Complaint narrative:
Demand for Immediate Deletion of Inaccurate Account Account Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX. 
Account Number : XXXX I am demanding the immediate deletion of the above-referenced account from my credit file due to multiple reporting discrepancies that violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA 15 U.S.C XXXX ). The information reported by Equifax, TransUnion, and Experian is inconsistent, inaccurate, and unverifiable, making this account invalid under FCRA XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ) ( A ). 

Discrepancies Between Equifax, TransUnion, and Experian Reports : XXXX. Different Account Types : Equifax : Line of Credit TransUnion : Overdraft / Reserve Checking Account Experian : Line of Credit XXXX. Different Balance Updates : Equifax : XX/XX/XXXX TransUnion : XX/XX/XXXX Experian : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX. Different Statuses and Charge-Off Amounts : Equifax : Charge-Off ( No Amount Listed ) TransUnion : Charged Off as Bad Debt ( Profit and Loss Write-Off ) Experian : Charge-Off with {$74.00} Written Off and {$74.00} Past Due as of XX/XX/XXXX XXXX. Different Past Due Amounts : Equifax : {$0.00} Past Due TransUnion : {$0.00} Past Due Experian : {$74.00} Past Due XXXX. Payment History Reporting Issues : Equifax : Reports exceptional payment history with no missed payments but still lists the account as a charge-off, which is a contradiction. 
TransUnion : No payment history displayed at all. 
Experian : XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX  days late, which conflicts with Equifax and TransUnions reporting. 
XXXX. Status Update Date Manipulation : Equifax : XX/XX/XXXX TransUnion : XX/XX/XXXX Experian : XX/XX/XXXX This re-aging of the account violates FCRA XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ) and FCRA XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ) ( A ), as charged-off accounts can not be updated to extend their reporting period. 

These discrepancies violate FCRA XXXX ( b ), which requires only accurate and verifiable information to be reported. Since the bureaus can not even agree on the basic details of this account, the information is clearly unreliable and must be deleted immediately under FCRA XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ) ( A ). 

I am not requesting an investigationI am demanding immediate deletion of this account from my credit report. If this request is not honored, I will escalate my complaint to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and potentially pursue legal action for noncompliance with the FCRA. 

Failure to comply with federal reporting laws may result in legal action against the credit bureaus and the data furnisher for willful noncompliance under FCRA XXXX, entitling me to statutory damages, actual damages, and attorney fees. 
Please provide written confirmation of deletion within XXXX days, as required by law.

Complaint narrative:
I submitted a complaint to the credit bureaus over a month ago, yet the incorrect information on my report remains unchanged. I have not received any updates from the bureaus, aside from your notification indicating that the company has addressed my complaint. How can I be assured that they have thoroughly investigated the inaccuracies? What verification methods were utilized to assess the accounts? This situation is extremely frustrating. More than 30 days have passed since my complaint, and the disputed accounts are still not updated. If this persists, I will be compelled to pursue legal action due to the significant stress it has caused me. Additionally, I am worried about the security of my personal information, especially in light of the data breach involving Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion.

Complaint narrative:
During XXXX, XXXX XXXX mortgage asked if we were affected by XXXX. My wife and I both were. They authorized us to stop making payments on our mortgage because they were going to come up with other payment options. After the forbearance was over, I tried to continue to make monthly payments, and they said it would affect the new payment plan. They said I have to wait for the XXXX to refinance this loan. They told me not to worry about this ; it was a XXXX loan, and all of this was normal. In the meantime, they reported to creditors as being XXXX months late. They eventually sent paperwork with my new terms. My original mortgage interest was 3.2 %, and now they refinanced it to 6.6 %. They also made it impossible to talk to someone on the phone. They claimed that they were too busy HELPING other customers. They had an option to call you back within XXXX hrs. I tried this XXXX  of times with no callback. This company clearly took advantage of us during a life-and-death situation. I have also tried to call them to get documentation for this and the automated line says to call back during business hours. This message plays all day so a customer cant speak to them.
