I am submitting this complaint to report inaccurate and fraudulent information appearing on my credit report as a result of being a victim of identity theft and XXXX XXXX. Despite my attempts to rectify these inaccuracies, the reporting agency has failed to address and remove the fraudulent accounts and unauthorized inquiries. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a formal dispute letter to XXXX, outlining the fraudulent accounts that were opened in my name without my consent. These include : XXXX XXXX XXXX {$600.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX- {$950.00} XXXX XXXX {$15000.00} ( Repossession ) XXXX XXXX XXXX {$2100.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX {$1800.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX {$2000.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX {$940.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX {$7700.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX {$62.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX {$280.00} In addition to these accounts, there were several unauthorized credit inquiries made without my consent, which I requested to be removed. These inquiries include : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Despite providing evidence and documentation to support my claims, XXXX has not taken the appropriate action to block or remove these accounts from my credit report as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). This law mandates that adverse information resulting from identity theft and XXXX XXXX must be blocked once it has been documented. 

I am seeking immediate assistance from the CFPB to ensure that my rights under the FCRA and other consumer protection laws are upheld. I request that these fraudulent accounts and unauthorized inquiries be permanently removed from my credit report, and I be provided with a corrected credit report reflecting these changes. Furthermore, I would like XXXX to provide a written response detailing the steps they have taken to investigate and resolve this matter. 

Thank you for your attention to this complaint. I look forward to your assistance in resolving this issue.

XXXX XXXXXXXX must acknowledge that the debt being reported on my consumer report is not only inaccurate but also fundamentally flawed in its premise. The alleged obligation reflects a misunderstanding of the underlying relationship and the nature of the account ending in XXXX. As the agent acting on behalf of the principal, I hold a legitimate interest in the application, which serves as the original collateral securing the account. This account was established based on my authenticated application, making it clear that I can not owe a debt on an account created through my own credit investment. Instead, I am owed consideration for the principal 's interest, which exists within the account. 
It is essential to recognize that I, XXXX XXXX XXXX as agent for the principalam entitled to subrogation rights for choosing to allocate my credit to XXXX  XXXX over its competitors. Rather than breaching trust, obscuring the true intent of the agreement, and issuing deceptive billing statements for the sake of unjust enrichmentXXXX XXXX XXXX should act with transparency and honesty. This transparency is critical to allowing consumers to make informed decisions about their financial engagements. 
In essence, XXXX XXXXXXXX has been profiting twicefirst from the consumer 's credit and then from their ignorance of the true nature of the transaction. This practice is not only a breach of trust but also a clear case of unjust enrichment. Congress enacted the " Holder in Due Course Rule '' ( 12 CFR 433.2 ) to protect consumers from precisely this kind of exploitation, ensuring that financial institutions can not separate their profit motives from their obligation to act in good faith. XXXX XXXX has a duty to repair all damages caused by their willfully and knowingly intent to take what truly did NOT lawfully belong to them. To take something from a customer that he or she had no knowledge of owning is still theft. The agreement is in fine print and very lengthy for this purpose. Obligations of the United States are being settled as agreed, the shame is most of the American people are not aware of it. Use the Principal 's interest to settle the alleged debt and return the payments made by the agent back to the agent as outlined in 15 USC 1615. Remove all the derogatory information from the Principal 's ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) consumer report. XXXX XXXX 's use of my credit as collateral effectively grants them a usufruct, allowing them to benefit from my assets while I, as the rightful owner, should retain the underlying rights and interests associated with them.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated. They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

In accordance with the Fair Reporting Act, XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX, has once again violated my rights. I understand according to federal law 15 U. S. code 1681a ( 2 ) ( A1 ), a consumer report does not include information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the payment. I also understand that according to federal law 15 U. S. code 1666b ( a ), a creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose. It is my knowledge that the creditor failed to furnish me with a statement 21 days prior, which ought to render any ramification of late payments regarding the linked accounts.

I discovered unauthorized inquiries on my credit report today, which I can not explain. I check my report regularly, and now, out of nowhere, these issues have surfaced. I refreshed my browser multiple times, thinking it might be an error, but nothing changed. This is incredibly frustrating, and I demand that my documents be checked thoroughly, so I don't have to deal with this problem anymore.

I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

I'm sick and tired of filing complaints on here to Equifax and they are lying to me and to the CFPB. This is the second time I file a complaint about fraudulent inquiries on my credit report and they respond that those inquiries have been removed from my credit and are still there, now because they are not fixing it they blocked my account online. I will include screenshots of everything. If this doesn't get fixed right away I will hire a lawyer to sue Equifax. The report was on XX/XX/XXXX and still shows the inquiries.

I want to talk about the problem of an account that was mistakenly confirmed to be accurate on my credit report. No changes have been made, and the inaccurate data is still included in my report even after I submitted the papers that demonstrate the information is inaccurate. 

This inaction is a violation of 15 U.S.C. Section 1681i of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which requires you to remove or rectify erroneous information following a thorough investigation. I'm asking you to look into this again right away and either fix the information or take it off of my report.

I am writing to express my significant concern about inaccurate items reporting on my credit file. I have raised several complaints about this issue, despite my efforts the erroneous items continue to severely damage my credit file. It has caused every credit application for the past 2 years to be denied. According to 15 U.S.C.1681 Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) there should not be any damages on my credit report this is defamation to my character and I want to emphasize the severe financial and emotional distress that this negative rating has caused me for the past 2 years and will continue to cause until it is resolved.The information on my credit report was obtained without my consent. Pursuant to the Privacy Act of 1974 ( 5 U.S. Code 552a ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681 section 602 ), I did not authorize the release of my personal information or credit history to Experian, XXXX or XXXX. Additionally, I would like to bring to your attention that under the XXXX XXXX Transfer Act ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ), any financial institution is required to obtain written consent before sharing any sensitive information about an individual 's financial history. 
It has been well over a year since XXXX completed its investigation and removed these erroneous accounts in XXXX of XXXX XXXX has completed its investigation, including contacting the furnisher of the information. The results of the investigation were provided to XXXX and Experian in several complaints yet they both completely failed to conduct a proper investigation or comply with FCRA STANDARDS, entirely refusing to fix these issues, and continue to report inaccurate information to my credit file with actual knowledge of errors. This is a clear violation of my consumer rights, specifically Responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies ( 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ), Civil liability for willful noncompliance ( 15 U.S. Code 1681n ), and Civil liability for negligent noncompliance ( 15 U.S. Code 1681o ) I hope to restore the accuracy and integrity of my credit file so that I may regain control over my financial well-being. I sincerely urge you to give this matter your utmost attention and take swift action. Your cooperation and support in resolving this issue promptly would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your understanding and assistance. I ask that you remove this erroneous account from my credit report immediately. Account XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
