I have disputed the referenced accounts to the 3 main credit bureaus and do not owe your company anything. I dont know this company and I do not recall ever having this debt and appears to be fraud, see attached FTC Report. Moreover, no adequate information has been given and noticed these accounts appear to violate my rights as well, per 15 USC 1692 ( e ) ( f ) ( g ). Moreover, you stated the account was verified as accurate by law 15 USC 1681 ( e ). Per 15 USC 1681 ( e ) The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. Investigations weren't completed as described by law and no factual information should be on credit reports. Im requesting the removal of accounts and/or monetary compensation due to violations of my rights. Im currently seeking litigation regarding consistent harassment, unfair debt practices, adding without my permission/authorization within 5 days, and more. As the original creditor, only I can validate the debt therefore Im requesting removal and this account violates my consumer rights in several ways. Please remove and provide some updates within 4 days of receipt, as this has been ongoing for over XXXX months.

Complaint narrative:
It's been about 19 months ago that my wallet had gotten stolen and immediately contacted Wells Fargo customer service for help and explained the situation and they said they would do an investigation and they contacted me weeks later, stating that they could replace the funds. Again I explained that my wallet was stolen with all my information in it, and they apologized. Better never refunded money. Then about 8 months later they called and asked would I like to refile a claim. At that point I was frustrated and declined the offer. Also the account was closed due to lost funds.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY

Complaint narrative:
My father passed away on XX/XX/2022. 

I made an appointment XX/XX/XXXX to close the account. Wells Fargo personal banker said I needed additional documentation to close the account. I had to schedule another appointment. 

XX/XX/XXXX - Met with a Wells Fargo personal banker and they said I needed an additional form from the Co-trustee in order to proceed with closing the account. 

My sister [ Co-trustee from a different city ] met with a personal banker from Wells Fargo in different city and completed the forms and XXXX them to me to. 

XX/XX/XXXX - Met with the Wells personal banker with the completed forms and they proceeded to fill additional forms that they had me signed and were notarized. They said it would take 7-10 days to review before I could come back and close the account. 

Called XX/XX/XXXX to schedule an appointment for XX/XX/XXXX. This appointment was cancelled by the personal banker because there was an error on the form they completed. 
They said it could take until the end of XXXX to resolve. 

I called the Wells Fargo Estate Center XX/XX/XXXX and they told me the case was on hold until the error was fixed. 

Scheduled an appointment for XX/XX/XXXX. This appointment was cancelled by the personal banker because there was a backlog at the Wells Estate Center for reviewing the forms. 

I called the Wells Fargo Estate Center XX/XX/XXXX and they told me the case had still not been reviewed. 

I am waiting for a call from the Wells Fargo personal banker to schedule when I can come in to close the account. 

At this point, I have zero confidence that this will be resolved in a timely manner.
