Fraudulent Activity and Violation of Privacy Rights by XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding significant violations of my rights by the credit reporting agencies XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX. I believe these agencies have engaged in fraudulent activity by violating my right to privacy, sharing false and misleading information about me, and reporting erroneous accounts on my credit report.

This not only constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) but also represents a breach of my right to privacy, as my personal information has been handled and shared improperly. I request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter promptly and take the necessary actions to ensure these fraudulent and inaccurate accounts are removed from my credit report. I am also requesting that the CFPB ensure that XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX comply with their legal obligations to protect consumers privacy and accurately report credit information.

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE (MO)

In XX/XX/2022, Barclays permitted someone to access my online account and change my password and mailing address without notifying me. Fraudulent charges were made in Ohio in the amount of {$1300.00} on XX/XX/2022. I notified Barclays and after several months of trying to resolve this, they advised me that chip technology was used, and that I am responsible for the charges. I have not been in Ohio since the early XXXX and the card has remained in my possession. I have witnesses that will sign an affidavit that I was in XXXX XXXX, MO on XX/XX/XXXX. The only way the chip technology could have been used in OH is if Barclays issued a credit card to the imposter they allowed to access my account. To date, I have been unable to resolve this situation. I want my accounts closed with Barclays ; the charges removed ; and any negative reports to the credit bureaus expunged. I have notified the XXXX and the Office of the Attorney General in XXXX. I have a complete record of all of my correspondence.

My name is XXXX XXXX, I was not a person who believes in using credit cards and I always used debit as a primary payment method. Until recently my wife and I are planning on buying a house, so I checked my credit report and realized I have been a victim of identity theft for many years. I found two fraudulent accounts, one is a charge off from XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX in the amount of {$11000.00}, the other is an account in collection by XXXX XXXX XXXX originated from XXXX in the amount of {$4500.00}. Additionally, there's also two fraudulent hard inquires from XXXX XXXX and XXXX. 

It is a grave mistake on my part to not close guard my credit as seriously as I should, until it became a giant road block on my path to finally become a homeowner and realizing my American dream. Identity theft has put me in a very tough situation, I hope we can get the fraudulent activities off my credit report as soon as possible. 

Thank you, XXXX XXXX

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc. (CA)

Comenity Capital Bank abruptly stopped reporting to credit bureaus in XX/XX/XXXX. I use this card once a year and pay it off immediately, Ive had a zero balance since XX/XX/XXXX. As a result of their negligence, my credit score dropped in XX/XX/XXXX Showing I was 120 days late. I called and was told nothing can be done until I demanded to speak to a supervisor. The rep got angry but eventually transferred me. The supervisor said it would be fixed in 10 days and I got a letter from them admitting it. My score went back up. In XX/XX/XXXX they did the same exact thing showing I was 180 Days late. I called again and talked to 2 more people and got another admitting it but this time I was told It would take 90 days to fix. I disputed XXXX  credit agencies. In XXXX they did it again but went back 7 months. My credit score in falling rapidly. As a result I cant apply for a car loan for my business. I called again and they just shrugged their shoulders. I disputed it again with credit agencies who said my dispute was complete but it would take 45 days to fix. Im afraid Comenity will keep going back further and further claiming late payments. I have zero recourse. My business is suffering. My employees are suffering. Ive never been late with any payment and had a good credit score before this. Comenity refuses to help. This is the type of thing that causes financial ruin for responsible credit users. Even if I cancel this card I will get further penalized for having fewer cards. I filed with the XXXX  but I havent heard anything back. Please help.

Company: SANTANDER BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (VA)

Santander Bank has caused my husband ( XXXX XXXX ) and I ( XXXX XXXX ) harm by reporting information on our credit reports for late payments on XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX due to an error caused by Santander Bank. 

Here is what XXXX team issues that have harmed my family credit history : -Inaccurately calculated our mortgage escrow analysis using the 3 year amount on my hazard insurance versus the annual amount causing a shortage to our mortgage escrow account. Our monthly mortgage payment went from {$3100.00} monthly to {$4400.00} XXXX never updated my new address or phone information when a request to change address was sent on my XX/XX/XXXX statement. 

-Due to this inaccurate contact information I was not aware my mortgage payment had changed due to escrow payment increases. As my bank recurring payment was set to a {$3900.00} ( included monthly mortgage of {$3100.00} and additional payment toward principle of XXXX ), XXXX reported my husband XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX as XXXX on 4 months dropping our credit score from XXXX to XXXX. 

-We were paying {$760.00} monthly extra principle however due to escrow errors none of this was applied to my principal which cause more interest to compound. 

-After my letter to XXXX XXXX XXXX issued a refund check of roughly {$13000.00} of overage on my XXXX account which is proof of their inaccurate escrow analysis. 

XXXX Bank has cause harm to my family due to unfair and deceptive practices. We will be disputing these with credit bureaus however it is likely our credit history has been harmed for the next 7 years. 

Please hold them accountable for harming customers as these escrow analysis errors should have been caught. Additionally servicing practices of not updating customer information causing irreparable damage.
