Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (CA)

I am filing a complaint regarding XXXX XXXX  denial of my dispute for a charge of {$42.00} made by XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/year>. 

I had repeatedly attempted to cancel my XXXX service, including emails sent to the merchant on XX/XX/year>, and XX/XX/year>, and mid/late XXXX by calling requesting the cancellation. Despite these emails, the service was not officially canceled until XX/XX/year>. The information provided on how to cancel were not available or an option to cancel via online. Prior to that, the merchant did not process my cancellation requests, and their system did not provide an option to cancel, as indicated in their email responses.

Capital One denied my dispute, claiming the merchant had not received a cancellation request. However, I have proof of my attempts to cancel the service well before the charge occurred. I request the {$42.00} be refunded and that no further charges be applied to my account for this service.

Despite the multiple previous written requests, the unverified accounts listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditor documentation on file to verify that this information is 100 % true, accurate & correct.

In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigation ( s ), you stated in writing that you verified that these accounts are being reported correctly? Who verified these accounts? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, you have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). Please be advised that under Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to ... promptly CORRECT or DELETE all information which can not be verified.

Section 616 and Section 617 provide me with a remedy which Im about to seek. You are willful non-complying with the FCRA.

Since you claim youve verified the accounts listed below I wanted to confirm my thoughts and contacted the banks directly. They did not provide me with any verifiable proof. So, my question comes up again, WHO VERIFIED THESE ACCOUNTS? I believe you have not verified these accounts based on Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & I will be seeking a legal remedy.

Please CORRECT the account, or inaccurate information, from my file immediately XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. 

I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (TX)

I noticed that my credit report was not correct in listing my name correctly. 
There were also credit accounts that are on my report listed that were closed, but still reporting. I have contacted the companies and asked them to remove the information, however they continue to report the wrong information. Finally, I reported the companies to the fraud and identity theft because they will not comply with my demands to remove the information that is incorrect on my credit report. This incorrect information is causing difficulty in me applying for a mortgage. Without this negative information being removed, I am forced to take a higher percentage rate for financing my mortgage, which is totally unfair. I know that if any creditor reports my information incorrectly, it must be removed from my account. Since my information was included in the data breach, all information that is incorrect has to be removed from my account.

A month ago, I submitted a complaint to these Bureaus, but the incorrect information on my report is still there. I haven't heard back from them, aside from your notification that the company has replied to my complaint. How can I trust that they've properly investigated the inaccuracies? What steps did they take to verify the accounts? This entire situation is really frustrating, especially since it's been over 30 days since I filed my complaint.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report.

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.
