Filed complaint about Chex system about their investigation and with bank account. They keep stating about bank account abuse etc. My credit was being used fraudulent and have been fighting this for over 10 or more years due a breach by the federal government. Chex system and creditors have been supplied with information. I have obtained police reports, FTC Identity Theft Reports and letters. Chex system needs to delete the items listed on my report as soon as possible. Im in receipt of an attorney willing to file complaints with The Eastern District of District Court for Violations of Chex System and XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. Nobody is supplying information to confirm that I had accounts. They havent even submitted a valid signature card. I have had my current bank since I started working with the government. I have always used XXXX XXXX and a credit union. 

I also do not want to deal with XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX and only with the original creditor. I have that right because I have no dealings with XXXX XXXX XXXX. I keep seeing that they states that a signature card was sent but it hasnt been sent plus it is impossible for them to have something signed by me because I have signed anything.
