My late husband had a credit card with XXXX XXXX XXXX and when he passed away I called them and what they did was turn the account over to me. I have never signed any papers saying I was on this account. When I would try to get infomation for my husband he always had to come to the phone and give me the ok to ask them questions that my husband had about his account. I asked XXXX XXXX XXXX to show me where I had signed any papers and they told me it was too long ago and they didnt have any records. They are runing my credit and I feel this should be taken off my credit reports. Thanks XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NV)

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 USC 1681, section 602 ( a ) emphasizes the importance of consumer reporting agencies acting responsibly with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for consumer privacy. TraXXXX, XXXX, and Experian are consumer reporting agencies, and as a consumer, I have the right to ensure that my private information is protected. This right is reinforced by 15 USC 6801, which mandates that financial institutions respect the privacy of their customers and protect the confidentiality of their nonpublic personal information. As per 15 USC 1681, section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ), consumer reporting agencies may only furnish a consumer report with the written consent of the consumer. I have not given XXXX, Experian, XXXX, or any financial institution my written consent to share my information. Therefore, any consent previously given, whether verbal, non-verbal, written, implied, or otherwise, is hereby revoked. According to 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ), financial institutions must inform consumers of their right to opt out of the disclosure of their nonpublic personal information to nonaffiliated third parties. I was not informed of this right by the information furnishers to credit agencies. Additionally, 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) states that no consumer reporting agency may include adverse information in a consumer report that is older than seven years, except for records of convictions of crimes. The adverse account being reported by XXXX and Experian is without my permission and is against the law. Furthermore, 15 USC 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) ( A ) states that a person should not furnish information to a consumer reporting agency if they know or have reasonable cause to believe it is inaccurate. Also, 15 USC 1681e requires consumer reporting agencies to maintain procedures to prevent violations of section 1681c and to ensure that reports are furnished only for permissible purposes. XXXX, XXXX, and Experian are failing to maintain these procedures. Lastly, under 12 CFR 1016.7, a consumer has the right to opt out at any time. I am exercising my right to opt out of the reporting services of XXXX, XXXX, and Experian.

I was completely taken aback this morning when I saw inaccurate accounts on my credit report, and I have no clue how they got there. I regularly monitor my credit report, but today there were discrepancies that just didnt make any sense. I tried refreshing my browser, hoping it was just a glitch, but the errors remained. This has me really concerned, and Im requesting that the documents Ive submitted be carefully reviewed so that I can stop worrying about this.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (IL)

I am writing to formally dispute the unauthorized furnishing of my personal credit information by your company. According to my recent credit report, there are entries that I did not authorize and which I know are in violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). This is the 6 letter and dispute I have sent to this COMPANY along with my police report, FTC report, and supporting identity documents verifying my identity. I indicated in all my letters and police report that I am indeed a victim of identity theft, and this creditor is violating my consumer rights and not protecting me as an American consumer according to the stated laws. This is my 6th notice to this company notifying you guys that this listed account is fraud. My information isnt protected, and this credit bureau and company isnt honoring my identity theft claim. My 7th notice of litigation will be a lawsuit suing this company, this company did not honor my rights or acknowledge my supporting documents regarding identity theft. This account was open illegally and fraudulently and Ive proven this matter and will prove it in court without a doubt, Im going to sue for my rights being violated, pain and suffering, false allegations from this creditor, and assisting to furnish a wrong, and fraudulent account. I demand this account be removed ASAP.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (PA)

My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX AND XXXX XXXX XXXX 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 in XXXX AND XXXX to be removed. 

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. 

XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX AND XXXX XXXX XXXX never sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 

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! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

Product: Credit card — 
Issue: Closing/Cancelling account — 
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (PA)

Citibank cancelled a credit card and will not reopen. I was given no notice that this card account was being terminated- This has affected my credit score. 
I had this account for several years-since XX/XX/XXXX andI never missed a payment-I was never late with a payment-I never did anything but pay on time and they cancelled the card. I was told that i had not used it for a considerable length of time so they closed the account and they said that they do not have to tell me that this is going to happen-they can do this at their discretion. I tried to find out when the last time was that I used the card but this is an online account and I have no access any longer.I can not obtain any information from the website any longer as this account is now dead and closed and phone customer support would not give me the information either. The closing of this account has hurt my credit score and I feel it was closed for absolutely no reason and I had no warning that this card was being terminated. If I had I certainly could have put a purchase through on it to keep the account viable, but it is closed. When I first found it was closed I contacted customer support where the agent had no idea what I was talking about and initiated a credit limit increase-which obviously was not what I was calling about so this was turned down. Then I called again and spoke with a supervisor who pretty much told me she would resubmit my desire to reopen the account but that it would probably be denied and it was. I was told that this was because I have a lot of accounts and have considerable payments and they would not reopen but had I used this card it would not have been closed so my outstanding balances were not an issue then but they are now-they had even sent me a new card with an expiration date of XX/XX/XXXX so I do not know what happened. Just want to try to get this reopened-even if the credit limit is less than it used to be.
