Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you XXXX  credit reporting agency, block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint. Finding unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries, and false personal information made or reported without my knowledge or agreement completely stunned and grieved me. I've tried to get clarification from the creditors, but they have blatantly refused to give it to me. I demand that the creditors act immediately and be transparent. The creditors must submit pertinent application materials, show proof of express authority for each query, and give comprehensive details about each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and the kinds of credit products involved. To see what I'm complaining about, please refer to the attached file! 

All of the aforementioned accounts, collections, and hard inquiries are the result of identity theft and fraud. I have attached a copy of FTC Identity Theft Criminal Complaint FTC Report Number : XXXX as proof from the US Federal Trade Commission that all of the aforementioned consumer credit accounts, collections, and hard inquiries are the result of identity theft and fraud. I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be no confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

I have been unable to access my Experian account because I no longer have access to the old phone number and email associated with the account. I have tried calling Experian customer service 12 times today but was unable to reach a live representative or get any assistance. The automated system does not allow me to speak with a human or reset my login information.

I need Experian to provide a way to verify my identity and regain access to my account promptly.

Complaint narrative:
There are inaccurate and unauthorized addresses showing in my consumer file that have no valid reason to be reported under my name. The addresses that must be removed are XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. This is a violation of 15 U.S.C. 1681b for lacking permissible purpose and 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) for failing to ensure maximum possible accuracy. The presence of these false addresses creates unnecessary risks, including the possibility of being linked to fraudulent activity, experiencing delays or denials in credit applications, and suffering damage to my personal and professional reputation. This negligent reporting also violates 15 U.S.C. 1681n and 1681o, which allow {$100.00} to {$1000.00} in damages per violation. I am requesting these addresses be deleted immediately and that only my correct address XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX remain in my file. Provide written proof of the update. If these inaccuracies remain, I will treat it as willful noncompliance and take all legal action allowed by law.

This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated. They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Complaint Regarding Unjustified Credit Limit Reduction by CareCredit Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am submitting a formal complaint regarding CareCredits decision to drastically reduce my credit limit from {$5000.00} to {$250.00} without valid justification. 

CareCredit cited reasons such as average time since revolving accounts opened is too recent, not enough available credit on revolving accounts, not enough balance paid down over time on retail accounts, and lack of first mortgage account information. These reasons are vague, subjective, and do not reflect my actual credit behavior.

This limit reduction has severely impacted my credit utilization ratio and significantly damaged my credit score. The reduction was a direct consequence of an error on CareCredits part involving an unauthorized auto-pay withdrawal.

Despite my efforts to resolve this with CareCredit, including discussions with their account manager, they have refused to restore my original credit limit or provide a satisfactory explanation.

I request CFPBs assistance to investigate this matter and help ensure that CareCredit corrects this unjustified action, restoring my credit limit to its original amount or a reasonable level. 

Thank you for your attention and support.

Unauthorized access to my credit report by several companies has directly and negatively impacted both my credit and credit score. I previously contacted your agency and was assured by a representative that these unauthorized inquiries would be removed. That assurance has not been honored, and these inquiries remain. This failure to act is unacceptable. 

The continued presence of these potentially fraudulent entries is highly alarming and strongly indicative of possible identity theft. This unresolved matter is causing ongoing emotional and financial harm.
