I have been disputing fraud ITEMS on my credit report. The items are not showing in dispute nor are they removed from my report. The bureaus seem to ignore the trend and let these fraudulent items affect my credit score. I have requested the investigation to be initiated and also verifiable proof to be submitted should the items claim to be mine. I have had ENOUGH! HOW MUCH DOCUMENTATION does it take to get SOMEONE to REALLY DO SOMETHING?? LOOK at the attachments! THIS IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE! You asked for Documentation and I have given it. AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN! This is my last option before I take this up with my lawyers and sue for full compensation and damages incurred. Please delete the items immediate.

I requested an investigation to Lexis Nexis because they continue reporting in my risk report the account XXXX I received a letter on XX/XX/2019 in which indicates that they verified that XXXX CASE NUMBER XXXX is accurately correctly reporting. I understand that LexisNexis is not doing its job correctly because in a past claim they sent a letter directly to you stating that this account was deleted from my records ( attached copy of the letter ) I demand to delete that account from my LexisNexis risky report. That UN accurate account is affecting me on my personal information

Company: LCI Acquisition Inc. (NY)

XX/XX/2023, I sent a letter to the courthouse asking do they report bankruptcies to the credit bureaus and I got a letter stating They do not report any bankruptcies to anybody. So if thats the case. How did the credit bureaus verify my bankruptcy as 100 % Accurate. They never did a fair investigation according to the 15 USC 1681.

15 USC 1681 section 603 ( 3 ) ( E ) States ; The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. 

They also violated my rights numerous times. 

The credit bureaus violated my given rights under 15 USC 1681.

According to : 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States I have the right to privacy.

According to : 15 U.S.C 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written instructions According to : 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.

Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (CA)

I made a purchase that I believed to be on my debit card with XXXX on XX/XX/2017 that was charged to my XXXX XXXX credit card instead. 

XXXX had switched cards between companys so no records of any debt were on my online account and no bills were sent to me. XXXX if there was any issue had the ability fo notify of any debits, but, likely due to inefficiencies did not until 3 months later where I was notified of a statement. Seems odd that they would not notify me earlier if there were any debts. 

This statment initially showed a dead, no balance account, as was shown when I checked in with XXXX in early XXXX. 

Despite this XXXX 's attacked my credit rating, has refused to correct the misreporting, and had penalized me in fees ( which I paid to stop the credit damage from them ).

On XX/XX/2024, I contacted this agency via certified mail to report that I had fallen victim to identity theft. However, as of today XX/XX/2024, the agency continues to report information that originated from the identity theft incident. According to Section 605B, which pertains to blocking information resulting from identity theft, consumer reporting agencies are mandated to inform furnishers of information, including financial institutions, that the information in question XXXX be linked to identity theft and that an identity theft report has been filed. I am providing the agency with FTC report number XXXX, along with a requested block. 

Upon receiving such notification, Section 623 ( a ) ( 6 ) mandates furnishers to block the reporting of any information in the consumer 's file that the consumer identifies as resulting from identity theft within XXXX business days of receiving : XXXX. ) suitable proof of the consumer 's identity ; ( XXXX ) a copy of an identity theft report ; ( XXXX ) identification of the information by the consumer; and ( XXXX ) a statement from the consumer confirming that the information is unrelated to any transaction they initiated. 

I fulfilled all XXXX requirements and will provide evidence with this complaint. However, the agency has failed to meet the requirement of the FCRA 15 U.S. Code 1681c2 to block the reporting of the identified information within the stipulated XXXX business days of receiving notification. This failure constitutes a violation of the law, and the agency is civilly liable to me for willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n for any actual damages I have incurred as a result of this oversight.

Issue: Managing an account — Problem making or receiving payments
Company: FIRSTBANK PUERTO RICO (PR)

In XX/XX/2019 a mortgage payment was set using the online banking offered by FirstBank in Puerto Rico. Payment was received by the mortgage bank on or before XX/XX/XXXX however FirstBank did not honor the payment despite having sufficient funds in the checking account. 

This caused for the mortgage bank to impose penalties including an NSF of {$15.00} and a late payment fee on the mortgage of {$91.00} on or about XX/XX/XXXX. This evidence of the {$15.00} and {$91.00} has already been provided to FirstBank. 

After numerous calls attempting to address FirstBank 's mistake and to provide remedy, my wife and I visited a FirstBank branch on XX/XX/XXXX. We were told that FirstBank attempted to contact us to confirm that the online payment was made by us and were unsuccessful. 

This explanation is ridiculous for numerous reasons such as the access required to make such a payment online with our bank account, and the double security implemented. But, more importantly, this is a payment that is made every month AND in XXXX the same call was made and confirmed. Therefore, a XXXX-year old child-like level of due diligence of their own records would have provided any required confirmation without the need to even having to call us. 

After the visit at the branch were a statement was written, my wife and I have made repeated and numerous calls to FirstBank 's customer service line and they have never been able to provide assistance nor remedy the situation. 

This has caused the loss of scores and scores of hours that should never have been wasted, a damage to our credit score/report and the imposition of fees to us that is also the responsibility of FirstBank.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (NH)

I have attached a copy of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau order of 2015 pertaining to the collection process on medical debts. This federal agency has levied millions in penalties against several medical collection agencies for abusive collection practices since the 2015 mandate that consumers must be granted 180 days-notice that any or all medical debts can not be posted against a consumers credit report. What this entails is that I as an American consumer needs time to either settle a medical collection before said collection gets posted on my credit report, or that my medical insurance carrier had enough time to resolve the collection either in full or by any sustained factoring agreement in place with the medical servicer, be it a physician, clinic, ambulance service or hospital. That has not been the case in the attached medical collection ( s ) posted on XXXX, XXXX  and Trans Union respectfully. Since the 2015 agreement between the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and all three credit reporting agencies, medical collection agencies have violated this agreement in its entirety. Having established that there is a specified procedure in place on medical collection postings on a consumers credit, it is a fact that most if not all medical collectors are in violation of their subscriber agreement with the major credit reporting agencies. Since my rights have already been violated by the collection agency stated in this complaint, the collection should be VOID completely. I am not disputing any factual conclusion if I was even given medical attention, just stating that my personal credit history has been damaged by an unlawful collection practice. I should be entitled to damages for the overall cost involved with what would otherwise be a perfect credit history. Accordingly, I respectfully request for the disputed medical collection ( s ) to be deleted permanently, and if this particular collection agencies needs a remedy for collection, it has abused the credit reporting system by violating my rights. In my opinion the only recourse at this time would be moving forward through other collection processes outside of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The disputed collection must be deleted permanently, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau must sanction and fine the agency for its abusive actions. The credit reporting agencies should also terminate the subscriber agreement if place. My dispute is based on material facts and current policies on medical collections. The attached disputed collection ( s ) should be deleted permanently without any right to reinsert from this point forward.
