Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2024, I received an email from First Financial Bank ( XXXX ) saying thank you for enrolling in online banking. However, I never did this. I searched for the company online, called the company, and spoke to their fraud team who asked me for my social security number. I refused to give it out. They claim they can't lookup my info without it. It seems like the entire thing is a scam, but I am worried someone is using my info to open a bank account - I just can't get any more details from them. I would like to know if someone actually tried to use my info to open a bank account, or if this company is just a scam. There seem to be multiple " First Financial Bank '' s online with different logos.

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late.

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ]. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.
