Issue: Trouble using your card — Can't use card to make purchases
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (TX)

On or about XX/XX/year> I was using my card to make purchases related to a recent move. Synchrony Bank, flagged a purchase as Fraud, and sent me a text message. When I called them to resolve the issue, I was on hold for over an hour. 

A few days later I attempted to access my credit card account on-line and I'm locked out, so I called and attempted to resolved the issue. I was told by someone who was obviously not a US Citizen, that they would send a link to my phone number and that I would need to take a picture and upload it to the link along with a copy of my drivers license. This seemed very supicious and I asked to speak with a US representative. The US Representative was telling me the same thing, so I asked for a supervisor because when I called in, the system recognized my phone number and matched it to my account. After talking to the supervisor, she offered to send me a passcode by mail that I could use to call in and verify myself. 

When I attempted to call back in to verify my account with the pascode I was mailed, Synchrony Bank refuses to accept the passcode they mailed me to verify myself and are demanding that I either upload a picture to them along with a copy of my drivers license or that I can mail them a copy of drivers license and a copy of my electric bill. As these are all items that can be used for identity theft I am refusing to do this. 

I believe that the fact that they will not accept the passcode that the mailed me via the US Mail should be adequate to prove I am who I say I am- and if they will not accept it, then that is Mail Fraud. 

I have tried to escalate the issue within Synchrony Bank, but the Account Manager I spoke with ( sorry I didn't get a name ) would not escalate to anyone. 

I refuse to follow their prescribed method for verifying my identity ( clicking on an unknown link and taking a video/photo of myself and uploading a copy of my drivers license ) or mailing them the same. 

I do not want this to affect my credit, however I can not verify any purchases made on the card as they refuse to mail me a statement or allow me access to the account on-line to verify the charges.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (NY)

Hello, I am writing to file a formal dispute against several creditors who have violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act ( FACTA ), and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act ( ECOA ). 

As per the details of my complaint, I have experienced severe financial hardships due to the unverified and inaccurate information that creditors have reported to consumer reporting agencies. The specific sections of the laws that may have been violated are as follows : Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Section 607 - Requirements for Consumer Reporting Agencies to Correct Inaccurate Information Section 610 - Conditions and Form of Disclosure to Consumers Section 611 - Procedure in Case of Disputed Accuracy Section 623 - Responsibilities of Furnishers of Information to Consumer Reporting Agencies Section 626 - Disclosures to FBI for Counterintelligence Purposes Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act ( FACTA ) Section 612 - Disclosures to Consumers Section 613 - Timing of Dispute Investigations Section 614 - Consumer 's Right to Dispute Information Section 615 - Requirements for Reinvestigations Equal Credit Opportunity Act ( ECOA ) Section 703 - Prohibition Against Discrimination Section 704 - Regulations to Carry Out the Purposes of this Subchapter Furthermore, the creditors have listed several inaccurate and unverified addresses on my credit report, which is a direct violation of FCRA Section 607. My current address is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NY XXXX, but they have listed multiple addresses that I have never lived at, including XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX NC XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NY XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NY XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NC XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NC XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MA XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NY XXXX, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NY XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MA XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MA XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, GU XXXX. 

The creditors ' actions have severely impacted my life. I have been denied credit and loans due to the inaccurate information on my credit report, which has prevented me from purchasing a home or a vehicle. Additionally, it has caused me significant emotional distress, and I have been unable to sleep or concentrate on my work. 

Therefore, I am requesting that you enforce the legal provisions outlined above and ensure that the creditors remove all unverified accounts from my credit report. I would appreciate your prompt attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

I am still waiting for transunion to finish investigation from dispute I made last year in XXXX. Transunion responded to my fastest dispute by stating they were investigating and would have decision in 60 days. Federal law mandates they have 30 days from receiving dispute to delete, update or verify. They can file for a 15 day extention if consumer sends in pertinent information. No more than 45 days for any reason. CFPB is supposed to uphold the federal laws in FCRA but only let 's the agencies do whatever they want. I am taking my evidence to FTC and I want both CFPB and transunion to pay max fine of {$1000.00} for each of my disputes that took over 30 days.
