The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

This is Disappointing! I have been disputing with the Credit  reporting Agencies for the removal of the Fraudulent accounts and information that are still reporting on my Credit File despite the multiple dispute letters and CFPB complaints I have been sending to the Credit Reporting Agencies. Five ( 5 ) months have passed and it seems like the Credit Reporting Agencies have been doing nothing! I have consulted my legal counsel and they are willing to help me file a federal case against the Credit reporting agencies for their willful negligence and incompetence with my Credit File. I have been informing the Credit Reporting Agencies that I have been a victim of identity theft and that the disputed items were the result of such crimes therefore I never have a legally binding contract with the disputed items. However, the Credit Reporting Agencies have claimed that the disputed items belong to me and that the Data furnishers verified the accuracy of the disputed items but I never received anything in response or any proof of verification or proof of ownership. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I am requesting that the Credit reporting Agencies remove the following items completely from my Credit file before my legal aide finished their deliberation. I need the following items removed : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA you are required by law to remove & block any items which are found to be opened due to identity theft. The disputed items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please block/remove these files.

made goodwill gesture to allow the agency to correct the erroneous reporting, and I have maintained a careful record of my communications with the agency and now I am filing a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and the Attorney Generals office due to the non-compliance of the agency. I do not agree with the item listed below which still appears on my credit report, even after a so-called Investigation. I would like this item immediately re- investigated. These inaccuracies are highly injurious to my credit rating. I have been turned down for job opportunities and many purchases due to this inaccurate report. The following is inaccurate : Company : XXXX  Account Number : XXXX REASONS TO INVESTIGATE AND VALIDATE THE ACCOUNT : validation of debt not given as requested, Date opened is incorrect, inaccurate payment dates, I DID NOT provide written permission for this account to even be reporting to or on my credit report, Wrong date of last activity noted, Wrong balance listed, wrong payment dates listed .Wrong date of last activity noted, Wrong balance listed, Wrong credit limit amount listed. It is my understanding with MY RIGHTS AND federal consumer laws that they will check these items with the creditor who has posted them and MUST provide documented validation of all reported inaccuracies and validates debt. I WANT THIS ACCOUNT AND ALL INACCURATE INFORMATION THAT IS NOT VALIDATED AND DOCUMENTS PROVIDED TO ME REMOVED FROM MY CREDIT REPORT.

There is a collection account on my credit report from XXXX XXXX XXXX. The original creditor is Capital One. XXXX XXXX XXXX is reporting that the account is still open, and reporting that it was opened in XXXX of XXXX. Both of these are inaccurate information as that account has been closed since XXXX. They are still making reports to the account, latest report was XX/XX/XXXX for an account thats been closed for almost 2 years. I submitted MULTIPLE disputes to XXXX, XXXX and XXXX and stated that i NEVER had an account with Capital One from XXXX of XXXX. XXXX deleted the account from my credit report. XXXX and XXXX did not. The FCRA states that information on a credit report has to be reporting accurately or it has to be deleted. XXXX and XXXX has refused to delete. If this account is not taken off of my credit report I will file a lawsuit against XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (SC)

Behind on a payment that is now 22 days late.. since Monday XX/XX/2021 I have received 27 calls. I called months ago about help with this balance and credit card that was accumulated over the period of the pandemic as my job suffered greatly not being able to travel and companies not wanting to spend money for fire life safety. They told me on the phone when I called customer service, there was nothing they could do to help!. They had no programs or anything, then asked if there was anything else they could assist me with. Thats why I am very dissatisfied with this company.As soon as I can pay this credit card off, I will be canceling this XXXX card and never doing business with Citi again XXXX 

When I did answer a phone call from Citi bank, it immediately hung up. They called again and I answered, it just hung up. Looking/listening to the voicemail, it was an automated phone service. This is why I feel Citi bank is violating the harassment/abuse federal laws.
