Complaint narrative:
Under the FCRA Law All information reported inaccurate does not suppose to be on a consumer report. I have disputed the Bankruptcies off of my report continuously to get it removed and reinserted with Equifax. They stated that ( Furnisher ) XXXX is reporting.

Reinsertion under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) means that a credit bureau has started to again report inaccurate information that was previously disputed by a consumer and removed or suppressed by a credit bureau XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX, and others from the consumers credit file. Reinsertion often happens when a disputed/deleted account trade line is sold by the original creditor to a debt collector. Though less common than when a deleted debt is reported to a credit bureau by a collection agency, unlawful reinsertion also happens when the original creditor falsely certifies the accuracy of a bogus debt. 





The furnisher of the information certifies that the disputed information is accurate ; and The credit bureau notifies you in writing within five business days of the fact that it has reinserted the previously disputed information. Equifax did not notify me of such.. In that written notice, the CRA must also provide you with contact information for the furnisher that certified the accuracy of the disputed information.

Complaint narrative:
" The banking system is contingent upon equitable and accurate credit reporting, as stated in the equitable Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ). The banking system 's efficacy is directly impacted by inaccurate credit reports, and the public 's confidence is undermined by unfair credit reporting methods, which are essential for the system 's continued operation. 

Therefore, the efficiency of the finance system is compromised whenever the FCRA is violated. This is a violation of my privacy with respect to my consumer report, as I have the authority to determine which items are included and which are not. Identity theft is the act of reporting any accounts without my written consent. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This results in civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n. The law permits a {$1000.00} fine per violation for each account listed without my expressed written assent. 

I reviewed my consumer reports and observed accounts that I had never granted anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have taken on a critical role and are obligated to report consumer information with the utmost accuracy, as the Fair Credit Reporting Act explicitly stipulates. I did not provide written consent to report them. I am expressing my dissatisfaction with the contents of the attached file. ''

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX of XXXX  my vehicle was totaled in an accident with XXXX as the auto insurance and PNC bank being the loan holder. 

In an attempt to pay off the loan XXXX sent a check to PNC ( see check scans for {$19000.00} ). PNC released the title to XXXX ( see link to car auction ) and marked the account as paid. 

A duplicate loan was created somehow, and my original loan was closed. This all happened without my knowledge. When XXXX attempted to send the corrected amount, it was rejected because they were stating that the account had been paid in full. 

This was a banking error. As of the end of XXXX I finally was able to get my insurance company to send yet another check. I believe this account is finally going to be closed. 

I have had to pay {$400.00} in interest and {$1600.00} in rent/deposit coverage due to my credit report being negative. I am unable to get any loans or open up any new accounts due to this error.
