Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE (PA)

I have a credit card from BARCLAYS BANK account # XXXX, and I have always made my payments on time. For some reason, I realized that there was a late payment on my credit report, I called BARCLAYS BANK and they said their system mistakenly put me on paperless billing, which I did not request, and it caused my 30 day late. As you can see, I have always had a stellar payment record. I tried contacting XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and BARCLAYS BANK with no successful resolution. XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX reporting me 30 days late in in XX/XX/2021. There was an error on their part. I was never 30 days late.

In my previous letters, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX XXXX data breach as well as XXXX 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

See attached!! The Credit bureaus stated my account was properly investigated but how is that possible if the open date is inaccurate, the date last active is inaccurate, last verified inaccurate and date last reported is not accurate. Some accounts are showing open and some are showing closed status. The account is in charge off status but still showing a balance this is a tax fraud because this alleged debt has been written off on the companies profit/loss statement and I have not received a form 1099c and are trying to collect on an alleged debt twice. This is grounds for removal they also violated my rights under 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. According FCRA guidelines information furnished on consumer reports have to be 100 % accurate across on all 3 credit reporting agencies or the account has to be removed from my consumer report as this constitutes fraud.

In XX/XX/2022, I sent a letter to the courthouse listed on my credit report asking if they report bankruptcies to the credit bureaus. I received a letter back stating that they do not report any bankruptcies to any credit bureaus. 

At the same time, I sent a letter to Transunion explaining to them that I am the victim of identity theft, and asked them to verify the accuracy of the bankruptcy ( Type of Account : BANKRUPTCY XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX Case Number : XXXX ) that is listed on my credit report, as I do not recognize the information. Last month, I received a letter back from Transunion stating that they verified the bankruptcy information that is displaying on my credit report. 

I demand to know how Transunion verified the bankruptcy as 100 % accurate and as belonging to me. They never did a fair investigation according to the 15 USC 1681 to ensure that the information reporting truly belongs to me.

15 USC 1681 section 603 ( 3 ) ( E ) States : The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. 

They also violated my rights numerous times. 

The credit bureaus violated my given rights under 15 USC 1681.

According to : 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States I have the right to privacy.

According to : 15 U.S.C 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written instructions According to : 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.

This inaccurate information reporting on my credit report is negatively impacting my ability to get a job and provide for my children. I am attaching the correspondence I had with Transunion and the courthouse, as well as copies of my previous and current credit reports. I am also attaching the correspondence I received back from the Courthouse listed on my credit report, and the tracking information from the dates I wrote to Transunion asking them to investigate the Bankruptcy information on my credit report. I am also attaching copies of my identity so that Transunion can identify me fully as the person disputing this information.

I am submitting this complaint about XXXX credit reporting agency. I recently submitted a dispute with them in regards to my XXXX  mastercard. It is marked on my credit report that I was more than 30 days late ( which is incorrect ). Today XX/XX/2020 I received a report with the investigation results. It shows my previous activity then shows the results after the dispute. ( They are the same ) yet it notes that there were some changes. Due to some work loss being laid off from work due to the corona virus I had lost some work. My company had closed. I immediately contacted XXXX XXXX and advised them if they can work something out with me as far as payments till I return to work. I was told I can participate in a 3 month program where my interest rate will be lowered and my payments would be lowered. I stressed over and over that I don't want this to be reported to the creditors as late I was assured it would not be as long as I made the monthly payment. I even made more than what I had to make. I am still be marked as 30 days late. Which in turn is affecting my credit score in a very negative way. I contacted XXXX XXXX and told them the issue and was advised again that the 30 remark would be removed and corrected and was given an apology for the error. It was never removed. I was then told dispute it with XXXX  again. Well trying to submit a dispute online I can't do. There website keeps coming up with error message. I am upset that due to national disaster and loosing work affected my credit score like this.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Shellpoint Partners, LLC (NJ)

On XX/XX/2020 I received a response ( see " CFPB Response XXXX '' attached ) from New Rez LLC detailing the closing disbursements of my mortgage on XXXX. Noticeably, however, is the fact that New Rez " Intentionally '' did not include pages 2 and 3 of the Closing Disclosure ( CD ) which shows " Other Costs ''. Included in Other Costs were disbursements made for tax and insurance escrows that were also paid at the time of closing. So not only did the lender pay current taxes and insurance that were due, but they also dispersed escrows for future taxes ( {$3200.00} ) and insurance ( {$1700.00} ) that were also deducted from loan proceeds. The tax escrows represented 2 months worth, while the insurance escrow represented 6 months worth of future payments. I have included all 3 pages of the CD for confirmation ( see " Closing Disclosure_XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX '' attached ) to document these facts. 

Since my first payment, which was due XXXX I have made every monthly payment which includes the mortgage of {$6700.00} and escrows for taxes and insurance of {$1900.00} as required in the CD. Given these facts, it is impossible that New Rez should have ever claimed that I was behind in escrow payments. Secondly, as stated in an earlier complaint, there is no projections for tax increases as the City of XXXX only reassess or increase taxes upon changes in use or improvements ; this is confirmed by the City of XXXX. I invite anyone who reads this to please call the City of XXXX to verify ( XXXX ). It should also be noted that New Rez also made payments to the wrong city ( XXXX XXXX ) for {$4800.00} that also had to be recovered. 

Ignoring the facts, New Rez has increased my taxes without authority or proper rationale to do so. Based on the facts, I have requested that New Rez change my monthly total payments for tax and insurance to {$1900.00} as per my loan agreement. Moreover, I have requested to pay my tax and insurance payments to the city and insurance carrier directly. What New Rez has done shows that they are a fraud, not trustworthy and that they are conducting business in an unethical way.
