Complaint narrative:
Contacted all 3 major credit bureaus via telephone, mail and filed numerous complaints to have inaccuracies removed from credit due to reporting errors and violation of consumer laws ; instead of investigation and removal of item they refused to process sending an email stating that the request seems to be from a third party which is invaild. All my personal identification was attached to letters and in signature line it states " I PERSONALLY SIGNED THIS LETTER AND REQUEST THIS INVESTIGATION ''. Bureaus are aware laws were broken and that type of response is just to provide a reason as to not follow the laws.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally address an ongoing issue with the reporting of an account that I believe is inaccurately reflected on my credit report. After reviewing my recent credit report from your bureau, I have found that the account XXXX XXXX continues to report incorrect information, despite my prior attempts to rectify the situation. 

As outlined under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681, 1681s-2, and 1681c, I am requesting that you immediately take action to ensure the information regarding this account is fully corrected and that the updated and accurate details are reflected in my credit file.

Under 15 U.S.C. 1681, credit reporting agencies are required to maintain accurate and complete information. Furthermore, 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 places responsibility on furnishers of information ( including creditors and financial institutions ) to report accurate data to the credit bureaus. Lastly, 15 U.S.C. 1681c sets clear guidelines regarding how long negative information, such as charge-offs, should remain on a credit report, and mandates that any outdated or erroneous data be promptly removed. 

If the inaccurate information continues to be reported, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action against your organization for violating the FCRA, as it is essential that all information reported on my credit report be accurate and in compliance with federal law.

Complaint narrative:
" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S.
Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them.

It seems like my disputes are being overlooked and I feel taken advantage of. As per Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since the deadline has passed, I expect these accounts to be updated without delay. If not, I may have to take legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me.

Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late.

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXXXXXX XXXX account [ XXXX ]. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I opened my PayPal online account to make payment. I saw an offer on the left side of the screen and I tapped the offer to view it. I closed the window as I wasnt interested in the offer. Fast forward, I reviewed my account as I received notification that I was over the limit ( And yes, Im over the limit due to this monthly charge ). I was surprised to receive this message as I do not use PayPal credit card. To my surprise, Ive been charged {$120.00} monthly since XX/XX/XXXX. When I called Synchrony bank, I was told that I accepted the offer of Payment Security Debt Cancellation Program. This shocked me because I did no such thing. They admitted that by clicking to view the offer, I purchased the program. This is wrong. This is unfair. I canceled it on XX/XX/scrub>XXXX
