[ Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Subject : Incorrect Information Reporting on Credit Bureau Dear Sir/Madam , I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to bring to your attention a persisting issue regarding the incorrect information that has been reported by credit bureaus from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. Despite my attempts to rectify the situation, the credit bureaus continue to report inaccurate details, including incorrect amounts and dates. 

I have recently taken steps to address this matter by contacting the credit bureaus and providing them with the necessary documentation and evidence to support the correction of the inaccuracies in my credit report. However, to my dismay, their response has been unsatisfactory, as the incorrect information persists on my credit report. 

The inaccuracies reported by the credit bureaus have had a significant negative impact on my financial profile and creditworthiness. This has proven to be highly detrimental, as it has affected my ability to secure favorable interest rates, obtain credit facilities, and even hindered my chances of gaining employment in certain sectors that require a thorough credit check. 

I kindly request the assistance of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in rectifying this matter. I believe that it is within your jurisdiction to intervene and ensure that the credit bureaus accurately report my credit information. I am confident that with your involvement, a resolution can be reached, and my credit report can be updated to reflect the correct and accurate information. 

Please note that I am available to provide any additional information or documentation required to facilitate the investigation and resolution of this matter. Additionally, I understand that certain personal information may be necessary later in the process for identification purposes, and I am prepared to provide such information when requested. 

I would greatly appreciate your prompt attention to this matter, as it has caused significant distress and inconvenience. I trust in the abilities of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to ensure that consumers like myself receive fair treatment and accurate reporting of their credit information. 

Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to a favorable resolution to this matter and appreciate your efforts in assisting me.

Issue: Closing an account — Can't close your account
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (IL)

An account was fraudulently opened in my name at Bank of America on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX. 

Immediately I attempted to contact BofA but they did not accept calls very odd. I had no information on this account as I did not open it. I tried several times until XXXX local central time. 

I decided to go to a bank branch. The branch told me to call the phone number. 

They also could not reach the main office or the fraud line. At XXXX I had a conversation with Bank of America in which they told me they closed the account They didnt. I called back XX/XX/XXXX. Talked to someone new, sir your account is still active. I feel extended uncomfortable sharing any information over the phone with B of A. Finally, they say my account is closed but will not provide written proof. This is one of two reasons i am writing the cfpb. 

Second, Im a XXXX XXXX  by trade. I can not believe or begin to describe the number of failures Bank of America had in my interactions with them and how the person who stole my identity could have easily out smarted me due to their terrible policy. 

First, all telephone verification for my identity using the exact same information as the fraudster is unfathomable dumb. How do they know Im the real person? They refuse to do anything in person.

Second, when I went to the branch they showed me the interactions the fraudulent actor had with Bank of America. It was a colossal failure. Their verification of my email address did not work but they still opened the account and allowed them to switch emails dont believe me? I have a picture. Im not sure whats worse, that i could take a picture or that two factor authentication is worthless at bank of america.

Finally, the branch manager admitted thousands of people had come in with the same complaint. He thought it was no big deal because no money was taken
