Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 
Consumer Social Security Number : XXXX Consumer Date of Birth : XX/XX/1986 Contents of Complaint : This complaint is being filed with the CFPB to request, pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ), that you, Experian credit reporting agency , block the fraudulent information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud. This action should be taken within 4 business days of receiving this complaint. 

The fraudulent, inaccurate, and false information includes : 1. A personal credit card account opened at XXXX XXXX XXXX under the account number ( XXXX ). 

These accounts have led to several fraudulent hard inquiries and collections appearing on my consumer FICO credit report. I have attached a list of these hard inquiries, along with a copy of the consumer FICO credit report maintained by you, which highlights the fraudulent items mentioned above. 

I do not recognize these accounts, collections, or hard inquiries as reported. They were not opened, made, or initiated by me and are the result of identity theft and fraud. As proof, I have attached a copy of FTC Identity Theft Criminal Complaint # XXXX from the US Federal Trade Commission, confirming that all of the aforementioned accounts, collections, and hard inquiries are indeed the result of identity theft and fraud.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Ive contacted Bank of America XXXX times. In those XXXX  times, Ive spent over and hour plus on the phone trying to resolve an issue, where their website is not allowing me to set up auto pay which almost causes me to miss my payments. In those multiple attempts to do so, they always reset my profile and promise it would work, but that is not the case. Every time I call back its the same resolution offered, with the initial outcome being the same. My last phone call on XX/XX/XXXX, where I spoke to XXXX XXXX ( floor supervisor in Arizona was the worse. I almost felt like he was trying to upset me for no reason. All he was doing was making the situation worse and reading from a script to tell me how to set up auto pay. Even after the fact I mentioned this is my XXXX time, he showed no sympathy on the situation and gave no other resolution. I even advised to see if he can reach out to a team from their technical department and he was ignorant to the extent that I just hung up. Imagine trying to set up your auto pay in XXXX different attempts, but one of the biggest banks in the worlds have yet to help you resolve that issue. Its almost as they want you to miss your payment so that you can incur late fees. This needs to be overseen by corporate. Because as someone thats been with you guys since XXXX, this is a terrible way to express your gratitude. Any other bank my autopay is set up with ease. This is ridiculous and almost looks like youre hoping a customer misses their payments so you can collect on late fees. Please look into this.

Complaint narrative:
My account with TransUnion was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX  and 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 reported to be removed.

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.

TransUnion 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! 


Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: KY

Complaint narrative:
I had a secured credit card that I put a deposit down for in the amount of {$200.00}. I paid my balance in full almost every month. I started getting behind on my bills and did not want to get to far behind so I closed the account in XX/XX/year>. The company called wanting payment and I asked them to send me a final itemized bill. I never got that. It went to a collection agency and when they called I asked for the original signed contract and the final itemized bill. The only information they provided was copies of my monthly bills from when I was in good standing with them. I called them to tell them that isn't what I wanted and that my {$200.00} deposit has not been applied to the balance. The balance is {$260.00}. Once my deposit is applied the balance will only be {$65.00}. A couple weeks later I received a notice from a new collection agency. So, I went through all this again still not getting the information I requested and my deposit still has not been applied to the balance. Once again I now have a new collection agency holding this debt. I have disputed this on my credit report with all XXXX agencies and I can not get any resolution. As soon as my deposit is applied I will pay it and that's that. I don't know what else to do to get them to apply the money I originally sent them in order to get the card. I don't know what else to do.
