The creditors must submit pertinent application materials, show proof of express authority for each query, and give comprehensive details about each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and the kinds of credit products involved. To see what I'm complaining about, please refer to the attached file! 

All of the aforementioned accounts, collections, and hard inquiries are the result of identity theft and fraud. I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be no confusion or stall tactics on your end.

Company: FinCo Services Inc DBA Current
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I rented a vehicle from XXXX ( Rental Agreement # XXXX, XXXX # XXXX ) at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The car had severe safety defects : bald front tires with exposed wires, extreme alignment pull, and it suffered a tire blowout while driving. 

I immediately notified XXXX roadside assistance on XX/XX/year>. XXXX recovered the vehicle on XX/XX/year>, confirming the vehicle was unsafe and undrivable. 

This constitutes a complete failure to deliver the services I paid for ( a safe, roadworthy vehicle ). Under the Fair Credit Billing Act, this is a valid billing error ( services not provided or not as agreed ). 

I filed a timely written dispute with my card issuer. Today, XX/XX/year>, the bank denied the dispute and marked it Dispute Lost for the full {$2600.00}. 

The denial is improper because : - The merchant itself recovered the unsafe vehicle, proving the services were not delivered. 
- Regulation Z 1026.13 ( a ) ( 3 ) explicitly covers goods or services not accepted by the consumer and not delivered as agreed. 
- The bank failed to conduct a reasonable investigation. 

I am requesting the full {$2600.00} be permanently credited to my account.
