Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (TX)

Applied for the AMEX Hilton Honors Surpass card in early XXXX with a Welcome Bonus offer of XXXX Points + 1 Free Night Credit after spending {$2000.00} within 3 months. I met the {$2000.00} spending limit XX/XX/XXXX. After a few weeks gone by I did not see the welcome bonus applied to my Hilton account, I gave a call to AMEX for inquiry. I was given the short answer that their policy that it can take up to 8 - 12 weeks. I ask them why other people I know that applied around the same time frame have received theirs already and their answer is they don't know. After waiting several weeks and not receiving the bonus, I call to inquire again and got the same response. 12 weeks have since passed and so I call to inquire again, the rep agree that I have met the requirement but don't know why and open an escalation ticket. However, I must wait another 14 days to get a response. Anxiously, I waited 7 days and decided i'll chat with AMEX agent to check progress. Agent says she saw that an escalation ticket was open and it can take 90 days for them to resolve. So it seems an 8 - 12 weeks policy doesn't apply to everyone and after 12 weeks it can potentially take another 90 days if they do intend to resolve it at all. I am at a lost!

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.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

I have been submitting a disputes for SEVERAL MONTHS NOW against the accounts that these XXXX credit bureaus keep posting in my credit report. I have reason to beleive that these accounts are INACCURATE and UNVERIFIED information but they keep showing up in my credit report. They have not shown any legal evidence or proof of the original contract indicating that these accounts were made by me or owned by me in those months that I have been asking for proof or any signed agreement. I have asked for legal advice and was informed that what they are doing is against my rights and is not complaint with the FCRA/FDCPA. This has been causing me tremendous XXXX  and XXXX XXXX, not to mention FINANCIAL concerns especially in these times of the post-pandemic. They have not been helpful in resolving and properly investigating this request as I have asked, and I have been contemplating on taking them to court to resolve this, however, it would be more helpful for me to have the accounts corrected SOONER rather than later, and thus, the main reason for me giving them, literally, XXXX MORE CHANCE to do the right thing and REMOVE all these inaccurate and unverifiable information from my credit report. I hope you could help me shed light on them regarding this matter.

I have tried and tried to have these negative items removed from my credit report to no avail. This company is illegally reporting information on my personal credit reports without justification or consent. They are required to remove all inaccurate, false reporting, and outdated items from my reports and that has not been done. Furthermore my privacy rights are being violated, my character is being defamed, and no one has ever obtained my permission to any of these things. I do and have not consented to these proceedings. 

The following information is being inaccurately reported on my files and I'd like to have them all removed!

Shortly after I discovered the fraud attached to my social security number, I sent the credit bureau a detail letter, telling them the information was fraud, requesting that they remove/block the fraudulent information from reporting and included XXXX attachments proving my identity and that the items listed were fraud. I filed an identity theft report, which I provided the bureau a copy, ( Report number XXXX ) and submitted reports to the federal trade commission, ( report number XXXX and XXXX ). Despite all the evidence, the bureau refused to block/remove the items, in direct violation of FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ), which states that " a consumer reporting agency shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt by such agency. '' I submitted the request and all evidence in XXXX this year. As evidenced in the attachment, yet it is still reflecting on my credit today. 
The credit bureau has made no effort to protect me and my information. They have sent no supporting documents proving the alleged debt. The only thing I received was saying they " did an investigation. '' Which is impossible, because had they truly investigated, they would have found the accounts are not under my legal name, literal public records ( listed with the state ) show otherwise and a XXXX XXXX search would show every insurance I have ever had. Not to mention, my credit is flawless. No late payments, nothing overdue in my life. 
Plus the XXXX XXXX XXXX is reporting different fraudulent balances to different bureaus. It is clearly fraud and should be removed for that inaccuracy in itself!
