Issue: Getting a credit card — Card opened as result of identity theft or fraud
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (TX)

Starting XX/XX/XXXX, I received a bill from Home Depot asking me to pay for $ XXXX merchandise from a credit card I did not open. 
I called the phone numer on the statement and they transferred me to Citi bank. They said the card was opened and used in XX/XX/XXXX. That Home Depot store is in XXXX, XXXX  and I live in XXXX, XXXX. I was able to close the card and make fraud claim. However, I keep getting the bill asking me to pay for the amount I did not spend. 
I called them again and they said that they need to see my ID, so I faxed them my Driver 's License. They reopened the case after that. However after 1 or 2 months they sent me a letter saying that I was responsible for the amount and charges because this account was not fraudulently opened. 
I called their Security Operations again. This time they said that they needed me to answer some questions. After I went over 9 to 10 questions, they reopened the case again. After around one month, I received the same letter stating that I am responsible for the amount plus any late fee. 
I called them again today XX/XX/XXXX. After providing all the information, the person on the phone said that the date of birth on the account does not match my actual date of birth. What is the point of asking to see my ID then? 
I asked her what other information I need to provide to their investigation team. She said she did not have the answer for that. She said what she could do is to reopen the case again. 
I honestly can't trust the investigation team at Citi bank anymore. It's been almost a year now so that's why I'm writing this complaint to CFPB.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: FBC MORTGAGE, LLC (FL)

On XX/XX/2022 got the notification of the HAF department that I was approved for mortgage assistance for past due payments and an additional 6 months of forward payments. The approval letter has been sent to my mortgage company which is FBC Mortgage. My loan number is XXXX. The amount past due that was sent out to the mortgage company is {$10000.00}. This amount was sent out to FBC Mortgage in XX/XX/2022 and they still have not posted it on my account. I have been calling FBC Mortgage every week since XXXX and they always give me the same answer : they dont have it. I called the HAF department and they show the mortgage company has cashed their check. I dont understand how this could be possible. Its very unfair for them to be holding a check for more than 30 days now and having my loan to accrue more money in interests.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (SC)

I am writing to formally dispute a late payment entry that has appeared on my credit report. The report indicates a late payment in my credit report, which I strongly believe is erroneous and not verified. Throughout my financial history with the financial agencies I am doing business with, I have consistently met all payment deadlines without fail. Therefore, the presence of this late payment is undoubtedly a result of a billing error on the part of the creditor. I request a thorough investigation into this matter to verify the accuracy of the reported late payment and urge for its prompt correction. It is imperative that such inaccuracies are rectified swiftly, as they impact my financial standing and credibility. I have contacted the financial agencies in the last more than 30 days to seek clarification but I got no response because this is erroneously reported for they have provided NO PROOF that there was a REAL late payment. Your immediate attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.

I took out a loan with TD Auto finance in XX/XX/XXXX. I have made my payments on time. My payments were {$390.00}. I often paid more than my {$390.00} payment. In XXXX TD Auto Finance reduced my payments to {$190.00}. At first I continued to pay {$390.00}. and called the company to see why my payment amount had changed. I spoke with a XXXX who told me that I was over paid on my account. I initially wanted to continue to overpay at {$390.00} but I wasn't seeing the amounts that I was paying reflected in my bill. I started paying the amount that they billed me and they are now telling me that yes they changed the payment amount but I have to pay my original amount even though I am overpaid and don't see a reduction in my bill that matches how much I paid over my bill amount. The company has called me repeatedly for weeks, texted me and they are telling me that I have defaulted on my loan. I am paying the amount that they are sending me to pay each month. I can be reached at XXXX. I want to talk to a person and explain. 
Sincerely.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Public record information inaccurate
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (GA)

I o  btained my Transunion credit report on line. There were U. S. Bankruptcy Court items listed on my credit reports. Per the FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) : If the Credit Bureau can not VALIDATE the information with the ORIGINAL CREDITOR, they must remove said information from the consumer credit file.
The County Recorder of Deeds and the Bankruptcy Courts have also reviewed the Public Record section youre your Transunion Credit Bureau. They both mailed me letters which emphatically stated that they do NOT provide any information to credit reporting agencies, nor do they ever validate and/or confirm public records. It is the credit reporting agencies, and/or other third party providers who collect information regarding public cases from public records. Public records information is NEVER validated by the Recorder of Deeds nor the U. S. Court system due to the Fair Credit Reporting Agency PRIVACY LAW.
My inquiry to the County Recorder of Deeds and U. S. Bankruptcy Courts confirmed Transunion Credit Bureau has never validated or verified these public record entries on my credit report, neither will they ever be by them. They further stated while they are NOT liable or responsible for any MISUSE or INCORRECT public records, nor the distribution of said information, public records may, and oftentimes are, reported by third party sources unawares to the consumer, and in most cases, incorrectly. Considering the information indicating a Fair Credit Reporting Act violation, I need all tax lien and bankruptcy information currently showing under my social security number to be PERMANENTLY DELETED from my credit report immediately.
The Transunion Credit Bureau needs to provide me with copies of all documentation associated with these Public Record Accounts bearing either a court order to place this information in my credit report, or my authorization of release bearing my signature. In the meantime, to be in full compliance with the FCRA laws and guidelines, all the information listed under Public Records needs to be immediately deleted from the credit file you maintain under my name and social security number. Be further advised that I am closely monitoring my credit file. Per the Federal Law, you have exactly 30 days to complete this investigation as outlined per the Fair Credit Reporting Act 623 ( a ) ( 3 ).       See document attached from the courts.
