Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Complaint narrative:
I had ordered a XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX using my Citibank credit card with Best Buy on XX/XX/year> for {$530.00}. The order was then processed and shipped to my home, but it was never delivered even though it was sent to the correct address. Best Buy used a third party shipping service ( XXXX ) that has repeatedly in the past been reported for issues of nondeliveries as well as thefts. 

I made a call to their support team on XX/XX/XXXX so that I could get a replacement device to be picked up in-store this time, but the order was never fulfilled. I tried canceling the order online on XX/XX/XXXX, after which no refund was processed. 

I submitted a charge dispute with BestBuy/CitiBank XXXX XX/XX/XXXX including evidence that there was no authenticate attempt to make the delivery to the right address.

Complaint narrative:
The listed entries remain unverified and appear inaccurate. Despite numerous efforts to have these discrepancies properly addressed, no substantial action has been taken. I have submitted all necessary documentation and followed up multiple times, yet the errors continue to appear. This ongoing inaction has resulted in financial difficulties and has negatively impacted my overall well-being. The mental and emotional strain caused by these unresolved issues has been considerable. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the right to an accurate and fair credit report, which includes the removal of any incorrect or unverified information. I strongly urge you to take prompt action to investigate and correct these items, as continued failure to do so may constitute a violation of my rights under federal law.

Company: Servicer under contract with Federal Student Aid
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Formal Dispute of Student Loan Reporting & Alleged Unauthorized Disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information ( PII ) I am writing to formally dispute the reporting of one or more student loan tradelines currently attributed to me and serviced by XXXX. I am also raising a concern regarding the potential unauthorized disclosure of my personally identifiable information ( PII ), in violation of both the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ( FERPA ). 1. Dispute of Credit Reporting under FCRA Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681i and 1681s-2 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I dispute the accuracy and legality of the student loan tradeline ( s ) reported by XXXX and/or any associated credit reporting agency . Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i, consumer reporting agencies are required to reinvestigate disputed information within 30 days of notice. Under 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ), furnishers like XXXX must ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. I specifically dispute the legal and factual basis used to associate this tradeline with my credit file. I also question the necessity and accuracy of using personal identifierssuch as my Social Security number ( SSN ) and date of birthfor this purpose. Unless you can provide complete documentation verifying both the debt and your legal authority to report it, I request that the tradeline be removed from my credit profile immediately. 2. Alleged Unauthorized Disclosure under FERPA FERPA ( 20 U.S.C. 1232g ; 34 CFR 99.31 ) prohibits the disclosure of education records or personally identifiable information without the student 's consent, except under specific, limited circumstances. I am concerned that XXXX may have disclosed my SSN and other PII to consumer reporting agencies in a manner that exceeds what is permitted under FERPA. Specifically : Reporting to private credit bureaus is not an inherent requirement of administering Title IV federal student aid. No valid consent was knowingly provided to authorize the release of this information to third parties beyond what is required by law. Therefore, I am requesting evidence of any consent forms, disclosures, or legal authority that justify such reporting. This letter constitutes a formal dispute under FCRA 611, 623 and a formal records request under FERPA
