Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
It has come to my attention. That my personal information and my identity have been compromised. I received a notice in the mail that I was involved in the Equifax data breach. I find it very alarming that your company continues to violate my rights, by reporting my personal information and following accounts incorrectly.

I have the right to privacy.

15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States, I have the right to privacy.

15 U.S.C. 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ) There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and respect for the consumers right to privacy.

15 U.S.C 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) - nothing can be furnished on my consumer report without my written consent 15 U.S. Code 1611 - Criminal liability for willful and knowing violation Whoever willfully and knowingly ( 1 ) gives false or inaccurate information or fails to provide information which he is required to disclose under the provisions of this subchapter or any regulation issued thereunder, 15 U.S.C 1692 ( C ) Without the prior consent of the consumer given directly to the debt collector or the express permission of a court of competent jurisdiction, a debt collector may not communicate with a consumer in connection with the collection of any debt.

15 U.S.C. 1681-11681x The Act ( Title VI of the Consumer Credit Protection Act ) protects information collected by consumer reporting agencies such as credit bureaus, medical information companies, and tenant screening services. Information in a consumer report can not be provided to anyone who does not have a purpose specified in the Act. Companies that provide information to consumer reporting agencies also have specific legal obligations, including the duty to investigate disputed information. In addition, users of the information for credit, insurance, or employment purposes must notify the consumer when an adverse action is taken on the basis of such reports.

Therefore I want the following accounts to be updated to the correct amount, date, status, open and closed date, last date of activity, and time.

If you can not complete this request, please delete the accounts immediately. I have provided an exhibit of evidence showing the inaccuracies of my reports.

Please investigate if every piece of information is correct. If not, please remove it from my credit report.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/, I contacted the branch in regards to my IRS/Employment Retention Credit for covid-19 XXXX XXXX  owners, that I had received. To my surprise, I was informed by the bank staff, specifically XXXX ( Acct Risk Closures Department ), that my check needed verification from the IRS before the funds could be made available in my account. However, I had already contacted the IRS, who confirmed the validity and legitimacy of the check, they also confirmed that they do not offer check verification internally so I was given misleading information from your financial institution. IRS prompted that the check be verified through https : //tcvs.fiscal.treasury.gov The reason for this letter is to formally request an immediate resolution to two significant issues : the unjustified hold placed on my funds and the lack of transparency regarding the status of the check verification. According to the terms and conditions of my account agreement, the processing time for check deposits is clearly specified, and the bank is expected to abide by the agreed timeline. 

Not only has Bank of America exceeded the stipulated time duration for processing my deposit, but the lack of communication and appropriate feedback regarding the status of the check hold is highly distressing. In particular, XXXX displayed an unprofessional and discourteous demeanor during our conversation. He abruptly hung up the phone without offering any explanation for the extended hold duration or providing me with the necessary details about the check verification process. I was left on hold for hours to be treated poorly and unfairly.

Complaint narrative:
15USC 1681 a ( d ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) clearly states that transactions between the consumer and the Person/Corporation making the report is NOT included on the consumer reports. Yet XXXX, XXXX, Equifax is reporting this information.. The reporting of excluded information pursuant to 15USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) on a consumer report is a clear violation of Metro2 compliance. Provide me with the Metro2 compliance disclosure on reporting transactions to a consumer reporting agency. I need the transactions reporting as late, collection/charge-off status and any other derogatory information deleted from my consumer reports effective immediately. Before you think to reply that this account has been " validated '', let 's be clear that I am not asking you to validate or verify anything. So please do not respond by telling me that as a tactic to waste my valuable time. Some of the negative accounts have been placed in Collection/Charge-Off Status WITHOUT mailing me a copy of IRS form 1099-C Cancellation of Debt. XXXX, XXXX, Equifax and the creditors reporting collections/Charge-Offs, late payments/other derogatory information in my consumer reports are in violation of 26 USC ss 6050P Returns Relating to the Cancellation of Indebtedness By Certain Entities. If all this derogatory account information is not deleted from my consumer reports within 30 days, I will be forced to officially file IRS form 3949A : Information Referral AND IRS form 211 : Application For Award For Original Information Overview with the Internal Revenue Service against ALL entities involved.

I leased a vehicle through ally in XX/XX/XXXX, and in XX/XX/XXXX I sold the vehicle as a dealer buyout. Fast forward to earlier this year ( XXXX ) I was made aware that there was a balance on the account that I was not unaware of. I decided to do a payment plan for the balance, upon completing the payment plan on XXXX XXXX, they reported my account as late, delinquent and settled, which dropped my credit score more than 100 points. I feel like this was unethical and I was not made aware that this was being report to the credit bureaus, and figured this was just a in house matter. I have had my credit history for then 15 years and I have never in life had a late or Miss payment, this 100+ point deduction on my credit report has been detrimental to me and my future
