Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute and express my deep concern regarding the presence of inaccurate and unauthorized collection accounts appearing on my credit report. I have recently reviewed my credit file while preparing to apply for future housing, and to my shock, I discovered accounts that I have no knowledge of and have never authorized. These accounts severely damage my creditworthiness and prevent me from making essential life decisions for myself. I am completely unaware of the origins of these debts and strongly believe they result from identity theft or misreporting. This situation has made it extremely difficult to qualify for housing and is now creating a serious barrier to my livelihood. I am terrified that someone is actively using my personal information without my knowledge, and it has caused tremendous stress and hardship. In accordance with the FCRA, I am requesting that these accounts be investigated and removed from my credit report. Thank you for your urgent attention to this matter. Please confirm receipt of this letter and notify me of any updates regarding the investigation results.

Issue: Wrong amount charged or received — 
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
My wire transfer was sent on the wrong date. On XXXX I submitted a request for {$10000.00} to be wired on XX/XX/XXXX. Instead, Citibank sent it on XXXX. When I called to tell them they incorrectly sent the funds immediately, they said they would recall the wire and also confirmed there would be no fees associated with the recall. The returned money was received on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$9900.00}, so {$50.00} was missing. I called 3 times asking for Citibank to resolve this and credit me my {$50.00} for their error. The associates were not able to help.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
Today is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I originally filed a dispute with Equifax on XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding a {$9000.00} collection account from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ). Equifax closed the dispute prematurely on XXXX XXXX XXXX without verifying my identity, even though they had sent me a letter requesting identity verification on XXXX XXXX.

I sent the required documents via certified mail XXXX XXXX  as soon as I received the letter, which was delivered to their XXXX XXXX  on XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, according to USPS tracking. As of XX/XX/XXXX, Equifax has still not retrieved the mail. 
Despite never validating my identity, Equifax verified the collection account, which is a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). This is both negligent and unlawful. 
I called Equifax on XXXX XXXX XXXX and was forced to re-dispute the same account. They then mailed me a response on XX/XX/XXXX, stating that my new dispute is frivolous and will not be investigated, and that they are investigating the original dispute. However, more than 30 days have already passed since the original dispute was filed on XX/XX/XXXX.

State: CO

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.
