I checked again my credit report and found that some of the data were incorrect. The three credit bureaus are required by Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) to verify these inquiries ( A ). It is not permitted to report these inquiries as unverified information without giving any supporting documentation within the legally permitted time frame. My credit report lists the following issues as needing investigation and deletion due to inaccurate reporting in my file.

I filed a complaint with Equifax. It was ignored. 
I filed a complaint with CFPB and Equifax claimed that my student loans are now reflected as XXXX balance... They lied. I have their company response on file and I'll attach it. 
My balance hasn't changed or my status.

Previously on XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 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. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX XXXX  data breach as well as Equifax 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

Issue: Trouble using your card — Credit card company won't increase or decrease your credit limit
Company: FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF OMAHA (NJ)

I opened this account as I wanted to leverage the 0 % interest purchase/balance transfer offe being extended until XX/XX/XXXX. Initial credit line was approved for {$4700.00}. Used $ XXXX of that for balance transfers. Paid more than minimum & on time every month. Out of nowhere credit limit was reduced to {$2200.00} which means my overall utilization will be around 90 % instead of 40 % which will negatively impact my credit score. I spoke to First Bank Card twice ( XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ) and explained this and also that none of my other credit card companies have taken this step which tells me this was a decision First Bank Card made on their own ( an escalations rep admitted as much when he called me back ). This is wrong on so many levels. I asked the company if we could come to any sort or compromise such as leaving my limit at XXXX for now then when I pay off byXX/XX/XXXX then reduce limit to {$2200.00} after that time. I also suggested they make the available credit " frozen '' ( my current balance minus {$4700.00} ) so it  can not be used as I had no intention of using it anyhow but have {$4700.00} reported to credit bureaus as my limit solely to help protect my credit score my reflecting a better credit utilization percentage. But they again said they would do nothing. If nothing is doneI will be paying this account off asap and they will not get a dime of money from me after that. As I explained to First Bank Card. If I would've known my limit was going to be reduced to {$2200.00} I would've simply capped my balance transfers to $ XXXX-XXXX  tops. This was a bait and switch and now my credit score is going to be negatively impacted at no fault of my own. This is wrong on so may levels. Please hold First Bank Card accountable for their unethical business practices and assist me with getting a resolution. Thank you.

XXXX University signed me up for classes without my knowledge. I was under the impression that I was waiting on a student loan to be approved. I had told them this. When the loan finally went through, I emailed them to register for classes. They never responded. 

They sent me to collections for tuition never paid for the classes they registered me for without my knowledge. I told the collections company that I had never registered and provided them with my correspondence that was never addressed. They acknowledged the error and told me they 'd tell the original creditor. I thought it was resolved. 

Today, three months after talking to them and providing proof the debt was not legitimate, I found out they have been reporting this to the credit bureaus.

Company: LD Holdings Group, LLC (CA)

In late XXXX we took Loan Depot up on the offer to utilize automatic payments for our mortgage. The payments were set up to come out on the first of the month, beginning on XXXX  XXXX. To our surprise the online payment platform failed and our payment was not made. We did not receive any phone or written correspondence from Loan Depot until XX/XX/2022, when our loan was already 30 days past due. As soon as we received our payment we made both the XXXX and XXXX payments to make our account up to date and contacted Loan Depot right away in regards to the negative credit bureau reporting. We asked that the mistake be reversed and Loan Depot declined our request. We were asked to put a dispute in writing to escalate the issue to a supervisor which we did. After the written dispute was received and reviewed by Loan Depot, we were still declined. Loan Depot says that they attempted to contact up numerous times before the negative credit reporting, but we did not receive any telephone or written correspondence. I asked if they had proof that the attempts were actually completed or fulfilled and they said no. They showed no answer and did not leave messages. They also said they attempted to contact us via written letter in XXXX, and we did not receive a letter. I asked if they have proof that we received the letter and they did not have an answer. We feel that the failure of the online payment system is Loan Depot fault and we shouldn't be punished for a missing payment when we had plenty of money in our account and made the payment as soon as we actually received a letter on XX/XX/2022.

After going over my monthly consumer report, I've noticed information that doesn't belong to me. I sent the creditor a debt validation letter regarding my concern in which they not responded. Experian is reporting a collection account that doesn't belong to me nor is there verification of this debt. I am asking that Experian investigate the inaccurate information listed in my dispute letter. The negative information is impeding my ability to obtain any relationships with potential lenders or institutions. I am aware that in order for any account or information to be reported to my consumer report must have my consent. I never gave the creditors the permission to share my personal information which is against my right to privacy. By reporting this inaccurate information, Experian is violating the duty to report maximum possible accuracy.

Experian has failed to adhere to 15 U.S.C. Sec. 1681i ( a ), by failing to complete an investigation within 30 days of receipt of a dispute letter. On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a dispute letter to Experian informing them that were reporting a late payment for the account XXXX in XXXX XXXX which is inaccurate. My account with XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX was deferred due to XXXX and I was protected under the CARES ACT. It has been over 8 months, and Experian has failed to remove the late payment reporting XX/XX/XXXX. I urge Experian to address this matter promptly and rectify the inaccuracies on my credit report within 7 days since this is long overdue. Failure to do so will leave me with no option but to initiate legal proceedings. I have documented our communications and the specific instances of non-compliance, which will be presented as evidence in any legal proceedings. It is my sincere hope that Experian will take immediate action to rectify this situation and prevent the need for further legal action. Please see the attached dispute letter sent 8 months ago which is dated and time stamped.
