Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION (AZ)

There are several charges on my account, that I had no knowledge of. A third party debt collector contacted me, I contacted the bank to start the dispute process, they told me itd be resolved within a week or two. They denied my dispute and suddenly I owe a crazy amount of money and they keep calling me asking how Im going to pay it. Every time they call, the person says a different number that I owe. No one seems to be on the same page. I tried setting up auto pay with one employee, then the next person that called me said it wasnt set up. I had a renters insurance payment deposited into my savings account at this bank, which I was planning to use for food, but they took the entire amount and transferred it to my balance on my checking account and somehow I still owe more on that account, PLUS the credit card account.

According to the FCRA 15 USC 1681 ( e ) ( b ), my credit report should display the maximum possible accuracy. However, this is not the case because this credit reporting agency is purposely violating my consumer 's right by displaying numerous inaccuracies for this account which is negatively affecting my creditworthiness. 

Attached is the proof of this consistent VIOLATION of my consumer 's right in which this Charged Off account is being reported as " CO '' in the payment history/summary consecutively for the last 4 months which is impossible because the account can ONLY be charged off ONCE since it is dormant, not month after month. Due to this reported inaccuracy, this illegally resets the statute of limitations which once again is a VIOLATION! 

Please delete this account immediately!

In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigation ( s ), you stated in writing that you verified that this item is being reported correctly? Who verified this item?

" Method of Verification Dispute Notice : Remove these Fraudulent Accounts, Inquiries & Inaccurate Personal Information. 

The banking system is contingent upon equitable and accurate credit reporting, as stated in the equitable Credit Reporting Act ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). The banking system 's efficacy is directly impacted by inaccurate credit reports, and the public 's confidence is undermined by unfair credit reporting methods, which are essential for the system 's continued operation. 

Therefore, the efficiency of the finance system is compromised whenever the FCRA is violated. This is a violation of my privacy with respect to my consumer report, as I have the authority to determine which items are included and which are not. Identity theft is the act of reporting any accounts without my written consent. 

This is a violation of both XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. This results in civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The law permits a {$1000.00} fine per violation for each account listed without my expressed written assent. 

I reviewed my consumer reports and observed accounts that I had never granted anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have taken on a critical role and are obligated to report consumer information with the utmost accuracy, as the Fair Credit Reporting Act explicitly stipulates. I did not provide written consent to report them. I am expressing my dissatisfaction with the contents of the attached file.
