Complaint sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

I am a victim of identity theft. The thief has my SS, DOB and address. With this information, the thief conveniently called the credit reporting agencies and was able to place a fraud alert on my file and CHANGE THE PHONE NUMBERS on my account. I am SHOCKED that the credit reporting agencies allow a phone number that has been in use for 20+ years to be changed that easily and NONE of the agencies notified me of a change to my contact information. THANKS to the Credit Reporting Agency changing my phone number, the fraudsters were able to buy a car in my name with the Car Dealership contacting the FRAUDSTER at the number they had provided to the Credit Reporting Agency, i.e. Equifax. The credit report supplied to me by the dealership clearly states to contact the consumer at a fraudulent phone number to verify the application for credit. With increased sophistication of FRAUD, Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX CLEARLY NEED A NEW METHOD of verification besides SS, DOB and ADDRESS. Perhaps a good called ID would be a good investment.

Complaint sub-issue: Unable to open an account

I attempted to open an account with PNC bank to take advantage of their compensation if you get direct deposit. PNC bank opened multiple accounts in my name then sent me notices saying they were all closed. In addition, they sent me a card but I have been unable to access the account online and customer service is of no assistance. I am unsure how or why they would have done this in the first place. My concern is that they are actually using these fake accounts in my name to borrow money under my social security number. Im asking for an investigation into whether PNC is opening extra fake accounts in customers names then sending them notices that they are closed. Thank you

Hello, In regards to my Credit Report with Equifax, I am submitting information again to dispute a charge of : {$990.00} from : XXXX which was opened on : XX/XX/2012.

Complaint sub-issue: Debt was paid

For the past three months, I have had issues with my Upgrade card falsely labeling my account as delinquent for non-payment despite the fact that I have my payments set up to be automatically deducted monthly. I have called so many times about this issue I have lost count with the most recent call being today XX/XX/2022. I am told that their system incorrectly allocates my payments and that there's nothing that can be done unless I call in every month prior to my payment being deducted to make sure someone manually allocates the payment correctly. In the meantime, if this isn't done, my account is labeled as being delinquent and all of my card transactions are declined. They also have charged me several " accrual ' fees related to this despite me never making a late payment or underpaying. They are penalizing customers because their system is flawed.
