Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, This is a second and final notice. I'm reaching out again regarding fraudulent accounts and unauthorized inquiries being reported under my name. Let me be clear : I am the consumer, and I am writing this letter personally. There is no third party involved. So please do not send me another stall letter or generic response that approach is unacceptable and shows disregard for both federal law and consumer rights. 
This matter has already been raised and documented, yet these inaccurate and fraudulent entries remain on my credit file. This is not just a reporting error it's a serious identity theft issue, and your inaction is now bordering on willful non-compliance.

Violations of Federal Law and Consumer Rights : 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( c ) Unauthorized Inquiries You are not allowed to furnish credit reports for transactions I didnt authorize. The inquiries listed below were not initiated by me and must be deleted.

Ive already provided you with everything necessary including my FTC Identity Theft Report, government-issued ID, Social Security card , and proof of address.

15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) Failure to Reinvestigate If you do not reinvestigate or verify the entries within the time permitted by law, and can not produce legitimate records showing my authorization, you are obligated to permanently remove them.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: The CBE Group, Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
This is a follow-up to a previous complaint I filed against CBE Group Inc. regarding wagXXXX garnishment for an alleged debt I do not recognize. That complaint was closed without resolution. 

CBE claimed they mailed a notice to an old APO address where I no longer reside. I never received it, and unclaimed mail at APO boxes should be returned to sender. CBE provided no confirmation of delivery, no return notice, and no forwarding. That does not qualify as legal notice. 

I also sent a certified debt validation letter on XX/XX/year>, which they claim they never received. I have the certified mail receipt proving otherwise. 

Despite this, they continue to garnish my wages without responding to my dispute or validating the debt. 

I am requesting : Immediate investigation Confirmation that my rights under FDCPA and due process have not been violated Return of all garnished wages if proper validation can not be provided Previous complaint reference number : XXXX

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION

Complaint narrative:
I reached out to BANK OF AMERICAN via phone and certified mail ( see attached ). I claimed BOA were no compliant due to the following. No Written Notice Was Ever Received TILA 1666b and 1637 ( b ), No Notice Before Reporting Negative Information FCRA 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 7 ), Violation of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ( GLBA ), a lack of proof for debt compliance procedure. BOA has a right to protect the consumers private information, be truthful and most importantly be in compliance with the laws the protect the small consumers against giant cooperations. however, this was not the case. they arrogantly responded to my request by simply sating " all accounts were reported as accurate ''. that is not a valid response to my request. ok so you done your investigation, then provide me with the facts. I will take be taking this a step further and file a complaint with the OCC and then ultimately legal action.

Complaint narrative:
b'I am filing this complaint against TransUnion for failing to respond to two written disputes I submitted and for refusing to conduct a reasonable investigation into inaccurate information on my credit report, which is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).\nOn XXXX XXXX XXXX, I mailed a formal dispute letter to TransUnion via USPS Certified Mail Tracking XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I disputed an account being reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX due to the following concerns:\nThe account may be reporting inaccurately or incompletely. The Date of Last Payment is not provided, and the two-year payment history is entirely absent, rendering the accounts payment history unverifiable and incomplete. The account shows a Charged off as bad debt status and a comment of Profit and loss writeoff, which suggest the debt may have been resolvedyet this is not clarified, potentially resulting in misleading reporting.\nFurthermore, I have been informed that this account was previously deleted from my credit report and has since been reinserted without proper notification or any documentation verifying its accuracy.\nBecause of these omissions, potential inaccuracies, and the improper reinsertion, I demanded that TransUnion conduct a full investigation and, if the account cannot be verified as accurate and complete, to remove it permanently from my credit report.\nI included all required identification documents with my dispute:\nA copy of my government-issued ID\n\n\nA copy of my Social Security card\n\n\nA recent utility bill as proof of address\n\n\nTransUnion never responded to my dispute, as required under FCRA 611. To resolve the issue, I mailed a second dispute letter on XXXX XXXX XXXX  again including all necessary documents and disputing the same account. Once again, TransUnion ignored my request, providing no response or results of an investigation.\nThese actions violate the following FCRA provisions:\n611(a)(1): Failure to conduct a reasonable investigation\n\n\n611(a)(6): Failure to notify me of the results of the reinvestigation within 30 days\n611(a)(5)(B): Failure to notify me of reinsertion of previously deleted information'
