Company: Flagstar Bank, N.A. (SC)

Since XXXX, I have been on a COVID-19 forebearance through the Act. I was told that being on the plan as described on government and the loaner and websites that I would not face credit reporting or backlash for being on this plan up to 6 months. In XXXX the lender sold my mortgage to Flagstar bank. They call or send me letters every day Today they put a note on my front door to call them. Every time I call them, they tell me the same thing ( that I'm on a Covid forebearance, and that it is through XXXX, and I have to call in XXXX to extend it because I qualify ). They tell me I have 4 ways to handle things when the forebearance is done. They ask me ( every time ) why I suffered from Covid. This is all extremely harassing, down to a note to call them being placed on my front door today despite talking to them like 3 times in XXXX alone being told and asked the same things every time! When I was working with my former company, this did not occur. This is harassment and feels like it should go against the Covid mortgage forebearance Act.

The Credit Bureaus stated my accounts was properly investigated, but how is that possible if the open dates are inaccurate, the dates last active are inaccurate, accounts that are in collection are also being reported as late payments, and the dates last reported is not accurate. This is grounds for removal. They also violated my rights under 15 U.S.C 1681 sections 602 A. States I have a right to privacy 15 U.S.C 1681 sections 604 A section 2 : States a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions The Credit Bureaus are in direct violation of Federal Law under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 1681a ( 1 ) ( 2 ) ( 3 ) ( 4 ) ( b ). I, the consumer and natural person, am filing this complaint about my consumer report in its entirety. The Credit Bureaus have assumed this role without my PERMISSION OR CONSENT! They did not exercise their grave responsibilities, they were unfair, they were partial, and they did not RESPECT my RIGHT TO PRIVACY! They NEVER had a permissible purpose! And I NEVER INSTRUCTED Them to furnish or create this report and I NEVER CONSENTED to this report in the first place. I have disputed these reports in their entirety as well as other accounts time and time again for years. I have asked them to remove ALL items from my consumer reports AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! And since they have failed to make reasonable procedures to resolve my requests to remove this report in its entirety, I am now being misrepresented by each Credit Bureau because these corporations have chosen to continue making fraudulent statements in my consumer report.

Company: ALLY FINANCIAL INC. (MD)

On XX/XX/XXXX, I deposited a check for {$5300.00} from a public adjuster in Maryland into a joint checking account using Ally 's mobile app. I saw on the website that the money had been deposited. On XX/XX/XXXX, I was reviewing recent transactions and noticed that these funds had been removed from our account on XX/XX/XXXX, and we were charged a fee. I assumed the check bounced, but the person who wrote the check confirmed it shouldn't have, so I called Ally. I sat on hold for 45 minutes and was put through to a loss prevention specialist. He said the check was being investigated, but rather than put a hold on that transaction, they locked our entire account down for up to 30 days. When asked how we were supposed to pay our bills, he said we should ask our friends to loan us money. He refused to give any information, such as a direct phone number or case number, so that we could follow up. We asked to speak to his supervisor, but he said that his supervisor XXXX had already left for the day but that we could leave a voice mail. We did, and it has now been an entire week without being able to access our funds or get in contact with anyone at Ally that can help us.

( ii ) promptly notify the furnisher of that information that the information has been modified or deleted from the file of the consumer. This is willful disregard of the FCRA.

This is not a duplicate nor is this complaint filed by a third party. I am filing this complaint myself. Please see this complaint is processed to the letter of the law. Again, I was going through my records & noticed the fraudulent account which does not belong to me STILL reposting on my file in Equifax. The other bureaus have already DELETED this fraudulent information so my question is why do you still report this damaging record? I have already disputed this account several times and stated that I am an identity theft victim. I even forwarded my FTC report I filed online on their website along with my personal information and documents but still, you chose to continue reporting this account. Credit Bureaus are bound to comply with the FCRA regulation section 605b but you never cared nor paid any attention to my Disputes. You became negligent of the FCRA law and continued reporting this information on my Credit File without Proper Verification or Investigation. Now, I want you to REMOVE this account from my file like the other bureaus have done.

On XXXX - XXXX - XXXX  I XXXX XXXX XXXX filed a complaint with you guys the CFPB about incorrect information on all three of my credit reports. I submitted documents showing numerous violations that are being reported and accounts that are duplicates. There are also accounts being reported by two different companies that are the same accounts. I have contacted these companies XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax about the situation, and have been ignored. Knowing you guys ( The CFPB ) are over these credit bureaus, I would like to know why you guys are and enforcing the Laws that were put in affect by the Federal Government? Under 15 USC 1681n ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) The law states any person who willfully fails to comply with any requirement imposed under this subchapter with respect to any consumer is liable to that consumer in an amount equal to the sum of any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure or damages of not less than {$100.00} and not more than {$1000.00}. I have sent numerous documents and pictures showing the violations and inaccuracies stated on my report. After calling numerous times and sending certified letters to these bureaus, Nothing has been done to correct the action or reimburse me for the damages caused by these bureaus. i have been denied credit, home mortgages, and car loan due to my credit. I request that the CFPB holds these credit bureaus accountable for their misleading actions against me. I have had to pay a higher interest rate on my credit cards as well. As a XXXX veteran I have yet been unable to purchase a home for my wife and my XXXX son. All I ask if for you guys to do the right thing and for me to be treated fairly as a consumer. I have proceeded to contact my State Representative and my State Senator on this matter. On XXXX - XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX called the CFPB to disguise the situation i am facing with these credit bureaus, and the lady that I personally talked to told me there was nothing they could do for me and my situation because i was just XXXX consumer? She stated there has to be more than one consumer in order to show a pattern before the CFPB will get involved. In other word as an individual consumer my problems means nothing to the CFPB. I was astonished by the words this woman said to me. I hope this is not the way the CFPB protects its consumers. As a consumer I have the right under federal and state law to be protected from such companies as these credit agencies. I will continue to proceed with letters to my representatives and toward litigation if nothing is done about my situation. All i ask is to be treated fairly like all consumers should be. Thanks again for your time and i hoope to hear back from you guys about my situation.
