Complaint sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

These bureaus are falsely reporting alleged debt which is a FDCPA section 807 violation " 15 USC 1692e ''. The alleged debt can not be verified and I have yet to receive a response after 30 days which is another violation under the FCRA.
Complaint sub-issue: Debt is not yours

I submitted a request for PRO COLLECT or XXXX XXXX XXXX to validate a alleged debt, what I received was a lease from 2005 in which I signed a lease with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX PRO COLLECT nor XXXX XXXX can not with 100 % certainty produce any documentation where I signed a lease agreement either entity. I am getting the law directly from your policy FCRA 609. If original debt can not be verified it has to be removed.. This law requires every company that reports credit events -- not just the original creditor companies -- to be able to produce verifiable proof of the negative event. It holds the credit reporting agencies accountable for the negative information they pass on. This is obviously related to the right of debtors to challenge the accuracy of negative events reported on them. The intent of the government was to protect debtors from having inaccurate information used against them .... I hope this can be resolved without me seeking legal representation and me calling the local news to advise them that my rights are being neglected/overlooked by the agency that has sworn to protect them.
Complaint sub-issue: Debt is not yours

To whom it may concern : This is to bring forth the fact that a validation letter was sent to I.C. Systems for accounts ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX ) on XXXX, 2020. I.C.

No verbal or written contract were agreed upon with I.C. System and furthermore as stated earlier they have failed to validate the accounts the show the following balances : {$940.00}, {$1000.00}, {$1500.00}
Complaint sub-issue: Debt was paid

I ran my credit report XX/XX/XXXX as I am attempting to purchase a home ... I saw XXXX on my credit report. I contacted XXXX, they claimed non return of equipment from XX/XX/XXXX in which I did not recall. I attempted to have it removed, they claimed that it was valid so I contacted the collections agency, I advised the agency that I needed XXXX removed and cleared from my report, they promised it would be removed so I paid it but it still remains on my report, the balance is now XXXX but XXXX still shows under the collection tab with a XXXX balance. I need this removed from my report.
Complaint sub-issue: Used obscene, profane, or other abusive language

I received a robo-dialed call about a " legal matter ''. I called back. The representative said my full social security number over the phone and would not tell me who she was until I confirmed who was calling and why. She refused and said " tell it to the judge '' and hung up. 

I called back several times and was hung up on several times. Eventually I spoke with " XXXX XXXX '' who was the person in charge. He threatened me with criminal fraud charges, asked about my XXXX, asked about my mother, told me he knows everything about me and that he had a picture of me. He then called my mother and put her on the phone. 

At no point did the company ever say their business name, who the attorney who represents them is, or what their mailing adress is.
Complaint sub-issue: Didn't receive terms that were advertised

I opened Citi XXXX checking and savings accounts in-branch on XXXX XXXX, XXXX, because of a {$700.00} cash bonus offer. The banker let me know I would need a minimum deposit and balance of {$50000.00} for at least 60 consecutive days. 

I deposited {$50000.00} on XXXX XXXX, XXXX, and kept a minimum {$50000.00} balance until XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX about 80 days XXXX. 

The offer documentation says the bonus will be credited within 90 days from completing the required actions. However, it's been more than 90 days, and I haven't received the {$700.00} cash bonus. 

I reached out to Citi by online chat and was told I would have to call in about the offer. I called in and was told I couldn't be helped. I feel like I'm not getting an honest investigation and think it's unfair I haven't yet received the bonus after the terms were met and exceeded.
Complaint sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Waiting for the credit bureau response to clear these false accounts on my credit!
Complaint sub-issue: Confusing or missing disclosures

On XX/XX/19 I went to the bank ( BB & T ) to open a CD with {$4500.00}, I counted the amount and left it on the desk for the person to take it up to the teller. He took the money up to have it counted. A few minutes later he came back and told me I was short {$780.00}. I took more money to make up the difference. I was so upset that I left the bank. I called the bank back and ask to she the security video and the manager told me the tape had to be review by the security unit and she would get back to me in about a week. She asked me not put put this on social media. I called her back after a week and she said she had not information for me and it could take weeks or months to it to be resolved. She was more worried about the employee then myself, she said his job would be on the line
Complaint sub-issue: Information is not mine

I checked my credit score on XXXX and it says that I have a derogatory mark on my credit from XXXX for XXXX in 2013. This is my XXXX time checking my credit in a while. I have never had a XXXX account nor do I owe anyone XXXX dollars.
Complaint sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

I disputed an unfamiliar account that was reporting as inaccurate and incomplete with all three CRAs on XX/XX/2021 siding that the account was unfamiliar to me and ask them to investigate the account to verify that the account was indeed mine. That intern provided no resolution only a simple one line response from only XXXX  saying that the account was verified but no documentation or explanation of how it was verified, which I did request. 

I received no response from Equifax or XXXX XXXX whatsoever. 

On XX/XX/2021 I filed a second dispute with all three CRAs And again informing them that there was an account that was reporting in accurate and complete. This time I submitted documentation explaining and highlighting all of the errors that I found on my most recent credit report regarding this account, which were several. Nearly every element was inconsistent across the three bureaus. The amount owed, date the account was opened, date the account was closed, last reporting date, last payment date, literally everything regarding that account was inconsistent as well as many things that were missing from the report making it clearly incomplete. Because of this I asked to have a thorough a complete investigation on the account and provide me with their findings, and ask them to include who they contacted, what method to use to verify this information, etc. I also notified them of their obligations under the FCRA, that everything contained in the report must be complete and accurate. 

In response, this is what I received from each bureau. 

From XXXX  I received what appears to be a standard form letter saying that they had already looked into the account ( from my first dispute ) and it came back as verified, although they did not provide any information or documentation on how that was determined, and informed me that they would not be closing the account. They also informed me that I would need to provide documentation as to why I am challenging the account, which I clearly did. Which leads me to believe that they did not do an investigation at all, But instead just used the information from the original dispute and deem that it was verified. Which does not constitute a reasonable investigation as required. 

From Equifax I received no response to the first dispute, to the second dispute one of the accounts I was disputing was removed, the other, which was only reporting on Equifax, was not removed. I received only one line response in regards to the Account that was not deleted siding that it was verified with no explanation or documentation. 

From XXXX XXXX I received nothing in response to my first or second dispute on the matter. All of these disputes were six certified mail so I know that they were received. They are now noncompliant of it the requirement to respond within 30 days not once but twice.
Complaint sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

I am attaching the investigation request that my husband and I sent in to the credit bureaus onXX/XX/XXXX. They are supposed to respond with 30 days. Although my husband has received all of his responses on time, I have not yet received anything.
Complaint sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

I notified the credit agencies that this creditor never sent me the required proof, yet they continue to list this account on my credit report. 

My credit reports list XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX for monies owed to XXXX. I submitted documentation that showed that the original creditor was paid However, the credit reporting agencies continue to list XXXX XXXX on my credit report. Furthermore, two separate collection agencies can not be listed on my creditreport over the same account.

Complaint sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Hey on XXXX/XXXX/2021 I had sent in a letter regarding inaccurate and not known to my knowledge things on my credit report. Leading up to this day which is over 30 days later I have not gotten a response yet. I feel like I'm being taken advantage of and ignored. After taking some time to do research on this matter, I concluded that failure to investigate these items within 30-45 days gives a reason to immediately remove these inaccurate items from my credit report. It has been over 30 days so they should be deleted immediately. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation, due to the headache and stress you have given me.

Complaint sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

This is XXXX XXXX submitting yet another CFPB complaint to request to the Credit Bureaus to properly invetigate and correct the dispute account from my Credit Report. The Credit Reporting Agencies continued to report this account as late and claimed that the account is verified but I did not receive any proof of verification or any document for them to claim that the account is investigated and verified. If the Credit Bureaus ' investigation is really conducted at all, they should have sent me any document as proof of verification! Once again, I AM NOT LATE IN PAYING WITH THIS ACCOUNT! I do not believe I am late on the dates this account reports. Also, I have been keeping my own record of payment and the data this account reports do not match with what I have. The 3 credit bureaus must validate these accounts in line with Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). It is not authorized to fail to validate these reporting accounts as unverified information without providing any proof within the period allowed by law. I am urging the Credit Bureaus to please CONDUCT ANOTHER INVESTIGATION AND UPDATE THE PAYMENT STATUS OF THIS ACCOUNT!
