Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information is missing that should be on the report
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CA)

" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. ''

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (CA)

I called the number on the back of my Bank of America ( " BofA '' ) credit card on Tuesday, XX/XX/XXXX, on or around XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX - XXXX XXXX  XXXX. I had a serious problem with BofA 's automated system ( " IVR '' or " Interactive Response System '' ). The IVR deliberately disconnected the phone call on me. This is egregious. If a customer doesn't press the correct prompts, at the right time, in the right order, the automated system then indicates it can not assist and will disconnect ; then subsequently it does, in fact, disconnect on the customer. This is inappropriate and unacceptable. Under no circumstance, should the VR willfully disconnect on any customer. This is bad business. In addition, I recall filing a complaint about this same matter around XXXX or XXXX with an agent over the phone. Bank of America did not correct this issue after it was brought to their attention. BofA has the worst IVR I have ever seen.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc (NY)

I have had an account with PayPal for years. They already have my SSN, address, phone number, credit card information. Now they have limited my account access and want a photo driver's license and a utility bill. This is too much. Then PayPal tells me I can't cancel my account! I found postings on the web from 2008 from customers PayPal attempted this with and it was thought to be a scam.  I have lived in the same house for the past 30 year, no problems with the PayPal account. I had to go into my PayPal account and change all the information I was allowed to change, then closed my account. Couldn't delete but did close it. No way am I giving them a copy of my enhanced driver's license or utility bill. Now I want to be sure they no longer have access to my SSN and other information. PayPal told me that the extra PERSONAL information was required by the government. What part of the government they couldn't tell me.

" 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 ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ). 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 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This results in civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n. 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.

That prompted me to take a look at my credit report and that's when I noticed that someone had used my personal information to apply for and obtain credit.
