Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have submitted a dispute in regards to this issue one before and have gotten a response that everything has been cleared under my name. I have previously advised your office that I have not open or obtained an account, nonetheless, a credit with COMENITY BANK or any of the affiliates. I have confirmed and advised COMMENITY BANK that I have not requested a credit card and that the address that the card was used to be open, is and was not my address of residency. I am not sure as to why and how this was done under my name and how COMMENITY BANK approved a credit under my name, without doing any further review and confirmation. Given the fact that COMMENITY BANK has the right to investigate and obtain all necessary information prior to approving any credits, COMMENITY BANK has failed to uphold that duty and has caused my information to be used in a scam. Furthermore, COMMENITY BANK must have gotten signatures along with other identifying information prior to opening an account under my name and failed to do so under the law and regulation of California along with the Federal laws that COMMENITY BANK must comply with prior to approving any credit card/lines to anyone. Pursuant to COMMENITY BANK 's online advertisement, COMMENITY BANK encourages people to use their online system to apply for a credit card and states that its the " quickest '' way to get approved. I did not get a card for approval nor did I get anything in the mail from COMMENITY BANK stating that my information was used or attempted to be used in order to open an account. Thus, COMMENITY BANK has failed its duty, under California consumer laws and regulations by properly requesting necessary information and documentation to approve a card under my name. Moreover, COMMENITY BANK violated federal laws when it approved a card under my name to someone else and is exposed to selling and/or buying my information under different affiliates, exposing them to a lawsuit under California 's due diligence acts and approval under misrepresented information and/or documentations. With that said, I am requesting for COMMENITY BANK to immediately withdraw the charge off from my credit as I have previously stated that I did not own to account nor made any used of it.

Complaint narrative:
I am the victim of identity theft and filed a police report in XX/XX/XXXX, which includes the name of the responsible partya car dealership that fraudulently used my information. I submitted the identity theft report and police report to all three credit bureaus. Despite this, they continue to report two fraudulent accounts opened in my name with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : Credit Card Account ending in XXXX : Opened on XX/XX/XXXX, this account was charged off for {$19000.00} and later sold to RSG. The credit limit was {$16000.00}, yet the balance went above that, clearly showing fraudulent activity. The last payment posted was XX/XX/XXXX, and the account was closed and charged off in XX/XX/XXXX. It shows six negative months and remains on my credit report despite multiple disputes.

Auto Loan Account ending in XXXX : Opened on XX/XX/XXXX, with an original balance of {$19000.00}. This account shows four late payments ( 30 to 120 days past due ) before being paid and closed in XX/XX/XXXX. I never authorized this auto loan, and it was also opened without my consent. 

I have made multiple attempts to dispute these accounts with Equifax, XXXX XXXX XXXX, submitting proper documentation under FCRA Section 605B, and have been ignored each time. These accounts were not opened by me, and I had no knowledge of them until reviewing my credit reports.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I'm writing to dispute inaccurate late payment notations being reported on my credit file for an account that, to my knowledge and records, has been paid as agreed and never late.

I want to be very clear here : I am requesting validation of these reported late payments, because as someone who monitors their credit closely and makes every effort to pay on time, this came as a complete surprise. If youre going to report something as serious and damaging as a late payment, it better be backed by clear, verifiable, and accurate documentation not vague data or automated reporting errors.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), you are required to report information that is 100 % accurate, complete, and not misleading. Reporting a consumer as late when they have not been late is defamatory, unfairly lowers credit scores, and can create real harm from higher interest rates to declined applications. I am not going to tolerate that on my record, especially when its inaccurate.
