Time has already passed but up until now, I havent heard any kind of response from the 3Credit Bureaus which made me decide to seek assistance from you. They have shown negligence and an act of refusal of complying with my request. I know for a fact that they are to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act law, to provide proof, documents, and give definite and accurate responses, within the given statutory time. However, if they failed to do so, they are obliged to remove or update the items which are erroneous and unverified. Their unfavorable and unacceptable actions have been hurting my credit scores immensely.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

It appears that my credit/my file/my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many information, accounts or items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA you are required by law to remove & block any accounts or information which is found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please block/remove these files. I found that under section 605b ( a ) Equifax and XXXX shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt and it requires the following documents and statement to remove the disputed accounts on my file : ( 1 ) Appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) A copy of an identity theft report ; ( 3 ) The identification of such information by the consumer ; and ( 4 ) A statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer.

The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( which complies with FCRA Section 603 ( q ) ( 4 ) which states ( 4 ) The term " identity theft report '' has the meaning given that term by rule of the Bureau, and means, at
a minimum, a report ( A ) That alleges an identity theft ; ) ( B ) That is a copy of an official, valid report filed by a consumer with an appropriate Federal, State, or local law enforcement agency, including the United States Postal Inspection Service, or such other government agency deemed appropriate by the Bureau ; and ( C ) The filing of which subjects the person filing the report to criminal penalties relating to the filing of false information if, in fact, the information in the report is false. ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 

If you feel there is a possibility these accounts belong to me I will require all documentation that bears my signature ( another research item I found that requires you to verify with 100 % accuracy that each account is 100 % true, accurate, correct, complete & VERIFIABLE ). If you do not provide any records & claim the item is verified please understand I will seek legal action. I do not take kindly to games nor does my attorney. SO please comply with the law so this matter can be handled swiftly.

Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account — Transaction was not authorized
Company: AXOS FINANCIAL, INC. (MA)

After doing a bit of research online for best checking accounts my wife and I recently opened a joint Axos Bank account based on the recommendation of a number of reputable sources : XXXX, XXXX, etc. Less than a month later on XX/XX/2022 our account was compromised and a {$2500.00} XXXX transfer was initiated from our account. 

Seeing no obvious way to cancel this online we both tried to contact the bank to stop the payment. She and I spent a collective 8 hours calling phone numbers, and chatting with online chat bots trying to speak with a person to cancel this transaction. 

I was never successful in speaking with a person. She finally got a person on the other end of the online chat who told her to initiate a Stop Payment which cost us {$10.00}. We were told wed get that money back, but how? Who do we contact about that? It is impossible to find someone to speak to at this bank to perform basic tasks and avoid getting charged large sums of money for transfers we didnt initiate. 

After doing additional research online it appears that a huge number of people has also had similar experiences. 

The rise of AI customer support has left consumers wasting time, energy, and money as we try to puzzle our way through menues, and voice recognition software. These services are expanding and helping the consumer less and less. This could have cost us {$2500.00} if we were not paying attention. Outsourcing customer service to robots is not the future, despite what big tech tells us.

On XX/XX/2020, I signed a rental agreement for a house at XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX for the months of XXXX + XX/XX/2020 in the amount of {$5700.00}. I made the payment for two months rent and {$1000.00} deposit per the rental agreement over the course of three days via the Chase Online Banking system using the Chase Quickpay/XXXX option on XX/XX/XXXX for {$2000.00}, XX/XX/XXXX for {$2000.00}, and XX/XX/XXXX for {$1700.00}. I sent the money through the Chase website to XXXX XXXX using a phone number that was given to me. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a receipt from " XXXX XXXX. '' On XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email asking for an additional {$1400.00}. This peaked my suspicion which led me to realize the house in the ad is not the same house at that address. On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent an email explaining I no longer wanted the rental and requested a refund. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a text saying a refund would be processed that day. I did not hear back until Tuesday with a text asking if I had a credit card. I still have no received a refund. I called XXXX to explain I've been scammed. The representative did not seem to care and simply told me there was nothing they could do. I went to the bank in person yesterday. I was given more sympathy and care, but a claim for the wrong transaction was filed I received a message last night saying " As we discussed and agreed, no action will be taken. '' I made a transaction through my secure banking portal ( or so I thought ) with zero knowledge that " Chase Quick Pay by XXXX '' was not protected/secured OR an outside service. I did not sign into XXXX. I signed onto chase.com. I used this payment method with confidence thinking it was a service provided by Chase Online Banking.
