Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (GA)

Accounts on my consumer report have been linked to identity theft, and I never provided written authorization, including a wet signature, for their inclusion. I recently communicated with your organization about this matter, and I am formally requesting the prompt blocking and removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence has caused significant emotional and financial distress, as they inaccurately represent my credit history and responsibilities.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Old information reappears or never goes away
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (FL)

TransUnion and the other Credit Reporting Agencies continue to allow old expired disputed and deleted information to reappear with the most bare information available. 

TransUnion is reporting XXXX XXXX  Account number XXXX as an Open Account Opened XX/XX/XXXX with a balance of {$270.00}. 

TransUnion either knows or should know that XXXX XXXX Account number XXXX Date of first Delinquency was XXXX of XXXX. 

TransUnion 's gross neglect is costing me 28 points on my FICO score and ensuring that the expired debt will continue to appear on my credit report well after it is allowed to. 

The last round of disputes TransUnion address was less than 6 months ago ... How do I build generational wealth if TransUnion is allowed to Vandalize my credit report with impunity? 

I'm a single mother of a XXXX year old, I just want to buy a house to leave more then what was left for me ... seriously at what point does this get old?

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (GA)

To whom it is concerned : To say I am vexed with Bank of America is an understatement! I have been a credit card holder with Bank of America for a couple of years now, never once have I been 30 days late on any of my cards that I hold with them. I purchased something with one of my cards in XXXX of 2023 due to rising inflation Ive been making my minimum payments due on time every month, XX/XX/2023 I made a payment of XXXX I was in the process of applying for a mortgage loan recently only to review my credit cards and notice that Bank of America thought it would be okay to lower my available credit limit from XXXX dollars to XXXX dollars, after bringing it to there attention I was told that it was because of my credit score, and Delinquent account. As stated above I have never been late on any of my credit cards and I have had a XXXX or more credit score for more than a year. Bank of America has deliberately reduced my credit limit causing my credit score to drop some XXXX points then when asked to setback my previous credit limit Im being pushed into a credit audit to see if I qualify for the credit limit that I was already approved for to begin with. Now Im being told they would have to do a credit pull to see if I qualify for a credit increase! This is clearly predatory behavior on Bank of Americas part this has put tremendous stress on me and my family due to the fact that I may have missed an opportunity to acquire a property that was soon to under contract. Bank of America has also not acted in good faith towards its consumer I would like for them to be held accountable for their actions.
