Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: Synovus Bank
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I have experienced ongoing issues with removing unknown accounts on my credit report. I have sent in multiple dispute letters and have yet to receive anything. I sent off an original dispute letter asking for them to send over certain documents that requested them to send my original contract with my signature attached. I never heard anything back. I then sent off a 30 Day Demand of Comply letter after waiting 45 days. To this day, I still have not received anything. Under FCRA, failure to validate the debt in 30 days demands an automatic deletion. Furthermore, the original signed contract has still yet to be sent to me. I demand deletion!!!!

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I contacted XXXX in, XX/XX/XXXX to resolve, 5 credit reporting disputes. There were two collections companies that generated these complaints three were generated by the same collections company the remaining two by another. They were all in reference to medical bills that had been reviewed and previously paid by the insurance carrier I had at the time. Each were referenced to coverage in years, XXXX and XXXX. 

I had contacted the companies to verify findings for payments known to be true. After two episodes of research XXXX agreed that the billing was in error and in, XX/XX/XXXX these disputed narratives were successfully removed from my credit report. 

In XXXX, XXXX I filed identical disputes relative to identical companies once again challenging the legality of credit reporting with, EQUIFAX. This collections company felt that there were no grounds to release these identical disputes from my credit report. By XX/XX/XXXX I had challenged the findings on three occasions only to be told that our decision is final and they have zero need to do follow-up with XXXX. 

As with so many households in the United States this, 24 plus month raging global pandemic phenomenon has hit my family especially hard. I have attempted to continue to pay my bills on time and keep my ratio of debt to expenditures to a minimum often times electing to go without necessities vs a surprise bill that could easily decimate my meager savings! Therefore It is essential that these unfounded burdensome narratives be removed from my credit summaries.

Issue: Getting a credit card — Application denied
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I the natural person am writing this complaint on behalf of myself and no other. Congress makes the following findings that an elaborate mechanism has been developed for investigating and evaluating the credit worthiness, credit standing, credit capacity, character, and general reputation of consumers. I recently applied for an increase on my navy federal cashrewards visa account and was denied. Navy federal then furnished an adverse action letter stating on the front that I have reached navy federal 's maximum unsecured credit limit. Which is false because my sister has $ XXXX limit. Adverse means ill will, opposed to, contrary interest. I the consumer have an unlimited open end credit plan. I know the truth when I enter into a credit app. Navy federal is acting adverse to administer myself credit to make them a creditor and extend myself my own credit. Navy Federal is acting with an ill will they are being hostile, deceitful, and fraudulent towards me. When I first applied for the card they pulled from XXXX. Why did they switch up? Why not ask me who I rather them pull from? They then went on to say that the credit reporting agency played no part in their decision. When I turn the adverse action letter over it than states my credit score and key factors that adversely affected my score all from XXXX. The reasons they have listed are serious delinquency, length of time accounts been established, too many accounts with balances, and lack of recent bank revolving information. to the illegally furnished information that XXXX is reporting without my consent I was denied. Navy federal denied me because of nonpublic information that they purchased from XXXX whom humiliated me and got denied. Where did XXXX get this information from they need to tell me who are the neighbors and family members they interview to get this information. Pursuant to 15 USC 1681d ( d ) ( 3 ) CERTAIN PUBLIC INFORMATION IS PROHIBITED. Pursuant to 15 USC 1681d ( d ) ( 4 ) consumer reporting agencies shall not prepare or furnish certain adverse information. No where in the FCRA does it state that you need a credit score to get an increase. Navy Federal and XXXX is now civilly liable for negligent noncompliance.
