I have an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX. I could not remember my password and was locked out. I reset password a couple weeks back. Upon going to website today, my password and username did not work, and the system stated I was locked out. In order to unlock, the system needed to verify that I was the account holder. I believe it asked for the account number and/or name. It also required my birth date and my entire social security number. I became suspicious as most times I am only asked for last 4 digits. I can even go with last 5 digits. When I contacted Saks, they stated that's how the site verifies. However, when speaking to someone in their technical support department, they only needed my last 4 digits and she asked some public record questions to unlock the account. I stated I was not comfortable giving anyone my entire SS #. I asked that she have them look into changing how they verify an account online using only the last 4 digits. I explained why the way they are currently verifying can be cause for caution. I would appreciate someone contacting XXXX regarding the way they are verifying information because, for example, if I am aware XXXX verifies by asking for entire SS # and a scammer have hi-jacked their website leading me to believe I am on their website, putting in my birthdate and entire SS # could set up for identity theft. I feel they are not protecting the consumer to the fullest degree. 

Thank you,

Company: Harvard Collections, LLC (TX)

I've sent multiple letters to this agency about this not being my account. After being advised by identitytheft.gov, I've completed and sent a fraud affidavit via certified mail. I can see they received it, but nothing has changed. See supporting documents. Even the USPS tracking. My official complaint is against HARVARD COLLECTION. My information was used to obtain an apartment, cell phone, and an auto loan with my ex-partner. I am a victim of identity theft and have put this off for too long. I've completed the proper steps, 1. notify creditors 2. police report 3. informed the state of Texas. The individual I've suspected for this theft is now deceased, and the police department said to contact the federal trade commission to seek relief. These companies disregard laws and dont care whos credit or lives they impact.

During the process im buying a plane ticket on XXXX, I was presenting an offer to apply for a XXXX American Express business and receive {$200.00} credit towards my fare. I applied and my application was approve and then I was to be presented with the new credit card number in order to purchase my ticket. The link that was supposed to show me the credit card number did not work so I called American Express to try to get the number to complete my transaction. I was told they were unable to give me the number but that I could charge it to a different American Express business credit card and they could transfer it to the correct card once I had the number when the physical card was delivered to me. That card arrived today but when I called to initiate the transfer as Id been directed, I was told Amex never does this and they would not help me. I am now out {$200.00} and feel that I was tricked into getting a credit card that did not deliver on the promotion. I have since canceled the card and would like remedy for this.

The mortgage servicer - XXXX XXXX XXXX - incorrectly used the wrong property address, whereas the Mailing Address Certification form the loan origination had the correct address listed on it. So they were sending mail to the wrong address and I never received any mail from them. No statements, nothing. When I pulled my credit report, I noticed a 90-day late on it. Then I called the company and found out they were my loan servicer. I immediately paid the amount due, and became current within 2 days of finding out who was my loan servicer. Now I have a negative mark on my credit. I spoke to a very nice, informative gentleman from the CFPB. He was very helpful and thorough. I am really glad you all are here looking out for homeowners. Thank you.

I demand that these accounts be deleted immediately as mandated by law, accounts reported on my credit profile should be 100 % accurate and verified.

I have been disputing items on my credit report with ALL 3 of the bureaus and NONE of them have responded to me. I have been denied financing and it is because there are errors on my credit report that THEY are reporting! I have contacted the Attorney General in their state of operation and you, the CFPB should be ensuring that they are doing what they are supposed to do under the law. They need to remove the errors I have been disputing!

Although notices have not been properly given to me, I discovered numerous inquiries to ChexSystems. None of these were made with my consent. There are many incorrect " personal identity '' items on my ChexSystems credit report, which identity thieves can then use to " identify themselves '' as me. ChexSystems uses personal identity information " challenge '' questions to provide a credit report online. ChexSystems uses an address on XXXX XXXX in XXXX as one of the challenge questions I need to know the answer to in order to be " identified. '' I have never lived anywhere near there. The address does not appear on my ChexSystems credit report and ChexSystems refuses to disclose the source of that challenge question so I can have it corrected. ChexSystems refuses to act on or respond to my written dispute from my attorney that was SIGNED BY ME AS WELL, demanding a notarized " power of attorney ''. Although this is a matter of urgency and my attorney communicated to ChexSystems via fax, ChexSystems not only refuses to act, it sends its response by very slow regular mail rather than by fax or email. ChexSystems runs an online system that apparently allows automated inquiries. In every, or most, cases the inquiries are rejected -- this means both ChexSystems and the " furnisher '' know that I, the consumer, did not consent to the inquiry. Nevertheless, they proceed to pad their credit data on me with false data they will not remove, and which can be exploited by identity thieves. This all takes place in the " subprime '' market and the activity is not disclosed on the " main 3 '' credit reporting agency reports and alerts. Finally, XXXX ( which did not have my consent to access my credit ) sent me a reject notice for " my application '', disclosing to me that it had accessed ChexSystems. Additionally, there is no negative information in the ChexSystems report, but ChexSystems refuses to disclose the reason for the rating it sent to XXXX. Because FCRA requires my Identity Theft Report to contain the items that are false in order to demand they be blocked, I am including those in an upload attachment to this complaint. With respect to uploads, however, there is a discrepancy in CFPB instructions : ( 1 ) don't reveal personal information and ( 2 ) upload documents, letters, etc. related to the complaint.

Equifax continues to allow XXXX XXXX XXXX to report incorrect information to my consumer file. This entire balance on this account was paid off on the XXXX XXXX of 2020. Recently XXXX had a collection agency attempt to collect payment from me. The collection agency, XXXX XXXX has now closed the file in their office and returned it to XXXX Because the account was paid off. XXXX XXXX did the right thing. Equifax has an obligation to ensure that only accurate information is being reported. 

XXXX is reporting a small loan tradeline that I never applied for to my consumer credit file. I never authorized an account, especially a small loan with XXXX nor was I aware that an account was ever opened in my name. XXXX is in violation of the FCRA by reporting this tradeline to my consumer file as I never agreed to any account with XXXX. In accordance with FCRA Section 609 I am requesting all contractual documents stating and proving that I am responsible for this account and that I agreed to and authorized such an account. I can not see any type of account number listed for the tradeline on my credit report. Remove this erroneous tradeline immediately as this is a complete violation of the FCRA. 

Recently in doing some research on the student loans in my name that are being serviced by Fed Loan Servicing. I learned that the loans are for a school by the name of XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. I never signed an enrollment agreement with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX nor did I ever sign or agree to become a former student of XXXX XXXX. This seems like fraud to me. I do not wish to be associated with XXXX XXXX and I never agreed to it. I do not understand how this is possible and how this legally has taken place. I do not understand why there are student loans listed under XXXX XXXX in my name. I never agreed to this. I am requesting XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX to provide information stating that I agreed to be associated as a former or current student with this school. Before today I had no knowledge of any of this. I am requesting documentation with signatures that Fed Loan Servicing has the right to pursue loan payment from me for the school XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. I do not wish to be affiliated with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. I never agreed to any enrollment or loans with XXXX XXXX. Therefore Fed Loan Servicing must substantiate seeking loans associated with XXXX from me.
