They stated my accounts were verified but how is that possible if they did not do a proper investigation according to the law. Also every piece of information on these accounts are still not reporting 100 % accurate. And according to the FCRA 15 USC 1681 everything has to be 100 % accurate. I have the credit report showing inaccuracies.

Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account — Transaction was not authorized
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (CA)

Chase Bank has been withdrawing checks meant for someone else 's account from my account. This issue has been pointed out to them, and Chase admitted that it was their mistake for withdrawing from the wrong account, but has not refunded my money. This has happened at least two times. Since this has happened several times, I believe that Chase is intentionally doing this to steal my money. 
On XX/XX/2022, an incorrect check # XXXX was withdrawn from my account for {$160000.00}. On XX/XX/2022, another incorrect check # XXXX, bearing the same Pay To name and signature, was withdrawn for {$18000.00}. Upon contacting Chase Bank, they said that the checks were withdrawn from the wrong account and provided a refund on XX/XX/2022 for {$18000.00}. However, to this day, they have not refunded check # XXXX for {$160000.00}. I did not notice the first check had not been refunded as well until XXXX, when I was checking over my old transactions. Chase has continuously refused to help me, stating that fraud cases must be filed within 30 days and it has been over 30 days since the transaction took place. However, this is not a fraud case. This is Chase Bank 's mistake. They have already previously acknowledged that the matter was their fault. Therefore, the 30 days clause should not apply. I have included pictures of the incorrect checks, along with pictures of the correct checks bearing the same check number ( which should not be possible ), that were withdrawn from my account. I have also included a screenshot of the check that was refunded as proof that Chase acknowledged it was their mistake that led to the incorrect withdrawal.

Product: Mortgage — VA mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage — 
Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc. (CO)

In XXXX of XXXX, I applied for a forbearance on my mortgage. In XXXX of XXXX, I contacted the mortgage company to end forbearance and apply for a modification of my mortgage. 
Initially, Mr. Cooper willfully misinterpreted my request and began to process a " partial claim. '' After requesting excessive documentation from me, they sent me a denial of my partial claim and cited VA guidelines as justification. 
I contacted the VA for guidance, and a helpful representative informed me that I need a modification, not a partial claim. Mr. Cooper should have been aware of this from the beginning and had no reason to fraudulently process a partial claim. 
Mr. Cooper then began to process a loan modification. They asked me for the same documentation as before, which I faithfully re-submitted. Then they asked me for the same documentation again. And again. 
To this date, I have nearly hundreds of e-mail requests for documentation, all of them identical. I have replied to each unique request, and in many cases, I have submitted repeat requests for documentation. However, Mr. Cooper shows no progress or intention to process my request for modification. Some of their requests have been truly impossible to procure, such as notarized and translated utility bills and tax information. 
It has been seven months since I began this process, and in that time, my delinquent balance has ballooned to an unmanageable amount. I fear that this balance will continue to grow until Mr. Cooper is forced to foreclose on me, because they are unwilling to process my modification in good faith. I have repeatedly offered to resume monthly payments to prevent the growth of my delinquent balance, but Mr. Cooper has rejected my attempts to make responsible loan repayment. 
I am attaching just one of these recent requests for documentation in conjunction with proof that I have submitted aforementioned documents. 
In summary : Mr. Cooper refuses to process my modification, repeated requests copies upon copies of previously submitted documentation, and refuses to accept monthly payments.

This complaint is against TD Bank located in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, RI XXXX. On the date of XX/XX/2022 I called via telephone Td banks customer service to file a claim in regards to my experience with their atm.

Having already counted the money and taking all necessary steps to make a deposit. I inserted a total of {$1000.00}. Specifically XXXX {$100.00} dollar bills. I heard the machine process the funds but amidst there was a software glitch. The atm spit out my card and swallowed my money leaving the screen white with no receipt for proof of deposit printed. Unaware of what to do next I called my mother and did as suggested. 

Back to the beginning, disputing the charges over the phone. Making a few phone calls in between, with the little time I had transitioning between school, home, and employment. I would contact customer service to be reassured every time that the investigation was being handled. XX/XX/2022 reviewing my account I would notice that a deposit of what I would presume be a provisional credit of {$1000.00}. 18 days later upon completion of their investigation I would find out the credit was reversed. Leaving my account overdraft. Left to dial customer service to speak to a rep and be told a letter was mailed dated XX/XX/2022 stating my claim was denied. There was no system error found. So back to square one re-opening an internal investigation. Stepping into the branch once again. Being spoken to in a way where theyre labeling me a hoax.

In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of these items. Your failure to positively verify these accounts and inquiries has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX NY XXXX Experian XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, TX XXXX REQUEST TO REMOVE UNAUTHORIZED CREDIT INQUIRY To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to dispute the following information in my file. I recently received a copy of my credit report, and I notice there is an unauthorized credit inquiry made by the company listed above. To my knowledge, I have not signed any documents authorizing the company in question to view my credit report. The listed inquiry was without authorization, and for no legitimate business purposes. As such, it is a very serious error in reporting. I never authorized such action, and this constitutes a violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act 604 as well as a violation of my rights to privacy. I am requesting your credit bureau to initiate an investigation and to determine responsible parties in this unauthorized credit inquiry. As part of your investigation, please send the names, business addresses, and phone numbers of those who made unauthorized credit inquiries so I may contact them directly. In addition, I respectfully request a copy of any documents authorizing credit inquiry, and signed on my behalf, so that I may verify its validity. If you find that I was not the one who authorized this inquiry, I ask that it be removed immediately from my credit file. Please be so kind as to forward me documentation that you have had the unauthorized inquiry removed. If you find that I am in error, then please send me proof of this. Finally, I am requesting an updated copy of my credit report, which should be sent to the address listed above.

I sent a letter to experian on XX/XX/2022 which I will include copies of with this complaint. They refuse to tell me how they verified the bankruptcy which I have the legal right to know how. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), Contractor is required by federal law to verify - through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract for any and all accounts you post on a credit report. i have yet to receive any proof from person that is reporting on my consumer report. Failure of doing this can be a cause of identity theft because anyone could be using my social security number and selling my information without my consent. So since they refuse to tell me how they verified this bankruptcy I am demanding it be removed unless they can show how they verified it. An automated system response is not physical verification.
