Company: Western Mercantile Agency, Inc
State: OR

Complaint narrative:
Western Merchantile Served my wife At her work with a court summons for a debt. she agreed to garnishment. They followed up by falsely delivering the summons post the signed date to her other old places of employ for a set amount per fake attempt. After garnishments began they over garnished the final payment XXXX XXXX we immediately contacted them to inform them of the error. We were told we would receive the funds in one to two months, which was now almost 5 years ago. They now started harassing phone calls attempting to collect an almost 11 year old debt for less than they owe us. I have attempted to pay the Companies that the debts originated with that We did business with and they are not allowed to take the money. Which means the debt has been purchased by western mercantile, which they also deny. But if they don't own the debt, my original debtors would be able to take the money. They are a cancerous stain on our community and their business practices are in need of real scrutiny.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
My BOA XXXX XXXX  I have had for at least 15 years and the interest rate went from 15.74 % in XXXX of 2022 to over 19 % now. I have never been notified about the interest going up and I have tried to get BOA to lower the interest so I can get the bill under control. 
I have had to transfer money to other lower interest cards, but I can just transfer so much so I am stuck with this higher interest rate. My Interest rate was consistently 14-15 % from XX/XX/2022 back about 7-9 years. 
It is near to impossible to get out of debt when half your payment is going to interest. There are fees that they charged along the way here and there and I can not figure out why I was charged the fee. I have been a good customer and had good to great credit for many years. Pay on time. 

I also went from no fees for checking and savings to fees around the same time.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX we decided to apply for a second credit card. In that process we realized that our credit reports had been frozen. We tried to unfreeze them at all 3 credit reporting companies. We were successful, except for the Experian credit report. After researching and trying to obtain login information & password in order to reset, I discovered that my username had been obtained when I worked at XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX and there was a data breach. I retired from that company last XXXX. I have been trying since XX/XX/XXXX to get someone from Experian to assist me. I believe I just need the old username account deleted so that I am able to create a new account using my personal email, etc. We finally filed a complaint with the XXXX on XXXX because we could not get any help from Experian. Someone named XXXX left a voice mail later that day, but when we called her back ( many times ) she never answered the phone nor did she call us back in response to our messages we left. We received a response from our XXXX complaint that was incomplete, we responded to that reply and haven't heard anything since. Also sent an email to XXXX XXXX, the apparent CEO of Experian, on XXXX but have gotten no response. We have called 4-5 phone numbers multiple times since XXXX and was able to speak to a human being only once. He unfroze my account but had to escalate my case ( # XXXX ) as he was unable to determine what the problem with the username was. We have been working on this nearly daily for about 14 days and can not even find a person who is willing to respond or help us. It is ridiculous.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing this debt due to fraud. I was contacted by XXXX XXXX via phone and letter. I have also received numerous letters from your company wanting to settle a debt incurred that I have no knowledge of. The letter states that I owe XXXX to XXXX XXXX. However, I do not owe that debt. My information was stolen along with my wallet, which included my state issued identification card, my personal social security cards, along with personal bank cards and information on XX/XX/2021, I disputed this account previously with XXXX XXXX and the major credit bureaus upon noticing identity fraud had occurred. I also filed a police report, FTC report and Ive had to obtain personal identification due to this. 
If you believe that I am still responsible for this debt, please send me any documentation you have that proves that I owe it. Until then, please cease all communication with me and note on your records that I dispute any responsibility for this debt. 
I reviewed my ( XXXX, and TransUnion ) credit report recently and found the account listed above. I have no recollection of this transaction and I do not believe that it is mine and I consider this matter to be in dispute, due to identity theft and identity fraud. 
I have already disputed this account with your credit bureau. I need to collect all possible information on this account so that I can determine whether it is an error or a case of identity theft. 
I request that you send me all available information possible on this account, including a copy of the original signed contract or any other documents that would establish the nature of the transaction and when, how, and by whom it was conducted. 
If these details can not be verified and the account continues to appear on my credit reports, I shall be compelled to assert my legal rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 
I hope to receive a quick and satisfactory response, as I would like to resolve this situation. 
Thank you, XXXX XXXX I have attached supporting documents

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to bring to your attention an issue that I have been encountering with XXXX XXXX XXXX, Experian, XXXX, and XXXX. The essence of my complaint revolves around the false and inaccurate reporting of an unsecured loan attributed to me by XXXX XXXX XXXX, a " credit services organization ''. 

In documentation provided by XXXX XXXX XXXX they openly acknowledge, " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX DBA XXXX ( XXXX XXXX  ) acts as an intermediary between a Lending Partner ( the Lender ) and you in connection with Loans made by the Lender ... XXXX XXXX  does not make Loans or provide credit counseling or credit repair services. ''. Additionally, they confirm that they do not directly or indirectly extend credit to consumers, which is consistent with California Civil Code Section 1789.13 ( p ) It is therefore illogical and factually incorrect for them to report an unsecured loan on my credit report when they themselves concede that they do not provide loans. This information is not only materially false but also breaches the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 12 CFR 1022.41 ( a ), as it misrepresents the nature of my relationship with XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

Moreover, the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 USC 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), prohibits any person from providing information about a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe the information is inaccurate. Given the above assertions, it is clear that XXXX XXXX XXXX, Experian, XXXX, and XXXX, have violated this regulation by insisting on the validity of the unsecured loan. 

Despite my efforts to resolve the issue by disputing the inaccurate information Experian, XXXX, and XXXX insist that they have 'verified ' the information, an assertion that I challenge based on the legal definitions of " Verify '' and " Verification ''. As per XXXX 's XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, " VERIFICATION '' is defined as the " Confirmation of correctness, truth, or authenticity by affidavit, oath, or deposition '', and " VERIFY '' is to " confirm or substantiate by oath ''. It's clear that the verification process necessitates a formal oath or a similar legally-binding assertion, which I find doubtful in this context. 

And if for no other reason, the account should be deleted as a matter of privacy, which congress has stated is my right.
