Complaint narrative:
" I was utterly shocked and devastated upon discovering unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries and inaccurate personal information made or reported without my knowledge or consent. Despite my efforts to seek clarification from the creditors, they have shamefully failed to provide the necessary information. I demand immediate action and transparency from the creditors. The creditors must provide detailed information on each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and types of credit products involved, furnish relevant application documents, and present evidence of explicit authorization for each inquiry. Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about!

Company: TekCollect Inc.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I dont know this company. I have never had a relationship with this company. This debt is not mine. The company has failed to provide me with any contract bearing my signature per my request. 

All they did was send me a detailed bill & a contract that does not have my signature. I requested the original contract bearing my signature. They have failed to do so. The signature on the contract does not belong to me. Ive already filed an identity theft report. This must be fraud because the contract does not have my signature They are continuing to violate my rights under the FCRA. I have been denied credit because of this.

Complaint narrative:
I applied for a credit card via XXXX XXXX, and was approved. I received the card and activated it as soon I received it. Today I attempted to use it, and the card came back declined which seemed odd as I have {$1000.00} available balance. I called ''Concora Credit '' customer service, and was shocked when they asked me to send them a copy of my ID, which i did via fax. Once i got the confirmation that the fax was received, I proceeded to follow up with a phone call, when I was informed, that it would take seven days to lift the block from the card and for me to be to use the card. I grew suspicion and went online, and googled this company ''Concora Credit ' and was appalled by the reviews I came across reading. I immediately called them back and closed my account. This is a scam company, and XXXX XXXX should be ashamed of themselves even offering clients to apply for this card.
