This is one of my NUMEROUS request that I have been a victim of identity theft and that no one seems to care, that I want to dispute specific records in my credit file that do not belong to me, or that I have signed any agreement. The accounts I'm challenging have nothing to do with any transactions I've done or authorized to gain products, services, or money. Please remove the account : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX.

Complaint narrative:
I have called for a week and a half and can not get someone on the phone. The line plays elevator music and says someone will be on and then no one answers. 

Ive put myself on the call back list several times, no call back. Ive waited in line. All I need to do is set up my account to I pay something per month, ANYTHING. Youd think they want to answer so they can get a payment from me. 

I literally cant solve this issue by reading the website. Id solve it directly with the company if I could get on the phone with them. 

Ive submitted an email to them repeatedly, and Ive called multiple times. In total Ive been on hold for nearly 10 hours and Ive put myself on the call back list about 5 times.

They are closed right now and Im still on hold listening to elevator music like someone is going to answer the XXXX line. I cant be up ALL night for this. I work from the hour they open to the hour they close and I can not get them to answer.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
Venmo randomly locked me out of my account with no reason. When talking to their support, I am told that they can not see a reason why the account was locked and that they will need to escalate. When asked for timeline I am told 7 to 10 business days, but that is an unacceptable amount of time to be locked out of access to my money with no reason. 

When asking for a number for the escalation team, I am told there is no way for a consumer to speak with them. I must wait for their email, and each response will be an additional 7 to 10 business days. 

No warning, no reason given, and no access to funds stored. This is criminal activity and should be punished as such.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction with your decision to decline my identity theft claim. It is essential to clarify that your organization lacks the authority or legal position to determine whether I have been a victim of identity theft. Only I, the individual directly affected, can ascertain this fact. The following accounts are NOT MINE : XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. Your refusal to acknowledge my identity theft claim compels me to take this matter very seriously. Should you persist in declining my position, I will not hesitate to consult with my attorney to pursue all available legal remedies to rectify this situation. I trust that it is in both of our interests to avoid such an unnecessary legal course of action. I reject your offer & advise you to process my dispute per FCRA laws. Otherwise, we will be seeking a legal remedy in this matter.
