It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many information, accounts, or items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA the 3 credit bureaus are required by law to remove & block any accounts or information which is found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please remove these files. XXXX XXXX Balance : {$330.00} ; XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$1500.00} ; XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$2600.00} ; XXXX XXXX Balance : {$7200.00} ; If the credit bureaus feel there is a possibility these items belong to me I will require all documentation that bears my signature ( another research item I found that requires you to verify with 100 % accuracy that each item is 100 % true, accurate, correct, complete & VERIFIABLE ). If the credit bureaus do not provide any records & claim the item is verified please understand I will seek legal action. I do not take kindly to games nor does my attorney. SO please comply with the law so this matter can be handled swiftly.

They declined and opened a dispute because they stated it came from the creditor at the noted balance.

XXXX keeps adding balances and subtracting balances from my accounts. this is adversely affecting my credit score! I am in the middle of financing and their frequent updates are detrimental to this process. For one, they did not have my correct contact information and i was not able to be notified i was out of forbearance. I respectively ask that the lates from XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX be removed and set to current. As soon as i contacted XXXX my loans were put back in forbearance. Also, I want all loans older than 7 years off my credit report, as that is more than the SOL for my state. I need this done ASAP, as XXXX is doing illegal collecting and reporting practices.

I have had a Citibank credit card since 2008. Recently, I was going trough my credit report when i noticed the balance on my Citibank credit card i have on auto-pay does n't seem to be going down. I then contacted Citibank and they proceed to tell me that i have had a service called " Payment Safeguard '' activated on my account ( which i never authorized ) and it had been charging my credit card a monthly amount to have the service. So i was paying 26 % interest on the account, along with a $ 20+ monthly " safeguard fee ''. I was never contacted by Citibank to warn me that this was occurring, either by phone or mail. This is the most outrageous thing i have ever heard. I did not request to have this service and i want a refund for the money that is not theirs.

Fifth Third Bank is the initial relationship which uses a Jointly connected Company [ XXXX XXXX XXXX ] to make Fifth Third 's decisions on applications for Credit Access. 

I worked with a XXXX by the. name of XXXX XXXX. XXXX was as kind and thorough as one would expect from a XXXX. Kudos for XXXX. XXXX did everything her could from the XXXX XXXX. By the way, the XXXX XXXX XXXX have XXXX XXXX in the Bank 's system. All they can do is bring in new consumers and sign them up for every entry level product that the retail branch offers. No decision making for qualified or unqualified consumer 's files. ALL decisions are sent to Fundation [ a Third Party Outfit ] who has the last say-so within their Credit Access Structure. This experience with providing this XXXX every single piece of documentation requested was nothing short of a Nightmare!! After XXXX weeks of back and forth with their XXXX stating that they had not received, then XXXX saying we both has sent the documents. All documents requested were absolutely delivered but the Portal works when it wishes. [ I personally did upload successfully to the portal each document ]. On or about XX/XX/XXXX then on XX/XX/XXXX of 2024 both Fifth Third Bank & XXXX came back with a Declined Application for My Access to Credit. Here 's the Reason on the Letter of Denial : " Borrower Risk Outside of Tolerance ''. 

There are so many words once can't relay here about how these Institutions are supposed to be in positions to assist consumers who have outstanding credit profiles and above board credit history. The fact that they are supposed to allow access to credit for those of us who have given them XXXX plus weeks of our time and energy to get nothing in return isn't fair nor is it practical. 

I think Fifth Third was a better bank prior to engaging with XXXX XXXX XXXX. They had more backbone then. I have two colleagues that recommended that I give them a try. Sadly No. Not a good recommendation, with the exception XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Yes CONSUMER DISPUTED DATE AND TIME XX/XX/2017 XXXX ET CONSUMER RESPONSE XXXX XXXX, Senior Correspondent Specialist at Wells Fargo, still does not understand the issue and has provided factually wrong information in the reply. Factually Correct : Yes, I got a call from Wells Fargo ( wire division branch and unfortunately did not note down his name ) saying they were still investigating why Wells Fargo, as the intermediary branch in one transaction, had deducted {$30.00}. Her clearly understood the nature of my inquiry- that Wells Fargo was the intermediary bank and  WF should be able to explain or track down the {$30.00} charge. At NO time did I ever accept and said I understood the explanation- a claim falsely made by XXXX XXXX. Factually Wrong : From the explanation given by XXXX XXXX he/she still puts the blame on the Intermediary Bank. How many times do I have to state and explain that in one of the two transactions the intermediary bank IS  Wells Fargo.  XXXX XXXX, the branch manager and the gentlemen who called me on XX/XX/XXXX understand this clearly.

Company: AMERICAN HONDA FINANCE CORP (WA)

Near the end of my lease at XXXX XXXX of XXXX, I went into Honda to see how much it would cost me to finish off my lease. At the time they told me that I would need to get an inspection. I took it to XXXX XXXX XXXX to get my end of lease inspection. Upon the inspection I was asked by XXXX XXXX of Honda if I wanted to " sell my car to XXXX XXXX  XXXX to avoid any other fees ''. I said yes and was told that with my signature, the car and any leftover payments were no longer my responsibility. At that time, I asked about the turn-in fee that they are now trying to hold me for. I was told by XXXX XXXX XXXX that " you will not be charged this fee, because you did not turn in the car, It was sold to Honda. '' I then checked my account a few weeks later and saw that I was being charged the XXXX fee that I was told I would not be charged. I called XXXX and he said " do n't pay it and have them call me '' Which I did. After days of phone tag I was told that they were mistaken and that I owed the fee. If I had known this I would have paid it immediately as I had the money at the time. Now, I do not and feel like I am being given the runaround and being taken advantage of. I have since sent several letters about this matter that have been completely ignored by American Honda Finance. I have also been told in a letter that my account has been charged off and will be sent to a collection agency.

Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding a recent inaccurate reporting on my credit card account with XXXX. I have maintained this account for over two years with a perfect payment history. However, I was recently notified that my account has been reported as delinquent, which I believe is a result of a technology error. 

I have reached out to the credit bureau and XXXX multiple times to rectify this issue, explaining that technology failed me somehow someway because Ive made it a priority to keep my credit card accounts current. Unfortunately, I have yet to receive a response or resolution from them. 

As a result of this erroneous report, my credit score has been negatively impacted. I request that this delinquent status be removed from my credit report or, at the very least, updated to reflect that there is no past due amount and that the account is currently in good standing. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I hope for a prompt resolution to ensure my credit report accurately reflects my payment history.

Company: RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing LLC (IN)

I closed on the sale of my home on XX/XX/XXXX. Subsequently I called to give Roundpoint my new address so my escrow refund would be mailed to my new address. On XX/XX/XXXX I received my Customer Account Activity Statement addressed to my old address and called. It was dated XX/XX/XXXX and showed my escrow account was refunded XX/XX/XXXX. But the CSR told us it was mailed XX/XX/XXXX! I was repeatedly told they would not stop payment and reissue until 10 days after the check was issued. On XX/XX/XXXX I spoke with XXXX who said the check was issued XX/XX/XXXX! She promised to stop payment and have it reissued through the Cashiers Dept and would call us by XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I had to call her as I had heard nothing. I waited on the phone for close to 45 minutes for her to pick up my call. She agreed to stop payment, let her Cashiers Dept know I wanted the check sent overnight, and call me on XX/XX/XXXX. She did n't call. I called her today, XX/XX/XXXX, and waited 1.25 hours for her to take my call. She then informed me a check was MAILED XX/XX/XXXX because she did n't get with the Cashiers Dept quickly enough to have it sent overnight. So, now I 'm to wait another 10 business days to see if my check is received. It 's my understanding that escrow refunds are to be received within 30 days of the escrow account being closed. That did not happen. I also have a witness that heard both sides of the conversations because I had all calls on speaker phone.
