I have been on the phone all day with these crooked people from XXXX. I have been explaining to them that I have been affected by the data breaches and I need to have the information removed immediately. They tell me that all they can do is file a dispute, then tell me the account numbers are missing from my FTC report. There is no law stating that there has to be a account number on the FTC report. I request a supervisor and the representatives will hang up on me or hold the call and stop talking. I have had this experience with Employee XXXX and XXXX. It is sad that i have to request their employee number just to reference them after the call ends because they will not get a supervisor. I talked to XXXX supervisors today and I have been on at least XXXX calls XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (TX)

I am a victim of identity theft. On XX/XX/2022, a hard inquiry appeared on my Equifax credit report. When I saw that on my credit report, I immediately called the lender, XXXX XXXX. I told XXXX XXXX that the application done under my name was fraud ( application ID number : XXXX ). The XXXX XXXX representative I spoke with stated that they flagged the application as fraudulent, which resulted in the application being denied -- good! However, I went to Equifax 's website to dispute the hard inquiry from XXXX XXXX that I mentioned at the very beginning. After clicking " submit dispute '', Equifax 's website stated that they will investigate the dispute and contact the lender ( XXXX XXXX ) and it could take 30 days. However, XXXX minutes later, I get a notification from Equifax stating that my dispute has been denied. Their reason? " INQUIRIES ARE A FACTUAL RECORD OF FILE ACCESS AND WILL REMAIN ON THE EQUIFAX CREDIT FILE TWO YEARS FROM THE REPORTED DATE OF THE INQUIRY ''. I am a victim of identity theft! Equifax did not even contact the lender ( XXXX XXXX ) to investigate my dispute. XXXX XXXX agrees that this is fraud. Why? Because I was the one who called XXXX XXXX to let them know that it was fraud!

Subject : Unfulfilled Promotional Bonus on American Express XXXX XXXX XXXX Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), I am writing to raise a concerning issue regarding my American Express XXXX XXXX XXXX credit card. In XX/XX/2023, I applied for this card enticed by a promotion promising new cardholders XXXX bonus miles upon fulfilling specific spending requirements. 

Here 's the summary : I applied for the American Express XXXX XXXX XXXX card on XX/XX/2023, primarily due to a promotional offer, which assured new cardholders XXXX bonus miles upon meeting specific spending criteria. 

I diligently met the spending requirement within the promotion 's time frame, providing documented proof of this. 

Unfortunately, my attempts to resolve this with American Express through online chat and phone support have been unfruitful. 

I expected to receive the XXXX bonus miles as promised, but they have not been credited to my account. 

I request your assistance in investigating this matter and ensuring that American Express honors their promotional commitment by granting me the XXXX bonus miles. Your prompt attention to this issue would be greatly appreciated. 

Thank you for your assistance. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

I am aware that you have been responding to many of the disputes, complaints, and challenges with pre-written standard form letters, despite the precise information consumers have provided. I am well aware that this is XXXX ; as each consumer dispute must be addressed individually and dealt with in accordance with its particular merits. 

My letters have written and generated using accessible software that is available to everyone. If you choose not to process or address my letters, you are violating 15 U.S. Code 5 1681i. And it is against the law to delay the processing of letters from consumers based on the assumption that assistance from a third party may be available. This does not qualify as a legal exception. I am the sole author of any letters bearing my name, or they have been written by my advisors with my complete knowledge and consent. I understand that there is no requirement for you to request a Power of Attorney in order to delay processing consumer letters. If you fail to process my letters promptly, I will consider it as a deliberate disregard for my consumer rights. In such a case, I will be compelled to contact my attorney and pursue legal action. 

According to the FCRA Section XXXX ( XXXX XXXX. XXXX ( l ) and the accepted XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX data fild reporting, I have the right to dispute any information on my credit report that I believe is not correct. It is essential that all data included in a consumer 's file is properly documented and validated before it is made available for use by creditors. Therefore, I take this matter seriously. The allegations of delinquency and derogatory information against me are entirely false, I won't stand for any misinformation being associated with my name and fiancial history and I am determined to FIGHT back with ALL my strength! The accuracy of your credit report is crucial. The allegations listed do not meet the federal or state requirements for reporting and can not be substantiated. I challenge these claims due to their failure to comply with basic reporting standards, which would provide me with greater confidence in the accuracy of the information presented. It is your responsibility to maintain and report data with complete accuracy and compliance. You must not report any claims that you know do not meet regulatory requirements. It is crucial that we ensure all claims are accurate and reported in the appropriate format as mandated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and reporting standards such as XXXX XXXX. I kindly request that you handle this matter with utmost care and diligence.
