Complaint narrative:
Despite the multiple previous written requests, the unverified item listed below still remains on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditor documentation on file to verify that this information is 100 % true, accurate & correct.

In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigation ( s ), you stated in writing that you verifiedthat this item is being reported correctly? Who verified this item? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, you have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). Please be advised that under Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to ... promptly CORRECT or DELETE all information which can not be verified. Section 616 and Section 617 provide me with a remedy which Im about to seek. You are willful non-complying with the FCRA. 

Since you claim youve verified the item listed below I wanted to confirm my thoughts and contacted the companies directly. They did not provide me with any verifiable proof. So, my question comes up again, WHO VERIFIED THIS ITEM? I believe you have not verified this item based on Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & I will be seeking a legal remedy.

Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
My payment agreed to was XXXX dollars a month. This company upgraded their online system and as a result I could not pay my bill on time in XXXX. I called, they acknowledged it was a system error and they reversed the late fees and said if I paid XXXX dollars that would cover my bill until my XXXX payment. I have 18 months to pay off the bill with no interest. My XXXX bill shows XXXX dollars due now. I've tried calling and sat on hold for multiple hours trying to get to someone to talk about it without success. I finally got to a representative who was looking into it on XX/XX/XXXX. As I was on hold, the call dropped and no one called me back and the call center was then closed. The auto dialer for late payments calls after XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  which is illegal in XXXX. If you do happen to even answer the call, there is no one even on the line and it automatically hangs up once you say hello. My bill now shows XXXX dollars due but no breakdown on my bill as to what this amount entails.

Complaint narrative:
Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered several accounts that I do not recognize and believe to be fraudulent. These accounts appear to be opened without my authorization, and I am deeply concerned about the potential impact on my credit standing and financial well-being. I suspect that I am a victim of identity theft, as I have not initiated or authorized the opening of these accounts. The presence of these unauthorized accounts on my credit report has caused me significant distress and uncertainty about the security of my personal information. I have attached a copy of my credit report highlighting the unrecognized accounts for your reference.
