Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
Recently, I noticed that I am starting to receive collection mails from banks. I called and asked what is going on, and I was told that there are several accounts opened last year with my information. I told them that I have never submitted any types of application to their companies. They asked my address, email address, phone number, social security number, date of birth, and name. Surprisingly, Some of cards mailed to my business addresses, and some of them were mailed to my home in the state of GA. However, I never received those cards before. I travel from state to state for my business, so I couldn't check my mailbox everyday. Maybe someone got access to my mailbox and took the card after they applied for it. But that does not mean that I am responsible for these cards ' payments and outstanding balances. I already informed what is happening, and I also submitted FTC report to XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. It has been about few months now, but I see no changes in my credit report. As a business owner, I was planning to expand my business in other state this year, but with current status of my credit report -- full of credit cards that I have never applied for -- I can't even get any commercial loan. I am not sure what my credit bureaus are doing, but although I submitted all documents they requested ( copy of my driver 's license, social security card, utility bill, and FTC report ), I see no efforts of my credit bureaus. Everything remains same, no updates, nothing. My most recent dispute case closed with the result of " these are correct information '' did not explain anything. I don't know what kind of document or verification document they received from credit card companies, but I never got a chance to look at it. I asked if they can send me a copy of what they have, but they rejected my request and said : unfortunately we can not provide you any documents from creditors due to privacy information. Well, they started dispute case because they were able to verify that I am the one who submitted these disputes. Then how come they can not provide me any proof for privacy issue? Representatives said that they sent out a mail explaining everything, but the result letter did not explain anything. I just saw a letter saying their investigation concluded as " they are all correct information. '' BUT HOW DO THEY EXPECT ME TO AGREE WITH INVESTIGATION RESULT WITHOUT ANY PROOF? I don't even know how identity thief obtained my information, what kind of information was submitted. I can't understand or agree with their process of investigation. As a result, they made me come to you ( CFPB ) and to ask for help with my current status. I never applied for any credit cards with these companies.

On XX/XX/year> I contacted XXXX about identity theft I experienced a while back and there was multiple things on my credit, I submitted the proof as well they immediately got to work on it and removing things. I contacted transunion and XXXX about removing the stuff as well and they didn't. They told me to dispute it, which I already did and they denied it. I informed them I understand they are all 3 different companies but when it comes to identity theft they are all supposed to remove the things inaccurate from identity theft. It's a big deal because these things are affecting my credit really bad.

Company: KBR INC DBA RASH CURTIS & ASSOCIATES
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX camera system for my home, which XXXX installed. After about four months, I noticed that the system wasn't working. I called XXXX, and they admitted the system hadn't been properly connected and that they could fix it right away. I asked for a refund for the four months I paid for service, and the XXXX staff agreed I should get it, but he didn't have the authority to issue it, so I needed to wait to be contacted by an XXXX manager. I waited. I never got the call or any correspondence. I contacted XXXX and told them that if they would not reimburse me for the four months I did not receive service, I'd stop paying for the system and that they could come out and remove it. They did not respond to this either. I stopped paying. 

XXXX sold this debt to Rash Curtis & Associates. I got a letter from Rash Curtis explaining that I now owe them the money for the camera system, which is currently {$1000.00}. I responded to Rash Curtis with a full explanation of what happened and requested that either they or XXXX come to remove the camera system and repair the damage to my house caused by the XXXX installer. They drilled multiple holes into the side of my house in four different locations. I also explained that since this camera system is wired into my home 's electrical system, it would be too dangerous for me to remove the system. I was worried about being electrocuted and/or my home catching on fire. XXXX insures my home, so it would be ironic if my house burned to the ground because of XXXX 's poor handling of this situation. 

I have contacted each company multiple times by phone and by mail ( I included copies of the last letter i sent ). I would be satisfied if XXXX XXXX XXXX or Rash Curtis & Associates sent a proper electrician to my home, remove the camera system, and repair all damage caused by the installation. Of course, I do not want any damage to my credit rating because this absolutely was not my fault, and I went beyond what the average person would do to try to resolve this situation. I called and sent XXXX XXXX XXXX and Rash Curtis & Associates multiple letters clearly explaining the problem and they completely ignored my request for resolution.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: MS

Complaint narrative:
My account with Bank of America was never late .I have had exceptional payment history with Bank of America and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 
I demand the late payment reported in XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to be removed They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 
15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

Bank of America Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 
This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 
Delete the late payments from my consumer reports
