On XX/XX/2020, I contacted the three major bureaus concerning Chapter XXXX Bankruptcy reported on my credit report. The Bureau sent me a letter, stating that they received the information from the United States Bankruptcy Court, District of Nevada, yet I received a letters from the Bankruptcy Court that they did not send any information to the Three Major Bureaus, therefore they are reporting incorrect information ( see attach ) Also they stated that they received the information from XXXX XXXX, yet I contacted XXXX XXXX and was told that my account was frozen ( see attach ). Therefore when I requested proof to the accuracy of the bankruptcy, the bureau could not provide me that information, and it's been well over the allotted 30 days that the bureau has to validate ( no verified ), according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), and are in violation of several of the General Rights and Obligations of NRS, including NRS 598 C. 130, NRS 598C, 160NRS 598C. 170, NRS 598C 190 and NRS 598C.200.

Complaint sub-issue: Can't use card to make purchases

Although within my credit limit, CitiCard blocked a transaction from being authorized. When I called to rectify the situation, I was told that nothing could be done because their system was down and they could not explain to me why my transaction was being blocked nor could they authorize the transaction. I was told to call back in 2 hours and they could hopefully resolve this situation. This was an unacceptable response. <P/>This prevented me from using the 0 % interest for 21 months that was a key feature of my product.

Complaint sub-issue: Received bad information about your loan

Good Afternoon, I am writing to you as I do not know where else to turn. I have already tried several times over the past year, spending countless hours on the phone with Fed Loan Servicing to resolve this issue and emailing them as well. I am part of the Public Interest Loan Forgiveness Program and have contacted Fed Loan multiple times to correctly update my " Qualifying Payment Count '' to the accurate amount. All of my Employment Certification Forms have been submitted and uploaded by Fed Loan, and are even listed with the correct dates in Fed Loan 's letters that they send me, yet they still have an inaccurate number of Qualifying and inaccurate amount of eligible payments listed, keeping me at XXXX qualifying payments when the number is actually over 90. They estimate my forgiveness in the program to be XXXX when it is actually no later than XXXX. I have been in this program since XXXX making on-time monthly payments while employed full-time for qualifying employers that have been APPROVED by Fed Loan, yet they still do not update my payments despite countless requests, responding only with generic language from their website when I submit complaints through writing, and providing inaccurate information over the phone. The only time I did not make on-time payments while employed full-time by a qualifying employer during the past 11 years was for a brief period of 1 year total ( respectively one period of 8 months not working and another period of 3 months not working ). where I was not working. The only other time I did not make payments was during Covid when I was working for a qualifying employer but the amount was waived for all those in the Public Interest Program. I was told by Fed Loan Servicing that these {$0.00} payments would count since I was working full-time for a qualifying employer. They STILL have not been updated as qualifying payments in my account. 

This has been going on for over a year, and they each time fail to submit accurate counts. They also fail to provide a SPECIFIC timeline of days or a specific date of when I can expect to receive an ACCURATE updated payment count. Any help in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

I have been a victim of identity theft for several months. Each month I get a credit report now to ensure that everything is correct and accurate. In XX/XX/2020 I received all three credit reports and there were several fraudulent information. I sent a package to all three credit agencies stating what information was fraudulent. In XX/XX/2020 I received a new copy of all three credit reports and some of the old information was still on the reports plus there was a new account. I sent all three credit agencies a new package listing all of the information that was being reported incorrectly and that was fraudulent. I have not received my XX/XX/2020 report as of yet but from what I can see on the agencies website the information is still on my report and nothing has been done to remove it. I have attached a copy of both packages I sent in XXXX and XXXX, a copy of my driver 's license for address verification, a copy of ssn card for identification, and a copy of my identity theft affidavit.The information listed below, which appears on my credit report, does not relate to any transaction ( s ) that I have made.

Complaint sub-issue: Account status incorrect

XX/XX/XXXX, I began working with a credit counseling agency ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) to renegotiate the terms of my XXXX business card. XXXX 's Policy on business credit cards is they don't report consumers delinquent or defaulted until the account is 60 days past due. The credit card payment was due XX/XX/XXXX. According to a representative I spoke with at XXXX, the credit card account would not have been 60-days past due until XX/XX/XXXX. In the interim, I was informed direct all payments to XXXX XXXX which they would then submit the payments to XXXX. 
The first payment was deducted from my checking account by XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, in the amount of {$220.00}. I received numerous calls from XXXX during the month of XXXX. I told XXXX, I had begun working with a credit counseling agency. As I received more calls from XXXX, I contacted XXXX XXXX in regards to my account with XXXX. XXXX XXXX first stated, They were waiting for XXXX to approve my credit counseling plan. On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted XXXX XXXX again because I was still receiving correspondence from XXXX. XXXX XXXX stated, They were waiting for a full months payment to submit the debt management plan to XXXX. They instructed me to disregard correspondence from XXXX. As of XX/XX/XXXX XXXX, XXXX had already deducted {$470.00} from my checking account and XXXX hadnt received any payments from them. The monthly payment determined by XXXX XXXX is {$450.00}. 
At this point, I began to get concerned XXXX XXXX was not being candid about the agreement with XXXX and was going to end the relationship. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from XXXX dated XX/XX/XXXX stating they accepted the payment proposal from XXXX XXXX. The letter also stated that they must receive a payment of {$450.00} by XX/XX/XXXX. The letter further states that all payments are to be made to XXXX XXXX and any direct payments scheduled to XXXX canceled. The first payment was made from XXXX XXXX to XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. 
This resulted in XXXX reporting me 30-days delinquent in XXXX, 60-days delinquent in XXXX, and 30-days delinquent in XXXX. I tried to resolve this matter with XXXX and with XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX informed me on XX/XX/XXXX, that the debt management proposal wasnt actually submitted until XX/XX/XXXX ; XXXX weeks after XXXX XXXX told me they were waiting for XXXX to accept the proposal.
Complaint sub-issue: Account information incorrect

The beginning of XX/XX/2022, I received notification from XXXX XXXX regarding an outstanding account with XXXX XXXX XXXX along with payment options to satisfy the {$9400.00} balance. I called and spoke to a representative to request a verification of debt letter. Upon receiving the information, the math was not accurate. I have reached out to XXXX and disputed this account in the past, but was informed the account had been sold to collections and to contact them with any questions. 

XXXX XX/XX/2022, I filed a dispute with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX the discrepancy in the amount owed. CFPB dispute number XXXX. Their response regurgitated a lot of known information, however failed to address the error. The end of the response contained a phone number for XXXX XXXX and for me to call with any questions. 
XXXX XXXX, 2022, I called, as per instructed, and was again informed my account had been sold to a collection agency and for me to reach out to them with any questions. 
XXXX XXXX, 2022, I filed a dispute with CFPB ( XXXX ) with XXXX XXXX and submitted the documentation proving the amount owed is not what XXXX is claiming XXXX I added XXXX XXXX in the dispute and they received a copy. XXXX XXXX replied after reviewing the documents submitted, the collection account was sent back to XXXX XXXX. They would cease all collection activity on that account. XXXX has yet to respond to this dispute. 

I have disputed the XXXX account with through the credit reporting agencies and those were closed in favor of the creditor. I was advised to file disputes through CFPB against the CRAs considering the documentation proves my case and the information being reported is inaccurate. In addition, trying to get this resolved with the creditor has proven ineffective as incorrect information was provided to CFPB about calling for assistance, the status of my account, and they have not offered any information regarding the mathematical errors and the amount being reported vs the amount paid on the account, deduction of the amount of sale from car, exaggerated, unexplained fees that contributed to the high amount in collections. I have tried repeatedly to receive clarification on the account however misinformation has left me out of options and with a derogatory negative mark which affects my credit score severely. 

Even without the 23 months of payments made towards the {$14000.00} balance, the vehicle was sold for {$8000.00} added to the amount owed on my craa, the amount exceedes the original plan amount
Complaint sub-issue: Other problem

I had a XXXX credit line with Discover Card. They suddenly lowered the credit line for no reason and no notice shortly after paying them off for no valid reason. This was mainly due to unethical issues with XXXX XXXX sending my ex husband a credit card making him think he was approved for a XXXX card he had recently applied for. Instead they sent him a card under my account as an authorized user but making it look like his own account. It was not time for issuance of new cards and neither I nor XXXX asked for this card. I have complained to the XXXX and they have completely mistrued the issue with replying to the XXXX about XXXX being a authorized user on my Discover Card which had nothing to do with the issue of the credit line decrease because of the authorized user card on my XXXX XXXX account. Either they are illiterate and are totally unable to read or interpret or they are just wasting time and not planning on correcting the issue which had nothing to do with increased spending on my part. Complaints have also been filed with XXXX XXXX.

I have had citi diamond preferred card since XXXX and HAVE NEVER MISSED A PAYMENT except for last month when I moved from XXXX  to XXXX and got into this COVID-19 nightmare. I couldn't rent an apartment because all showings have stopped, and my bills were not being forwarded from California to my new temporary address despite my request with USPS. So I missed just one monthly payment of {$160.00} BY ONLY 5 DAYS. Here 's what citibank has done in response " triggered '' the penalty APR of 29.9 % ( mob loan sharks collect less, as media suggests ), assessed me a late fee of {$29.00}, and already started harassing automated calls to " collect '' debt ( last call was received on Sunday, XX/XX/XXXX, in the morning ). It is indescribable shame with which this bank that got billions of dollars in free governmental handouts in XXXX is now trying to profiteer in the time of a national calamity. Please help to stop this revolting activity implemented by a detestable clique of unpatriotic corporate vermin who have no principles but are guided instead by greed, hypocrisy, and vileness.
