XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, which also does business as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX, is a debt collection agency located in XXXX, New York who was, or claimed to have, a couple of accounts for my company. We negotiated settlement offers and fulfilled one to the agreed amount. The other was still in negotiation, but the two contracts were separate. The one contract was paid in full per settlement on XXXX XX/XX/2021 after which documentation for the vehicle purchased was supposed to be sent. No communication was received from them for months until I reached out to them to ask what was going on when I was told that they closed the accounts because of no communication from us, that no settlement was agreed upon or in place and that there is nothing more for them to do. So they stole our money claiming to settle an account and now we don't have our money or the paperwork to properly maintain and register the vehicle purchased under that settlement.

Since XX/XX/2022 I have sent TransUnion 4 letters regarding incorrect personal information and identified FCRA Violations and Non METRO2 Compliance. After reviewing my credit report almost 3 months later I became aware that no changes have been made and there have not received any investigation results. According to 15 U.S. Code 1681i TransUnion is supposed to delete the disputed items during a full and complete investigation. TransUnion violated this federal law. TransUnion is still furnishing information without my consent. That is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681b. I have never given TransUnion to furnish anything on my consumer report. 15 U.S. Code 1681n lets me know that any person who willfully fails to comply will be responsible for actual damages up to { {$1000.00} } per violation. Please note that I will not hesitate to file a suit against TransUnion for willfully and knowingly violating my consumer rights if this is not rectified within 15 days.

XXXXXXXX XXXX, a large national bank contacted a primary account holding on a checking account in XX/XX/2021 about a possible fraudulent check written on the account. The check was confirmed by the account holder to be fraudulent and an identity theft dispute was initiated, acknowledged, and accepted. Four months later the bank has not returned the money to the account. The checking account was tied to a reserve line of credit. The bank 's internal processes covered the overdrafts by drawing on the LOC. The bank then knowingly reported to all credit reporting agencies the balance of the LOC tied to a known and acknowledged identity theft matter for four consecutive months ( XXXX XXXX ). The account was a joint account with the XXXX-aged account holder and XXXX adult children. The bank reported the account past due in XX/XX/2021, which severely negatively impacted all four joint account owners. The Fair Credit Reporting Act states : " Your creditor must not supply information to a CRA that it knows ( or should know ) is inaccurate. That includes : supplying credit information on an account where identity theft was previously reported ( or failing to maintain a reasonable procedure for you to report identity theft ). " Common violations of the FCRA by a creditor or other information furnisher include failing to : notify every CRA involved that you dispute the debt submit corrected information to the CRA subsequent to investigating your dispute refrain from continuing to submit information that it knows ( or should know ) is incorrect.

My husband and I applied for a mortgage with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/2022. On the same day, our credit report was pulled with our permission. 

However, on XX/XX/2022, XXXX XXXX pulled our credit again WITHOUT our consent or awareness. The XXXX XXXX lender admitted to this error and agreed that it was an unauthorized pull. We were informed that they submitted a request to remove this hard inquiry on XX/XX/2022. Upon further investigation, we learned that they did not submit this request until we continued to follow-up and complain about their lack of response on XX/XX/2022 ( XXXX reference XXXX XXXX ). However, they only submitted it to XXXX ( not Experian or XXXX ), and only for me, not for my husband. 

To date, and thanks to our own action, Experian and XXXX have removed it from my credit history, but neither have removed it from not my husband 's. XXXX has not removed it from either of our credit histories. 

We are requesting that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX perform their due diligence in resolving their mistake and request removal of this hard inquiry pull from all three credit bureaus for BOTH my husband and me. 

Attached is the email communications with the XXXX representative admitting that this was in fact an UNAUTHORIZED hard inquiry pull.

Issue: Credit monitoring or identity theft protection services — Problem canceling credit monitoring or identify theft protection service
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (NC)

Since XXXX XXXX XXXX has been charging my Bank of America account, I tried to cancel in XXXX but apparently the person I spoke with did not do their job. I have also been charged at different times of the month instead of on a consistent date each month which made this harder to monitor their scam. The company also doesnt allow cancellation by email so theres no proof that I called a year ago. This should be illegal. Today they did give me a confirmation number but I dont trust them. To my knowledge I never received a refund of their fraudulent ways back in XXXX. I requested a refund for just the past year and was told they dont refund. They claim its a service for the past month on this months withdrawal. Im not expecting you to do much with this but I wanted an extra layer of protection in event they didnt cancel today. They have made way too much money off me as even their price adds up over 11 years.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (OH)

I have numerous accounts on my credit that mostly XXXX is reporting incorrectly but also a few on XXXX and Experian. 
The first is a public record that is hindering my ability to qualify for credit. XXXX is around 60 points lower than my XXXX and Experian score due to the fact that they are still reporting a bankruptcy that was filed in XXXX. It was removed from Experian and XXXX in XXXX of XXXX. I have disputed it twice since then and it is still reporting. 

The second issue is in regards to all three credit bureaus. They are all reporting my XXXX XXXX  XXXX TWICE per account. I have 4 accounts and they are reporting 8 times ( two per account ). The account is current and reporting accurately as current and then also reporting a second time as negative which is it not. In XXXX into XXXX I did a rehabilitation program to bring these accounts out of delinquency and instead of updating the accounts and reporting them accurately, it now appears I have 8 student loan accounts when I have 4 and only 4. 

The third issue is XXXX XXXX is posting as a negative account when A ) it is too old to be reporting and B ) I paid this account off in XXXX to a collection agency prior to purchasing my home. The issue here is that all the way up to XX/XX/XXXX, they are reflecting missed payments when this was sent to a collection agency and settled two years ago. 

The fifth issue is The XXXX XXXX XXXX  which is also posted as a negative account. This account as well is too old to report. It was also paid off to a collection agency in XXXX prior to purchasing my home and it still reporting missed payments up to XX/XX/XXXX. It has been paid for over two years. 

The last issue is XXXX XXXX. I have dealt with nothing but issue with this company since the getgo. The date of delinquency is incorrect. It was settled prior to purchasing my home in XXXX and it was supposed to be removed. When you speak to their company they are rude and hard to deal with. One person tells you one thing, another tells you something else.

All of these issues are affecting my credit and I have tried for two years now to have my credit report reflect accurate information. I have worked hard to redeem my credit, make all payments on time and opened my own business over a year ago and because of these errors on my report am constantly denied credit when I should be credit worthy.

This is my last attempt at correcting it myself before getting an attorney involved.

Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (TX)

I recently purchased a new Air Conditioner ( Compressor/Condensor/coil unit ). The company installing the unit had a financing arrangement with Synchrony Bank.

Sychrony Bank sent me a statement and urged me to set up online access and payment through the Sychrony Bank webpage. As is common with credit cards, payments are due on a specified date - and if " received '' or said to be received after that date the credit card compnay begins impsoing a series of fees, interest rates and seeks to take advantage of unsuspecting customers.

I made payments through the Sychrony webpage well in advance of a due date. Only because I happened to review my account did I discover that Synchrony suddenly refused my payments, despite representing earlier that the payments were properly credited. 

This sure looks like criminal fraud.
