Complaint narrative:
I sent a complaint through the CFPB after Chex Systems repeatedly denied me access to complete a dispute online through their website. After my dispute through the CFPB, Chex Systems replied that XXXX. Our records indicate that ChexSystems has not received communication directly from you regarding this dispute XXXX. ChexSystems has received the copy of the documentation you provided with your complaint. The document does not clearly support the claim of identity theft or fraud relative to information in the consumer file at ChexSystems for the following reason ( XXXX ) : The documentation you provided is not signed by a law enforcement XXXX. 

The fact is, these are both completely false/irrelevant reasons to try and deny my dispute. 
My FTC is a affidavit which meets the requirement stated under 605b 15 u.s.c. 1681c-2.

Here is the definition of an identity theft report : identity theft report ( 4 ) Identity theft report. The term identity theft report has the meaning given that term by rule of the Bureau, and means, at a minimum, a report ( A ) that alleges an identity theft ; ( B ) that is a copy of an official, valid report filed by a consumer with an appropriate Federal, State, or local law enforcement agency, including the United States XXXX XXXX XXXX, or such other government agency deemed appropriate by the XXXX ; and ( C ) the filing of which subjects the person filing the report to criminal penalties relating to the filing of false information if, in fact, the information in the report is false. 

Now, if ChexSystems continuously violates my rights and refuses to remove the requested items, items that are the result of IDENTITY THEFT, i WILL pursue litigation. Thank you.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Subject : Request for Reinvestigation and Removal of Charge-Off Account # XXXX To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to dispute the accuracy of a charge-off listed on my credit report under the account # XXXX. I have received a 1099-C form for this account, indicating that the debt was canceled. According to the Internal Revenue Code ( IRC ) 6050P, a 1099-C form is issued when a creditor cancels a debt of {$600.00} or more. This means the debt has been legally forgiven and should no longer be reported as a charge-off.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 611 ( a ), I have the right to dispute any information on my credit report that I believe is inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable. As the debt has been canceled and a 1099-C form has been issued, the reporting of this charge-off is both inaccurate and misleading.

I request that you conduct a reinvestigation of this matter under FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and remove the charge-off from my credit report. If the information can not be verified, it must be deleted from my credit file according to FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ).

Please provide me with written confirmation that this item has been corrected and removed. If you are unable to verify the accuracy of this information, it must be deleted from my credit report as required by law.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your response. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

I noticed my phone started acting weird around mid XXXX and I also noticed that a lot of attempted transactions were happening on my Cash app. I called Cash app. They reassure me that I was just being in their words delusional then money started coming missing him as soon as I file a dispute within minutes, it was denied. They told me that it looked like I paid that person before Ive never seen those names a day in my life transaction have an XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX for {$100.00}. It was Cash app to Cash app the second transaction happened XX/XX/year> for {$110.00} to a cash app called scam likely. The last one happened. XX/XX/XXXX to another cash app to cash app called XXXX  XXXX for {$100.00}. The weird thing about this one is it did to have my nickname in the notes, which is XXXX XXXXXXXX with a theory emoji at the end I brought it to cash app. I was also charged {$250.00} for a gas bill that was not in my name. I brought that to their attention. I showed them the bill. I showed them my ID and they still denied the dispute and closed my card. Cash app or really a bunch of bullies They disregarded me every time somebody ask a question they will give me the robotic reply. Well, if theres anything else that I can help you with besides this. And then immediately in the chat or just hang up in my face at a certain point, I decided to just give it up until I started doing some research and find out that I can file a complaint. There are so many more transactions unauthorized that happened with my Cash app I just did not have the energy to go back-and-forth with them knowing that Im gon na be disregarded.

Despite the multiple previous written requests, the unverified accounts listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditor documentation on file to verify that this information is 100 % true, accurate & correct.

In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigation ( s ), you stated in writing that you verified that these accounts are being reported correctly? Who verified these accounts? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, you have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). Please be advised that under Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to ... promptly CORRECT or DELETE all information which can not be verified.

Section 616 and Section 617 provide me with a remedy which Im about to seek. You are willful non-complying with the FCRA.

Since you claim youve verified the accounts listed below I wanted to confirm my thoughts and contacted the banks directly. They did not provide me with any verifiable proof. So, my question comes up again, WHO VERIFIED THIS ACCOUNT? I believe you have not verified these accounts based on Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & I will be seeking a legal remedy. 

Please DELETE the account, or inaccurate information, from my file immediately XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
Hi! How are you? I was looking through my report and noticed a vehicle that I returned to the dealership where it's reporting completely incorrect. I had the opportunity to talk to several lawmakers and friends, and learned some basic laws in regards to voluntary or repossession of a vehicle. Under the laws of MASS and UCC 9.506 as well as State XXXX and XXXX statutes, a deficiency can not be claimed unless all of the required notices were properly and timely given, and all of the allowable redemption and cure time limits were adhered to. I am writing to dispute the alleged debt mentioned reported by your company. This account is fraudulent, and I have never had any prior relationship or entered into any contract with either of these companies. 
The reporting of this account violates both the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). To resolve this, I am requesting the following documentation : 1. Proof of your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and ( f ) to collect this debt. 
2. The legal basis for collecting this debt. 
3. Proof of your authorization to operate in my state. 
4. Evidence of the alleged debt, including any contracts or agreements bearing my signature. 
5. A full account history, including all related charges.
