Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY (FL)

I returned two items to Nordstrom via USPS on XX/XX/XXXX, tracking for the returned item/package states it was received on XX/XX/XXXX. Through multiple contacts to Nordstrom chat and customer service line Ive been given different time frames for when my return will be processed. Its now been 34 consecutive days and 24 business days since I provided my return via usps, the FAQ section on the Nordstrom website states returns are proceed 10-14 business days, we are now 10 business days past the maximum business allotted to a return as per the FAQ section. On my Nordstrom card I keep receiving a charge of interest for this purchase when I do not have the item with me and I returned it once I received the return label. On XX/XX/XXXX I was told via a chat with the Nordstrom customer service that I should expect a return by Tuesday XX/XX/XXXX, it is now Tuesday XX/XX/XXXX and I place a call to Nordstrom customer service only to be told that only one item was returned and I should be receiving a gift card in the mail for it ( WHEN I PAID VIA A NORDSTROM CARD, I should be refunded in the method of which I paid ) and that the other item that was returned together, had not been processed and THIRTY days later they could still not tell me why. With a pandemic in place Im unsure where the logic of giving a gift card makes sense if I made a return because I didnt like the item and the item was approved for return because Nordstrom provided me a tracking label, that means I need my amount cash/credit paid returned as it was provided not at the choice and discretion of Nordstrom as they please. Im saddened by Nordstroms customer service and lack of communication between staff and towards the customer. I have not received any update on this return, not one email after I was sent the tracking number. And each time I call customer service each person I speak to is lost on the matter and does not understand why Ive been made to wait so long on a return.

This is one of my multiple attempts to notify credit bureaus that I am a victim of identity theft and that I want to query certain records in my documents that resulted from the crime. The documents I'm looking at have nothing to do with any transactions involving goods, services, or money that I've made or approved.

I am trying to buy a house and these things are delaying my home buying process. I have been a victim of aggravated identity theft. I need these items removed asap. Each creditor should have form SSA-89 signed by the consumer whenever credit is requested that way they have proof it was mailed and received by the said consumer and that way each person knows if/ and when fraud has or hasn't been committed. That form was requested by me to the creditor and they have yet to send that. It's been over 30 days since requested and over the timeframe. If they can't provide it they need to respectfully remove these items. XXXX what this form entails. I understand my consumer rights and how to proceed. I will contact the XXXX, and state attorney general to let them know such things are happening and not being honored if this isn't handled asap. Do not send a bill as a bill doesn't provide sufficient proof the said has applied for anything.

On XX/XX/2023, I informed Experian by mail that there was incorrect and/or outdated information reporting on my credit file. 
I've asked Experian to correct this information. Experian has only partially corrected the problems. I am asking Experian to thoroughly read my documents and remove the incorrect information I have listed. 

I am currently disputing items on my credit report. There is no third party acting on my behalf. 

I have attached the proper identification to verify my identity. 

Experian has accused me of using a 3 party to act as myself. This is a lie and a known stall tactic being used by Experian. 

There is no other person or any credit company acting on my behalf. Attached are my proof of documents.
