Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly

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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. 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 states. I did not provide written consent to report them.

Complaint narrative:
My account was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on XXXX. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 


This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 


I demand the late payment to be updated. 


They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 


15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 

Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 


I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 


This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 


Update the late payments from my consumer reports

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2024 - I emailed Best Buy/Citi inquiring on how to remove authorized users from my account. They instructed to tell me the only way is to speak to an agent. I did not have time to sit on hold for long periods of time and if there was no access to do this online via their website, that I would just report the cards lost in order to avoid future charges.

As of this date they blocked my complete access online to view/manage my account. As of this date ( XX/XX/2024 ) I have no access to view any transactions, statements or make any changes/updates to my account. 

My account was set for automatic payments and I dont have access to stop the payments as they have blocked my online access. On XX/XX/2024 they auto charged my bank in the amount of {$710.00}. As a consumer, I have the legal right to view, agree or decline any charges incorrectly billed on my account. How can they charge their consumers for transactions that can not be validated or confirmed? With the amount of identity thefts and credit card fraud they are required to provide the consumer with details of the charges tied to payments they deduct. 

I have requested a refund from the bank until I can review/ validate any and all transactions on my account before making a payment. 

I am attaching proof of my account access which shows a {$0.00} balance, {$0.00} transactions, no statements and NO minimum payment due yet are being deducted {$710.00} for " charges or statement balances ''. How can they charge me that amount when my account shows XXXX transactions or amount due.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX I called repeatedly. The AI that answers the phone is programmed to keep customers from talking to a human being. I called five times on XX/XX/XXXX and 4 times on XX/XX/XXXX constantly being refused to pass the call to a representative. I eventually got to a human by cheating the AI which was like pulling teeth. It is very hard to get to higher management which I didn't succeed in doing to get them to change the AI to provide passing the call to a human being. Something has to be done. A mortgage company can not be allowed to hide behind a hostile AI. I need your assistance to get the company to change that. I rarely call them, but when I do, I need them to respond.

Complaint narrative:
I lost my Bank of America credit card ( Credit Card 1 ). I immediately cancelled it and requested a new one be shipped. Credit Card 2 was shipped and was stolen while in process through XXXX. I never received it and instead received multiple fraudulent charges on my account totaling to {$240.00}. I cancelled this card and submitted a fraud claim, and received Credit Card 3 in the mail a week later. However, Bank of America denied the fraud claim, and when I called to ask why, the representative said it was because I had made a payment on Credit Card 3, proving I was in possession of it, although the fraud claim had been made to Credit Card 2, which I never received. I suspect this denial was made by AI, but even if it was a result of human carelessness, I am now responsible for the payment of {$240.00} which I did not authorize.

Complaint narrative:
Newrez LLC miscalculated my mortgage escrow amount for the upcoming year by using outdated insurance information. I called multiple times and tried to get them to update their information, even though I had confirmed receipt they had gotten my updated insurance information months before. It took multiple calls spread across multiple weeks before the information was correctly updated within their system. I then requested an updated escrow analysis and they stated it would be completed by a specific date. They did not complete the analysis by the date promised. I then had to call again and they told me they would put in another request. 

All in all, I have probably called 6 or 7 times and spent hours of my life trying to get the correct escrow amount on my loan and Newrez LLC keeps not properly saving and processing the information. Each time I call I am given empty promises and missed deadlines.
