Upon checking my consumer report today, I have seen that there is fraudulent information and accounts specifically the XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX. Just so you know, I never lived in this apartment. My information was exposed in the Equifax data breach and I am a victim of multiple fraud. This has caused me so much that I can't even move forward with my life because of this situation. 

The other two credit agencies are not reporting and deleted these accounts due to fraud. Equifax is the only agency who is reporting this apartment and they should remove it as what the other agencies are doing. I attach screenshots. This needs to be cleared ASAP!

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Problem with personal statement of dispute
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (NC)

For 5 years I have been disputing two accounts on my credit report from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. In 2018 I had a payment arrangement for a creditor set to draft their payment out of my bank account. I set up this payment arrangement with the intention of having the funds available on the day of the draft. Due to medical issues that made me unable to work I had to withdraw the funds to pay only our necessities which left my account empty by the time the creditor tried to draft the payment from my account. Since I knew I did not have overdraft protection on my account I assumed the transaction would just fail and me and the creditor would just work out another payment plan. Unfortunately, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX decided to do a " one time courtesy pay '' to the creditor on my behalf without my knowledge or consent. This caused my account to go into the negative and forced me to switch my direct deposit to another bank because I could not afford for them to take all that money back when I was paid the following month. I have gone into the bank, called the corporate office, disputed the charges and I still can not have this charge removed from my credit report even after they could not provide me with any documentation showing that i was aware the bank could make one time payments even if you dont have overdraft protection ( which i did not have overdraft protection ). They also could not provide my signed consent to this process. XXXX XXXX  may have assumed they were doing me a favor with this action but i have been living with the impact on my finances and credit report for 5 years now. Not only did they make this unauthorized payment on my behalf but instead of this being one account on my credit report they have split the balance of the payment and reported 2 accounts. One with a balance of {$410.00} and a second with a balance of {$64.00}. I was sure when I explained this to the credit bureaus they would find that XXXX XXXX  had no authorization from me allow this transaction to go through and remove the two negative accounts but every dispute comes back in favor of XXXX XXXX. I am asking one final time for proof that shows my knowledge and consent to this " courtesy payment '' practice from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. If they can not provide proof I would like the 2 accounts removed from all of my credit reports and a payment for the amount on both accounts for the 5 years of damage to my credit due to their unauthorized assistance.

Ive called TD Bank several times to close an account they allowed to be opened in my name. TD Bank allowed an account to opened online using my information. They refused to provide information as to how they allowed that to happen!! I informed them that I want the account closed! TD Bank then tells me I need to physically go into a TD Bank location to verify who I am! But its confusing because TD Bank allowed an account to be opened without verifying!!

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (OH)

I opened a credit card through Value City Furniture/Synchrony Bank for the purchase of a couch. I made my monthly payments on time and have owed a XXXX balance on this card for SEVERAL months prior to receiving a letter on XX/XX/2021 from Synchrony Bank stating they decided to close my card due to reasons that do not apply to me. I haven't owed them, I paid on time and yet months later they ran a credit score on me and made the decision to close my card based on my score being XXXX ( which their documentation states XXXX is within range ). So they damaged my credit score further by this decision. I want that corrected. Customer service told me today when contacting them " no one will ever be able to fix the error, the business decision was made based on the details in the letter, I can not help you ''.

This is BAD business to damage my credit when I was paid in full and on time with this bank. There seems to be no one to contact within the bank that made that decision to appeal or discuss this with, also BAD business. 
I recently was diagnosed with stage XXXX XXXX XXXX and owe approx. XXXX in medical bills. Other than that I pay my bills on time so why can a bank take from your credit but not repair a problem or points back when a consumer doesn't warrant the bad credit mark? Who can I report Synchrony Bank to for making this decision and damaging my credit score when I was paid in full with XXXX balance?

There are XXXX credit cards on my credit report. These cards are being reported as charge offs and/or collections. This is affecting my ability to obtain a much needed loan. I have contacted the credit card companies and they claim to have verified the debt. I don't know how they could verify the debt when my social security number was used to obtain the cards but at an address that I have never lived at. My social security number is connected to to my current address which I have been at since XXXX. I have filed a policy report with the XXXX Sheriff 's Office Case # XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was taken out on XX/XX/XXXX using the address XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, the balance is {$980.00} I have never lived in Georgia and Social Security and my tax returns prove that. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was opened on XX/XX/XXXX the balance is XXXX. This card was opened under my maiden name of XXXX. I was married and changed my name in XXXX, again proven by my tax returns and social security number. The next account is XXXX XXXX taken out XX/XX/XXXX with a balance of {$980.00}. Again, this is not my account and I am not responsible for this bill. My identity was stolen, my social security number has been compromised and these banks are NOT verifying the person who is making the online applications.
