Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (IA)

I have items passed on that should be taken out or blocked. Per FCRA segment 605, Credit Bureaus are expected to eliminate any records recorded on an ID THEFT REPORT. I've proactively remembered this report from a past letter and I am including it once more. I've educated my lawyer regarding my aims and they are eager to consider that Credit Bureaus are responsible for their tenacious rebelliousness.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CA)

Upon a thorough review of my credit report, I have identified multiple errors that have adversely affected my credit score. These errors are not a true reflection of my credit history, and I believe they may have resulted from clerical mistakes, identity theft, or outdated information. I am requesting that these inaccuracies be promptly investigated and removed to ensure my credit report accurately reflects my financial responsibility. The incorrect information has caused undue harm to my credit score, which can affect my ability to secure credit and other financial opportunities. I trust that you will address this matter with the urgency it requires and make the necessary corrections.

Product: Prepaid card — General-purpose prepaid card
Issue: Problem getting a card or closing an account — Trouble getting a working replacement card
Company: Incomm Holdings Inc. (OR)

My fiance and I just purchased a Vanilla Visa gift card from XXXX tonight ( XX/XX/2023 ) for one of our relatives that is helping with our wedding this weekend ( we were wanting to do something nice for all the help they have given us ) We purchased the card and put {$200.00} on it. When we got it home and were taking it out of the blister pack it was in ( which was sealed ) so we could put it in the greeting card, we noticed the last 4 digits of the card number were scratched off, and also the 3 digit cvv was scratched off. So we have no way to access the {$200.00} we just put on the card. 

We immediately took the card back to XXXX tonight, and were told by them that they can not do anything about that due to it being a gift card ( non returnable/non refundable ) They told us to call the number on the back of the prepaid card. 

I proceeded to call the number and spoke with a representative about getting a repalcement card. They initially asked for the 16 digit card number, which i told them was not possible because the last 4 numbers and the cvv were scratched off. 

She then proceeded to take my name, date of birth, address, phone number and the XXXX reciept ID #, but then also told me i will still need to send in a verification of address ID ( drivers license ) copies of the front and back of the card, and the XXXX reciept. I just dont feel comfortable sending to an email im not familiar with ( XXXX ) especially after reading quite a few other peoples experiences with Vanilla, some of which haven't received a refund going on a couple of months. 

They gave me a case # XXXX, but i am still very leary about sending them any more personal info for a prepaid card. 

Even after I send all of that info, they said it will take at least 30 days to invesitgate before they can possibly send a new card. This seems very shady to me, and i feel violated for them taking {$200.00} from me and holding it XXXX  until they deem it ok ...... 

I ended up having to purchase another gift card for {$200.00} ( which we verified at the store to make sure the numbers werent scratched off ) so that we had one to give for our wedding this weekend. That was {$200.00} i wasnt planning on having to spend, so it is a bit aggravating.

Due to your violations, I will take legal action and submit a complaint for small claims for default judgment, which allows up to {$1000.00} per violation. I am requesting an ALLEGED DEBT to be VALIDATED, pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) validation of debt section, 15 USC 1692g. I also demand a request for accounting of this alleged debt, pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code, UCC Article 9-210. Therefore, I demand validation and verification of the alleged debt. Furthermore, it is imperative that you notify TransUnion and XXXX to delete this information from my credit report immediately. The account in question is detailed and Unauthorized Accounts include the following : XXXX  XXXX XXXX In addition, I am requesting for a copy of the 1099-C filed for the charged-off debt. XXXX XXXX must provide this to me, as the consumer, or you will be neglecting to comply with FEDERAL law. This leaves me no choice but to assume that you have neglected to comply with FEDERAL law by not filing a 1099-C as mandated. Consequently, I am compelled to inform you that I will report XXXX XXXX to the IRS for potential tax fraud using Form 3949-A if prompt action is not taken. As per IRS regulations, a canceled debt of {$600.00} or more necessitates the filing of a 1099-C form by federal or government agencies, or applicable financial entities. Failure to comply with this requirement constitutes tax fraud, a serious offense that I will not hesitate to report to the IRS. It is essential to understand that a canceled debt is considered ordinary income by the IRS. Consequently, any failure to file a 1099-C form, or any attempt to conceal such actions, constitutes inaccurate reporting. Income is not to be included on a credit report, and any such inclusion violates consumer laws and regulations. Your company 's actions are in clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 USC 1681s-2, which outlines the responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies. Under this statute, it is prohibited to furnish inaccurate information knowingly or with reasonable cause to believe it is inaccurate. It is imperative that you take immediate steps to rectify this situation by deleting the inaccurate information from all consumer reporting agencies. Failure to comply will result in legal action being pursued, including holding XXXX XXXX accountable for willful noncompliance under 15 USC 1681n ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). This statute stipulates that any person who willfully fails to comply with FCRA requirements may be liable for damages sustained by the consumer. I urge you to act swiftly and cease reporting this item to avoid further complications. Kindly delete this off my report immediately.

This debt collector engaged in abusive, deceptive and unfair practices of the FDCPA which prohibits. They furnish this account that we didnt agree upon and I didn't sign an agreement on. A legal contract is signed by two parties and I did not participate in any of it, more so they didnt follow the proper 5 step validation procedure which makes this unfair practices.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: MOHELA (NY)

I am using MOHELA as my student loans servicer and have enrolled in the PSLF program. I made all required payments on time and in full for over 10 years qualifying me for loan forgiveness. After submitting the necessary paperwork to have my loans forgiven it took 6 months to hear back, even though I was told 90 days max. After numerous calls to customer service that kept me on hold for hours I was told everything looked acceptable, but they were waiting on the Federal Government to approve it. Today I received notice that I was denied because I needed to make 120 payments, but also that I had already made 130 qualifying payments. Of those 130, 124 were eligible. No further explanation as to why I was denied and can not seem to reach a helpful or knowledgeable representative. It appears I am one of the many many people mislead and mistreated by this servicer and/or program. I work as a qualified employer of the public sector on the XXXX of XXXX, NY XXXX XXXX and have dutifully held up my end of the agreement. It has been over 10 years and I still have to make payments on my loans that should be forgiven. None of these extra payments are reimbursed if I should ever get this program to effectively forgive my loans as promised.
