Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Opening an account — Unable to open an account
Company: U.S. BANCORP (WA)

On XX/XX/2023 I applied for a checking account online with U.S. Bank. I received an email that it was currently under review. The following day I called and spoke to an agent on the phone to follow up and I was told that I would have to send required documents to verify my identity. On XX/XX/2023, I submitted scanned copies of my documents to XXXX. On XX/XX/2023 @ XXXX XXXX Eastern Time, I received an email from them stating that my checking account was APPROVED and should wait for a follow up email within 2-3 business days. Days go by and no email received. 

I followed up and called them on Monday, XX/XX/2023 regarding my approved checking account. The agent from the deposit review department told me that my checking account was turned down. I told her that it was approved. I just received an email on XX/XX/2023. She then transferred the call to her supervisor. 

The supervisor then told me that the checking account was approved by their first system and then was declined by the second system due to a system error. I told her if they can do anything about it since it is a system error and can be override by a human being. She replied " NO, THIS CAN NOT BE DONE ''. I also told her to review my application manually by a person in their back office and she said again that this can't be done. It's not about your personal info, it's about the system error, she added. 

This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever experienced in my life. They declined my checking account application due to a system error? and no one can override or at least give a review to reconsider? THIS IS UNFAIR BANK PRACTICE TO CUSTOMERS!!!!! 

Thank you.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (GA)

I need all false information removed from my report. I have repeatedly advised and submitted the affidavit stating that addresses, work info and information that is incorrect or not me. It has not been removed. The agency, Equifax has removed some of the fraudulent items but not all. This continues to be a great burden on my name and reputation as a consumer. Stating that items came back verified simply means that it was verified that the thief actually made these transactions. Not one person or entity contacted me, my friends or family concerning this. So who actually verified this fraud?

My sister and I have the exact same social security number with the exception of the very last digit. While going through my credit report recently I found several items on my credit which I did not open and I am positive that it was due to my sister using my social for her accounts. There are 7 student loans taken out in 2009 alone. There's no way that they all belong to me. I would like to see about researching which ones belong to me and which ones don't and see about removing the ones that do not belong to me from my credit report. 
My sister was working for XXXX XXXX a little more than a year ago and during that time her student loans were not reflecting negatively on the credit report because the company has a repayment program but a year ago my sister left that company and now all of a sudden I have all of these extra student loans that have hit my credit report and lowered my credit almost 200 points. 
I have been trying for months now to be able to figure out where the student loans are being held how much is being held and when they were open so that I could figure out which ones I needed to dispute but every single loan holder that I have called has no record of my accounts existing at all. 
I am at my Wit 's end and I don't know what to do from here and I would greatly appreciate the assistance

I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach.

Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure — 
Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC (CA)

On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, I filed a loan modification with my primary home mortgage lender, Aurora Loan Services LLC. They have since changed their name to Nationstar Mortgage. ( I have XXXX loan with Nationstar and smaller mortgage loan with XXXX Lender for the same house ) I was XXXX of those homeowners that signed a balloon home loan agreement back in XXXX. I did n't realize before I signed the loan modification documents, but on the schedule of payments table it shows that in the year XXXX I have to pay a one-time payment of {$180000.00} in interest. I believe this is absolutely absurd, because if I had the money to pay the mortgage payment, I would 've never asked for a loan modification. Instead they lumped up the mortgage payment at the end of my loan agreement and in XXXX I will still not have the {$180000.00} lump sum they are going to come after. ( Please see page XXXX of the Aurora loan modification documents I have scanned and attached for that table ). Keep in mind that there are XXXX difference loan numbers. The loan number I had with Aurora Loans used to be # XXXX. When the loan was transferred to Nationstar, my loan number changed to : # XXXX. I read in the XXXX magazine this year that consumerfinance.gov put penalties on Aurora for doing bad business with other homeowners and I 'm wondering if I qualify as XXXX of those homeowners, but they slipped through the cracks with my loan because Aurora was able to transfer my loan over to another name ( Nationstar ). Please help me look into this, because I think it is wrong on so many levels. Please assist me with getting Nationstar to rectify my loan modification agreement and take out that last payment of {$180000.00}. I 'm XXXX with XXXX income. Please, I do n't know what else to do, and I 'm desperate for any assistance or advice I can get. I appreciate your help.
