" I was shocked and devastated to see credit inquiries without my knowledge. I have reached out to the creditors to ask the following but they have FAILED to provide such.

Inquiry Details : Ask the creditor to provide specific details about the inquiry, such as the date it was made, the purpose of the inquiry and the type of credit product or service associated with the inquiry.

Application Documentation : Request copies of any credit applications or other documents related to the inquiry. This may include application forms, agreements, or disclosures that you would have completed or received when applying for credit.

Authorization Documentation : Ask the creditor to provide evidence of your authorization for the inquiry. This could include signed consent forms, agreements, or disclosures that demonstrate you provided permission for the creditor to access your credit report.

Communication Records : Request copies of any correspondence or communication between you and the creditor regarding the inquiry. This may include emails, letters, or notes documenting your interactions with the creditor.

Internal Records : Ask the creditor to provide internal records or notes related to the inquiry, including any decision-making processes or reasons for initiating the inquiry.

Identity Verification : If identity theft is a concern, request verification measures taken by the creditor to confirm your identity before initiating the inquiry. This may include verification of personal information or identity documents provided during the application process.

Compliance Documentation : Inquire about the creditor 's compliance with relevant laws and regulations governing credit inquiries, such as the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Equal Credit Opportunity Act ( ECOA ).

I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (TX)

I had multiple health bills last year and got behind on my Bank of America Credit card. So, I set up monthly payments on the due date. When the first payment did not go through, I assumed it had something to do with my banking institution and not the credit card company. I called back in XX/XX/2024 to set up payments to get back on track and make sure my banking information was correct for monthly payments. I was able to use the monthly payment once and XXXX of XXXX I was able to manually pay the past due amount of the card and was current. I made sure to ask the representative that took the payment in XXXX if I would remain on the monthly payment plan. I was assured that on the due date each month, they would deduct {$180.00} from my banking account. 
Today, XX/XX/XXXX, I received a message my account was a month passed due and when I went online to view my account my XXXX payment failed. I called my banking institution, and they informed me twice that there were no transactions made from Bank of America since XX/XX/2024. So, I proceeded to call Bank of America and after talking to XXXX different departments and getting no explanation to why my payment failed, they hung up on me. I called back and spoke to collections and all they said was it failed, and they did not know why. I spoke to the Collection supervisor that waived the past due amount and we changed the banking information and set up the payment plan to deduct XXXX 's amount on this Thursday XX/XX/XXXX and then set up monthly payments for a third time to deduct {$180.00} on the XXXX of every month. He again informed me that in their computer system the only information they have is the payment failed. There is nothing to help me with the reasons behind the fail. 
I need to let you know that my account is closed at Bank of America but after speaking with other coworkers, I'm not the first to have issues with Bank of America. Right now, I don't have a good credit score to move my balance to another card and I'm a little afraid that my payments are not going to my credit card balance. I need to know what to do next with my balance and where to go with Bank of America
