Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint narrative:
This creditor is reporting inaccurate information on my consumer report. Ive asked for verification, and they failed to verify the account. Furthermore, the account is inaccurate because it is listed as an inaccurate status that does not correspond with the status that the account is in. I requested the form 1099c as per the IRS when the account is in charged off status or a form 1099c has been filed and ignored that request and it seems that a form 1099c was not filed therefor the account was not charged off. So, its been reported inaccurately and pursuant 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 this account must be deleted pursuant those laws.

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/XXXX I purchased 2 sofas & 2 chairs from XXXXXXXX XXXX. The furniture totaled {$2300.00} no where near the {$8200.00} amount being reported on my credit report by XXXXXXXX XXXX. I have no idea where this amount came from. I agreed to do a 12 months same as cash deal with the sales person at XXXX. It was right before they closed for the day & their printer ran out of ink & they could not provide me with copies of any of my agreement and agreed to email me copies, but then they did not. 

I had made payments totaling {$2100.00} then contacted XXXXXXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX to pay my remaining balance so that I could pay the account off prior to the 12 months at the cash purchase amount, but the remaining balance I was given was not at all correct. They quoted me an outrageous amount over {$6000.00}, no where close to what should have been owed. I could not ever get XXXXXXXX XXXX to send me copies of my paperwork that I didnt received upon purchase or afterwards by email as promised.. I never got an explanation to what was going on, so in early XXXX, I contacted the District Manager XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) through an email I found on a letter & he told me a balance of {$940.00} which was much closer to the amount that should have been owed.. I asked him how I could go about paying this amount & he never responded.. so I tried again to call the # I had to pay the account off but was still being told the much higher balance.. Im not trying to make excuses but around that same time my mother was diagnosed with XXXX XXXX XXXX & my time & energy went into caring for her, not arguing with them & the debt took a backseat in my life.. After my mom passed away, I tried once again to resolve the situation.. without any luck & upon finding multiple lawsuits & countless records of this company doing the same thing to other consumers I filed a dispute with the credit bureaus without any luck. It says they verified the account but I wasnt provided any documentation of this & I dont understand how they verified information that is so incorrect.. I have no problem paying the {$940.00} that I owed on the account, but I will not pay thousands of dollars that I do not owethe incorrect information is effecting my life in a very negative way.. employers in the field of my finance background wont hire me based on a collection on my credit report & Ive also been denied credit.. any help in resolving this matter would be much appreciated..

Complaint narrative:
U.S. Bank run a {$500.00} welcome bonus for opening new checking account by XXXX XX/XX/XXXX and have qualified direct deposit of {$6000.00} during the first 60 days. Here is the detail of the promotion https : XXXX But after I fulfilled my requirements on direct deposit, I have not seen my bonus to be credited. When I contacted CS through Live agent chat, the XXXX agent refuse to credit my bonus. I was told that even though I met all requirements of apply promo code and direct deposit amount, their system showed that the account was opened on XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. This is not verified as I completed all the step to open my account and received U.S. Bank 's notification email mentioning that the checking account number was ready and deposit transaction was successful all on XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. These emails was attached with this complaint. 
I was not convinced by what they said, because I got the email from U.S.Bank about successful account opening on XXXX XX/XX/XXXX not on XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. If the code was expired, it should have notified me right on when I applied it. But everything went through as they still it the promo code attaching to my profile currently. The date of XXXX XX/XX/XXXX they are seeing on the system could be the date of first deposit showing up, but it should not be the account opening date.

Company: CL Holdings LLC
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
I got a copy of my credit report and noticed a few incorrect accounts. Never received a phone call or letter or any other type or communication from them. I asked the credit bureaus to investigate and the results came accurate. I sent another letter asking how they verified the information and I haven't received any answer. I sent a letter to the collection company and they just sent me a generic bill. I respectfully asked for a proper validation with date of services and proof that statue of limitations wasn't expired and they sent me a letter saying that they can't sue me because the debt is old but they will continue reporting the account with the credit bureaus. They sent again the same copy of a generic bill as proof of validation. According to the XXXX bill they sent the dates are from 2019 which is totally false. I have had XXXX for the past 10 years under my husbands name. I am assuming they are re-aging an old account and is totally against the law.

Bank Of America stole the content of my account on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of XXXX. This account I opened 7 years earlier in my name for the use of paying my mothers bills as her conservator/guardian. BofA had no right to take the money to begin with but they have forced me to send in a death certificate etc. etc.. and I've done it all but they simply ignore me other than telling me to do things, which I've done all of what they've asked. At each step they ignore me and I have to call them again to restart the process. This appears to be a way to make money for the banks or maybe it's a prejudice thing where they are XXXX and I am XXXX and they are simply messing with me. Either way, they had no right to take the money to begin with and now they are only messing with me at every step.
