Complaint narrative:
A few weeks ago I sent letters to all 3 credit bureaus regarding some items on my credit report which I know are not accurate. I know this is a violation of the FCRA and FDCPA so they must abide by the law. Everything I have provided in my letters is true and accurate to my knowledge. I! ve received emails and letters saying I! m using a 3rd party which is incorrect because I am the one sending my letters out and filing this complaint with no help from a credit repair company or 3rd party.

Complaint narrative:
Dear Sir/Madam, I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to formally dispute the inclusion of inaccurate public information on my credit report, specifically regarding a XXXX account with the account number XXXX. I believe that this information is in violation of federal law, as outlined in 15 USC 1681. 

Upon reviewing my credit report, I noticed that the XXXX account mentioned above is listed, and it is inaccurately reported.. 

I kindly request that you investigate this matter thoroughly and take the necessary steps to rectify the inaccuracies promptly. As per my understanding of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), it is crucial that information on credit reports is both accurate and fair. The inclusion of false XXXX information is not only damaging to my creditworthiness but also a violation of my rights under federal law. 

I request the immediate removal of the erroneous XXXX account ( Account XXXX XXXXXXXX ) from my credit report. I trust that your agency will conduct a comprehensive investigation into this matter to ensure that my credit report accurately reflects my financial history. 

I am prepared to provide any supporting documentation or evidence that may be necessary for your investigation. Please feel free to reach out to me if you require any additional information. 

I want to express my appreciation for your attention to this matter. Accurate credit reporting is vital to maintaining one 's financial standing, and I am confident that your agency will handle this dispute with the thoroughness and expertise it deserves.

Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers — Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
The company repeatedly sent mailers and emails to me encouraging me to apply for a line of credit in order to maintain my membership with them. I applied for the XXXX Credit card on a promotion that offered no balance transfer fees, and a low introductory balance transfer rate for a specific period of time. The promotion also advertised a lower credit rate with 18 % being the maximum. I included a credit card number and the balance I wanted to transfer to take advantage of the promotion. The credit limit I was approve for was significantly less than the credit limit I desired for the balance transfer. I requested a reevaluation of my payment history and creditworthiness and to consider raising the credit limit they offered. I asked for the specific factors they used to make their decision. They shared they did not offer the " credit limit I was requesting for new lines of credit ''. I should have applied for another type of card. '' I asked them to show me where that was advertised in the terms and conditions of the card or disclosures statements. They shared it was not disclosed. I commented had I known up front that I wouldn't be given the option to transfer the balance I requested or receive a lower rate I wouldn't have applied for their product. I encouraged them to update the language in their terms and conditions to alert members to this factor when applying for a new line of credit with them for this particular card. Their response was we have reviewed your account and we will not raise the credit limit at this time you can make this request in 3 months. In good faith, I applied for this card based off the information they provide in their terms and conditions but the ultimate decision they made was based on a factor I was even aware of because it was not shared up front. This is false advertisement in my opinion.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX Credit Bureaus continue to send me the same responses, " We have already investigated your claim, please allow us 30 days to complete our investigation. '' These Credit Bureaus are at fault, they have not provided anything to me but COMPUTER-GENERATED LETTERS in the last 75 days! They have not provided any original documents that I have signed from the Creditors listed on my credit reports. Furthermore, the Creditors, nor their Collection Agencies, have provided specific documents that I have signed! I am extremely frustrated that no action under the FCRA has been taken against these companies for their negligence. It would be for civil liability, and willful no-compliance. My letters have been sent over and over again, now for a period of more than 90 days! These Creditors, and Collection Agencies keep selling my information to each other, then reporting to XXXX. Equifax, and XXXX Credit Bureaus. These actions on the part of all these agencies are major violations of consumer privacy laws, and a host of other FCRA and FDCPA laws they have violated. 
I am hereby exercising my right under FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 7 ) to request a complete description of all methods used to investigate my aforementioned dispute. Again, let me repeat, you have NOT provided me with a copy of ANY original documentation required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ). As you know, under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to promptly DELETE all information which can not be verified. The law is very clear as to the civil liability and the remedy available to me for " negligent noncompliance '' ( Section 617 ) if you fail to comply. I am a litigious consumer and fully intend on pursuing litigation in this matter to enforce my rights under the FCRA.
