Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: OK

Complaint narrative:
The following accounts must be deleted as they were opened without my consent : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX - Opened XX/XX/2021 XXXXXXXX XXXX ACCOUNT # : XXXX - Opened XX/XX/2021 XXXX XXXX  ACCOUNT # : XXXX - Opened XX/XX/2021 I have further done more investigating to understand why these accounts are reporting on my credit report and per my findings, on XX/XX/2021, my personal information was leaked due to a data breach. ( See attached documents ) In this breach, I found that the following information was leaked, which are items needed in order to get approved or open an account fraudulently : SSN, Name, DOB, Phone number and address.

These accounts were opened in the same year of the breach and reflect no payments towards the accounts which is a usual sign of fraud.

I have attached the ID THEFT reports for all of them as well as the source of the date breach and what was included. That is enough evidence proving they are not mine.

They were opened without my physical signature.

They were opened in a state I do not reside in.

They were opened with an address I do not live at.

Resolution : delete these accounts because you are reporting fraudulent accounts on my credit report that are hurting my credit worthiness to be approved for lines of credit or buying a house.

Reinsertion of these accounts after removal will be documented and presented to an attorney for further review for legal action to be taken as a result of negligence and deformation of character against all parties involved.

Please comply with my request as failure to do so will result in legal action being taken.

Company: Maximus Federal Services, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I discovered that a consolidated student loan which was placed with Aidvantage and subsequently transferred to XXXX still appears on my transunion and XXXX credit reports as open and owed in full. I submitted a credit dispute to XXXX and XXXX, and spoke with aidvantage by phone asking that they update my account to reflect the fact that the balance was not owed to them and had instead been transferred to XXXX. I was told by advantage that they would do this and was sent a letter by email to that effect, however instead advantage verified that I still owe the full balance to the credit unions.

Issue: Other transaction problem — 
Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
I bought a receiver from XXXX using PayPal. My preferred payment method was set for PayPal Credit. PayPal tried to take money from my bank account instead. I did not have enough money in that account so I stopped Payment. PayPal then had a choice to make. They could use my PayPal Credit account, which had plenty of credit available on it for the receiver or they could use my regular PayPal account which had a balance of {$0.00}. In their wisdom, they chose the PayPal account with {$0.00}. They paid the merchant {$570.00}, which caused my account balance to plummet to - {$570.00}. Now they want me to pay them back. I originally asked them to use my credit account because I didn't have the cash to buy the receiver. I still don't have the cash and I don't know where PayPal thinks it's going to come from. I can't give what I don't have. I complained to the Ohio Attorney General. PayPal 's response was that my bank was my preferred method of payment ; and that I chose to use my bank account with under {$100.00} in it to pay for a receiver that cost over {$500.00}. I'm afraid that, unlike PayPal, I understand that I can't pay for something when I don't have the money unless I use credit. This response from PayPal was also the first time they said my bank account was my preferred payment method. I have been communicating with PayPal for over a month about this and not one other person has told me that. Those who chose to tell me said that my PayPal Credit account was what I had chosen as my preferred payment method. So PayPal 's response to the Attorney General included false information. I'm afraid that they will change their records at PayPal to match their lies and there will be nothing I can do about it. They have lost all of my trust.
