Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

Ive noticed that several deviations from mandatory reporting standards therefore the data in my report can not be accurate and complete! With that said, I deny your allegations and I challenge you to provide proof that you have the right to report this incomplete negative information on my credit report.

Per 15 U.S.C 1681e Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates.

According to 12 CFR Part 1022 ( Regulation V ) requires furnishers to : Furnish information concerning accounts or other relationships with a consumer that has integrity. 
Furnish information about accounts or other relationships with a consumer that is accurate.

C - Conduct reasonable investigations of consumer disputes According to XXXX, in order to make a lawful report, you must follow the Metro 2 compliance standards. 

Also as stated in the XXXX Any Deviation From These Standards Jeopardizes The Integrity of The Data. This means that any mistakes in reporting claims can make the information less accurate and it affects the accuracy of any federally regulated reports.

Therefore, I am invoking my rights to challenge these inaccurate and non-compliant items. Neglecting my demand will only prove that you DO NOT care about my rights as a consumer. Its NOT FAIR for you to report information that isnt confirmed to be ethical and meets the standards of certified reporting. Again, I am challenging these claims and asking for proof of the proper reporting standards. 

You are violating my rights! I have listed the concerns about your reporting in this document. It's not complete and does not meet my standards according to law, you must certify all aspects of required FCRA/ Metro 2 compliance which is done truthfully, correctly ( in a timely manner ), completely AND accurately as well - or else I would have to escalate these issues to the CFPB , FTC and my Attorney General.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CA)

This company refuses to remove or update their credit reporting entry on my Transunion credit report after being notified that I have filed for bankruptcy on XX/XX/2022. They still are showing false and erroneous information on my credit report regarding my account with them. They are showing that it was charged off as a bad debt when it should only show that it was included in my Bankruptcy and that it is a closed account with a XXXX balance on it. Also, they didn't report this account as being closed until three months after I had filed my bankruptcy, which means that they continued to keep on reporting my account as making late or no payments for three more months after the bankruptcy was filed thus harming my credit even more. They are in direct violation of my consumer rights and Federal laws by refusing to either remove or update the information that they are reporting about me on my credit reports. This debt was already disputed with Transunion and it came back as being a valid and accurate debt with no changes to my credit report information. Clearly they have lied to the Credit bureaus as well because I am in bankruptcy and they know this because it reflects this on the other credit bureaus but not on Transunion. This is the credit report entry they currently have on Transunion : Remarks Charged off as bad debt Dispute resolved ; reported by grantor

I started the process to remove a fraudulent inquiry over a year and a half ago, and they still haven't fixed it. I have first-class mailed the information they required Over five times. Every time I call them back, they claim that they need more than what was needed, even though the last person never mentioned it. I have spoken to managers, and each has different requirements on what needs to change or removed from the inquiry. It's affecting my credit, and I want it removed. I even sent in proof of the police report stating my wallet and identity were stolen.

Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (FL)

I owed a credit card debt to Citibank for around {$1300.00} including late fees. This happened during the pandemic. It ended up going to a collection agency. For some reason they put the debt at around {$1800.00}. Every time I would report the amount incorrect, they would claim it was and add on another XXXX XXXX dollars. Or if they noticed my credit rising, they would post the debt with a fresh date. Thereby they effectively kept my credit around the upper XXXX lowers XXXX. In XXXX of 2023  Citibank sent me a check, which the letter I still have. They said credit was due to my account, an obvious admission of the original amount of the debt being incorrect. During this time the collection agency XXXX XXXX sued me. I had no clue because I never received a subpoena, thereby they won by default cause I had no notification of any court date or case. I was left with $ XXXX {$600.00} checks biweekly. Whatever check the judge looked at had overtime, holiday pay, and I was temporarily exempt from taxes. They claimed I make almost {$2000.00} biweekly which is false. They were able to rip a large amount from my checks. I had to withdraw my XXXX to prevent eviction. Also, even though they have received the money through garnishment, they still have the debt posted on my credit.
