Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (CA)

I have disputed all 14 derogatory marks on my credit report to XXXX XXXX and the said they would be removing these items but have not done so. Experian should no longer be reporting these items on my report because they were paid and now closed. Why does Experian think they can continue to report something that I the consumer disagrees with? Experian is in violation of FCRA all of these accounts have not been active for over 10 to 12 years they need to be remove and they on keeping them on there to keep my credit score low. This system is not designed to help people but fail them. I am very disappointed in what has transpired with our XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: Phoenix Financial Services LLC (FL)

I had received a letter from Phoenix Financial Services at the end of XXXX over a debt that I was not familiar with from almost 6 years ago ( without any degree of verificaiton ). It said that I had until XX/XX/XXXX to respond or request verification before any action was going to be taken. Phoenix financial services began taking action to impact my credit score well before this date, and has been ignoring numerous requests that I've submitted on their website, as well as to their email system since early XXXX. I keep demanding verification of the debt and they continue to impact my credit score and attempt to collect. Phoenix financial services has not replied to me or tried to contact me in several months, it has been well over a month since I reached out to them and requested verificaiton and it is completely unacceptable. It is completely unfair that a collections agency can hold my credit score hostage for several months while refusing to speak to me and give me info about a debt that they refuse to verify.

This is a follow up to closed complaint XXXX TransUnion was to have removed a derogatory account from my credit report as I had documentation from the agency stating as such. 

Now, all of a sudden, my credit score with Trans Union has dropped by 47 points. That makes absolutely no sense to me. If they successfully removed / deleted a derogatory account, I should not have had a 47 point drop. 

I would appreciate this being dug into as I highly suspect the deletion of this account was done incorrectly on the Trans Union side

Bank of America is a scam. They dont allow transfers to external accounts with the type of account that I have, so the only way XXXX my money out of my account, because I dont like to keep my money in my BOA account because Im in the process of closing it! They are terrible. I have banked with them for 3 years. Never had a problem sending a XXXX to someone else, but when they see its being sent to another account that belongs to me, they keep putting my money under 24 hour review. I dont think thats a coincidence. No matter the amount. I tried to XXXX {$40.00}, and they held that one too. And when I called them, provided me with no reason as to why they keep flagging all my XXXX transactions to this account, and restricted me from being able to sign in online or in the app! Had to call the bank REPEATEDLY now for 2 reasons! To unrestrict my account and to tell me why my XXXX transactions are being put under review, when nothing is new or suspicious about the transaction or the recipient. Ive been on the phone for a total of XXXX hr and XXXX mins, with no resolve. Im going to manually remove my money from this account, like I was FORCED to do last time and then go manually put it into the account Ive been attempting to XXXX the money to. Talk about an inconvenience as a consumer! This bank is the worst!
