Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Contents of Complaint : This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you, the XXXX credit reporting agency , block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint. This fraudulent, inaccurate, and false information consists of a personal credit card account. 

These accounts have resulted in several fraudulent hard inquiries and fraudulent collections appearing on my consumer FICO credit report. I've attached a list of the hard inquiries in question as well as a copy of the consumer FICO credit report maintained by you which shows the aforementioned fraudulent items. I do not recognize the aforementioned accounts, collections, or hard inquiries as reported. The aforementioned accounts, collections, and hard inquiries appearing on my consumer credit report maintained by you were not opened, made, or initiated by me. All of the aforementioned accounts, collections, and hard inquiries are the result of identity theft and fraud.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I transferred $ XXXX from my primary bank account at a local credit union to a new High Yields savings account with American Express. On XX/XX/XXXX I used the American Express account to payoff a significant portion of my mortgage with XXXX XXXX  for the amount of $ XXXX. This seems to have triggered a fraud alert with American Express. Because a week or so later when I checked my American Express account it showed that I wasnt allowed to move money in or out of that account. I discovered this on XX/XX/XXXX and called American Express immediately. They are me to call during regular office hours on the XXXX. I did that. At that point I was told that I would need to get on a XXXX way call with my primary bank so that American Express can ask my primary bank to verify that I have an account with them. When we got on the XXXX way call, my primary bank- in order to verify my identity- had to ask me my security questions. American Express, listening into this call, would then know the security questions for my primary bank account as well as the answers. This would of course compromise the security on my primary bank account. So I chose not to do that. American Express told me that there was a second option, which was to send them a bank statement from my primary bank account. I did that. A week later my American Express bank account was still frozen. When I called them again on XX/XX/XXXX, they told me that the bank statement was rejected by their fraud team, for reasons they could not disclose. So my only option was to do the XXXX way call with my primary bank.

Company: REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I used XXXX XXXX in order to have the construction of my pool financed, this loan was later assigned to XXXX. I signed a XXXX year fixed interest installment loan, however XXXX chooses to report this loan in a manner that all credit bureaus list it on my credit file as a revolving line of credit, by falling under revolving credit instead of installment loan, it makes it look like I'm always over the limit in one of my revolving lines making my XXXX XXXX drop by as much as XXXX points. Enerbank is now part of Regions Bank so once there was no way to contact XXXX, I had to find my way to contact Regions Bank. I have personally called Regions Bank and asked them to report this account under its correct category, they claim that this is just the way the report things and that there is nothing that can be done, I also filed a dispute will all XXXX credit bureaus, but they also sided with Regions. It almost seems that Regions makes this on purpose in order to force people to speed up their loan repayment, and in the process makes it impossible for me to be approved for any type of loans.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, Citibank alerted me to a potentially fraudulent transaction on one of my credit cards. This transaction was for tickets to a XXXX XXXX in XXXX, and I confirmed that neither I nor any users of my card authorized this purchase. At the same time they alerted me to 4 other suspicious transactions, all involving tickets to concerts or shows, in various cities ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX ). I told Citibank that none of these charges was authorized and they removed them from my account. 

A few weeks later, I received a letter from Citibank indication that two of the merchants ( XXXX in XXXX and XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX disputed the charge back, and said the transactions appeared valid to them, and the tickets had been used. Citibank gave me the opportunity to affirm in writing that these transactions were fraudulent, which I did. I pointed out that the email addresses to which the digital tickets were sent were unknown to me, and were different email addresses used at each of these merchants. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, Citibank wrote to me to say that they agree with the merchant that there was no fraud, and I was responsible for the two charges, totaling {$1000.00}, and that their investigation was closed. 

Citibank refuses to hear more evidence and is requiring me to pay these charges or they will report it to the credit bureaus. 

To me the evidence is clear : there were a series of transactions using my card number ( but no physical card or chip was presented ) in different cities around the world for concerts and shows. They agree that 4 charges of these were fraud, but somehow insist that another 2 were valid simply because the merchant says so. Moreover, Citibank alerted me to the fraud in the first place.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations. 

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.
