I opened a checking account on XX/XX/XXXX with the offer of " Get up to {$400.00} Let 's do the math ''. {$300.00} to be rewarded after depositing {$500.00} within 60 days. The other {$100.00} I did not opt to participate in. Bonus XX/XX/XXXX, I called to inquire why I had not received my bonus as XXXX statement cycles have already passed. The agent acknowledged that I have fulfilled all the requirements of the offer and that the bonus would be deposited at the end of the month. The phone call was recorded like they mention at the beginning so there is no question. 

In the fine print of the offer it says to " take a screenshot of this page as proof ''. Therefore, I have provided further proof that I registered for this offer and fulfilled the terms as stated by the last agent phone call on XX/XX/XXXX. 

XX/XX/XXXX passed and I did not receive the bonus deposit. 

Sunday XX/XX/XXXX I made a phone call to citizens bank. They claimed I needed an " offer code '' which there was no mention of during the application. The online offer was a direct link which I used to apply. I also retained the offer screenshot as shown in the fine print for my proof which they didn't accept. Instead they opt to start an " investigation '' which would be resolved within XXXX business days. XXXX business days past and nothing. 

Citizens bank defrauded me into opening a bank account and made interest off my deposit.

It is highly likely that the significance of the material facts will become abundantly clear, and you will be required to compensate me for your negligence.

XXXX XXXX XXXX is reporting inaccurate information in regards to debt I do not owe them and is in violation of the Privacy Act of 1974 and the Fair Credit Report Act. The FCRA states that consumer reporting agencies are responsible for respecting a consumer 's privacy in regards to non-public personal information. Additionally, any information reported must be with the consumers WRITTEN CONSENT per 15 USC 1681 section 604 ( a ) section 2 and the information MUST BE ACCURATE. I have NOT provided XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX ANY written consent to publish my information. XXXX XXXX XXXX is in violation of 15 USC 1681 b and c because they are improperly using my consumer report and not meeting information requirement standards in regards to adverse information. In fact XXXX XXXX XXXX is committing identity theft as defined by 12 CFR 1022.3 because they are using my personal information without authority to do so or my consent. By using my personal information without my written consent they are in violation of 5 USC 552a. I have no contract with them and I have never done business with them. I did contact them requesting information to validate the accounts, and provide the original contracts and they have not done so. I have also received notices from 3rd parties which claim to have gotten my information from XXXX XXXX XXXX which is another violation of 15 USC 1681. XXXX XXXX XXXX reports information on accounts XXXX and XXXX I cant verify to XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax because they have reported inconsistent data across all 3 of these reporting agencies. I have never paid them anything ( because I do not owe them ) yet they have reported I made a payment on XX/XX/XXXX and that my account is both open and closed. They have been reporting inaccurate information since XX/XX/XXXX and are in violation of 12 CFR 1016.1 as I have received NO OPT out notices. These discrepancies also show that XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX are in violation of 15 USC 1681e compliance procedures which requires them to verify information and ensure information reported is accurate. Any and all consent to Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX in regards to these accounts whether verbal, non-verbal, written, implied or otherwise is revoked. Lastly, XXXX XXXX XXXX is attempting to collect a debt I do not owe them and on accounts that have been charged off by the original creditor ( XXXX ) Per the IRS charge offs ( the debt associated with those accounts ) are defined as income and income does not get reported on a consumer report. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX are 3rd parties reporting inaccurate information on my consumer credit report. This problem must be addressed immediately.

As of XX/XX/XXXX my loan payment through MOHELA was indicated as {$210.00}. This was not a problem and I could pay it without any issues. I made the payment without any problems. Then I was notified that my loans were in forbearance until XXXX. 

It is now XX/XX/XXXX and my loan amount has somehow jumped to {$350.00}, which is {$140.00} more than what I originally agreed to paying. I have applied for an income driven repayment plan at this point But this is unethical and wrong on MOHELAs part.

Company: CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION (MD)

On XX/XX/XXXX I paid {$120.00} and the week prior I paid {$110.00}, totaling {$230.00}. I was supposed to pay {$210.00} on XX/XX/XXXX after my car was repossessed on XX/XX/XXXX. I paid them {$640.00} on XX/XX/XXXX and claimed the car from the repo agent on XX/XX/XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX while XXXX, a rider attacked me and XXXX put my Driver app on hold prohibiting my from making money in order to pay my bills. I spoke to XXXX at Credit Acceptance and she told me to pay {$290.00} by the XXXX and call back to make new arrangements. When I called today, XX/XX/XXXX a guy named XXXX said I needed to pay {$370.00} or my car would be disabled by tomorrow, Fri XX/XX/XXXX. I told him about my dispute with XXXX  over my account being reported as " closed '' when in fact I just made 3 payments over the last 45 or so days and still had the car. He insisted my car would be disabled and offered no further help. I called back and asked for a Supervisor and a guy named XXXX took the call. He listened as I explained my situation and told him I was hired by a new employer and could begin making full payments once I was on payroll in XX/XX/XXXX. I also stated I wanted to make small payments from my XXXX earning since my app was back on. He then told me that " I hear you, but there's nothing I can do but notate your intentions. If {$370.00} isn't paid by tomorrow, your car could be disabled. '' Which is it, {$370.00} or {$370.00}? When Credit Acceptance reps don't threaten to disable the car in an attempt to force struggling customers to make larger payments, the company send a repo agent to force even larger payments and suggests I " ask someone to help me. '' I was lucky to get {$640.00} from a friend in XXXX. I'm not as lucky this month. I believe this company repossess cars fraudently, and not in compliance with the laws or financing agreement entered into between consumers and the company. They're deceptive. I simply want more time to pay and a more reasonable payment agreement based on the change in my financial ability since losing the XXXX income and waiting for my 1st pay check once I start the new job on XX/XX/XXXX. Any help the CFPB can offer is appreciated.
