Complaint narrative:
I recently discovered XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  {$250.00} on my credit report from TRANSUNION. This is extremely embarrassing and concerning. TRANSUNION does not have my authorization to share my personal information. I will not be paying this alleged debt unless you provide a bill of sale, assignment, or any other agreement between you and the original creditor that proves your authorization to collect on this debt. I have reason to believe you are attempting to extort me by punishing me for non-payment on an extension of credit. Please be aware that under 18 USC 894, it is a crime to collect or attempt to collect by punishing a person for non-payment. Your actions have damaged my creditworthiness, causing me to be denied other extensions of credit that I am entitled to. You do not have my consent for these actions. If you claim to be the creditor, you will be held liable under TILA for any violations. Additionally, you are in violation of the FDCPA for harassment and for furnishing false and misleading information to third parties without my consent. Under the Gramm Leach Bliley Act, you must have my permission to share my financial information with a third party, which you do not have. Furthermore, under 15 USC 1681b, you must have a permissible purpose to obtain and use my credit report, which you have failed to establish. This message serve as formal notice that I will not be paying this debt and I demand that you cease and desist all collection efforts through all mediums, including credit repo

Ive informed all parties of the issue & provided the necessary documentation to support my claim. The credit reporting agency ( CRA ) & data furnisher ( DF ) are not complying with federal law in regard to identity theft. Additionally, the credit reporting agency & data furnisher have not provided me with any evidence of an open contract, signed contract, or any valid proof this was opened, authorized, or created by me.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ] XXXX, Tx, XXXX ] XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Dear, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau I am writing to formally dispute the collection account listed on my credit report. I notice discrepancies in the personal information section, which I believe is inaccurate. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I am entitled to accurate and verifiable information on my credit report. I am requesting that this collection account be investigated and removed if it is found to be inaccurate or unverifiable. 
Disputed Account Details : Collection Agency Name : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX Date of entry : XX/XX/XXXX Reason for Dispute : 1. I have not been afforded the opportunity to dispute the account in accordance with 12CFR 1006.34 ( c ) ( 4 ) ( ). This denial of the dispute process deprives me of my right to challenge any inaccuracies or discrepancies regarding the alleged debt. 
2. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has resorted to false, misleading, and deceptive means in their collection efforts, thereby violating my consumer rights. Such unethical practices undermine the integrity of the debt collection process and cause undue distress to consumers. 
3. Furthermore, the agency lacks the authority to furnish any account to consumer reporting agencies without adhering to the necessary disclosures mandated by law. By neglecting to fulfil their obligations under 12 CER 1006.34 ( d ) and 15 USC 1681-S 2 ( 7 ) ( A ). 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is flagrantly disregarding consumer protection statutes. 
I demand that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate these egregious Legal Basis for Dispute : 1. Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : Under Section 611 of the FCRA, I have the right to dispute inaccurate or incomplete information on my credit report. The credit bureau is required to investigate the disputed information and ensure that it is accurate and verifiable. If the information can not be verified, it must be removed from my credit report. 
2. Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) : Under Section 809 of the FDCPA, I am entitled to verification of the debt from the collection agency. If the collection agency can not provide proper verification or validation of the debt, it must cease collection efforts and remove the account from my credit report. 
Request for Action : I request that you investigate this matter and provide me with the results of your investigation. If the collection account is found to be inaccurate or unverifiable, I ask that it be removed from my credit report. Please provide me with written confirmation once the correction has been made. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your response within the timeframe required by law.

Product: Checking or savings account — CD (Certificate of Deposit)
Issue: Managing an account — Problem with renewal
Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: DE

Complaint narrative:
I have two Certificates of Deposit ( CDs ) with Citizens Bank that matured and were renewed this year. During in-person meetings with Citizens Bank representatives , I was provided with documents confirming that the renewals were successful and that the CDs would follow the predefined interest rates. However, this did not happen as promised. 

For the first CD, which matured in XX/XX/year>, I renewed it on XX/XX/year>, with a predefined interest rate of 5 % APY. However, over the subsequent five months, Citizens Bank failed to honor this agreement. The monthly interest payment was less than {$2.00}. I visited the branch twice, once in XXXX and again in XXXX, to address the issue. My concerns were ignored during the first visit in XXXX. After my last visit in XXXX, the bank finally began to address the problem. Unfortunately, the updated interest payments still do not match the agreed-upon terms. The most recent interest payment for the first CD was {$180.00}, whereas it should have been closer to {$300.00} as per our agreement. 

For the second CD, I also renewed it at a 5 % APY rate. Yet again, the new interest payments do not align with what was stated in the contract. The most recent payment was {$56.00}, while it should have been closer to {$180.00} as per our agreement. 

My spouse and I recently welcomed a XXXX, and we are diligently saving for our first home. Despite our best efforts to resolve this issue with Citizens Bank, our attempts have been unsuccessful. We kindly request your assistance in holding Citizens Bank accountable.
