Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I used to to be an XXXX customer and closed my accounts before moving everything to XXXX. When I check my credit report, it confirms that everything was closed before moving my funds to XXXX. 

When Citizens Bank took over many of XXXX XXXX clients, the ybegan calling about charges that were under my name that I did not make. It was very tricky to get anyone on the phone to speak to at Citizens and I never once received info about my account such as a card number or account number. Never once received anything from them. Couldn't get anywhere over the phone either since I never had an account with them. After speaking with someone finally, I was told the charges under my name ( which I did NOT make ) were gone and that faulty account was closed. 

A debt collection agency has been calling me daily for months now over this. Can not speak to them as they yell and accuse/do not have any answers. I no longer answer when they call because they continue to only accuse and I simply do not have info to provide about any Citizen accounts.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute a late payment entry that has appeared on my credit report. The report indicates a late payment in my credit report, which I strongly believe is erroneous and not verified. Throughout my financial history with the financial agencies I am doing business with, I have consistently met all payment deadlines without fail. Therefore, the presence of this late payment is undoubtedly a result of a billing error on the part of the creditor. I request a thorough investigation into this matter to verify the accuracy of the reported late payment and urge for its prompt correction. It is imperative that such inaccuracies are rectified swiftly, as they impact my financial standing and credibility. I have contacted the financial agencies in the last more than 30 days to seek clarification but I got no response because this is erroneously reported for they have provided NO PROOF that there was a REAL late payment. Your immediate attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.
