I recently checked my credit report and noticed that there's a few inquiries that I don't recognize, I did not authorize, nor given consent to the company to pull up my credit report and it might've been done without my knowledge. It did a lot of damage to me. I need these fraudulent inquiries to be removed from my credit report ASAP in order to prevent further fraudulent activity under my account. Do anything necessary to remove them from my report. It is stressing me out and making me anxious. Hope you can address this soon, please.

Complaint narrative:
I just looked at my consumer reports and noticed a late payment on an account that I was never late for. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly says. I have never been late on payments and did not provide written consent to report the account : As CLEARLY stated in 15 U.S. Code 1681a ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ), a consumer report does NOT include ANY reporting containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. The reported information was an EXPERIENCE of mine, which means that the information must be EXCLUDED from my consumer report.

On XX/XX/year>, I sent a letter regarding inaccurate and unknown things on my credit report to this day over 60 days later, I have not received a response yet. 
I feel like Im being taken advantage of and being ignored for my disputes.

Section 611 ( a ), it is plainly stated that a failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report. It has been 60 days so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress you caused me. My information was also impacted by the Equifax data breach and they have got into the hands of the wrong person.

Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
In early 2024, I signed an agreement with XXXX XXXX to pay off my total debt of approximately {$5000.00}, which included a business credit card debt of {$2000.00} and a personal credit card debt of around {$2600.00} originally held by Bank of America. 

Later, I fully paid off the {$2000.00} business debt directly to Bank of America. Despite this, XXXX XXXX XXXX began contacting me and collecting payments from me, claiming to handle the charged-off personal debt. 

However, I recently learned that XXXX XXXX XXXX never updated the credit bureaus about the status of the debt or removed the charge-off from my reports. I also asked for a full accounting of all payments I made, but I have not received any documentation showing how the payments were applied or where my money went. 

Now that I have paid the debt, I am requesting XXXX XXXX XXXX to : Provide a full accounting of the funds I paid Clarify the legal basis for collecting this debt Update all credit bureaus to reflect the payment and remove the charge-off Their failure to do so is causing damage to my credit and may be a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ).
