Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (IL)

I sent a request to investigate inaccurate accounts on my credit report on XX/XX/2023. It has been over 45 days since I sent my inquiry but still have not received a response. I am writing to formally bring to your attention a matter of utmost importance concerning my consumer rights under the provisions of 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. It has come to my attention that a consumer reporting agency has failed to comply with the statutory requirement to block the reporting of information resulting from alleged identity theft within the stipulated time frame of 4 business days. As of today, 30 days have passed since my initial request for the removal of these items, and I am deeply concerned about this violation of federal law. I am a victim of identity theft and have taken the necessary steps to dispute and rectify the fraudulent accounts on my credit report. However, despite the clear legal obligation imposed by 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2, the consumer reporting agency in question has not acted in accordance with the law to promptly delete this information from my file. This situation is not only causing me significant distress but also threatens my financial well-being. Furthermore, I would like to emphasize that I have never provided written consent to any consumer reporting agency to report the disputed items on my consumer report. This is a direct violation of my rights as a federally protected consumer. Identity theft itself constitutes a lack of consent, and it is imperative that these accounts be removed immediately. Under 15 U.S. Code 1681b, consumer reporting agencies are permitted to furnish consumer reports only under specific circumstances, and none of those circumstances apply in my case as I never granted written consent for the inclusion of these accounts in my report. Please treat this matter with the urgency it deserves, as it directly affects my rights and financial stability as a consumer. I trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will take swift and decisive action to rectify this situation. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your response and a swift resolution to this issue.

Issue: Trouble using your card — Can't use card to make purchases
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (MA)

I opened an account for a credit card with Bank of America in early XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. I received a mailed invitation that I was pre-qualified and to apply for one in the mail. The offer included an option to transfer existing credit card balances for 0 % interest rate until XXXX. I applied and included amount I wished to transfer ; I was approved. I received the card within a couple weeks and went to activate and was prompted to call in due to fraud concern, I immediately called and was cleared for activation and use. I downloaded the application on my phone and within a few days, I received another fraud alert and called in to clear this up. I was advised I was all set. I made a XXXX payment and when I tried to use the card in late XXXX, it was declined. I received a notice by mail XX/XX/XXXX that my card had been cancelled. My credit score was impacted, and I was not allowed to make payment on the balance that was transferred. I called the company on XX/XX/XXXX and was advised they cleared me for payment, but I would have to reapply for a new card. My credit score is lower because of this, and I do not want to do this. They said there is nothing they can do. I filed a complained and demanded this be investigated as I have done nothing wrong. I have not made any purchases and have made payment on time. I believe this to be a tactic with this bank to lure business in to get the transfer fee. The rep, XXXX told me that this happens to a lot of people. I simply want my original card reactivated, be allowed to pay off the debt and have my credit score restored to what it was previously. This is a deceitful business practice and predatory. The company must review their fraud processes and business systems. Their XXXX page has a multitude of complaints and I wish I would have been a smarter consumer and reviewed this. I would never have applied for this card had I known the consistent issues that I would be facing when dealing with this company. I am also unable to view any documents or history in my app.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (TX)

I am writing to demand the removal of inaccurate account reporting to my Consumer Report. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is reporting an account that is a violation of the law. I do not give consent, written instruction, permissible purpose, authority to disclose my private or financial information. The consumer reporting agencies have a grave responsibility to make sure reporting is accurate and legal this obligation has not been fulfilled in this matter. This is causing damage to my credit worthiness and is NOT an accurate reflection of me, my credit worthiness or my ability to make payments. This account has been paid, yet reporting derogatory in violation of the FCRA which assures maximum due diligence into reporting. 

This violation of my rights to privacy is very serious and does come with legal implications for all parties involved. I am giving in good faith opportunity to cure. Transactions and experiences are to be excluded from the report. I expect compliance with the law. All applicable state and federal laws and regulations should be upheld including but not limited to the FCRA, FDCPA, GLBA, FTCA. This is also a violation of the criminal and tax code. 

Rather than risk liability for the hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines, fees, and penalties for these violations on the creditor, data furnisher, reporting agencies. I simply ask that institutions act in accordance and remove this account and late payments. I am counting on compliance and rapid rescore to reflect my credit worthiness. I thank you for your time and attention to this issue. 

Have a blessed day.

In XXXX or XXXX I consolidated with my then husband during that small window when consolidation was, unfortunately, allowed. A year ago I divorced him because of XXXX XXXX. I also have a protective order stating that he's not even supposed to know where we're located. He was ordered in the divorce decree to pay that student loan. I understand that I signed the paperwork and that I'm also responsible for it. I'm in the process of working with legal aid to take him back to court to show he isn't paying. I have contacted Navient on numerous times trying to explain my situation so that I could personally apply for Income Based Repayment and they just tell me I have to have his consent and I must contact him. I have sent them copies of the protective order. The loan is getting ready to go into default which could also cause me to lose my XXXX XXXX and thus lose my only source of income for me and my children. I'm trying to take care of my responsibilities but Navient  will not even talk to me without me talking to him first ... .which is not allowed.
