My information was used to open fraudulent accounts, such as credit cards, loans and collections, XXXX XXXX, Consumer Social Security Number : ( XXXX ), Date of Birth : ( XX/XX/XXXX ), This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you, the XXXX credit reporting agency, block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint.

I do not recognize the aforementioned accounts, collections, or hard inquiries as reported. The aforementioned accounts, collections, and hard inquiries appearing on my consumer credit report maintained by you were not opened, made, or initiated by me. All of the aforementioned accounts, collections, and hard inquiries are the result of identity theft and fraud. I have attached a copy of FTC Identity Theft Criminal Complaint # XXXX as proof from the US Federal Trade Commission that all of the aforementioned consumer credit accounts, collections, and hard inquiries are the result of identity theft and fraud.

Issue: Opening an account — Unable to open an account
Company: MIDFIRST BANK
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
Today I applied for a saving account at Vio Bank ( actually Midfirst Bank ). After entering multiple pages of accurate and verifiable personal information, my application was instantly rejected without any reason given. 
When I called Vio Bank and spoke to XXXX, who declined to give his last name, he was unwilling or unable to provide any reason why my application was denied. He did read me a long statement about " adverse decision '' which did nothing to answer my question. 
Vio uses an outfit named XXXX XXXX to investigate applicants for things like excess check orders and mishandling of accounts. They call themselves a " Consumer Reporting Agency '' which they say is " similar to a Credit Reporting Agency ''. When I called them, they confirmed that there was no negative information under my name and SSN. I downloaded a copy of the report that was provided to Vio and confirmed that to be true. 

XXXX did not seem to understand that Vio is violating one or more Federal laws each time they reject an application without providing a reason to the applicant. Those laws exist to prevent discrimination and abuse. Vio needs to comply with those laws. 

I am an outstanding credit risk, an outstanding citizen, and an outstanding depositor. I am ready to deposit hundreds of thousands of dollars into an account at Vio. I'm not sure how a bank can be successful when they turn away people like me.

Complaint narrative:
I have been trying for over a week to log into my Transunion account. I get to the part where a verification code is to be send either by email or text messaging. I NEVER receive a code by either method. I keep trying and nothing happens. One time I talked with a person who said I needed to change my password and he was going to send me a new link by email. That email NEVER came through. He had the correct address. I kept checking my spam and it never showed up there. I would like this fixed. It stopped me from having a possible lower interest loan.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section XXXX ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. Moreover, I was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Complaint narrative:
I was very surprised and disappointed to discover unauthorized credit inquiries and incorrect personal information made without my knowledge or approval. Despite my efforts to obtain clarification from the creditors, they have shamefully failed to give the requested information. I am demanding fast action and willingness from the creditors. Creditors must disclose full information about each inquiry, such as the dates, purposes, and types of credit products involved, as well as applicable application paperwork and evidence of explicit authorization. Please see the attached documents for my complaint!

Company: MOHELA
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
I applied for PSLF in XXXX of XXXX when I realized I had made the 120 payments required to qualify for forgiveness. It has been a year and 3 months since submitting my PSLF application, and despite having over 120 qualifying payments on all seven of my loans, only two have been forgiven as of XX/XX/XXXX. This has left the rest of my loans in limbo during this time. The unresolved status of my loans is negatively affecting my credit and preventing me from achieving personal and financial milestones. I have tried multiple times to contact MOHELA ; the phone numbers available either redirect you to the Federal Student Aid ( FSA ) office or disconnect without offering help. I have tried chatting online and no one can give me even an estimated time frame on when to expect to see my account reflected correctly. These online chat options fail to provide clear timelines or solutions. I've received no updates or estimated completion dates, only notices about my payments restarting ( which I shouldn't be receiving considering I won't be making any additional payments ), adding to my frustration and uncertainty.
