I want to dispute these accounts because it was affecting my credit report, it was caused by Identity Theft. I did not make these charges. I am having problems with this unfair treatment. These accounts were taken care of with the original creditor and promised me to update it out of my report. Therefore, these accounts shouldn't be in my report. This is an error that you need to look into, so please do your investigation on this and remove or delete this account from my credit report.

Complaint narrative:
I have previously disputed Experian, Equifax and Transunion regarding multiple accounts that are inaccurate. As of today, I have not received any responses or proof that they are doing proper investigation with my dispute. They ignored my rights to obtain an accurate credit report. They are non-compliant with the FCRA. These erroneous reports are badly hurting my credibility. I'm certain that my rights as a consumer protected under the law have been violated by this inaccurate information.

Company: AMERIS BANCORP
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX XXXX, I lost my job and was approved for a temporary forbearance from XXXX through XXXX. I regained employment on XX/XX/XXXX and contacted Ameris Bank in early XXXX to resume payments and request a deferment. I was told by multiple representatives that I was approved for deferment and should resume regular payments, which I did starting in XXXX. 

Despite this, I never received written confirmation. I submitted XXXX complete loss mitigation packets ( XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ) requesting deferment or a 24-month repayment plan. I received no written response to either. Instead, I was offered a 12-month plan that would increase my monthly payment by $ XXXX amount that is not financially sustainable. 

Since XXXX, my payments have been misapplied to the forbearance period, causing my account to appear past due and triggering negative credit reporting. My credit score dropped over XXXX points between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I have made multiple attempts to resolve this, including contacting Ameris Bank leadership, emailing XXXX, and filing disputes with all three credit bureaus. 

I have not been able to speak with anyone who has authority to resolve the issue. Phone numbers lead to general lines with long wait times and representatives who lack knowledge of my case. Extension numbers listed in letters do not work. Communication is limited to generic mail and automated messages.

Resolution requested : Apply the forbearance balance ( XXXX ) to the back of the loan with no change to terms, interest rate, or monthly payment Remove any misapplied late fees Correct credit reporting to reflect the loan as current

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL

Complaint narrative:
Synchrony, for no reason and despite improving metrics, credit score and debt, and despite them giving me a credit increase two weeks ago on one of the cards, immediately and without notice, closed all open lines of credit with them. This was done in an arbitrary and discriminatory way with prejudicial effect.

I have had zero lately payments, my balances have been consistently decreasing and there is zero risk to them that I would ntk continue. My credit score had been constantly improving and the closure of these lines will adversely affect my score. This decision was made on a discriminatory basis.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am updating a late payment that is currently being reported on my credit report as " open '' or unresolved. This entry is inaccurate and misleading. I have either already resolved the payment, or I was never late as claimed. The continued reporting of this item as open and delinquent is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which requires consumer reporting agencies to maintain maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. This misreporting has negatively impacted my credit score and may hinder my ability to obtain credit or employment. I am requesting an immediate investigation into this matter, as well as a correction or deletion of the inaccurate late payment record if it can not be verified.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, GA XXXX XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX SSN ( Last 4 ) : XXXX  Phone : ( XXXX ) XXXX Date : XX/XX/XXXX To : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX send to each bureau separately ] [ Insert bureau mailing address ] Subject : LEGALLY BINDING DISPUTE FINAL 15-DAY NOTICE Account in Violation : Westlake Financial Services XXXX XXXX XXXX ) To Whom It May Concern, This letter serves as a final 15-day legally binding notice and formal dispute of the Westlake Financial Services account XXXX XXXX XXXX ) being reported as a repossession and charge-off with a balance of {$10000.00} and a charged-off amount of {$18000.00}. 

A previous dispute was submitted over 30 days ago, and your failure to correct or validate the reporting places both the furnisher and your bureau in direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA 611 ).

Violations Justifying Immediate Deletion : 1. FCRA 611 ( a ) Failure to Respond to Prior Dispute : No validation or documentation has been provided in response to my original dispute submitted more than 30 days ago. This requires immediate deletion of the account.

2. IRS Violation No 1099-C Issued : Westlake charged off {$18000.00}, yet I have never received a Form 1099-C as required by IRS law when canceling over {$600.00} in debt. Reporting a balance while failing to issue a 1099-C raises major legal concerns.

3. UCC Violations 9-611 & 9-614 : I was never sent a Notice of Intent to Sell or Deficiency Letter after the repossession. Without these legally required notices, Westlake forfeits their right to collect or report a deficiency balance.

4. FCRA 607 ( b ) Inaccurate and Misleading Reporting : The original loan was {$16000.00}, yet Westlake is reporting an {$18000.00} charge-off and a {$10000.00} remaining balance. This is mathematically impossible, legally misleading, and constitutes inaccurate reporting. 



I am demanding the following : Immediate and permanent deletion of this account from my credit file Removal from all three credit bureaus due to unverified and unlawful reporting Written confirmation within 15 calendar days of receipt of this letter If this is not resolved by that deadline, I will escalate to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), IRS, and pursue legal remedies under FCRA XXXX for willful noncompliance and damages. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
