I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX via XXXX XXXX and via the XXXX major credit reporting bureaus XXXX, Equifax and XXXX to inform them of the fact that I had discovered a fraudulent account being reported by XXXX XXXX  ( account reference number provided : XXXX ) on my credit reports on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX. I provided each of the concerned parties copies of the Identity Theft Report I filed with my local police department detailing the Identity Theft I had suffered and I specifically requested that this fraudulent account be removed from my credit files immediately pursuant to 15 USC 1682c-2. I also requested verification of the debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX to include details about how the account was opened, what personal information of mine was utilized in the fraud in order to successfully open and/or maintain continued usage of the account, any identifiable information regarding any possible linked payment methods associated with the account which may help me to either identify the perpetrator and/or discover whether other fraudulent accounts may have been opened elsewhere using my personal information, transaction records, statements, billing addresses associated with the account, what methods are used ( if any ) to verify the information associated with the account, etc. XXXX XXXX XXXX ignored my requests and following the dispute process with Equifax, XXXX and XXXX, erroneously concluded that the information regarding this account was verified as accurate. It is not accurate. This account is the direct result of a pattern of fraud being perpetrated by someone who managed to steal my wallet back in XX/XX/XXXX and in fact, this is the second time that XXXX XXXX has allowed this individual to open a fraudulent credit card account with XXXX XXXX XXXX using my identity. Upon further inspection of my other credit reports with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, I also recently discovered that there were also multiple fraudulent checking and savings accounts opened in my name with XXXX XXXX XXXX as well. I had also reported those previous identity theft incidents to police and obtained replacements for my missing XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX issued Birth Certificate, Social Security Card, bank debit cards, credit cards and other sensitive items. Despite the fact that I fully informed XXXX XXXX of these details and facts, they continue to disregard my correspondence and report this fraudulent account to the XXXX major credit bureaus in violation of 15 USC 1682c-2 and other applicable consumer protection laws. These fraudulent credit card account entries still appear on all three of my major credit reports and the fraudulent bank accounts still appear on my XXXX and XXXX reports.

This response has raised my concerns, when disputing negative, and derogatory accounts on my credit report. I have provided all necessary identifying information, including my Driver 's License, utility XXXX, and XXXX XXXX as well. I disputed this derogatory account # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to have removed from my credit report because it's impacting me from obtaining a mortgage loan.

Despite our persistent attempts, I regret to inform you that these fraudulent items still persist on my record. I kindly request that you prioritize the investigation and removal of these fraudulent items with the utmost urgency. It is imperative to take all necessary steps to rectify these discrepancies in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and other relevant regulations. 

Furthermore, I would greatly appreciate receiving regular updates on the progress made in resolving these matters and a clear timeline for when I can expect to see these fraudulent items removed from my credit report. I understand that addressing such issues may require time and effort, but I urge you to handle this matter with the diligence and attention it deserves. With this, I am asking for your assistance to remove the items : XXXX  XXXX XXXX Balance : {$2400.00} - The limit to this account was a fraction of the amount due it as stated. That is utterly unfathomable! Had a proper investigation been conducted you would have seen the error and corrected it immediately. You failed to do your job ; you must now REMOVE THIS ITEM ALTOGETHER. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$0.00} - This is showing to be 120+days past due as the current status but it also says its been transferred. Youre showing a payment due amount but how can I owe something to a company that no longer owns the account? You need to change the description to say and change the Current Status to say : Paid as Agreed. Please remove all the negative information as well as it is a violation of automatic stay and bankruptcy court orders. 

XXXX  XXXX Bankruptcy Reference # : XXXX Liability : {$0.00} - This bankruptcy file date is wrong and this bankruptcy is out of statute for reporting on a credit report. It should no longer be reported because it is past the 10-year statute of limitations that a credit bureau can report. Please update the filing date and then remove.

This complaint concerns a high-Interest loan company. I acquired a secured loan with XXXX XXXX XXXX and paid the loan off early. My first loan with XXXX XXXX was at 15 %, then I was sent an invitation to apply for additional funds, and the interest rate increased to 18 %. My issue is that I paid off a {$12000.00} loan in a little over a year, and my credit score did not increase, not one point. I am assuming if you don't pay your loan over the life of the loan, which would accumulate a high amount of interest, the company will close your account instead of reporting that the account is paid in full first. When I approached the credit bureaus about correcting the issue, the company stated that the account was " Paid '' and in good standing. Therefore the credit bureau considers the complaint resolved. 

Credit reporting aims to show your ability to pay your obligations on time. There should be a rule or law that requires lenders of personal loans to report that an account is " Paid in Full '' for at least 90 days before closing the account, which in some cases can hurt your credit score. If your policy states that there is no penalty for early pay-off ; why not give credit where credit is due?
