Company: Resurgent Capital Services L.P.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally report LVNV Funding LLC for violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) regarding a loan that has been incorrectly reported to the credit reporting agencies as belonging to me. 

Despite my repeated attempts to resolve this matter, LVNV Funding LLC has failed to provide any signed documentation or contract evidencing that the loan in question is mine. Specifically, I have requested these documents twice, but LVNV Funding LLC has not complied with my requests. 

Additionally, LVNV Funding LLC has not marked the item as disputed with the credit reporting agencies, as required by FCRA regulations. This failure to accurately report the disputed status of the debt is a clear violation of my rights under the FCRA. 

Additionally, please be informed that this loan has been reported to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) as a fraudulent item under identity theft. A copy of the FTC identity theft report is attached for your reference. This further underscores the urgency and gravity of the situation, and the need for immediate action to rectify this issue and prevent further harm. 

I kindly request that you take appropriate action to investigate LVNV Funding LLC 's non-compliance with FCRA regulations and ensure that the incorrect information is corrected and that the item is properly marked as disputed.

Issue: Closing an account — Company closed your account
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I had a series of checking and savings accounts at First Republic Bank ( FRB ), as well as investment accounts ; separately, I had a checking account at Chase. When FRB was acquired by Chase, all my accounts transferred over on XX/XX/XXXX and I was told all terms and conditions would stay the same until XX/XX/XXXX, and that I would need to choose new Chase products and conform to those terms and conditions. Since my investment manager decided not to stay at Chase, I closed my investment accounts, but kept all my banking accounts. 

Before XX/XX/XXXX, I went into a Chase branch to reconcile all my accounts. I closed XXXX accounts that were no longer needed and converted the remainder into XXXX XXXX accounts that required a minimum balance of {$75000.00}. I kept my end of the bargain, maintaining a balance of over $ XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX - the exact same date that FRB terms expired - Chase sent me letters informing me that " We periodically review existing accounts to ensure our products and services are appropriate for our clients ' goals and objectives. Sometimes, we determine that a client 's interests are no longer best-served through a relationship with J.P. Morgan XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). The deposit account above falls into this category and we must close it. '' They sent me this letter for every single account I have at the bank EXCEPT my main checking account. 

I called the bank, assuming it was a mistake and was told that it was not. I don't understand why they can close an account when THEY don't think it meets my needs but I am satisfied just fine and have met all the terms and conditions of the account type I hold. They will not give me any reason why they are closing my accounts, nor will they allow me to keep them open. They won't even give me more time to transfer all my banking relationships ( these aren't just my accounts, but also joint accounts with my children ) - the letter was dated XX/XX/XXXX and I only have 30 days, even though I didn't receive the letters until XX/XX/XXXX. Since I am on vacation the end of the month, I essentially have 15 days to find a new bank and get everything set up. 

I think this action is in retaliation for my closing my investment accounts. I want Chase to be stopped from unilaterally closing my accounts for no reason. Further, I have been told that my Chase Sapphire Reserve credit card may also be subject to some review, which I've had for many years and pay in full every month.

Complaint narrative:
" Method of Verification Dispute Notice : Remove these Fraudulent Accounts, Inquiries & Inaccurate Personal Information. 

The banking system is contingent upon equitable and accurate credit reporting, as stated in the equitable Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ). The banking system 's efficacy is directly impacted by inaccurate credit reports, and the public 's confidence is undermined by unfair credit reporting methods, which are essential for the system 's continued operation.

Therefore, the efficiency of the finance system is compromised whenever the FCRA is violated. This is a violation of my privacy with respect to my consumer report, as I have the authority to determine which items are included and which are not. Identity theft is the act of reporting any accounts without my written consent.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This results in civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n. The law permits a {$1000.00} fine per violation for each account listed without my expressed written assent. 

I reviewed my consumer reports and observed accounts that I had never granted anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have taken on a critical role and are obligated to report consumer information with the utmost accuracy, as the Fair Credit Reporting Act explicitly stipulates. I did not provide written consent to report them. I am expressing my dissatisfaction with the contents of the attached file.
