Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX XXXX I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX OPM data breach as well as Equifax 's XXXX  data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

Company: Viking Client Services
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX, Iowa XXXX Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to submit a complaint regarding the actions of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and Viking Client Services , LLC in relation to a successfully disputed charge on my debit card.

On XX/XX/2023, I rented a car from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and provided them with my credit card information for payment. The rental car rented, had pre-existing damage from a prior rental. I have included pictures that I took of the car when I received it, which clearly shows there were preexisting cosmetic damage to the car. Ive given the rental staff at XXXX XXXX XXXX to document the the pre-existing damage but the customer represented noted that the rental agreement was already delivered to me electronically. 

Additionally XXXX rented me a car with low tire pressure. I received the low-tire pressure warning 5 minutes after I drove the car off the lot. Their lack of maintenance and inspection is extremely concerning. XXXX put me in a dangerous situation by renting me a car with existing damage and also low tire pressure. 

After the rental period was over, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX charged my credit card in the amount of {$65.00} and attempted to charge me for the rental cars pre-existing damages. I contacted my bank to dispute the charge, and after a thorough investigation, my bank determined that the charge was not valid and was successfully reversed. 

However, to my surprise, I recently received a notice from a debt collector, Viking Client Services LLC, noting that I am still responsible for the {$65.00}. I was shocked and confused by this, as I had already won the dispute with my bank. 

I believe that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  and Viking Client Services, LLCs actions are in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and other relevant consumer protection laws. I would appreciate it if the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau could investigate this matter and take appropriate action against XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for their illegal and unethical behavior. 

Please find attached all relevant documentation, including my bank 's letter stating that the disputed charge was reversed. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
