Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (NJ)

I wrote a letter to XXXX, EQUIFAX and XXXX on XX/XX/2024 to dispute this accounts XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX, I stated the inaccuracies appeared on each of this account. I was never late to any of these accounts. I received a letter from XXXX stating that the letter is not from me. I created sent out that letter with my ID 's and some information so how did they verify that it is not from me. They didn't even mark these accounts as being in dispute. Theres a part of the law that requires them to at least update the status of the account and label it as being in dispute. They failed to validate a debt at my request, which is a FDCPA violation and they continued to report a disputed debt to the Credit Bureaus : another FCRA violation. Its clear to me no proper investigation actually took place which is negligence on their part my livelihood is at stake and this inaccuracy is causing me great stress. I will attached the letters that I sent to them and also the letter that I received from XXXX.

Company: Click n' Close, Inc. (WA)

We have tried through multiple companies & different people ways to save my Home to no avail! Id lost his teaching job due to Covid. After battling unemployment & trying to regain employment Ive sadly continued hitting dead ends. With No help or any kind of needed information which could be available in helping me save my home. Ive been treated rudely & also feel like Ive had my valuable time wasted when it couldve been used in whatever I do need to be focusing on to save my house instead of what Ive been dealing with. With my home mortgage provider I was given total of only 6 months of the offered forbearance program, instead of XXXX months that Ive read others had been given. I cant understand why I wasnt offered such an option as well? Instead Ive been thrown into foreclosure. Weve been talking to home counselor & have been getting a run around, no answers, no phone calls back or emailing until weve sent many out. We were told today that weve taken too long and not sure if they can or cant assist us. We owe {$190000.00} and home is worth {$500000.00}. Under no circumstance would it make sense to have our home go to auction. Due to not having employment makes it impossible to get an equity line of credit or refinance. Im a member of the XXXX XXXX in Washington state. For my income I receive a per-capita of $ 2400 monthly for my income including Along w/2 renters at {$650.00} a month whom Ive had for over 2 years plus.

Combines income is $ XXXX $ XXXX {$3700.00} monthly income. I REALLY need some assistance please. Ive read all these other options offered from Covid relief and cant understand why Im not qualified for any of them? I feel like the people Ive spoken to have only caused me to waste time.

Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION (MD)

Truist had offered a {$400.00} banking bonus. I had created an account but was not allowed to login in, make a deposit or anything as truist had never sent account information or a account creation link. I had waited to receive my debit card to create the account, as truist asks for this information. I never received it. The account was almost like it was never created. I had created another account, was able to login and deposit money. I had spoken with customer service on multiple occasions, asking if XXXX account had the bonus applied, they all assured me it was. 

I meet the criteria, and truist now says because I had created a first account, they had refused me access to it, that they can not pay out the bonus. 

This is false advertising and seems deliberate on truists part. Lure customers in with a bonus, refuse access to the account, then deny the bonus.
