I bought an American Express gift card for {$500.00} on XX/XX/2023. When I tried to use it, it had XXXX balance. I called American Express, and I made the dispute sending them all the documents they asked for. I called several times but did not get any help. So today I called back. They had closed the dispute saying it had been resolved They said they refunded someone that called but would not say who. The card has never left my hand. No one else has it. I really need a refund or at least a card to replace this one.

I have read that the Credit Bureaus are bound to comply with the FCRA regulation section 605b but despite all my efforts to inform Equifax about the theft of my Identity and that the items were never mine, they never cared nor paid any attention to my Disputes. They became negligent of the FCRA law and continued reporting this information on my Credit File without Proper Verification nor Investigation. I came to the conclusion that the Credit Bureaus are not afraid to break Federal law thus they chose to be lazy and neglected my appeals. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( which complies with FCRA Section 603 ( q ) ( 4 ) which states ( 4 ) The term " identity theft report '' has the meaning given that term by rule of the Bureau, and means, at a minimum, a report ( A ) that alleges an identity theft ; ) B ) that is a copy of an official, valid report filed by a consumer with an appropriate Federal, State, or local law enforcement agency, including the United States Postal Inspection Service, or such other government agency deemed appropriate by the Bureau ; and ( C ) the filing of which subjects the person filing the report to criminal penalties relating to the filing of false information if, in fact, the information in the report is false. ) The following report included this language but Equifax is neglecting to process it to the letter of the law. Please see they are held accountable for as this is impacting my life in emotionally, physically & financially... and I would truly not what to pursue a legal remedy... I need the Item removed now!

This is to follow up the presence of these late open accounts inaccurately reflects my financial history and has the potential to adversely impact my creditworthiness and financial opportunities. Despite my persistent efforts to address this matter, it is disheartening to encounter continued obstacles and delays in achieving a satisfactory resolution.

It is unacceptable that despite multiple attempts, the late open accounts remain unresolved, raising questions about the reliability and accuracy of your record-keeping processes. 

I urge you to prioritize this matter with the utmost urgency and take immediate steps to correct the late open account entries on my record.

I am writing to formally dispute the presence of fraudulent information on my credit report. Upon reviewing my report, I discovered accounts that are not mine and are the results of identity theft. These fraudulent accounts have already been deleted from the records of other credit bureaus, highlighting the discrepancy in your reporting. I have contacted the banks associated with these accounts via phone call, and they have confirmed that the accounts were fraudulent and have removed them from their records. Despite submitting the required FTC report, the accounts continues to appear on my credit report with your bureau. The presence of these fraudulent accounts tarnishes my credit history and could have serious implications for my financial future. I demand that you promptly investigate this matter and remove the fraudulent accounts from my credit report.

In XX/XX/XXXX I obtained a home mortgage loan with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ). A credit report inquiry by XXXX revealed one derogatory line on my credit report ( Item 29 XXXX : see attached ) that was incorrectly still present in my record despite the fact that this debt was satisfied ( paid off ) and signed off by the County Judge ( Order of dismissal with Prejudice ) one year prior ( XX/XX/XXXX Court Order : see attached ). 
I attempted to dispute and resolve this issue directly with the Credit Reporting Agencies with no success. 
I am about to apply for a new home mortgage loan and before I do that I would like to ensure that this derogatory line-item is permanently removed from my file with all 3 major credit reporting agencies. 
I am reaching out to CFPB to help me solve satisfactorily this issue. 

Thank you.

They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out.

I have items passed on that should be taken out or blocked. Per FCRA segment 605, Credit Bureaus are expected to eliminate any records recorded on an ID THEFT REPORT. I've proactively remembered this report from a past letter and am including it again. I've educated my lawyer regarding my aims and they are eager to consider that Credit Bureaus are responsible for their tenacious rebelliousness.

I am trying to get rid of all these hard inquires and late payment accounts and anything in collections that I bringing my credit score down. 

In the past I have applied for car loans but not as much as what appears on my credit report. There are a total of maybe XXXX hard inquires ( if not more ), on my credit report and I no longer have a car nor have I gave dealerships the authorization to send my information to numerous lenders. As far as I was concerned, it was only through " in house financing '', and it seems as if the dealerships did not comply. 

I also recently just paid off a old credit card that had an outstanding balance, and it is still showing up on my credit report as open and more than 90 days late. I received a confirmation from XXXX XXXX stating they did receive the {$120.00} I paid to them to close the account and have it up to date. 

I also had a XXXX XXXX XXXX loan open which had an outstanding balance of over {$1500.00} due to my gap insurance at the time not covering the full balance left. For XXXX years I was able to buy XXXX other cars without the dealerships noticing that open car loan. I showed proof of a total loss letter to dealerships and that is how I got passed that and was able to drive off with a car. 
However, now I am seeking to buy another car, this " open loan '' that I did pay the settlement offer too of {$320.00} ; it is still being showed as open and that I owe {$1500.00}. 

I really want all of these removed from my credit report. I find the inconsistencies absurd, I do understand that credit reports are updated every month, but it just seems as if my credit score has not made any major changes. 

Any hard inquiries from almost XXXX years ago should be removed and fall off. 

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting act, I feel as if my rights were violated / 15 U.S.C 1681 Section 602 A. States I have a right to privacy.

15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 604 A. Section 2 also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written instructions.
