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/XXXX. And now we are in the month of XX/XX/XXXX 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.

Note that the collector has to stop all collection activities until it can provide all the evidence. Under the FDCPA Section 809, Validation of debts [ 15 USC 1692g ] I have the right to verify any alleged debt on my credit report and if the alleged debt is being disputed, the debt collector shall cease.

I received a letter in the mail today informing me that I was not approved for a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX applied for in my name on XX/XX/2022. I did not apply for this card or any other in recent history. TransUnion shows the information submitted to the company as being an old phone number ( not current ), my first and last name, and my address. My credit score dropped XXXX points for the hard inquiry due to its chronological proximity to a pull done for a credit card I opened two months ago. I did not apply for this card ; TransUnion does not allow you to dispute inquiries, so that's a problem in and of itself. The issue with XXXX is that I don't know how this bank got my information in an application and THEN failed to perform adequate checking to make sure the information belonged to the applicant.

Currently they are having a technical difficulty where I can not link my accounts to their system allowing them to see my current account balances. Instead of addressing this issue, my mortgage application was denied today, XX/XX/2021, on the basis of having insufficient assets although I have more than enough assets to qualify for the mortgage I applied for. It is illegal for them to exclude my assets on this basis.

They told me they are not required to allow me to dispute this inaccurate information any longer. I constantly have to do XXXX, Equifax and XXXX 's job for them to shield my credit & prove my identity.

I am writing to formally dispute and address the erroneous reporting of a debt by Elan Financial Services on my credit report. Despite numerous attempts to resolve this matter, I, XXXX XXXX, have never owned an account with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX I have provided Elan Financial Services with ample opportunities to rectify this mistake, yet I am continually being harassed by their reporting of a debt that has not been legally verified. This baseless reporting has led to unfair damage to my credit, and I am now left with no choice but to escalate this matter. Elan Financial Services has failed to provide any legitimate evidence. Instead, I have received frivolous documents pertaining to an alleged online application, which do not satisfy the legal requirements for verification. I have a comprehensive record of all correspondence, requests, and responses ( or lack thereof ) from Elan Financial Services and the credit reporting agencies. Despite my repeated efforts to resolve this matter, I am being ignored, and no meaningful action has been taken by Elan Financial Services or the credit bureaus to address this issue. This failure to provide adequate proof of the alleged debt is a violation of my rights under federal law. I requested hat Elan Financial Services immediately provide verifiable proof of this debt, including the original consumer contract bearing my wet signature, a copy of my valid drivers license, and a full and clear explanation of how this debt was verified. But received nothing still just computerized billing statements.

Issue: Problems at the end of the loan or lease — Unable to receive car title or other problem after the loan is paid off
Company: UNITED SERVICES AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION (MD)

I had an auto loan through USAA and I sold the car to XXXX at the beginning of XXXX. XXXX sent a check to USAA to pay off the loan on XXXX XXXX, 2022. There was an extended warranty and service plan that was canceled at the time that I sold the vehicle so two more checks were sent to USAA for the balance of those plans. I called USAA XX/XX/2022 and told them 2 more checks were coming, 1 for {$380.00} and another for {$730.00}. The member services representative told me they would transfer the overpayment to my account when they received it. I called again on XX/XX/2022 to check on the status, and they said they sent the checks back to XXXX. When I called XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/2022, they showed that USAA had actually cashed the checks on XXXX/XXXX/2022. I called USAA back the same day, and they said they would research where the money was and deposit it in my account or call me back. I never heard from them. I called back on XXXX/XXXX/2022, and they said another department had cashed the checks but when I asked to speak with that department, I was told I could not speak with them. However, they advised that they had sent new checks back to XXXX. I asked to be provided copies of the checks so I could go back to XXXX to get my money. They said they would get me copy with in a couple days but again I never heard from them. I called again on XXXX/XXXX/2022, and was on hold for over 45 minutes and ultimately transferred two time ( each time having to re-tell my story ) and they said the insurance department cashed the checks and sent new ones back and there wasn't anything I could do. I asked for copies of the checks again and they said they didn't have copies. What kind of bank doesn't have copies of their checks? They told me again they would escalate the complaint and call me back. They have lied repeatedly and refused to give me my money or prove they don't have it. I asked to speak to a supervisor or someone in the " insurance department '' but was again told there was no one else I could speak to. It has been months they have held {$1100.00} and failed to help me or even call me back. I called XXXX today, XXXX/XXXX/2022, and they said they received one of the checks today which means USAA did not send it back when they originally said they had and only did it after lying to me the last time I spoke to them. The second check still has not been received by XXXX.

Company: Sequium Asset Solutions, LLC (TX)

I received a call from Sequium Asset Solutions on XX/XX/22. They immediately asked me to verify my name and address. I replied saying I am more comfortable with her telling me what they have on file and I will confirm if it is correct. The lady ended the call. 

I called back and told the person who answered what happened and she asked for my name which I gave her. She gave me their website, www.sequium.com and a reference # so that I could look up my account. I kept her on the phone so that she could walk me through the screens. I put in the reference number and then it prompted me to enter the last 4 of my SSN which I entered, to no avail. I entered the last 4 of my SSN twice and got an error message saying it was invalid. The lady on the phone instructed me to enter 5900 which worked. I told her those number are not the last four of my SSN, but she said that is what they have on file. Also the address they have on file for me is from 7 years ago and she wanted me to give her my current address, which I refused. I then asked her who the original debtor is and she said it should show the name of the hospital on the screen next to 'Original Creditor ' but that information is not present. I told her their claim of my owing {$430.00} to an unknown party doesn't seem legit and that I plan to report them to the FTC. I then ended the call.
