I am not able to access my credit report/score from the TransUnion App/Website. The site keeps telling me I'm blocked and that I should contact/email a someone that does not align with the credit company. This makes no sense. 
I received a letter from XXXX on behalf of XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX??? saying my personal information had been compromised. This led me to the TransUnion site which is not accessible. They also are pushing the " Credit Lock '' like XXXX for {$29.00}. You must really work to find the disclosure that a Credit Freeze will do the same thing. It is wrong that my finances should rely on such a reporting agency that access to me is denied!

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (CA)

I have contacted the reporting agency numerous times regarding my consumer report and accounts on it that were not authorized by me. There are numerous violations of federal law, the FCRA. Pursuant to 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 1 ), congress made clear findings that my consumer report must be fair and accurate to me, the consumer. The reporting agencies have assumed the vital role in assembling and evaluating consumer credit, on their own. By law, pursuant to 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ), consumer reporting agencies have grave responsibilities of fairness, impartiality and respect the consumers ' right to privacy. My right to privacy has been infringed upon, and I have never given up my right to privacy, nor did I authorize them to report any information on my consumer report. The erroneous and fraudulent reporting on the reporting agencies ' part has caused me financial harm and adverse action against me. I have never given Experian, XXXX or XXXX consent to report any accounts on my consumer file, making this aggravated Identity Theft. All three agencies are also guilty of conspiring with these companies to violate my federally protected rights. Pursuant to 15 USC 1681 ( c ) ( a ), information excluded from consumer reports ( b ) no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information ( 5 ) any other adverse information. Any harmful, inaccurate account furnished to my consumer report is an adverse action.

In XXXX of 2022, a check I had written was stolen by a third party after it was mailed. The check was rewritten for a higher amount and the Pay To field was changed. BMO cleared this check and the money was removed from my account. I noticed this on my online account management within 24 hours and contacted them. I was told I needed to come to a branch in person to file a report. I did so on XX/XX/2022, and was told the claim had been filed and I could expect to have my money returned to my account within 1-2 months. It has now been nearly a year. Every time I contact the banker who assisted me, XXXX XXXX, I am told that the claim is still in process. Now he has stopped responding to my emails. I need my money back that was taken from my account because they cashed a check that had been altered.

To whom it may concern. 

On XX/XX/XXXX I was checking my credit as I regularly do and noticed one of my scores was XXXX -- that would be a 30 % decrease in my score in a matter of months with XXXX activity on my part. 

Upon review, it turns out that a XXXX Infinity was purchased and ultimately repossessed, auctioned and sold. The account, charged off. That charge off is what is on my credit along with the late payments from the auto. 

With that, XXXX shows an account # XXXX in my name XXXX XXXX and my ssn but not my Idaho address. The account shows at : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX CA XXXX Please remove and repair my credit report to the good standing it has been for 22 years. 

Thank you.

My wife and I attempted to transfer {$200000.00} from our KeyBank savings account to a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  account on XXXX via a KeyBank Official Check ( copy attached ). On XXXX XX/XX/2023 we received a letter ( copy attached ) from XXXX XXXX informed us that our account was on temporary hold : Confidential information that check may not be paid. In a XXXX XX/XX/2023 letter XXXX XXXX states : Reason for hold on deposit : Confidential information that check may not be paid by the paying bank. It appears from the letter that XXXX XXXX XXXX  is stating that KeyBank for some confidential reason may not be paying the check, however we request that KeyBank investigate and provide details and clarification why the check was not paid. After all we paid {$8.00} to have this check processed by KeyBank and a very large sum of money was subsequently held from us for an unreasonable period of time. There is absolutely no reason why this information should be " confidential ''. 
CFPB closed complaint " with explanation '' however KeyBank failed to provide copies of the referenced documents that were to be part of KeyBank 's response.

Company: FIFTH THIRD FINANCIAL CORPORATION (FL)

I unexpectedly lost my job in XXXX and I contacted Fifth Third Bank in XXXX to discuss mortgage relief options. 
I requested mortgage relief assistance on XX/XX/2023 from FifthThirdBank I called the phone number and was told to apply online. 
I uploaded the form online and my mortgage relief application was closed on XX/XX/XXXX  No one contacted me or told me why it was closed or what additional information is needed to continue with the mortgage relief assistance program. 

I contacted the support via messaging and they told me that I had never applied and there is no application open and that I need to apply again. 

I called the support phone number again they said the same thing that I had never applied and no application is pending and then proceeded to give me circular answers that I need to call and check on it while the application is open. There is no record of alerts, messages or any information regarding my application status, it was closed without any notes or details. 

None of this makes sense, I am not being provided with proper guidance or assistance and from my perspective they are closing my application, not telling me why and not providing assistance during the application process.
