Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (CA)

I was once an authorized user on XXXX credit card account ( ending in XXXX ). My association with this account has been terminated and I am not, nor have I ever been financially responsible for the debt associated with it. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received written notification from XXXX that I am no longer an authorized user of the account. I requested that Equifax remove the account from my credit report via their online dispute process. I disputed the account on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. Each time I've disputed the account, Equifax reports : [ " We have researched the credit account. The results are : WE VERIFIED THAT THIS ITEM BELONGS TO YOU. '' ] I received notification from Equifax that they are unable to remove the account from my credit report because XXXX continues to verify that the item belongs to me. Equifax has updated the account as " account ownership terminated '' however Equifax informed me that the account would remain on my credit report due to not only receiving verfication from XXXX that the account belongs to me but also due to XXXX continuing to report monthly historical information of the account to my Equifax credit report. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a letter to the XXXX Credit Bureau Disputes department requesting information and requesting that they discontinue any and all monthly reporting of the account to Equifax due to my non-ownership of the account. I have not received communication from XXXX since my request.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (FL)

CFPB + Experian, Why are you refusing to fix errors on my credit report, that I have provided you proof are wrong, with a letter from the credit card company stating the same thing? 

You are allowing errors on my credit report - that I demand are fixed per law. 

I AGAIN filed this complaint number XXXX located here : https : //portal.consumerfinance.gov/consumer/s/complaint-detail # XXXX XXXX ) I provided a letter from XXXX Card ( attached AGAIN ) that told you to change the hard inquiry to a soft inquiry on date : XX/XX/XXXX. THE CREDIT CARD COMPANY TOLD YOU TO CHANGE THIS FROM A HARD PULL TO A SOFT PULL. By law you are not allowed to do as you want - you need to change this from a hard credit inquiry to a soft credit inquiry immediately. They also sent you the same letter dated XX/XX/XXXX and as I type this XX/XX/XXXX you still refuse. 

This is copy and pasted from the attached letter from teh credit card XXXX : " An application was submitted on XX/XX/XXXX, using information verified to you. You notified us on XX/XX/XXXX, that this application was not submitted by you, and we have marked the application as XXXX. '' We also asked the credit reporting agencies to mask the credit inquiry from your credit report, which means it will only be seen by you and the reporting agency and not by any other organization reviewing your report. We sent the enclosed confirmation letter dated XX/XX/XXXX. '' XXXX ) I provided you PROOF that my XXXX  XXXX credit card ( attached again ) was opened on XX/XX/XXXX and has been paid on time each month. Every single month needs a check mark indicating as paid on time. XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX NEED TO HAVE A CHECK MARK AS PAID ON TIME. 

Experian, you are required to change the hard credit inquiry to a soft credit inquiry as stated in ( # 1 ) above as well as have a check mark on every single month ( # 2 ) has been opened and paid on time. 

Attached to this complaint are : - Drivers license - Social security card - Mailing address - Complaint letter- XXXX letter

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (NC)

Only AFTER filing CFPB complaint number XXXX in XXXX of XXXX was I able to get Synchrony Bank to accept my XXXX  which was sent to them on XXXX separate occasions. Only after contact with the CFPB did Synchrony Bank accept the XXXX and close the account ( which was in the name of my father and is now in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX NC ) .. On XX/XX/XXXX I received an invoice yet again for a " Membership Fee '' for my fathers account. I called XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX and entered my fathers account number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and through an automated response I was told that there " is a {$0.00} balance and the account is closed. '' On XX/XX/XXXX I was sent a new bill from Synchrony Bank with the same account number with {$100.00} XXXX XXXX and {$30.00} past due. This is outrageous and Synchrony Bank was dishonest in their previous response to my original CPFB complaint. They stated that they contacted me and I was unavailable. That is not accurate : They left me a voicemail message which I promptly returned the next business day and they never tried to contact me again. Now they have RE-OPENED THE ACCOUNT, and are sending me invoices, which makes no sense if the account was closed and there was a {$0.00} balance on the XXXX of XXXX.
