Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint:
Equifax was breached using a simple and easily patch security vulnerability. I expect someone who hordes my personal information to take security seriously and rigorously. I now have to live in fear of my identity being stolen because Equifax was irresponsible with my personal information.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL

Complaint:
On XXXX the XXXX 2022, I was unaware of a credit check from SYNCB that resulted from a hard inquiry. I purchased an item through the agency XXXX XXXX XXXX. As I purchased the item with the cashier they signed me up for me to take out a card and I agreed, I later declined and the cashier told me that she canceled my transaction. At the time I did not worry about it since I thought this will not affect me. I later then find out through XXXX XXXX  that XXXX shows I have a hard inquiry and this could impact my credit. I immediately call XXXX XXXX XXXX to get this disputed and they can't seem to find any information under my name or by social security number, and they say I am not even a customer as if I do not exist. At this moment I would like to file a complaint for inaccurate information on my credit report towards SYNCB. 


Thank you for your time and consideration.

Issue: Problems at the end of the loan or lease — Unable to receive car title or other problem after the loan is paid off
Company: Santander Consumer USA Holdings Inc.

Complaint:
XX/XX/XXXX i was coerced into purchasing a XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was strapped for cash and my credit was at a very low rate to rising bills. At that time i was new to the City in which i reside, with 3 kids, and working from XXXX to XXXX XXXX  in the morning. I had no other transportation nor any family hear. When i originally signed documents to finance a vehicle, the vehicle was a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I feel as if this was a scare tactic of the Car Dealer to put a person whom they know can not afford a top dollar vehicle, in the vehicle finance, then to only come back with a high dollar amount the dealer knew i could not afford. Then, the dealer ultimately offers the customers a vehicle that with high interest rates and low value, making the consumer feel as if they must take any vehicle they are given by the dealer. 

My vehicle was a XXXX XXXX XXXX, financed at XXXX and it was only valued at XXXX, making the financing company charge me XXXX in interest. At the time of purchase my father had, had a XXXX  in my hometown, in which I was in desperate need for transportation. 

XX/XX/XXXX I lost my job and was out of work until XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted Santander Consumer USA, regarding my payments on this vehicle numerous times due to my ineligibility to pay the high monthly. They afforded me 2 months to make payments but then added the payments to the end of my loan with double interest. 

This past year XXXX Santander Consumer was sued by the state of Georgia due to unfair practices. Where i believe I do fall under the class action suit. When I placed several calls to Santander USA, i was met with rude, unfair telemarketers who was not willing to help. One receptionist even told me " I don't have to give you anything '' when I requested for help with the loan. I informed her of the law suit where the Supreme Court deemed Santander Liable, and able to afford consumers a break. She began to berate me and tell me that i am a grown woman and i should make better choices with my money. I had to hang up because i began to feel nauseous an sick.

Complaint:
I have disputed the referenced accounts to the 3 main credit bureaus and do not owe your company anything. I dont know this company and I do not recall ever having this debt and appears to be fraud, see attached FTC Report. Moreover, no adequate information has been given and noticed these accounts appear to violate my rights as well, per 15 USC 1692 ( e ) ( f ) ( g ). Moreover, you stated the account was verified as accurate by law 15 USC 1681 ( e ). Per 15 USC 1681 ( e ) The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. Investigations weren't completed as described by law and no factual information should be on credit reports. Im requesting the removal of accounts and/or monetary compensation due to violations of my rights. Im currently seeking litigation regarding consistent harassment, unfair debt practices, adding without my permission/authorization within 5 days, and more. As the original creditor, only I can validate the debt therefore Im requesting removal and this account violates my consumer rights in several ways. Please remove and provide some updates within 4 days of receipt, as this has been ongoing for over 3-4 months.

Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account — Transaction was not authorized
Company: Chime Financial Inc

Complaint:
I saw a transaction listed on my Chime checking account that stated I was charged {$1000.00} on Wednesday, XX/XX/2023 at XXXX from merchant 'XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX   I never authorized or made this purchase and I do not know what this transaction is. What was worse was that I received a fraud text alert if this transaction was authorized and I tapped NO! I received a following response that this transaction was declined. However, it still showed pending on my account. I contacted Chime the same day, XX/XX/2023 to see if the payment was going to be canceled. A chime representative told me, " since the transaction is still pending I must wait until the payment is either processed and no longer shown as pending to file a dispute or if it indeed does become canceled ''. 
2 business days later the transaction was indeed complete and the money taken out of my account. I immediately contacted Chime customer support and filed the dispute.

However 3 business days later Chime completed their " investigation '' and denied my dispute.

This transaction was fraudulent and I have never given anyone my account details or debit card number or authorized anyone to make a purchase on my behalf. Since learning of this fraudulent transaction I contacted Chime support and deactivated my debit card and received a new card with a new number. I changed my pin and I set up transaction alerts so I will receive a notification on my phone when a purchase has been made on the account.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL

Complaint:
I had a fraudulent account on all 3 of my credit reports. I filed a dispute and both XXXX & XXXX  removed the derogatory account from my credit file. XXXX did nothing at first. I have submitted at least 5 to 7 XXXX online disputes and one through a phone call and they still refuse to remove the fraudulent account. I made contact with the company that is listed as the account that I supposedly owe and they checked and have NO history of me EVER having an account with them. I again submitted a dispute with XXXX with this information and after a " re-investigation '' the dispute was closed with the fraudulent account still on my credit report. 
XXXX refuses to remove this account and I can not get a loan to purchase a home because of this. The account that is listed as a delinquent account is GE Capital Retail Bank, the same bank the your agency has sued and held liable for {$34.00} XXXX for these same accounts that has been on my account since 2013. XXXX is not doing their due diligence in an appropriate investigation because if they did, they would get the same information that I did from Synchrony Bank ( formerly named GE Capital Retail Bank ) and that is ; that I never had an account with their bank.
