Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems — Other problem
Company: BMO BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
I had a Bank of the West cash back XXXX. During summer 2023, I experienced a decrease in income which caused me to fall behind on that and other accounts. Some of the companies I dealt with were reasonable and I was able to maintain the accounts and work out payment issues. That was not the case with Bank of the West and, later, XXXX. The account was closed without notice ( I had to find out about the closure through XXXX XXXX ). I was then inundated by repeated emails, texts and phone calls from XXXX personnel. 

At one point, XXXX collections offered a deal to compromise the amount owed. I did not avail myself of that offer as several BMO collections personnel advised that by bringing my account under the credit limit and current, the account would be reinstated. In no uncertain terms, I was advised on at least three occasions by different BMO collections representatives that the account would be reinstated and available for use if the payments were brought current. That seemed like an acceptable resolution at the time. I sacrificed payments on other accounts to become current on XXXX. When I did, the XXXX online site reflected the payments and available credit. 

I contacted XXXX to obtain a replacement card since the original card in my possession expired earlier this year. I was advised by BMO customer service that the account was revoked by collections and could not be reinstated, referring me back to collections. I spoke with collections and was advised that the earlier representations were in error and that the account could not be reinstated. I asked for the contact information of someone within XXXX to address my concerns. I was not given that information and was told that XXXX would " investigate ''.

Company: Spring Oaks Capital, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I received a letter from Spring Oaks Capital about a debt I allegedly owed. I have never done business with this company before, so I sent them an email asking for debt validation to their provided email. I havent received anything from them and they reported this account on my credit reports. This is a violation of FDCPA because they are reporting an invalidated debt. I believe this is a fraudulent account because they still havent sent me any form of validation.

Company: Bridgecrest Acceptance Corporation
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
" 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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late.

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my BRIDGECREST - XXXX. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

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.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them.

In the quiet humdrum of everyday life, a sudden jolt shattered the tranquility : I had become a victim of identity theft. Like a thief in the night, unseen hands had stolen my personal information, plunging me into a bewildering maze of uncertainty. With each fraudulent transaction and unauthorized account, the breach of trust cut deep, leaving me grappling with the unsettling reality of a violated identity. Yet, in the midst of chaos, a glimmer of resilience emerged, a resolve to reclaim what was rightfully mine and restore the harmony stolen by unseen adversaries. These are the following accounts need to be removed :

Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I was going through my credit report and noticed several hard credit inquiries that I don't believe I personally authorized. I've attempted to contacted each of those creditors listed and the credit bureaus that appears on my credit report. But after spending countless of hours and days on the phone with them and follow up through mail letters, Ive being giving run around, and they are still reporting inaccurate, incomplete and unverifiable items on my credit report. I've also personally wrote to the credit bureaus to look into this and I haven't received any responses over XXXX days. Again, I did not believe I personally authorized anyone employed by these companies to make any inquiry and view my credit report. This is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 1681b ( c ) and a serious breach of my privacy rights, and I would like these hard inquiries removed from my credit report immediately if they can not be verified.
