Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: PA

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 account listed without my expressed written consent.

Product: Credit card — Store credit card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I purchased a XXXX in the amount of {$120.00} on XXXX XXXX, XXXX order # XXXX online, the Macys credit card listed on the purchase ended in XXXX. I then purchased the same XXXX  in a different size in the amount of {$100.00} online on XXXX XXXX, XXXX order # XXXX paid through XXXX. 
I returned the XXXX to Macys XXXX XXXX in XXXX, NC along with two other items on XXXX XXXX, XXXX as shown on the receipt. At the time of return I recall the cashier say she made an attempt to return the purchase to credit card XXXX however she was unable to therefore she used my old charge card XXXX. 
Attached is my Macys XXXX statement showing the return of the XXXX  in the amount of {$120.00} and two other items in the amount of {$100.00} totaling {$230.00}. The charge reappears on my XXXX statement as a line item : XXXX XXXX, Macys.com purchase in the amount of {$120.00}. I am in dispute of this adjustment as previously stated and evidenced by the emailed receipt ; the online purchase date was made XXXX XXXX, XXXX not XX/XX/XXXX. 
After a long investigation I received a letter from Macys stating the refund was credited to card ending in XXXX however the receipt I received from the Macys XXXX XXXX in XXXX, NC says it was returned to charge card number XXXX. There is no question that the items were returned to the store, the discrepancy is in how the cashier made the return and where the return was credited to. 
The nearest Macys store to me closed in XXXX therefore all of my transactions have been through the Macys.com website using my original charge card number XXXX on my profile. 
The cards in question are XXXX ( my original card number ), XXXX ( new card received in XXXX ), XXXX and XXXX are both listed on my statements however I am not familiar with these numbers because I did not have a card. The complaint was investigated by the Fraud Investigation Department however, it seems this an issue pertaining to a discrepancy regarding how the transaction was handled. 
I am attaching my statements for XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, receipt for the return to the XXXX XXXX, and Macys response.

Complaint narrative:
i have expressed to target over and over that this account was run up by an ex. I made several attempts to get this individual to pay the debt but they refused. The card was used without my knowledge and by the time I found out it was too late. Like I said before if I was personally responsible for the charges I would have made arrangements to negotiate and pay it off. All I ask is that Target please understand that I was a victim of identity theft and at that young age, had no idea what to do. Now that Im older and understand clearly what happened I would like to fix this because it has been extremely harmful to my life and way of living. I have also noticed that its not just me having issues with Targets way of doing business. I need this account removed completely from my credit report. The original documents havent been verified or sent to me by law.
