Complaint narrative:
In my previous complaint, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX XXXX data breach as well as Equifax 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over XXXX  days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

Complaint narrative:
Credit karma/ the bank they use for their bank account and debit cards refused to increase my daily spending limit despite funds being in the account so I requested to close the account immediately and transfer the funds to my bank account on file. I was told I couldnt speak to anyone on the phone to close the account and had to email. Ive emailed and now am being told that I will get a response on my request to close account but they have yet to respond to my continued emails and calls demanding my account be closed and money from the account-be sent. They are holding my money XXXX and I cant withdraw, transfer money or even cancel my account. I feel they are predatory in nature as they basically forced me to sign up an account when filing my taxes with XXXX. How can I live if I cant use my own money. Is this legal?

Hi, My name is XXXX XXXX. I sent a letter concerning erroneous and unknown things on my credit score record. To this present day, over 30 days later, I actually have no longer obtained a response yet. I sense like Im being taken advantaged of and being unnoticed. Section 611 ( a ), It states that failure to research these objects inside 30 days offers a purpose to straight away remove those items from my credit report. Its been over 30 days so they have to be deleted directly. I demand that those debts be deleted without delay or I will report for litigation due to the stress you have caused me. My records turned into also impacted by way of the Equifax data breach and might are becoming into the fingers of the wrong person.

So I sent those written statement with more details communication between XXXX technicion which I had kept getting canceled on delivering services back on XXXX to Chase dispute department, had been waiting several month for a response back between paper mail and online communication center which l had not seen any response, I called them today ( XX/XX/2022 ) around XXXX and spoke to the customer service representive on dispute department and told they had send a notice to me which l had never received, they already closed the case which from the document provided from merchant demonstrating the goods I had ordered and they believed I already have received the service from the look of the service contract from the merchant. I asked to representative, as nature of the service contract it's normal they had itemized list of the goods I would have gotten serviced which it was garage door and opener but I have not gotten service nor seen a product, I told the agent I could even send the picture of my garage which never gotten the service, Agent did not want to help me out with any other option and advised me even if l re submitted claim which not it already has been passed windows for on going investigation and would not be able to guarantee for the other outcome. How this could be my fault or responsibility to pay for the service I had not received, or injustice has been done during the dispute process? I had been reaching out, tried to use proper channel to resolve an issue, I also have reached out to merchant, their coorperate phone line and personnel put me on a hold with the promise to transfer then hung up on me. I am very frustrated with Chase credit card service regarding how they handled the whole dispute transaction, and communication between them and customers. 
Thank you for your time. 
Hope to hear from you soon.
