Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to report that I have been the victim of identity theft and fraud. My personal and financial life has been disrupted by inaccurate accounts, unauthorized inquiries, and false information that do not belong to me. Most concerning, one of the major credit bureaus ( XXXX  ) even reported my name and date of birth incorrectly, which is undeniable proof that my identity has been compromised. I have taken every step within my power to protect myself, including gathering and submitting supporting documents. I respectfully request that this matter be addressed with urgency, fairness, and without unnecessary delays or excuses. I did not cause this harm, and I should not continue to suffer because of the actions of identity thieves or reporting errors. My only goal is to have my true credit history restored, my identity respected, and these fraudulent accounts and inquiries permanently removed. I sincerely hope this matter can be resolved promptly and professionally, with no stalling, no unnecessary questioning, and no further burden placed on me as the victim

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing a {$4500.00} credit card charge ( Reference Number : XXXX ) for services from CXXXX XXXX XXXX a fraudulent merchant that misrepresented their services and is no longer in business. 

I originally filed this dispute in XX/XX/year>. A few days before the case was supposed to be finalized, Citibank closed the dispute, stating that I had withdrawn it. I did not withdraw my dispute, nor did I authorize any withdrawal. 

I contacted Citibank multiple times requesting the case be reopened. On XX/XX/year>, I submitted all supporting documentation again in PDF format as requested, including : My complaints filed with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), the XXXX XXXX Crime Complaint Center ( XXXX ), and the Pennsylvania Attorney Generals Office. 

Evidence of the merchants misrepresentation and closure. 

Despite my submission, Citibank has not responded or acknowledged receipt of my documents. This failure violates the Fair Credit Billing Act, which requires acknowledgment of a billing error notice within 30 days and resolution within XXXX billing cycles. 

I am requesting CFPB assistance to ensure that Citibank : Reinstates and escalates my dispute for proper investigation. 

Corrects any records showing I withdrew the dispute. 

Provides a written response confirming receipt of my supporting documentation. 

I am also requesting that Citibank issue a provisional credit of {$4500.00} to my account while the dispute is being properly investigated, in compliance with the Fair Credit Billing Act.

This is a significant amount of money, and Citibanks failure to respond has left me without recourse.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX I took out a cash advance on my Capitol One XXXX XXXX XXXX. A week later my credit line was decreased by 40 %. The credit line decrease directly impacted my credit score. There was no notification that the case advance would cause the credit line to decrease, or I would never have made the transaction. I followed the link in the notification email to " check availability '' for a credit line increase. That increase was denied. I contacted customer service to complain ( case number XXXX ). My primary complaint was that the decrease had affected my credit utilization and my credit rating, which has a direct impact on my financial status. I was told by three different representatives that there was nothing they could do and that it was a " banking '' decision. The cash advance was repaid ( with fees ) within 30 days, and still they could not restore my credit line and rectify the impact to my credit rating. This has never happened with any other line of credit. When I asked the representatives if they could give me a reason that I should keep the Capitol One Quick Silver Visa, they said they had no reason.

Complaint narrative:
Im writing because there is an account showing up on my credit report that is completely unfamiliar to me. I have no knowledge of this account, never opened it, never authorized it, and have no connection to it whatsoever. Simply put it does not belong to me. 

This appears to be a case of mixed or misreported credit data, and its not just frustrating its damaging. I work hard to maintain my credit, and having someone elses account falsely tied to my name is completely unacceptable. I want to be absolutely clear : this is not my debt, not my account, and not my responsibility.

Company: ACIMA CREDIT, LLC
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing in response to Acima Leasings reply to my complaint ( XXXX ). Their letter misrepresents my experience and relies on documents that I did not sign or agree to. I want to make the following points clear : 1 : Documents Not Signed by Me The agreement and supporting documents Acima submitted as evidence of my consent do not bear my signature. I never signed these electronically or otherwise. Any documents presented as signed by me are inaccurate and misleading. This is a serious issue of contract validity.

2. Lack of Proper Disclosure At no point during my transaction with City Furniture or Acima was the Early Purchase Option ( EPO ) explained to me. I was not told that missing a 90-day deadline would more than double the payoff amount. This information was never disclosed verbally or in writing at the time of the transaction.

3. No Access to Portal Information Acima claims I was consistently provided information through their customer portal. However, I did not have access to any clear or timely information about the 90-day payoff option, nor was I reminded of the deadline. Their assertion that this was made available is inaccurate.

4. Deceptive and Predatory Practices Acimas response attempts to shift responsibility to me for failing to understand terms that were never explained and never validly agreed to. Their practices appear predatory, and the use of unsigned or improperly executed documents to justify thousands of dollars in payments raises serious concerns.
