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

I have disputed an inaccurate account on my credit report from XXXX XXXX XXXX. They are reporting absolute false info, by stating reporting that I had an installment account with them, even showing 36 on time payments thru XX/XX/XXXX, then defaulting to a charge off status after that. There has NEVER been an installment account with them. I even confirmed this by phone with XXXX XXXX XXXX, and supposedly XXXX with XXXX documented such facts so that it would be reported when disputed. This account was an " overpayment '' of a Pell Grant given to me in XX/XX/XXXX when I was attending XXXX XXXX. Then billed me for overpayment of {$180.00} for 120 days, before turning it over XXXX XXXX XXXX to collect. I have disputed this on THREE separate occasions with both XXXX  and Equifax, demanding they do their job and investigate this false reporting, however, XXXX XXXX XXXX continues to " verify information as correct, '' and the Credit Bureau continues to accept such false verification without the documentation I have requested validating the accuracy of the account. They have continuously violated the FCRA sections 611 and 623. I filed a complaint with CFPB on XX/XX/XXXX ( XXXX ) and complaint was closed advising me to deal with XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding issue. Clearly it wasn't noted that I had already made several attempts to do that, hence my seeking help from them for a resolution. Therefore, I have sent it to the CFPB Ombudsman for second review. I was advised to file separate complaints for each credit bureau.
Complaint sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Formal notice that you have failed to respond in a timely manner to my dispute letter of insert date, deposited by registered mail with the U.S. Postal Service on that date. Federal law requires you to respond within thirty ( 30 ) days, yet you have failed to respond. Failure to comply with these federal regulations by credit reporting agencies are investigated by the Federal Trade Commission XXXX FTC ) ( see 15 USC 41, et seq. ). 
I am maintaining a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance. I further remind you that, as in Wenger v. Trans Union Corp., No. 95-6445 ( C.D.Cal. Nov. 14, 1995 ), you may be liable for your willful non-compliance.
Complaint sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

My identity was stolen XXXX 2017 and reported to authorities, 7 year freeze placed. 
Citibank NA reported three inquiries to XXXX, all fraudulent. All other creditors corrected/updated information with three credit bureaus but NOT Citibank. 

I disputed with XXXX and Citibank reported " inquiries are a factual record of file access '', which THEY ARE NOT. I tried calling both numbers provided by XXXX to contact the creditor in order to dispute the unauthorized access. First, called ( XXXX ) XXXX, referred me to ( XXXX ) XXXX, customer service stated Citibank NA was a credit card company and to contact ( XXXX ) XXXX. Both times I actually reached them, they hung up on me BUT not before telling me applications can only be seen for 60 days, so even if applications are fraudulent, can not be removed if made over 60 days ago. Unreal.
Complaint sub-issue: Account status incorrect

My complaint is against XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ). 
I have submitted many disputes with Equifax to investigate XXXX who continues to report the wrong information fraudulently on my credit report. 

1- this is a car loan with the first delinquency was in XXXX XXXXXXXX however XXXX keeps reporting this account every month as a charge off with different " 1st delinquency dates '' ( please see attached reports with XXXX showing XXXX XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX as 1st delinquency dates ). XXXX also shows that the last payment I made was in XX/XX/XXXX, but I was serving time in XXXX XXXX since XXXX and no payments were made at all in late XXXX and XXXX. XXXX reports the wrong dates in an attempt to keep the account on the credit report for as long as they could. 

2- XXXX intentionally report their wrong phone numbers or no contact information at all on the credit reports so that no one can reach them. ( please see attachments showing that XXXX have 2 different phone numbers that are not valid and some reports they have no contact information at all or partial address ). 

3- After many attempts trying to reach XXXX financials to discuss this issue, I was informed by XXXX that they do not own this account anymore and that now it's with a collection agency, but yet XXXX continues to claim that this is their account and continues to report my account fraudulently as charge off every month to Equifax XXXX 

4- XXXX fraudulently placed a temp freeze on my credit report account so that it keeps this account on the credit report. ( please see attached file ). 

4- Equifax relies on XXXX to update my account, but Equifax never investigated XXXX to make sure that XXXX is reporting the correct information.

Complaint sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Equifax was hacked and my PII as well my financial information may have been stolen.Equifax mishandled my personal information including Name, Social Security #, Address, Birthdate, etc. resulting in a data breach in XXXX/XXXX 2017 that they confirmed I was affected by per their " Potential Impact '' site www.equifaxsecurity2017.com. 
They have put myself and millions of others at risk of identity theft/fraud due to negligent security protocols in handling consumer information. They are further attempting to capitalize on the situation by signing injured parties THEY are responsible for up for " trial periods '' of their ID protection services. 

They are simultaneously defrauding these injured parties with hidden terms of service that waive their right to sue the company in what is clearly a situation of criminal negligence/fraudulent behavior as indicated by the three Equifax executives that dumped stock immediately prior to the data breach announcement.

Hello - Hope you are staying well ... .this is a follow up to CFBP inquiry # XXXX ( both inquiry and response are attached ). The initial inquiry had two requests, only one of which was answered.

I have a credit card account XXXX ( please refer to my XXXX Credit report attached below ) in my name with Discover and XX/XX/2022 I notice my credit score drop by several points. I started to research what has changed and noticed my outstanding available credit was greatly different from the prior month on my XXXX credit report for XXXX than from XXXX and then compared the two report and noticed my opened Discover credit card account was no longer reporting to my XXXX credit report. It continues to report to XXXX and XXXX. I called discover several times regarding this issue in XXXX and was told to that they are reporting the card to XXXX and it's an issue in their system and wait until the XXXX to see if it reports since I did report that the card was stolen the end of XXXX I believe.

Complaint sub-issue: Other problem getting your report or credit score

Equifax charged me {$11.00} for a credit report. The credit score was not included. I called Equifax and they want to charge me another {$7.00} for my credit score. They were not able to direct me as to how to retrieve this online and could only take my payment over the phone and mail me the credit SCORE only. There is no clear directions or disclaimer on the their website stating the credit REPORT does NOT include the credit score. This is fraudulent, and further mitigated by the fact they were not receptive to refunding the {$11.00} and then allowing me to pay the {$7.00} to get my credit SCORE, or at least just verbally telling me my score over the phone since I already paid for the report. This was all catalyze by the fact they sent my bank the wrong credit score ( 100 pts lower than actual ).
