It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA, you are required by law to remove & block any items which is found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ).

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NY)

After years of having a credit score around XXXX and not applying for new cards or loans I suddenly saw my credit score go down on XXXX and Experian as a result of inquiries and accounts they listed that I never requested and have no knowledge of. All three credit bureaus have fraudulent accounts and inquiries listed, as well as incorrect addresses. I've subsequently found out through the XXXX Date Breach Settlement website that my information was impacted by the XXXX data breach of XX/XX/XXXX, which I believe is the source of the identity theft and fraud that I have experienced these past few years. 

XXXX As of XX/XX/XXXX XXXX has an inquiry listed as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX from XX/XX/XXXX that I never applied for and a collection for {$1500.00} from XX/XX/XXXX by XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX with whom I have never had any dealings. 

Experian- Experian has the same fraudulent XXXX XXXX XXXX as well as a fraudulent XXXXXXXX XXXX  credit card account opened on XXXX XXXX XXXX  with an {$8000.00} credit limit of which I have no knowledge. They also list an installment account for {$380.00} with XXXX, another company that I have not dealt with in 20 years, and nine different credit inquiries dating from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX that are fraudulent as I have not applied for any credit cards or loans during that period. 

XXXX XXXX has a different XXXX account listed that was opened fraudulently on XXXX XXXX XXXX  as well as an inquiry by a company called XXXX XXXX for credit for which I never applied. 

I have spent a great deal of time trying to contact these companies, who all seem to make it difficult or impossible to actually speak with someone who can correct these issues. XXXX company did an " investigation '' and determined that their information on the fraudulent account was correct ; they never spoke with me, apparently they only spoke with the thieves who opened the account. I am in the process of getting a police report as required by XXXX to look into their fraud, and that has been another time consuming, red-tape filled endeavor. On the whole these companies seem to make it easy for crooks to steal identities and open accounts and very hard for consumers to clean up the mess that they create.

I have been out of the country for personal reasons for a few months and I wasn't able to manage my banking account. I didn't realize that a claim I filed was refused due to the rep at the bank filing the claim wrong. So the credit from the bank was taken away sending my account into a negative balance. When I returned home to XXXX  last week I got an insurance check for my phone being stolen and I deposited it into my savings account. I have my overdraft protection turned off. So when I went to withdraw funds money was missing. The check was for {$1000.00} and there was only {$490.00} in my account. I called and I was told that due to my account being a few days from charge off, it was an automated system that transfered the funds to protected the banks interest. I've worked for a bank before and I completely understand what happen. I did let them know I had funds set to hit the account the day before closing and due to the nature of my emergency I was due back out of the country in less then XXXX hours and needed the funds. I asked for the funds to be returned and for them to allow the pending deposit to fix the error and they completely refused.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (CO)

I heard, through a friend, about a promotional offer from Wells Fargo. The offer stated that Wells Fargo was offering a {$250.00} cash bonus when you set up a new " XXXX Checking Account ''. I went to my local branch located at : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX CO XXXX After meeting with a banker I was told that they did not have any way to honor the offer, but that I should come back in one week and they would be able to do so. Instead I went online to set up the account, following all the instructions on Wells Fargo 's offer page for this promotion ( https : //www.wellsfargo.com/XXXX I then received an email that my application had been successfully received -- this email also included instructions for the bonus offer. After five days of waiting I had not heard anything else from Wells Fargo regarding my new account, so I called their customer service line for clarification. I was informed by a representative that I did not qualify for the promotion since I had not received an individualized email offer code for this particular promotion, even though such requirement was never mentioned once on their offer page, or in the confirmation email, or indeed at any time during the application process. 

It really seems like Wells Fargo put out a promotion to earn new customers without any intention of honoring that promotion. I would never have set up this checking account if not for this special offer. I feel completely duped. This seems a clear case of false advertising to me.

XXXX keeps sending a balance to a collection agency, but insurance already paid it. This has gone on since XX/XX/XXXX. A year later, XX/XX/XXXX, I filed a grievance with our XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX complaining about this on-going issue ( 2 yrs now ), in which the insurance company wrote back on XX/XX/XXXX stating the collection agency would be notified and all would be handled. However, XX/XX/XXXX we received yet another collection bill for {$520.00}. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX and spoke with XXXX, a representative. She spoke with the collection agency that this matter was already resolved. They instructed her to call XXXX because that 's who 's submitting the information for collection. XXXX spoke with XXXX at XXXX while I was on the line. After " investigating '' everything for almost an hour, XXXX had all the necessary paperwork showing the insurance took care of it so this issue should 've been resolved and that XXXX, my husband XXXX XXXX, should never receive a bill because of the type of coverage we have. XXXX assured us that this was handled. However, in XXXX XXXX we received yet another collection bill for {$250.00} with XXXX of the last transactions from the previous collections statement. On XX/XX/XXXX I spoke with XXXX XXXX XXXX about this issue AGAIN. She investigated, contacted the collections department and XXXX and said that all should be good. I just called the collections agency today, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, to verify the status and found out they still show a balance {$250.00}. I then called XXXX to find out what was going on in which their system showed we have a XXXX balance. XXXX said they would forward the information to the collection agency and for me to call back tomorrow to verify if all is cleared, but refused to send me anything in writing that this matter is resolved. Meanwhile, my husband ca n't order any needed supplies ( we can order, but they wo n't ship it ) because in the " system '' we 're in collections. My husband has had to XXXX when they 're supposed to be updated regularly. XX/XX/XXXX XXXX with XXXX forced an order of supplies, but now our authorization has expired because of all this aggravating miscommunication between XXXX and their collection agency. I think this is unacceptable and the aggravation my husband and I have had to endure since XX/XX/XXXX because XXXX ca n't get their act together has led to this formal complaint. My husband is a XXXX and should n't have to XXXX, etc. I am hoping an investigation can be conducted in this completely outrageous situation so XXXX will be held accountable for the additional stress this company has put us through for 2 years!!!

Company: EVERBANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (FL)

My wife and I were denied a mortgage by EverBank because they would not consider her employment income while using their " asset depletion '' income calculations associated with my savings and retirement accounts. Our FICO scores were in excess of XXXX ; my requested loan amount was only XXXX % of the property value. My income was computed under their " asset depreciation '' computation ( they used only about XXXX % annually of my cash and other liquid assets for qualification and my liquid assets are XXXX times my loan request! ). They refused to consider my wife 's ( and co-applicant ) salary to qualify us for the loan. My wife has been teaching at the same place for more than XXXX years and has no plans to retire. This is blatant age discrimination! EverBank said that it is their underwriting policy to not consider a co-borrower 's income if they utilize retirement income under their " asset depletion '' for another co-borrower. Obviously, this is not only ridiculous but it has a disparate effect on older credit applicants because they surely more likely to be retired.
