Complaint narrative:
Recently, I noticed that I am starting to receive collection mails from banks. I called and asked what is going on, and I was told that there are several accounts opened last year with my information. I told them that I have never submitted any types of application to their companies. They asked my address, email address, phone number, social security number, date of birth, and name. Surprisingly, Some of cards mailed to my business addresses, and some of them were mailed to my home in the state of GA. However, I never received those cards before. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, so I couldn't check my mailbox everyday. Maybe someone got access to my mailbox and took the card after they applied for it. But that does not mean that I am responsible for these cards ' payments and outstanding balances. I already informed what is happening, and I also submitted FTC report to XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion. It has been about few months now, but I see no changes in my credit report. As a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in other state this year, but with current status of my credit report -- full of credit cards that I have never applied for -- I can't even get any commercial loan. I am not sure what my credit bureaus are doing, but although I submitted all documents they requested ( copy of my driver 's license, social security card, utility bill, and FTC report ), I see no efforts of my credit bureaus. Everything remains same, no updates, nothing. My most recent dispute case closed with the result of " these are correct information '' did not explain anything. I don't know what kind of document or verification document they received from credit card companies, but I never got a chance to look at it. I asked if they can send me a copy of what they have, but they rejected my request and said : unfortunately we can not provide you any documents from creditors due to privacy information. Well, they started dispute case because they were able to verify that I am the one who submitted these disputes. Then how come they can not provide me any proof for privacy issue? Representatives said that they sent out a mail explaining everything, but the result letter did not explain anything. I just saw a letter saying their investigation concluded as " they are all correct information. '' BUT HOW DO THEY EXPECT ME TO AGREE WITH INVESTIGATION RESULT WITHOUT ANY PROOF? I don't even know how identity thief obtained my information, what kind of information was submitted. I can't understand or agree with their process of investigation. As a result, they made me come to you ( CFPB ) and to ask for help with my current status. I never applied for any credit cards with these companies.
