Complaint narrative:
I am listing accounts and inquiries below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit.

I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts and inquiries has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Complaint narrative:
I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. 

I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I have contacted each credit bureau ( XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX ) in reference to the three accounts that are listed on my credit report from Department of Education. My credit report from all three bureaus are reporting lates for XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX. I have disputed with each bureau stating the information is inaccurate.Today, XX/XX/XXXX, I call the number to Dept of Education listed on my credit report. I spoke with a representative that stated, the number on my credit report is the true furnisher which is XXXX. XXXX XXXX servicer reports to Dept of Education in turns reports to the credit bureau. The young lady stated she is a customer service rep from XXXX XXXX XXXX. She explained the accounts that are reporting on my credit report are : ( 1 ) Dept of Education in the amount of {$1900.00}, ( 2 ) Dept of Education in the amount of {$3600.00}, ( 3 ) Dept of Education in the amount of {$5100.00} are all under one account and the furnisher again is not Dept of Education, but is XXXX. For the purpose of accounts for the consumer it is listed as separate accounts on the credit report. The representative stated, there is NO reporting of any notes on the account that reference anyone calling from either credit bureau to verify information on these accounts. Also, the representative from XXXX advised " if on your credit report is reporting from each bureau stating the furnisher has verify information you reported is accurate, this is false information. This can not be true because looking at your account, there is no data information, no files, or documents for XXXX ; therefore, neither one of the credit bureau could have verified the lates. '' According to 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( a ) in the section of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), Dept of Education was not able to validate any documents for the student loan account in XXXX. This is questionable as to why XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax would state under their investigation that the information disputed has been verified as accurate when there is not documents/files to verify for XXXX? This is a violation as the investigation was not done thoroughly but by an auto system that uses software to gather information. This is defamation of character and a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting ACT. Again, XXXX, XXXX and Equifax have violated 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) : which this part of the FCRA specifies that if, after an investigation, the information is found to be inaccurate or can not be verified, it must be deleted from the credit report.

Complaint narrative:
I have an account with XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX. The online banking sends emails every month on my updated XXXX XXXX via XXXX. 
In XX/XX/XXXX, I saw my XXXX XXXX went down about XXXX points. So I looked through my credit report and found a credit card that I have no knowledge of. This card is a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX credit card with a limit of {$5500.00} that was opened on XX/XX/XXXX. At this time, it had a balance of {$1000.00} and was making on time payments monthly. On XX/XX/XXXX, I emailed XXXX for assistance on getting information on this credit card but they could not help me. So I contacted XXXX XXXX to get more information on this credit card since it is through their company. I kept getting passed along from different departments. They could not give me any information on the account because my personal info ( name and SSN ) did not match the account. An agent told me to fax and mail a letter attn to Credit Bureau Dispute to show any activity and account information that was listed on my report. I tried to fax but the number was non existent/not working. So I sent a letter. I received a letter back from XXXX XXXX basically stating they could not help me. 
In XX/XX/XXXX, I checked my XXXX XXXX again and saw it went down XXXX points ( XXXX ) because of this same credit card still listed under my credit report. The current balance on this card now exceeds their limit and is at {$7100.00}. 
I called XXXX XXXX again to try to get help and more information, but after I gave them my name and SSN, they do not have my personal info in any of their databases so they could not help me and said I need to go through the credit bureaus. 
So, I called TransUnion and filed a dispute on this credit card. I also spoke to an agent who said that was all I could do until the dispute was resolved. They said to also file disputes with other credit bureaus ( XXXX and XXXX ) and to freeze my credit. 
On TransUnion, I had an AKA name of XXXX XXXX XXXX and a phone number of ( XXXX ) XXXX. On XXXX, thats associated with my SSN, my name was listed as XXXX XXXX. The address was XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. And XXXX was XX/XX/XXXX. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, I got dispute results back from TransUnion, which they decided the investigation results were accurate, which I disagree with. So they advised that I start a report through this CFPB portal.
