Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION (AZ)

My name is XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX or XXXX 2023 my previous landlord XXXX XXXX sent a partial refund on my deposit in the amount of XXXX and some change. My landlord sent money via XXXX to my phone number XXXX. I got a text message to that number saying that the funds will be available to my Navy Federal Credit Union checking account. However I do not have a XXXX account nor a NFCU account. My wife has a XXXX account through Navy Federal Credit Union. I tried to set up an account through XXXX but each customer service associate that I have spoken to has directed me to NFCU saying that my phone number is associated with a NFCU account. My money is now in limbo. XXXX refuses to help me and NFCU is also not able to do anything to help. I have my money somewhere in the system and no one is able to help me. I find it disheartening that XXXX nor NFCU is able to assist or even understand my situation. They both keep blaming each other. I have never had a XXXX account, I just recently began trying to use XXXX. And I have never had a bank account or a NFCU account. The only thing I need to happen is for my phone number XXXX to be deleted completely from XXXX and NFCU.

I sent this company a qualified written request to validate the claimed debt per the FDCPA 15 USC 1692 ( g ). I sent them a verification of debt, to which theyve not provided any response. I told them to cease and desist. The company is liable for the damages their commercial misrepresentation has caused me. The purported original creditor never loaned me anything. Theres no way I would be liable to pay a debt to company that doesnt have any interest I have no contractual obligations to. This company has no standing to make claims of a debt owed. In direct violation of the FDCPA, this company under the authority of XXXX XXXX is harassing me.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days

I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense XXXX this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach.

I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. 

I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.
