Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (FL)

Despite AMEX 's investigation 's findings regarding payments for Account Ending In : XXXX from my XXXX XXXX Bank account, it is essential to recognize that fraudulent activities can occur without the account holder 's knowledge or consent. 

Furthermore, I must express my disappointment in the outcome of the AMEX 's previous fraud inquiry conducted on XX/XX/XXXX, and the subsequent investigation initiated upon receipt of my CFPB correspondence on XX/XX/XXXX. Despite providing documentation such as the Identity Theft Report, copy of postage, and Police Report, the decision remains unchanged. 

I reiterate that I take fraudulent use of accounts seriously and am committed to resolving this matter. The cancellation of the account, as indicated in AMEX 's your letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, underscores the urgency of addressing this issue promptly and fairly. 

Given the circumstances surrounding this account and the ongoing dispute, it is plausible that these payments may be the result of fraudulent activity.

This is not only the tenth time I have contacted Equifax, but the fourth time I have contacted you all. This company continues to report inaccurate information on my credit report. I have sent over all types of prove, I have sent over police reports 5 times showing that my information has been used in different place since I was robbed. When this happened I placed a fraud alert on your credit and still my information was used. Equifax is the only agency reporting these incorrect, lies on my credit and refuses to change it behind the credit agencies that have also failed several time to correct these issues. Each email that I have received from CFPB is in favor of the credit agency, when the information is false. On top of that every time i send in my request, the dates change, the amounts change and the name changes.

Company: Benuck & Rainey, Inc. (CA)

I contacted the collection agency I was referred to by the original creditor to ask them why they are not reporting the payments that Im making to them on behalf of the creditor. I was informed that although the creditor closed my account, it was only closed to the point of no longer being able to purchase any more equipment from them, but it was still open for them to report late payments to the credit bureaus, although I've been making payments since XXXX to the collection agency. They stated that since the account was still open, they were not able to report my payments to the credit bureaus, and that the creditor stated that they will continue to report late repayments until I have paid the full amount, or the settlement in full. I informed the representative that I would like to stop making payments until I heard back from the CFPB regarding my complaint against the creditor. The representative informed me that if I stopped making payments to them, the creditor would be taking me to court for the balance due. I believe that they is illegal with malice on both parties, but that the original creditor is intentionally damaging my credit and harming my life.

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE (SC)

I am attempting to buy a home. This account is the only account standing in my way. Over the past two weeks I have made multiple attempts to settle this debt. I have sat on hold for hours at a time before speaking with anyone. Each time, I was given a different Collection Agency to call to pay it. Each one explained to me that they no longer have my account and it was sent back to Barclay, that I need to speak to them to pay it. Thus, I immediately re-contact Barclay who say that they can not collect the payment from me either. Finally on Friday I spoke with XXXX XXXX XXXX who went in to far more detail with me. I was told that I am only required to pay 42 % of the outstanding debt to clear the matter per Barclays standard practice. I was also told that no collection agency has my account. That it is in " limbo '' and until Barclay passes it to another collection agency I will not be able to pay the debt. I was told this could take months to be reassigned to another collector. 
Phone Number to XXXX XXXX : XXXX My Reference and Account Number can be provided upon request
