Reviewed most recent credit report and I noticed a collection that did not belong to me. After reaching out to the creditors, I was advised to contact the CRA to have the collection/charge off disputed and investigated as they do not have the ability to do so. After contacting the CRA I was meant with push-back even though I expressed the collection/charge off in questions did not belong to me.

Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. (IL)

In XXXX, it got to my attention that someone stole my identity and opened a fraudulent account in my name and it was used to cash a cashier check that was intended to me. I filed the check claim from my bank XXXX  on XX/XX/XXXX and citizens bank claimed to havre received the claim on XX/XX/XXXX, but even after receiving the claim, citizens bank didnt do anything concerning my claim. I also filed an identity theft claim with citizens bank requesting that all accounts opened in name at their institution should be closed, but citizens back denied my identity theft claim and also denied my check fraud claim i filed through XXXX. During this time i was also communicating with citizens bank and they said they can see this is a clear case of identity theft and fraud and they will be fully reimbursed for this and I shouldnt worry and i can confirm that on XX/XX/year>, the amount of money that was taken from the check was reimbursed back into the account so why were all my claims denied? I need a detailed and well structured explanation of what procedures were taken to investigate my case and what led to the decision case, how was an account opened in my name, what identification was used to open the account, was the account opened in person or online, what identification was used to verify the person that came in to deposit the check into the account. I need all this information as I believe my case isnt taken seriously by citizens bank. Also citizens bank claim to be still investigating then why deny all the claims if you are still investigating.lastly, I received the bank statements sent to me but the money that was reimbursed doesnt reflect on the account why is that so and when and how would I receive the full amount of my cashier check from citizens bank? I have waited for 90days and there hasnt been any substantial updates on my case and i want to be make very clear to citizens bank that if it gets to the 120 days period and my case hasnt been resolved as it should, i will be filing a huge lawsuit against citizens bank and i promise to sue for damages and citizens would have to pay even more than the original amount.

Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: Universal Recovery Corporation (CA)

On XXXX XXXX, XXXX at XXXX PST I called Universal Recovery Corp to inquire on debt I found on my credit. A gentlemen answered the phone and I ask for the current balance. For account # XXXX he stated I owe {$66.00} and for account # XXXX he stated I owe {$83.00}. I asked him how come the balance is different on my report, it says I owe {$56.00} and {$55.00}. The collection company representative said " the discrepancy is because we have n't re-reported to the credit bureaus, XXXX XXXX was the last time we reported on the stonewood account, and XXXX XXXX on the clearside account '' I asked him if that meant his establishment does not report current and accurate information to the credit bureau and he stated " yes ''. 

This is fraud! If they are n't reporting current and accurate information on my credit what else are they falsifying. My best-friend owns a collection agency and they report to the CB twice a month to make sure everything is accurate and current. What if I was making payments, or anyone for that matter, this company does n't report payments being made? This is terrible business practices and they should be audited to ensure they are n't committing any crimes or falsifying anything major!!!
