nor does Myequifax.com allow the same access that Equifax.com allows. So that is what we have been opening multiple CFPB complaints asking to have the restrictions removed from our Equifax credit access and reporting. Please see listed previous complaints on this ( XXXX -- XXXX -- XXXX -- XXXX XXXX Equifax has been consistent in keeping the restrictions for the both of us in place, and has chosen instead to indicate that they have contacted the provider, as if they need permission from another company to allow us full access to the same credit reporting they allow the banks and lenders access to. The request to register as a couple is based on their family plan paid access. I was once registered to the Equifax.com and was booted off and told that I had to use to Myequifax.com and that was the case for all consumers. And was also told that only the businesses were allowed to use the Equifax.com to late find out that was not true. Why is Equifax keeping us from seeing what is being reported to the banks and lenders but instead has only allowed us access to myequifax.com only and has also blocked us from receiving the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.?
Investigation took more than 30 days
sent in a few disputes on the XXXX of XXXX and have yet to receive any resolution from Equifax and XXXX XXXX
Can't get other flexible options for repaying your loan
I requested a XXXX XXXX request for forgiveness of my loan in XX/XX/XXXX. It was not approved until XX/XX/XXXX, in which they are now today, XX/XX/XXXX telling me that they mailed a letter requesting additional information. I asked for the history of the loan to verify that I had 3 loans with them. Because to my knowledge, I only had one consolidated loan. The servicer at XXXX stated I have a total of 3 loans 2 with them but one with XXXX from the years of XXXX and XXXX. I requested history to confirm. They stated they did not have anything like that. I asked for the supervisor who in turn gave me as of XX/XX/XXXX, the original balance that they were given was {$5600.00} for one loan and the unsubsidized part B of {$5900.00} was the 2nd loan. Which totals {$11000.00}, which is on my report as well. The loans are the same loans being report 3 times differently on my report. I am disputing the validity of the actual amount and the handling of this loan with this company. I would like a thorough review. Because this is harming my chances to obtain housing since I have been displaced without work since my injuries.
Debt is not yours
I began receiving calls from a company claiming to be debt collectors looking for someone who is not me. I have told them several times that they have the wrong person, and I have blocked them but they are still harassing me on a daily basis starting at XXXX XXXX and continuing throughout the day.
Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
I discovered that some of the information on my credit report was incorrect when I reviewed it. Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) require the 3 credit bureaus to validate these accounts ( A ). It is not permissible to fail to validate these reporting accounts as unverified information without providing any proof within the time frame specified by law. My credit report includes the following erroneous information that needs to be investigated and deleted : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance : {$0.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$4800.00}

Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Problem with personal statement of dispute
I mailed letters to both XXXX and Equifax on XX/XX/2021 disputing the XXXX XXXX account for the second time. They have been unable to validate the account or provide me with the necessary documentation. XXXX has removed this account from my profile as a result of the inability to validate it. XXXX has previously removed it and has since relisted it without notifying me properly. Additionally, this account has now become part of a Multistate Settlement providing relief to accounts with this. company during the time period the account is listed for. I have provided both bureaus with documentation of this settlement and the relief they've already sent. Still, I have not been provided with any documentation from either bureau.

I applied for a job with XXXX XXXX and they ran a background check through a company called Checkr. Personal information on the report was correct, except for my drivers license number, which was completely wrong. The traffic violation was also not correct - it showed violations in a state I've never lived in.
Unable to receive car title or other problem after the loan is paid off
I paid my car loan off in full in XXXX. I held my loan with XXXX and purchased the car from Carvana. Carvana mailed my title to a previous address, and when I called to discuss this with them in XXXX, I was told that they would need to wait for the title to bounce back to them through the postal service, and then they would forward it on to my new address. In XXXX, I called to inquire because I still hadnt received my title in the mail. I was told that the previous representative was wrong, that Carvana no longer held my title and I would need to contact the North Carolina DMV. However, when I contacted the DMV, they stated that their records showed that they had returned the title to Carvana in XXXX.
Reporting company used your report improperly
I sent a cease & desist letter to XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/21 because I never gave them expressed written consent to contact me ( violation of 15 usc 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) ) after receiving several letter via postal mail and email. The postal letters stopped but the harassing and threatening emails continued ( violation of the FDCPA ( 15 usc 1692 ( A ) ( D ) ( E ) ). No consent is fraud. I also demanded to rescind the entire transaction and was told no because it had to be done in the first 72 hours. Well pursuant to 15 usc 1635 the creditor is required to provide appropriate rescission forms for me ( the obligor ) to exercise my right to rescind. This was never mentioned to me nor was I provided any rescission forms. So the 3 business rule day is not applicable here. This is fraud and there is no statue of limitations on fraud.
Problem with personal statement of dispute
I am writing to you today regarding my student loan account which I had while I was a student at XXXX University. The purpose of my correspondence is to see if you would be willing to make a " goodwill '' adjustment on the reporting of this account to the three credit agencies. During the time period this account was established I had was very happy with the service, I was however not the ideal customer and made mistakes with my handling of the account. I should have kept better records regarding the account and I take full responsibility. I became aware of the unpaid balance when I got a copy of my credit report in XX/XX/2018. I know that payment was my responsibility and I am not attempting to justify this breach in the user agreement, I was however hoping you might review the circumstances under which this nonpayment occurred and consider removing the negative trade line associated with this account from my three credit reports. As soon as I became aware of the balance I contacted DEPT OF ED/ NEL NET I consolidated my loans, refinanced my debts for an easier payment schedule, and closed all accounts paid in full. I provide this not to justify why the account was unpaid, but rather to show that the issue with my student loan account is not a good indicator of my actual credit worthiness. I hope that DEPT OF ED/ NEL NET is willing to work with me on erasing this mark from my credit reports. Your kind consideration in this matter is greatly appreciated. Best Regards, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NJ XXXX

Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
I bought a ticket to XXXX through XXXX XXXX XXXX for XXXX XXXX XXXX it cost roughly XXXX. I used my Discover Credit Card this was in XX/XX/2020. During this time they instituted the XXXX ban and I was not able to go because of the restrictions. I wanted a refund since this was told to us all in advance. XXXX moths before my flight was even scheduled. I let XXXX XXXX XXXX know that I wanted my money back and they never gave me a credit. After waiting a year and run around I went to Discover Card to get my money back since XXXX XXXX XXXX was not allowing me. They gave me credit for my purchase and ensured me I wasnt going to be charged for a flight I never went on. Then a few months later after their investigation they charged me again for the ticket. This has since made my credit card go over my credit limit and I have had to put the account on a payment plan. How is it XXXX stuck paying this when I never went on this trip and it was canceled all together due to the COVID restriction not allowing any outsiders inside their XXXX

This is XXXX XXXX, who is submitting this CFPB complaint myself, and to inform you that there is no third party involved in the process. I sent letters to Equifax Credit Bureau the date of the last letter was on XX/XX/2022. And now we are in the month of XX/XX/2022 and still nothing from them. That means Equifax has NOT complied with the FairCredit Reporting Act law and continued to report inaccurate information on my credit report. PLEASE UPDATE OR REMOVE THE FOLLOWING ACCOUNTS COMPLETELY FROM MY CREDIT REPORT : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX
Reporting company used your report improperly
My personal information may have been compromised in the Equifax security breach earlier this month. In today 's world it is basically impossible to make major purchases without developing some sort of credit history. Essentially consumers are forced into using credit cards, and therefore divulging personal information to 3rd party companies such as Equifax. There should be certain safeguards/security in place to protect this data. This was not done for millions of people and that is wrong.

Debt was result of identity theft
In XXXX 2017 Autovest, LLC delivered an affidavit for garnishment to a training center that I work out of. I 'm an XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX full commissions contract with the company, so I travel a lot. When the forms were delivered by the Sheriff, I was out of town and the Office Manager signed for the documents, which validated the debt, by law she had to send it to the corporate office. While I was away I noticed that my commissions were short. When calling the home office to find out I discovered that this company was garnishing my checks. I was livid because, I never heard of this company before. And surprisingly, this company IS NOT even on my credit report. I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX, the attorney 's that processed the order on behalf of Autovest, and they refused to give me any information. I then XXXX Autovest, LLC and they refused to give me information and directed me back to the law firm. Getting frustrated. I contacted my attorney through XXXX XXXX to seek guidance. They instructed me to go to the court and get original debt documents. Well, the county that issued the court order did not have the original documents, it was sent to them as a foreign judgement from XXXX County, IN. So the XXXX XXXX representative referred me to an law firm in XXXX county, they told me that because the debt was so old, it was out of jurisdiction for dispute and the only thing I can do is file bankruptcy. Well, filing bankruptcy, would bed pointless, because this debt is not on my credit report! So still I had no idea who the original creditor was, and was finally directed to the XXXX County Records company. There, I was able to get a copy of the original application, which was purchased from some car company called XXXX XXXX, with my name, d.o.b., etc. But I 've NEVER owned a XXXX and never lived at the address that 's on the application. The signature is definitely forged, and it does not have a Picture ID attached to the application. This has been so frustrating, because I 'm still being garnished out of my commissions for a debt that DEFINITELY DOES NOT belong to me. I 'm not yelling at you guys. I 'm just in need of serious help. I 'm exhausting all my options here. And its just not fair.
Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
On XX/XX/21 I sent a letter to LexisNexis challenging the validity of an alleged Bankruptcy showing on my consumer report. Two of the Credit Bureaus are claiming the item was verified with LexisNexis. Additionally, I went to the Courthouse, and they stated they did not verify this information with LexisNexis. As per my right outlined in the FCRA I requested whatever documents LexisNexis had to verify this alleged Bankruptcy to be sent to me immediately. When I received no response from LexisNexis I went to the Court and requested a letter confirming they did not verify the disputed item with LexisNexis or the Credit Bureaus. I received the letter from the Court dated XX/XX/21. I wrote LexisNexis again and attached a copy of the letter from the Court. At this point, today is XX/XX/21 and LexisNexis has failed to respond to my original letter dated XX/XX/21 or any of my subsequent communication dated XX/XX/21, XX/XX/21, XX/XX/21, XX/XX/21, XX/XX/21, XX/XX/21. Since LexisNexis failed to reveal how they verified this item then it needs to be deleted per the FCRA. I've taken the appropriate steps to address this item and LexisNexis is ignoring my Consumer Rights as outlined in the FCRA.

Equifax and XXXX are reporting incorrectly that I am 90 - 120 days past due on the DEPTEDXXXX and US DEP ED accounts. Please see the attached spreadsheet of reporting bureaus and account numbers. Also, please reference pages 8, 14 and 15 of the attached credit report. These accounts report a {$0.00} balance and {$0.00} past due. However, they are coded as if I am currently past due in present day. I am not disputing any prior late payments, but rather the coding error. Please change the coding to I1. This incorrect reporting is harming my credit scores. Please keep in mind that it is impossible to be late on accounts where nothing is owed and nothing is past due.
Banking errors

Company closed your account
Citi bank blocked my account and closed my account without consulting me on XX/XX/18. Moreover, they hold my money and dont let me access to my own money. I called and went to the branch on XX/XX/18, still no help at all. They said I have to wait 30-60 days to receive a check from them for my remaining balance in my checking account. This is ridiculous. All my money is in that account, how should I live for 30-60 days without money at all!

XXXX XXXX XXXX is continue to report false information on my credit report. Nelnet is not original creditor. I never sign contract with Nelnet. Nelnet can not prove that it my debt. Nelnet claim that I owe {$23000.00}. Where is the original promissory note that I sign for {$23000.00}. What the name and address of original creditor? Who the person who approve this promissory note? When was first payment made on this account? When was last payment for this account? It seem like Nelnet try to use false deceptive, or misleading representation in connection with the debt collection. I feel that it not right to try discriminate on me because I am XXXX male. I am requesting that Consumer Financial Protection Bureau does investigation on Nelnet trying take advantage of minority. I will like someone from Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to meeting next month XX/XX/2018 in XXXX with XXXX XXXX XXXX, myself and document expect to look at promise note.
Investigation took more than 30 days
On XX/XX/2021 sent a letter regarding inaccurate and unknown things on my credit report, To this day over 60 days later I have not received a response yet. I feel like I'm being taken advantage of and being ignored of my disputes. Section XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, it is plainly stated that a failure to investigate these items within 30days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report it has been over 60 days so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress you caused me. My information was also impacted by the Equifax, XXXX and XXXX data breach and may have got into the hands of the wrong person.
Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Equifax Mortgage Service is unlawfully reporting an unauthorized inquiry on my consumer report. I have not given them permission to access my credit profile and I have no permissible purpose by law to contact third parties with my private or personal information.
Reporting company used your report improperly
I have noticed an account displaying on my consumer report that is in violation of my rights as a federally protected consumer under Title 15 Chapter 41 ( Consumer Credit Protection ). Equifax is violating my rights displaying account : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I demand this account be removed from my credit report immediately. Pursuant to 15 USC 1681a ( 2 ), Any authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or similar device should be excluded from a consumer report. The definition of a credit card, under 15 USC 1681, is the same as it is under 15 USC 1602 which states the term " CREDIT CARD '' means any card, plate, coupon book or other credit device existing for the purpose of obtaining money, property, labor or services on credit. '' Notice, Congress said " ANY '' card. The credit card used is my social security card. This is the credit card used to originate every consumer credit transaction on my consumer report. They should all be removed from my consumer report pursuant to 15 USC 1681a ( 2 ) which details exclusions. As such this transaction is to be removed from my credit report. I am demanding that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX be removed from my credit report immediately.

In addition I was the victim of identity fraud and utility services were used by someone unknown. This has been a total nightmare and to have to deal with inaccurate credit as a result of this devastation, is a lot to handle. XXXX XXXX continues to report inaccurate info is still being reported even when I am current on my payments, and a paid of account as of XX/XX/2021. XXXX also without my authorization pulled my credit multiple times without my permission, causing inaccurate inquiries, lowering my score. I have requested for at least 5 months, sent in XX/XX/2021, to all three bureaus to remove inaccurate info, and they have not. Equifax in particular is non responsive to my credit error issues, after repetitive calls and and letters. Also complaints through XXXX parties such as subserved serviced with XXXX and XXXX XXXX sent disputes. Please assist me with getting these 2 item removed as it is hurting me in getting a home with this inaccurate information on my reports.
Indicated you were committing crime by not paying debt
I had a credit card with US Bank I was unable to pay off after being laid off. I got a call from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX of I think XX/XX/2013 and they told me that I would be arrested and have my wages garnished immediately if I did not make arrangements to pay the debt with them. I paid the full amount to XXXX throughout the year. ( Roughly {$1200.00} ) I noticed it still shows owing to US bank on all credit reporting agencies, so I called US Bank. They told me the debt is still with them and that they never hired XXXX XXXX XXXX to collect on this debt and that as far as they are concerned the debt is still owing to them. I don't want to pay this debt twice but I have not been able to get anyone on the line from XXXX to arrange a refund. Online searches indicate XXXX often make such fraudulent claims and I had to try numerous numbers before I could even get one that was still in service. How can I fix this and have my debt marked as paid?

Equifax has consistently failed to rectify this problem, and my credit rating and ability to obtain legitimate credit has suffered. The following false credit inquiries must be deleted : -- XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX -- XXXX XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX -- XXXX ( no date ) -- XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX -- XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX -- XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX

Recently after obtaining a copy of my credit report I discovered that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is listed as a current creditor for : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and is reporting as open, and " Charged Off '' including Remarks ; Disputed resolved ; reported by grantor, consequently inaccurate balances have been furnished to all three credit bureaus. It appears the original creditor, [ XXXX ] sold the account to XXXX XXXX XXXX for collection on XX/XX/XXXX, the initial loan amount reports a balance of {$2500.00} and secondly, a balance of {$2300.00} several disputes were filed with the Credit Reporting Agencies ( verbally and written ) between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. ( see attachment ) All three credit reporting agencies investigations have responded with " verified as accurate. '' According to the FCRA Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) is required and Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) mandates " promptly '' DELETION of all information that can not be verified.

This is hurting my credit score which is very important to me. I know you will understand me in this situation this is becoming a frustration to me. I don't know what's happening to my credit report and I don't how you guys come up to this conclusion and report it on my credit report. This is very XXXX for me because I always pay on time. Under 15 USC 1666b this billing error must be corrected because I always pay on time this is clearly a discrepancy on this account which clearly violates the 15 USC 1666 ( b ). Not only was I never late on this account, but according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the information furnisher is required to notify me of the insertion of negative listings. Since I have disputed the lates with the creditor, and you obviously " verified '' them, I am very curious as to what kinds of " records '' you may have for this alleged account. I am very confident that you are in violation of the ( FCRA ) and ( FCBA ) sections ( 1666, 1666a. 1666b., and 1666c. ) as stated in the law. XXXX- Late 120days I, therefore submitting my written request to you to conduct an investigation. Per the FCRA, you have 30 days to conduct this investigation and respond to my request. If you do not respond within this time period, per the FCRA, you must remove this negative information. Thank you for your time. Hoping that I could get some favorable news after this investigation.

I have contacted Equifax about me being a victim of identity theft and have ask them to remove the fraudulent accounts from my credit report along with the hard and soft inquiries that were made. Equifax has yet to remove/block all fraudulent accounts as stated in the FCRA they must do within 4 business days of receiving and identity theft report and dispute.
Problem accessing account
Ally Bank recently has changed required operating system for mobile devices to the XXXX XXXX or higher. I bought few months ago my " mobile device '' aka smartphone with XXXX XXXX. The device was fully compatible with Ally mobile app back then, but now since it is impossible to update my phone ( most android phones are un-upgradable by design ) I ca n't use their mobile app. Ally Bank is an internet bank so mobile app is virtually essential for banking with the Bank. The Bank claims security as reason for the change but it means that clients, like me, can be arbitrary forced to buy new smartphones every few months. My smartphone works fine, was working fine with the old Ally Bank app and I suspect it can work fine with the new app too.
Debt was result of identity theft

Good evening, I recently paid a collection account in full on XX/XX/21. I proceeded to submit a dispute with all 3 bureaus to have the collection account removed from my credit report or my report updated to reflect showing paid in full. I received notification from XXXX on XX/XX/21 indicating that my dispute yielded updated information, however the dispute did not accomplish my goal. That updated information indicated that as of XX/XX/21, my account was past due for the full balance remaining of {$1200.00} and remains an open collection. I want to file formal FCRA violation complaints against The Bureaus, Inc. and XXXX XXXX XXXX. The former is the collection agency showing on my credit report and the latter is the company that is showing on my bank statement as receiving my payment. I have never entered into ANY contractual agreement with either company and a web search of both companies shows that they are separate entities with separate addresses, yet I dialed a single phone number to a single company ( The Bureaus, Inc. ). Please research my claim and inform these companies of their formal FCRA violation. There should be no reason why a debtor pays a debt in full yet the creditor reports false and/or inaccurate information to the credit bureaus after the debt has been paid in full.

Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
On XX/XX/2020, a sales person contacted me from XXXX XXXX advised that I was able to trade my vehicle in with no down payment with this program that they have because I had my vehicle for over a year and was making good payments. I advised that I was not trying to have my credit pulled was in the purpose of trying to purchase a home. The promise and guarantee me that only XXXX would pull my credit, and that not the case server lenders pulled my credit without my permission.
Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Last XX/XX/XXXX, I called XXXX XXXX to inquire about the due date of my payment. The agent who answered my call told me that I was pre-approved to get a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX a XXXX XXXX and/or a XXXX XXXX. I told him that I already have a card and it might affect my credit report and credit score if I get another card. He informed me that I can get as any additional card from XXXX XXXX without affecting my credit report, since " they are all in the same family '' ( these are his exact words ). I said, okay as long as it will not affect my credit report and credit score. The agent then applied 3 cards, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. While checking my inbox on my email, I got credit alert from XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX stating that XXXX XXXX pulled my credit report and my credit score decreased by 2 points. Again, I received credit alerts on XX/XX/XXXX stating that XXXX XXXX pulled my credit report from XXXX and Equifax. Another report was pulled from XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and my credit score dropped by 9 points. A total of 4 credit reports were taken from the 3 credit bureaus ( 2 from XXXX and 1 report each from XXXX and Equifax ). How can XXXX XXXX do this? I called XXXX XXXX right away to inform them about what happened to me. I was misled and made to believe that XXXX XXXX would not do a hard inquiry on my credit report. I was deceived and tricked into agreeing to apply for additional credit cards. On XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX, XXXX, I received two letters from XXXX XXXX stating that the XXXX credit bureaus have been instructed to cancel the credit inquiry. XXXX removed the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, while XXXX and Equifax still continues to have the credit inquiry of XXXX XXXX in my credit report. I sent letters to XXXX, Equifax and XXXX XXXX to remove and suppress the credit inquiry, but have been unsuccessful. XXXX XXXX sent me another letter dated XX/XX/XXXX. It stated that they are unable to comply with my request to suppress the inquiry in my credit report. That, under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, they have permissible purpose to order and review my credit report when application was submitted. Again, I sent a letter to XXXX XXXX including the conflicting letters I received from them. I feel cheated, taken advantage of and treated unfairly. I am asking for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau 's help and intervention to solve my problem, since the hard inquiries have given a negative impact on my credit report. Thank you!

I really need your help because at this point I dont know where to turn.I opened the mail and I saw three letters.One from all three credit bureaus.I felt that there was wrong information on my credit report so I challenged them. But what struck me was that the other two bureaus removed the information I challenged, which was the following : Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # :XXXX I would like to address this issue of this inaccurate account on my credit report. I followed your advice about contacting the collector.I sent them a letter by certified mail and it was received on XX/XX/2018 and asked them to verify the debt and investigate. As oftodaythey still have not responded to me nor have they attempted to investigate this issue or delete the item. This debt was not properly verified and I don't believe that it is mine. None of the credit bureaus have remedied this issue. I thought they had 30 days to investigate and fix the inaccurate account listed. It has been over 45 days and this debt has not been verified nor has it been removed from my credit profile. This is a HIPAA violation to report this on my credit report as a collection and not verify it. I would like to seek legal representation if this is not resolved.
Debt is not yours
AlliedInterstate sent me a letter stating that I owe XXXX XXXX {$160.00}. I moved out of the storage unit and swept it clean on the night XX/XX/19 at approx. XXXX. I do not owe this company any further rent. I have email confirmation that confirms my date of move out. AlliedInterstate is attempting to collect on a debt that is invalid.
Account status incorrect
My XXXX XXXX XXXX card is currently reporting to all credit bureaus as late as of XX/XX/2018. I have always paid my bills on time and this card was not 30 days late then, so I don't know why it is still reporting as late for that month. This has been very damaging to my credit for over 2 years now. Over the past 2 years, I have called multiple times to XXXX and tried to get this situation remedied but I get thrown into an infinite loop with them telling me it is too late, they can not fix anymore, " it was late, '' etc. I still have always remained loyal as a customer to XXXX and paid on time always, even though they have been hurting me for a long time now due to this. It is very unfair for the account to be shown as delinquent when it was never delinquent to begin with.
Reporting company used your report improperly
I have been wrote Equifax numerous times demanding what I need done to in order for my consumer report to be fair and accurate. Equifax refuse to do anything that is demanded of them according to the Gramm leach Bliley Act and Fair Credit Reporting. On XX/XX/2022 ; I noticed on their website in their data sharing policy it states that " Equifax shares data with an organisation based on the data subject 's consent ''. They are admitting that they need the data subject 's consent ( consumers ) to release any information. 15 USC 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) Any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) In accordance with written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates.

Investigation took more than 30 days
On XX/XX/2019 I mailed a factual dispute to Equifax anticipating incorrect information on my report to be corrected or removed. I was received by Equifax on XX/XX/2019 via certified mail with USPS tracking number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Equifax exceeded the allowed time frame to investigate the matter and began to review the case on XX/XX/2019, a full month later. That investigation also exceeded the allowed time frame of 30 days. The confirmation for the case is # XXXX. According to Equifax, the investigation should have been concluded on about XX/XX/2019. However, by XX/XX/2019, still no conclusion or results to the investigation. I called in to speak with someone assuming there was a mailed out dispute result and I was told that no decision had yet been reached, and at that moment I made a complaint with the Equifax about my violations under the FCRA. Equifax has exceeded the allowed time to investigate the accounts and per the FCRA anything that can not be verified must be deleted permanently from the consumers file.

Equifax ; XXXX and XXXX are incorrectly reporting an account where I am shown as an Authorized User on XXXX - partial account number XXXX. ( Please see page attached from my credit report. ) I have already called the bank and let them know that I never gave permission to be added as an Authorized User on this account. This incorrect reporting of me as an authorized user is harming my credit score and this line item needs to be removed from my credit report. I have contacted the bureaus to remove this issue however, I have not been successful.
Didn't receive terms that were advertised
I signed up the Citi checking and saving accounts in XX/XX/2019 via the promotion. I was supposed to receive a {$500.00} cash bonus for completing the deposit and direct debit requirements according to Citis advertisement. I contacted Citi several times during this process. Each time I was told that I had completed all the requirements. Citi guaranteed the bonus should be deposited before XX/XX/2019. I have attached the previous chat logs with Citi. However, the time has long passed but I still have not received the promised bonus. After contacted Citi one last time, they told me I was not qualified for the promotion, which was against with what they told me before. I believe Citi lied to me and gave me, the customer, the wrong information during this entire process.
Reporting company used your report improperly
I notified LexisNexis that they illegally obtained and furnished data to XXXX in regards to a bankruptcy. This information is inaccurate and false and needs to be removed immediately!!!! I spoke with Agent XXXX about this matter and she acknowledged on a recorded line that the bankruptcy information was inaccurate and needed to be removed! She supplied me with case number XXXX to follow up with my dispute and removal of the falsely reported information. The bankruptcy courts do not report to credit reporting agencies and have provided information via an online statement that says that they are not a data furnisher!!! This is a clear violation of 15 usc 1692e!!!! This also violates 15 usc 1692d and 15 usc 1692g!!!! LexisNexis is civilly liable to pay XXXX per violation according to 15 usc 1692k!
Didn't receive terms that were advertised
In XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX I was solicited multiple times from Citibank to open an account and receive a {$1500.00} promo. Based on the Citibank 's Offered promises, advertisements, solicitations, etc, etc I proceeded to open an account on line with Citibank. From the moment of attempting to open an account, Citibank 's online system, website, platform, backend systems and processes had numerous glitches and problems. Citibank 's account glitches did not end there. I had the funds ( & then some ) ready to open the account ; however, Citibank admitted glitches about Citibank 's website, Citibank 's system & processes and problems on Citibank 's end. I have witnesses on this matter. My wealth relationship manager ( and many other Citibank representatives ) were well aware of Citibank 's system, website & other glitches through my many, many, many calls to Citibank about those issues. I have witness/es that My wealth relationship manager acknowledged, affirmed & admitted Citibank 's platform problems, Citibank 's website problems, Citibank 's system glitches and problems and promised everything would be taken care of ( i.e. the promo would be paid to my account asap ). I was promised the promo would be paid in : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX When XXXX came and still the promo had not been paid to my account ( fully funded and then some even after one wire transfer was stuck for many days because of Citibank 's issues/problems ), I called my wealth relationship manager again. But my call went to her voice mail. Another call went to someone else who was aware that my wealth relationship manager was not working for Citibank wealth management anymore ; I was given the name of someone else and was provided his contact information. I immediately called this new person who admitted that my wealth relationship manger had left Citibank ; he said he was temporary representative and he did not know when the 'permanent ' representative would arrive. This temporary person said he had filed a claim on my behalf to get Citibank 's very own promised promo ; and I have heard nothing. It was completely disengenuous that calls were still routing to someone who was no longer employed with Citibank for quite a while. Just like my wealth relationship manager said if it wasn't done by XXXX, she would take it upon herself to file a claim to make sure Citibank fulfilled their promise and make it right by great ( CitiGold ) customer service to a client like myself, who has referred so many of my friends and family members to open new accounts with Citibank and move their money to Citi. I have witnesses and Citibank 's own representatives admitting website problems, Citibank 's platform issues, Citibank 's system glitches. I would not put myself through such pain, headaches and disappointment and such supreme disillusionment in Citibank lack of care for their clients. I would not wish this on anyone else to go through what I have gone through. Citibank needs to make this right ; make me whole ; pay me the promised full promotion {$1500.00} as solicited, marketed and advertised. And furthermore promised so many time by Citi 's Representative/s and Assistant Vice President.
Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Previously a complaint had been submitted for the reporting of incorrect information. Equifax removed certain information fields to make the report look accurate. However by doing so they made the information being reported incomplete. How can they say an account was 30, 60, or 90 days past due if they can't show a date of last activity? Also green dot and Equifax have repeatedly claimed to validate the information being reported as accurate. In accordance with the FCRA I have requested copies of the documents used to validate the information being reported. I have been refused. This is a clear violation of my rights under the FCRA. FURTHERMORE, the attached documents will show that XXXX XXXX is just reporting negative information to hurt my credit score. This is obvious because different information is being reported to all XXXX agencies. Yet each agency has validated the information as accurate.
Confusing or misleading advertising or marketing
I visited carvana website for an automobile because I received an email with the subject " Find out if your terms have improved in two minutes ''. I thought I received this due to the dispute that was just completed. When i first used their site to get my terms ( {$1800.00} down, 22 % interest rate for 68 months ) they were based off my FICO score at the time, which was XXXX due to an item that was incorrectly reporting - a medical bill for {$540.00}. I disputed the item, and within four days, it was deleted from all three credit bureaus, increasing my FICO to a XXXX. I have no other debt, no collections, and I am an authorized user on my XXXX XXXX XXXX card. There is no credit usage on the card. I was recently approved for two credit cards as the primary account holder. So, I went back to re-do my terms now that my credit has been fixed, and was told by Chat rep, XXXX, that i am unable to get new terms, even after the email advertising strictly said " Has your credit improved? You can see if your terms have improvedwith no hit to your credit scorein just a few minutes. ''

The proof that Alleged Lender breached the agreement is that both your assets and liabilities increased, proving that Alleged Lender recorded a loan from Borrower to Alleged Lender and then returned the loaned money from Alleged Lender back to Borrower, falsely claiming the money returned to Borrower is a loan from Alleged Lender to Borrower. Alleged Lender did the opposite of what was advertised and agreed to and then concealed the fact that Alleged Lender accepted money or credit or thing of value from Borrower that funded a check or similar instrument in the amount of the alleged loan. This notice will remain as fact of the elements of the alleged agreement and the breach of Alleged Lender unless Alleged Lender disputes this notice within 10 days. According to 15 USC 1602 only a natural person can extend credit. Banks do not extend credit. " Credit Card '' is defined as a license plate, ID, or social security card account number to extend credit. Signed, Authorized Representative XXXX https : XXXX

Can't use card to make purchases
Starting XX/XX/XXXX is when I first noticed my account said delinquent. I contacted the Upgrade.com immediately to find out what the problem was since my payments are autopay on my due dates. I was told by a representative that it was a glitch in their system and it would be resolved. After XXXX phone calls and several emails it is still not resolved. My account is now stating I am 15 days delinquent for {$9.00} and no one can assist me. I even paid the {$9.00} today XX/XX/XXXX to see if that would resolve it and now it says Im past due {$7.00}. This issue has happened in the past with this company due to a glitch in their system. No one is helping me.
