Complaint narrative:
Accounts on my consumer report have been linked to identity theft, and I never provided written authorization, including a wet signature, for their inclusion. I recently communicated with your organization about this matter, and I am formally requesting the prompt blocking and removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence has caused significant emotional and financial distress, as they inaccurately represent my credit history and responsibilities. If this issue is not appropriately addressed, I am prepared to take legal action to protect my rights and seek resolution. These fraudulent items on my credit record have hindered my ability to achieve important financial goals, such as purchasing a home and meeting the needs of my family.

Complaint narrative:
Your choices don't really fit my needs. 2 months ago I tried to access Equifax Lock & Alert but it wouldn't let me reset my password on either the app or the online entry. I called multiple times to number coming up XXXX and XXXX, no rep was able to help me get access to my account, they had me change my password over and over again. Finally a ticket for tech was put in for me. In the past ten days I had only one call from a number I couldn't identify which I couldn't call back and was left no message. I deleted that number in error so I can't tell you what it was. I missed the call as I was in the bathroom. I can't be sure it was Equifax but I can't call the customer service again. I need to speak to a tech person, I need to be able to reach someone preferably because I work part-time in the morning but I want my access to Equifax back XXXX I know I can give all my details over the phone and my account can be locked or unlocked but I want this back for myself to do online. I know they still have an older email of mine on file which may be causing part of this problem but I someone who can really help me and stop going around in a circle. This is very unfair to be unable to resolve such a simple problem. Please help me reach someone to give me online access back. I liked Lock & Alert, up to recently it always worked fine. I changed phones and the app didn't transfer over to my new phone, when I downloaded the app and tried to activate it, that's when my problems started. HELP!!!

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I pulled my credit report XX/XX/XXXX. I noticed an array of mistakes with XXXX, and Experian. I began disputing accounts. Some were corrected or rightfully deleted. But there are still accounts that are not being reported properly. XXXX XXXX was never included in a bankruptcy, ever. But it is being reported on my credit report as it was. That auto loan was paid in full when I traded it in for a different vehicle in XXXX. I never missed a car payment in my life. I contact XXXX XXXX  who referred me back to XXXX and Experian to resolve. When I called XXXX and Experian  they referred me back to XXXX. For four months Ive been trying to get this fixed, and they arent reporting correctly, which impacts my score in a negative way. XXXX XXXX  was also never included in a bankruptcy. Those accounts were paid off. Both XXXX and Experian  are reporting it negatively, an account from XXXX that was never included on a bankruptcy. I contacted mariner finance who confirmed it was never in a bankruptcy and I was referred back to Experian and XXXX, who again failed to resolve the issue. These are just two of many examples of errors XXXX and Experian have made which my credit file. I want my credit file to be accurate and that is my right. I have requested validation of debt which I never received from Experian or XXXX.

EdFinancial provided a loan transfer information to a new portal in XXXX that it will be completed after 2 weeks. After 2 weeks, they sent another email that the transfer has been delayed.

Interest will accrue on XX/XX/XXXX so if they are making us pay the interest during the time I can not make the account, this is a very unfair/unlawful practice.

Relying on multiple misrepresentions, Citi denied my chargeback claim.

Company: M&T BANK CORPORATION
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I'm XXXX and retired on XXXX. I've been having trouble with M & T bank for some time now. I will try to make this as short as possible. 1. A few years ago I had to file bankruptcy for my account with M & T. 2. Last year the bankruptcy was done. 3. M & T filed a sheriff sale on me. The amount they wanted me to pay to stop the sheriff sale and have my loan modified was the amount paid to them from the bankruptcy. 4. I received a phone call from a man identifying he was with M & T. He knew my account details and told me how much to send M & T to do the modification. 5. I sent the payments to the address, person, and made payable to M & T. 6. I made these payments for about 6 months and I then had a paper stuck on my mailbox from a realtor saying my home was in foreclosure. 7. I called M & T customer service in New York. After being on hold for quite some time the woman came back and told me I was going to be evicted because I didn't respond to the sheriff sale notification. I explained everything and she said there was nothing I could do. 8. I contacted the XXXX XXXX  XXXX and the referred me to XXXX XXXX XXXX and was assigned an attorney. 9. M & T denied any monies were ever paid to them from me or the bankruptcy. 10. I sent them copies of all my documents and money orders. My attorney also gave them copies. 11. The other day the sheriff served me with ejection papers, I contacted my attorney and he said that M & T has no intention of working with me. I asked to buy my home from them for what was owed on it but they don't want to work with me and my attorney said I might not have any options. 12. There has got to be something I can do to keep my home that my Dad built in the late 1950 's. Well that's basically my situation in a nutshell. I feel that M & T has been harassing me and lying to me for years. I'm not sure if that would fall under elderly abuse of any kind or not but I am emotionally and mentally fatigued and my health is going down hill over the worrying I'm under over this. I hope you can give me some advice or help so I can keep my home. Thank you and God bless, XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Pa. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX [ XXXX : XXXX ] XXXX
