Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute a late payment entry that has appeared on my credit report. The report indicates a late payment in my credit report, which I strongly believe is erroneous and not verified. Throughout my financial history with the financial agencies I am doing business with, I have consistently met all payment deadlines without fail. Therefore, the presence of this late payment is undoubtedly a result of a billing error on the part of the creditor. I request a thorough investigation into this matter to verify the accuracy of the reported late payment and urge for its prompt correction. It is imperative that such inaccuracies are rectified swiftly, as they impact my financial standing and credibility. I have contacted the financial agencies in the last more than 30 days to seek clarification but I got no response because this is erroneously reported for they have provided NO PROOF that there was a REAL late payment. Your immediate attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.

Complaint narrative:
I am disappointed to have received a credit report that contains inaccurate information about me. As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act, it is my right to dispute any information that I believe to be incorrect. I take this matter very seriously and I am deeply concerned that these false allegations of delinquency and derogatory information could harm my reputation and financial well-being. 

Although I am fighting back with all my strength, I need your cooperation to resolve this issue. I kindly request you to provide evidence that justifies why my accounts are considered to be in a negative state. It is my understanding that any data included in my file must be documented and validated before it can be used by creditors, as mandated by the law. However, it appears that your records are not meeting these standards. 

I feel let down that you are not doing your job properly, and I am concerned about the potential consequences that this could have on my creditworthiness. Therefore, I am giving you 30 days from now to address this matter and provide me with physical proof of your actions and my updated credit report. 

I hope that everything can be resolved in a timely manner without the need for intervention or escalation. Please provide accurate and verified information for each claim, as the allegations against me are not true.

But somehow, this fraudulent account is still existing in my report under your bureau and I'm curious what kind of confirmation process have you done. XXXX and XXXX credit bureaus no longer reporting this fraudulent account since the submission of the required documents. 
Please dispute this account. This was opened with out my knowlege, authority or consent.

Complaint narrative:
Violation of Consumer Rights under 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2 I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a matter of significant concern regarding the reporting of an account on my credit report that has been formally reported as an incident of identity theft. As a consumer, I believe that my rights, as outlined in 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2, are being violated, and I am seeking your prompt assistance in resolving this matter. 
Details of the affected account : Account attached below I have previously submitted a detailed report of identity theft, along with supporting documentation, to Equifax. Despite this, I have observed that the information related to the fraudulent account is still being reported on my credit file. 
Section 1681c-2 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act explicitly outlines the rights of consumers in cases of identity theft, emphasizing the obligation of credit reporting agencies to block the reporting of information resulting from identity theft. It is my understanding that credit reporting agencies are required to promptly block the reporting of inaccurate information resulting from identity theft. 
I am deeply concerned that the continued reporting of this fraudulent account is not only damaging my credit standing but also infringing upon my rights as a consumer. I am seeking immediate action to rectify this situation and bring my credit report into compliance with the provisions of the law. 
I kindly request that Equifax conduct a thorough investigation into this matter and take immediate steps to block the reporting of the fraudulent account on my credit report. 
I trust that Equifax will prioritize this matter and work diligently to rectify the violation of my consumer rights. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this serious issue.

Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach.
