Reference : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX Balance Reported : {$560.00} I have disputed this account from XXXX XXXX XXXX multiple times and it is still reporting on my credit.

It is well over 30 days and I have not received any communication from the debt collector but they are still reporting on my credit. I've asked them to send me these items or to remove these accounts from my credit and cease and desist any further action.

Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
A fraudulent student loan account was opened in my name without my knowledge or consent, listing me as a co-signer. I was not aware of this account until I reviewed my credit report on XX/XX/year>, and saw a Citizens Bank/XXXX  XXXX student loan reporting under my name. I have no association with the primary borrower ( XXXX XXXX ), and I did not authorize, apply for, or co-sign any such loan. 

Upon discovering the fraud, I took the following steps : Filed a police report with XXXX Police Department on XX/XX/year>, Case Number:XXXX  Submitted an FTC Identity Theft Report on XX/XX/year> Sent a signed Identity Theft Affidavit and written statement describing the situation Provided a copy of my government-issued ID and my credit report showing the unauthorized account I submitted all of these documents to Citizens Bank/XXXX XXXX via email on XX/XX/year> XXXX Despite this, they continue to report the fraudulent account to the credit bureaus. They claimed I ratified the loan based on address history which is not proof of consent or authorization. They also requested signature samples, although this is a case of identity theft, not forgery. 

I followed up multiple times, and on XX/XX/year>, I received a response saying they couldnt verify my identity, even though they already have my police report, ID, and other official documents. 

This fraudulent loan is negatively affecting my credit. I am requesting the immediate removal of this account from all credit bureaus and written confirmation that I am not responsible for this loan.

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information being reported on my credit report regarding a Victoria 's Secret credit card account. I have noticed that this account is being reported as part of my credit obligations. However, I was only an authorized user on this accountnot the primary account holderand therefore should not be held liable for the debt or its impact on my credit profile. 

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), particularly Section 605B and Section 609 ( c ), I have the right to dispute any inaccurate or incomplete information. Reporting an authorized user 's account as if it is a joint or individual obligation is misleading and materially inaccurate. 

Furthermore, under FCRA Section 623, data furnishers have a duty to report accurate information. This account is being incorrectly associated with me in a manner that implies legal responsibility, which I do not hold.

Company: BMO BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I had a perfect standing account with my BMO credit card. I paid in FULL and on time each month. Then I requested my cashback rewards and they closed my account without notice or reason. I called 4 different numbers to contact BMO which all employees stated they can't see that information as to why my credit card was closed, but they did do their written spiel about how BMO has the right to close any account at any time for any reason. That is fine, I don't really need the card. BUT BMO must tell an account holder what decision they chose to make that decision to close a customers account. It's not even company protocol for any company to deny a customer a service without a reason. Just state the reason. As it stands right now on line on multiple platforms, peoples accounts were closed as soon as they asked for their cash back rewards. So, I am assuming that is the reason due to the thousands of reports on this topic. But still, BMO must state to its customers why they choose to close someone's account, especially when they had a perfect record of paying in full and on time. When I tried to get this answer through the XX/XX/XXXX, BMO even refused to answer the XX/XX/XXXXon this issue. It's a black eye on BMO and lots of content creators are reporting this, which is good for the public to know not to do business with them. I am just requesting a reason, nothing more. Just give me a legit reason. I believe that is my right. Here are a few suggested reasons on line as to why they are doing this to multiple good standing customers : BMO has been closing customer accounts without providing clear reasons, which has affected customers who have been using their cash back credit cards. Users have reported that their accounts were closed with no prior notice or explanation, despite having good credit scores and maintaining their accounts responsibly as soon as they requested their cash back rewards. 
Some customers suspect that the closures might be due to internal financial issues or changes in business strategy. Others speculated about political motivations, particularly in light of tensions between XXXX and the United States. 
If you are experiencing similar issues, it may be helpful to document all communications with BMO and consider seeking assistance from consumer protection agencies or legal advice.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against TransUnion for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report. Despite my submissions, TransUnion consistently responds within 24 hours stating the account is accurate, without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation. This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes Furthermore, TransUnion actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C. 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding File No. 2025-CFPB-0002 ) against them for similar violations.

These are the accounts that I marked inaccurately. # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. # XXXX XXXX  ( Duplicate ) which report under different collection agency as well. and XXXX XXXX XXXX

State: PA

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX EXPERIAN XXXX  was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on Autopay. 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. 


EQUIFAX EXPERIAN XXXX  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
