Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: Dyck-O'Neal, Inc. (MD)

See prior cfbp case # XXXX. Dyck-O'Neal, Inc. initially attempted to collect debt from me based on stolen identity. I submitted a Federal Trade Commission Identity Theft Victim 's Complaint and Affidavit, signed in front of a XXXX County, Maryland police officer. In cfbp case # XXXX, XXXX Inc. agreed that I was the victim of identity theft and agreed to delete its trade line from my credit file. BUT, within days of receiving the resolution to cfbp case # XXXX, XXXX, Inc. issued me an IRS Form XXXX ( Cancellation of Debt ) for {$210000.00}. Since I was the victim of identity theft, XXXX, Inc. has NOT forgiven any debt of mine and I believe it filed the IRS Form XXXX in a blatant attempt to penalize / harm me for bringing my concerns to the CFPB.

Messages were left on my unlisted home telephone and on my cell phone number. The message also indicated that my place of employment would be contacted and that I would be served with a subpoena in my local county ref : Case number XXXX. Upon receipt of the message I returned the call that was listed in the call log rather than the number indicated in the message ( ) and spoke with XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX proceeded to lecture me with regard to what he felt that I had done which rendered this cause of action. He refused to provide me with a physical address to respond to the complaint and indicated that I should visit the online website and make a payment on a payday loan from 2006. He transferred the call to XXXX XXXX who indicated that she knew my place of employment and did so by naming the place of business where I am currently working. She also indicated that she would neither provide me a physical address nor an email and would instead indicate my refusal to comply with the company 's request for payments. I do not owe any money to the creditor nor do I deserve to be harassed by them at my place of employment. I am on the Do Not Call Register and the company should not have access to my private/unlisted home telephone number.

I have an old account from XXXX financial svcs that is past the 7 year reporting period.

I have disputed the debt with both Experian and XXXX on numerous occasions but it has not been removed.

Today the same account has simply been renamed and is being reported on my Experian credit report as XXXX. XXXX is also reporting that I filed a chapter XXXX bankruptcy. I have never filed for chapter XXXX bankruptcy. I would like to have this removed. I am applying for a home loan and this re-aged debt is causing the mortgage lenders to deny my application.

I submitted my police report, affidavit, proof that I was out of the country when this bankruptcy was filed ( I was out of the country from XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX and this bankruptcy was filed in 2011 ) as well as handwriting/signature comparisons to prove that the signatures on the bankruptcy papers does not belong to me and was told by XXXX that they have denied my request to block the information. I also sent the original petition for the bk that I pulled on pacer.gov to show that it was not my signature. In addition, the accounts that were included in this bankruptcy ( listed on the last page ) were never even on my credit file. I will take these XXXX bureaus to court if I have to, and i have already filed multiple complaints against them with the XXXX, FTC and CFPB as well as your organization and they still continue to report this information even after I have submitted the proof that this was never filed by me, the bk does not belong to me and that someone did this without my knowledge. Please contact this company to get them to remove this, as they are in clear violation of my rights

It seemed very good to turn it down. They said they would train me on how to find drop shippers so I could sell on XXXX, XXXX and any website for that matter. They have done nothing to help me and I was unable to locate any dropshippers that would turn even the smallest profit. They provided no support whatsoever in order to help me.

Company: Geneva Financial, LLC, Chandler, AZ Branch (AZ)

Back in mid XXXX of 2015 my listing went under contract. The buyer agent had sold me on the broker with Geneva Financial, a XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX, would be able to accomplish the deal. As the transaction proceeded, the bank who I represented agreed to do repairs to the roof for financing purposes. The finance broker agreed to pay for the buyer repairs. He the broker said he would build it into the loan. I verbally said, OK and he proceeded to have a firm enter and do work in the amount of {$3500.00}. Originally we were to close on XXXX/XXXX/15, and it was then extended to XXXX/XXXX/15 from broker request to finish up. Well it was still not meeting that close date as his people were not done or he had to anticipate other factors. I do remember the turning point was when his camp all of a sudden said they were ready to close and needed an addendum putting the XXXX vendor repair costs on the seller side to be approved. My asset manager said no way, that we had only approved for the roof. Well from that point on it got dragged out until I called the CEO of Geneva Financial and reported him. He made changes and we closed in one week. The bad behavior was his stalling tactics keep all parties with no direction for over three weeks. Well fell out of contract due to his in action. Also rude treatment of the buyer agent pitting her against the buyer who she had worked with for over 2 years. Also the escrow officer had to know the status and he 'd never return phone calls. Absolute rude, fowl language along with no follow up to anyone in the actual parties to successfully close. Buyers agent has XXXX or XXXX other deals with this guy so he 's treating her badly as he knows he can control the way the financing goes with them. I will never use nor recommend this broker to anyone and he should be investigated for the behavior alone. To end the buyer had over 30 days to wait because of his stalling tactics. I accused him early on that he was holding hostage the loan for his own benefit thinking someone would pay the {$3500.00} that he had some idea would go on the other side of Hud statement and no one would detect, what an XXXX. 
Completely unprofessional in that he 's not truthful, lies and abusive.

I applied online for a credit card with Chase Bank USA , N.A . XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX DE XXXX. They sent me a letter turning me down for a card due to info acquired from XXXX, stating reason was bankruptcy. My credit score is XXXX which was in the good credit area. Here is my problem. I am tired of applying for and being denied for this reason. Okay, we did have bankruptcy in 2011. We had no recourse. For over XXXX decades we had excellent credit, with unlimited access to cards. However, due to my husband 's military status, his social security number was hacked, therein resulting in theft and unauthorized purchases, so high and numerous to be unreal. They had to be incredibly sophisticated with this hack. We could not find out who, where or when it was so huge and numerous. Even if my husband was a " millionaire '', I do n't think we could have kept up with the problem, therefore, bankruptcy. My problem is, when will we stop being punished for something out of our control? I can understand a bank denying us for this reason, however, it is so wrong to have points taken away for applying, especially considering the facts surrounding that bankruptcy in the first place! We did not plan to have people invade our privacy and steal from us and I 'm so tired of all of the negative results that was not of our doing!!!

Is Experian beyond adhering to the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I have contacted Experian over a 3 day time span and have tried to get them to place hard inquiries that are reporting on my credit report under dispute however this was met with great difficulty and an inability to have this done by several of their agents. These hard inquiries that they are reporting are not factual and I received the answer from each one of the representatives and supervisors I spoke with, XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX who was a supervisor in the Disputes Department ( XXXX XXXX ) on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX who was a supervisor in the Special Services Department ( XXXX XXXX ) who called me back on XX/XX/XXXX after I had reminded XXXX that a supervisor was to call me back from my previous call with XXXX, and lastly on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX in the Texas Office, all stated this information is factual and they must by law report who accessed the credit report and if I had any disputes I must reach out to the creditor.
They are directly violating the FCRA as it reads according to the FCRA Rules, FCRA 623 ( b ) ( 2 ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ), any information can be disputed and MUST be investigated and if they do n't investigate and respond, the CRA must delete the dispute information from its files. The very fact, that 4 representatives refused to place the inquiries under dispute, constitutes hat there was NOT an investigation performed. I am submitting this complaint as there was no investigation done on my request for the hard inquiries that do n't belong to me. This is blantant violation of the FCRA and Experian knows better than what they are doing. Not only is this a violation of the FCRA but also a violation of my consumer rights. Just in case they need a refresher, these are the accounts that were requested.

However, in violation of the FDCA, ALLIEDINTERSTATE, unlawfully continued attempt to collect on an illegal debt in clear violation of my FCRA and Privacy Rights, causing and preventing me from obtaining new credit, secure adequate housing and or a meaningful employment. 
Furthermore, I advised ALLIEDINTERSTATE, that this debt was a direct result of ID THEFT and as such that I am not liable for this debt. I also requested that ALLIEDINTERSTATE provide me copies of said unpaid invoices and name and address of the original creditor to which they failed to do so. 
Upon belief and Information, whereas, the debt was as a direct result of FRAU and ID THEFT, I requested that this account be permanently closed and any adverse information that resulted from this unauthorized use be deleted from my credit report. 
Nonetheless, ALLIEDINTERSTATE purposefully with ulterior motive disregarded the RULE OF LAW and my request causing and depriving me access to housing ; meaningful employment and/or to obtain new credit without just cause or any legitimate reason.

Three weeks ago, I mailed Experian XXXX specific things that I believe are incorrect on my credit report and asked them to investigate. On Saturday, I received a response in the mail saying : " We received a suspicious request in the mail regarding your personal credit report and determined that it was not sent by you. 
... 
In an effort to safeguard your personal credit information from fraud, we will not be initiating any disputes based on the suspicious correspondence. '' This is ridiculous, because I included a copy of my drivers license in the mailed correspondence. I contacted Experian on the phone yesterday, and the representative could not access my information. She also could not allow me to verify my identity so that those items could be investigated. She only said that I could tell her on the phone what my issues were. 

My rights as a consumer are being violated. Experian should have removed the incorrect information from my report right away, and instead they are refusing to even investigate if it is correct. I sent my complaint in the mail because I wanted to use my own words to describe the issues and not have some random person on the phone use hers.
