Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (PA)

I am writing to address the presence of unauthorized transactions in my consumer report, which I did not authorize or instruct. As a result, I formally request the blocking and removal of these accounts without any inaccuracies or misrepresentation of facts. Below, I have listed the specific accounts in question : It appears that your organization may be violating 15 U.S.C 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ), which prohibits a consumer report from solely containing information about transactions or experiences between the consumer and the entity reporting the information. 

This statute explicitly states that XXXX, as the reporting entity, should not include transactions or experiences associated with the line of credit extended between the consumer and the reporting entity in my consumer report. 

I urge you to promptly update my utilization to 5 % or below within 10 calendar days or remove all utilization from the mentioned accounts.

Furthermore, I request that you provide all documents on which you rely for reporting the referenced accounts, in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ). The information you are reporting is damaging to my reputation and adversely affecting my creditworthiness.

Therefore, I demand the removal of these accounts from my file within 30 days, as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), or verification of these accounts.

Additionally, along with the removal of erroneous and unverified information, kindly eliminate all non-account holding inquiries older than 30 days. 

Failure to provide a satisfactory response with the deletion of the mentioned utilization and inquiries will result in legal action against your company, for which I will seek {$1000.00} per violation : Defamation of Character Civil Liability Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 U.S.C 1681 violations for willful noncompliance - 616.

Company: KEYCORP (WV)

XXXX XXXX ( which is Key Bank ) advertised that by opening a Loyalty Checking account and receiving at least {$2500.00} in monthly direct deposits, customers would earn a monthly Loyalty Bonus, with no end date. Recently XXXX XXXX stopped honoring that promise. In XX/XX/year> I received a total of {$2500.00} direct deposits into my Loyalty Checking account ( see attached, showing a {$2000.00} direct deposit on XXXX, and another {$500.00} direct deposit on XXXX. XXXX XXXX itself clearly labeled each as a Direct Deposit, confirmed that the In previous months, I had received at least {$2500.00} of this exact type of monthly direct deposit ( labeled precisely the same way, and received from precisely the same depositor ) in and received the promised bonus, but the bonus did not post in early XXXX. I contacted XXXX XXXX, which said it would no longer honor those direct deposits, contrary to its advertisement. This bait-and-switch is misleading at best, as customers came to rely on XXXX XXXX to honor its own advertisement and its own labeling of deposits.

Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage — 
Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC (NY)

I want to express my frustration with working with Nationstar Mortgage { Mr.Cooper } as so its now called, in working with a Loan Modification on my subject property located in XXXX, New York. I 'm very certain that they changed their named to Mr.Cooper  because of all the lawsuits that they keep receiving due to mismanagement of files, and also for misdirecting clients and forcing some clients to loose their house to foreclosure due to not understanding the situation of the client. 
My complaint has been going on with Nationstar for a while. It started years ago with with a simple request of a Loan Modification due to my default in XXXX XXXX XXXX. All the time through the process, they kept requesting the same documentation over and over again with no results. They claim most of the time that documents were not received or mishandled. All the time we tried to contact them for an update, there is a different representative, not only did they not know what was going on with the file, but they could not find any updates, any documentation of my file. Most of the times they kept telling me that there was no current updates and that an account specialist will follow up with me and they never did. 
It is not my fault that I felt behind on my my mortgage and have caused this large debt to be accrued. I have done everything in my part as they have requested, until this date no resolution has been reached. I finally was able to execute a complete package, and have the correct income to qualify for my mortgage. I was able to rent part of my property and collect a rental income of {$2500.00} on a monthly basis. My daughter is able to give me a contribution to assist me with the daily expenses we have in the property and for the family. All I 'm looking for is for HELP. 
Now, Nationstar has placed a sales date on my property and is for XXXX XXXX XXXX. I do n't understand why they have placed a sales date, when I been doing a loan modification to save my home, you have a complete package with updated information for a review, and you do not want to open a template for a review my loan modification for a possible solution, all you want to is sell my house on foreclosure auction unless if I can reinstate. If I was able to reinstate the loan, I would not be asking you for help when I really need it. I believe you have been " dual tracking '' my case. If I was in process of a loan modification, foreclosure should have been placed on hold until a review is completed. You are against the law at the moment for not opening my case for a loan modification, and forcing me to foreclose. 
I believe its just not fair that you ca n't even give me the opportunity to have my file be reviewed for a loan modification, to give me an opportunity that I can show you I can afford my house, and have a win win situation not only for myself as your client, but for the investor of this loan.

I lodged a complaint against these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. Surprisingly, I haven't received any response or correspondence from the Bureaus, and they have already closed my complaint. Could you please explain why they closed my complaint without resolving the issue? Have they even acknowledged or verified my dispute? I need assurance that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report and validated the accounts. Can you provide details about the methods they used to verify my report? This situation is incredibly frustrating! It has been more than 30 days since I filed the complaint, and I expected these accounts to be updated by now. If they are not updated immediately, I will have no other option but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach.

I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding the ongoing and egregious violations of my consumer rights by Experian, XXXX, and XXXX. Upon reviewing my credit report, I have discovered numerous instances of personal information being reported without my consent, including fraudulent accounts, unauthorized addresses, incorrect names, and inaccurate dates of birth. Despite my repeated attempts to rectify these issues by reporting them to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), and the respective credit reporting agencies on more than XXXX occasions, the problem persists. Each time I bring these matters to the attention of the relevant authorities and companies, temporary remedies are applied, only for the same inaccuracies to resurface on my credit report shortly thereafter. This pattern of behavior has not only caused undue XXXX  and inconvenience but has also put my financial well-being and personal security at risk. It is unacceptable that these companies continue to disregard my rights as a consumer and fail to uphold their obligations under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Attached to this correspondence, you will find documentation supporting the validity of my claims, including correspondence with the aforementioned agencies and evidence of the recurring inaccuracies on my credit report. I urge you to take immediate action to address these issues and ensure that my consumer rights are upheld. I expect a prompt and thorough investigation into this matter, as well as the implementation of measures to prevent similar occurrences in the future. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your timely response and resolution of these issues.
