Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (CA)

Upon reviewing my recent credit report, I have identified discrepancies that require immediate attention. The bank has committed to updating the status to open/never late. Other credit bureaus have already corrected the status of the account after the bank recognized the inaccuracy of the account. I kindly request a thorough investigation into this account and prompt communication of the findings via mail. According to information available online, such disputes should be resolved within 30 days. Therefore, I expect to receive your response within this time-frame.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (MD)

My account with EQUIFAX 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 ( MONTHS REPORTING LATE ) 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. 


EQUIFAX 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

Ive made several attempts to this company to stop reporting innacurate information on my credit report, they refuse to do so and its causing me a world of trouble and stress. They did not complete a Social Security Form 3288 ( SSA-3288 ), which is required for permissible purpose under FCRA. This raises serious concerns about the legitimacy of the information reported, as well as the adherence to privacy regulations. I obtained my credit report it is reporting numerous innacurate negative accounts. This has not only damaged my right to extend credit but it has made loose hope and trust within the banking system. I have been denied credit cards home loans because of this and my character has not only been defamed but my mental and physical health have suffered greatly. There is no law that says a consumer reporting agency MUST furnish information about a consumer which is why congress made it very clear that XXXX, XXXX, equifaxASSUMED this VITAL role pursuant too 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 3 ). Also, XXXX, XXXX, equifax failed to be fair and repect my privacy according too 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ). I am requesting valid proof and documentation that these negative items were investigated fairly and properly. XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax is in violation of several federal laws including responsibility they have to protect my privacy. Im giving XXXX the oppurtunity to make this matter right by way of the following ; REMOVE ACCOUNTS, REMOVE LATE PAYMENTS, REMOVE INQUIRIES, REMOVE INNACURATE PERSONAL INFORMATION,

The documents I'm looking at have nothing to do with any transactions involving goods, services, or money that I've made or approved.

Issue: Closing an account — Company closed your account
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (NY)

I have had a longstanding consumer relationship with Citibank, spanning over 30 years, which has unfortunately taken a distressing turn due to an internal error within the bank. 

I initiated a request to close a Certificate of Deposit ( CD ) account that had been established by my late mother. Importantly, this CD account was separate from my personal checking and savings accounts. However, due to a serious oversight on Citibank 's part, my personal checking and savings accounts were mistakenly closed instead of the intended CD account. 

Upon discovering the erroneous closure of their accounts, I promptly contacted Citibank 's customer service, only to be told that the closure had been executed at my own request. Frustrated and confused by this response, I took my concerns to a Citibank branch in XXXX, XXXX as directed by Citibanks customer service department. The branch confirmed that this was, in fact, an internal error and not initiated by me. They assured me that checks to reimburse for the affected accounts would be issued within 7 to 10 days. 

However, the promised timeframe has extended to a month, and when I finally received a check from Citibank, it was incorrectly made out to another individual. To resolve this issue, I worked with branch personnel to initiate a stop-check request for the incorrect checks. I was informed that new checks would be reissued which I have yet to receive. 

Furthermore, Citibank conveyed that they were unable to reinstate my accounts due to the internal error, leaving me in a precarious financial situation. The delay in resolving this matter has had severe repercussions, including late payments and penalties on other accounts connected to these funds. 

My long-standing and previously positive relationship with Citibank has been marred by an internal error that resulted in the incorrect closure of my personal checking and savings accounts. The subsequent attempts to rectify the situation have been met with delays, misaddressed checks, and a lack of clarity on the part of Citibank 's customer service. This has had significant financial consequences for me, and I am urgently seeking a resolution to expedite the disbursement of my funds.
