I have recently reviewed copies of my personal consumer credit reports and found questionable and/or inadequately verified data in the records maintained by your company. It appears that this information, previously removed, may have been re-added to my credit profile by your office ( s ) without the required 5-day notice, a violation of the reporting regulations you are obliged to follow. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), any information that has been deleted should not be reinserted into a consumer 's credit profile without directly notifying the affected consumer in writing within five business days of such reinsertion. I have not received any such notice or validation confirming the accuracy and completeness of the reinstated data.

I want to make it clear that I didn't give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. So, I'm formally asking for these accounts to be blocked and removed. It's important to stress that this request is not a mistake, and it's not based on any false information regarding why I want these transactions blocked.

My account is with XXXX by XXXX. My old balance and account shows as open on Equifax. I made a dispute and Equifax has reaffirmed the information. Although its inaccurate. XXXX XXXX has sold my account back in XXXX of 2023. Now both this account and the other account with the same account details show up on my credit report and it looks like I have more loans than I actually do, since its the same loan. Its negatively impacting my credit. I would like this removed from my credit report as they are no longer my creditor.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (FL)

Synchrony Bank is reporting and continuously reporting and validating disputes stating that a collection on my credit report from all credit bureaus for XXXX is valid. I did not come across this until reviewing my credit report to move out of my current apartment and fix my finances to buy a house with my XXXX XXXX XXXX son in XX/XX/2022. I filed 2 Identity theft reports, ive sent physical mail letters to all credit bureaus and the creditor. The only response I got from the creditor is that they validated the dispute because of an email address and thats it, which makes no sense to me. The lady i spoke to requested for me to submit a police report but i submitted multiple identity theft reports and Ive put freezes on all my credit reports, ive done all the right things with nothing fixed. Multiple times the report will get deleted and then put back on later, now i have difficulty getting scores, requesting reports, it makes me look bad and get flagged because i have to keep disputing the same reporting continuously. After disputing that it has been deleted and put back on, i dont get any real answers. Ive requested a block and no action has been taken. This affects my debt, my debt to income, mortgage applications, and i am not responsible for this. As a consumer under the fair credit act it should not be this difficult for a young single mother of XXXX XXXX XXXX trying to get her finances in order and work on raising her credit. It is incredibly discouraging and i have given up disputing it multiple times but it is just not fair.

The conspicuous lack of concrete evidence substantiating its reliability, coupled with the circulation of unverified information, constitutes a flagrant violation of the statutory provisions outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). Such regulatory non-compliance is not merely disconcerting but also vexing, considering the paramount importance of adherence to legal mandates. Consequently, I emphatically endorse the prompt deletion of this account in alignment with the stipulated regulations, unless credible evidence is promptly furnished to affirm its authenticity. The failure to promptly rectify this matter further compounds the exasperation stemming from the disregard for legal protocols.
