Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
As previously complained of in CFPB complaint # XXXX closed XX/XX/XXXX, as well as CFPB complaint # XXXX, closed XX/XX/XXXX- American Express BlueBird XXXX has again closed my account this day XX/XX/XXXX, allegedly under BMA section 22D again. This pattern of BlueBird arbitrary closing my account has not been explained except for the phrase : " feedback has been provided to the appropriate parties regarding this matter '', but yet this behavior continues to happen about every thirty 30 days. Being a service-connected XXXX & otherwise homeless U.S. Veteran, I must have confidence in the ability to access the little funds I do have. If I am violating the BMA, I should be told with specification on how and when this occurs. If BlueBird simply does not want me to have an account, they should tell me so that I can make other arrangements for prepaid services ; rather than leaving the impression... " the appropriate parties '' have been provided feedback regarding this " re-peated matter ''. In view of my pervious CFPB complaints, it seems that I am being personally targetted with this " account-closing harassment, '' for unspecified reasons.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
I submitted an inquiry with Equifax on XX/XX/2018. Case # XXXX. 

The inquiry was regarding a recent, sudden drop in my credit score reported by Equifax. This erroneous drop was alarming especially since my credit scores from XXXX and XXXX  had gone up a few points. My credit score reported by Equifax made a sudden drop of 39 points from XXXX to XXXX. I monitor my credit scores closely and this sudden drop prompted me to carefully review my credit report for potential fraud or changes. No information on my credit report had changed. No factors including how much money I owe, how long I've owed it, no new accounts, no recently closed accounts, no change in the number of accounts, no changed in payments, late payments, or missed payments, no recent hard inquires, no changes in types of credit accounts, no changes in derogatory remarks. My credit report had not changed at all since Equifax had reported my score prior to XX/XX/XXXX. 

In my inquiry, I asked them to investigate why there was a sudden, erroneous drop in my credit score. Equifax made no attempt to investigate. Instead I received a stock response email followed immediately by another email closing my case. Per that email, Equifax stated : " If this issue is not resolved to your satisfaction, you may reopen it within the next 5 days by responding to this email. '' I responded to the email the same day asking for them to investigate my account and my case. I was immediately sent sent another email closing my case. Again, Equifax state in the email : If this issue is not resolved to your satisfaction, you may reopen it within the next 5 days by responding to this email. ". I emailed them yet again asking for them to investigate. I have yet to receive a response. It has been 16 days from my last correspondence. 

Equifax made no attempt to investigate my inquiry.

Company: Phoenix Financial Services LLC

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I was taking care of some personal business at my credit union and I had a few missed calls. One on the calls had said " Debt Collector '' with no phone number listed. Out of curiosity I pushed the button on my XXXX and there was a lady that answer the phone. When she answered she said is this XXXX XXXX and I said no, this is XXXX XXXX. She stated that she was calling to collect a debt and I told her I don't owe anyone so you have you can't be referring to me I pay my bills. 

She then said, " You owe XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX {$230.00} and I wan na know what you want to do with this bill ''. I told her I have not been to XXXX XXXX XXXX. She said we have had this bill since XX/XX/XXXXand I wan na know how you want to pay it. I said, XX/XX/XXXX are you kidding me, first of all I need you to send me a copy of this bill so I can see what it is I am supposed to be paying for. She said we already mailed you a copy twice. I stated I have not received any bills from XXXX XXXX XXXX. She then got nasty stating, " You have a good day '' and hung up the phone. 

I then called back to get information regarding who this company was and she hung up the phone. I then called back about 5 minutes later to find out who this company was and a male person answered the phone and when I told him what happened he hung up on me as well. Neither of them EVER stated the name of the business nor were they professional in ANY way... answering the phone with a simple " Hello ''. I was unable to find the name of the company even through a XXXX search. 

However, on XX/XX/XXXX I received an email from XX/XX/XXXX that there had been a change to my credit report and they suggested I log in to view the change. Then on XX/XX/XXXX I received an additional alert from Experian and XXXX XXXX as well. I logged in on today XX/XX/XXXX because I received an alert email from XXXX as well. When I logged in I notice that there has been a collection account added to my credit report by XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, IN for {$230.00} and there is an N/A under the business type. I want this information removed from my credit report immediately and this inquiry conducted in a business matter by sending me a bill so that I can either confirm or deny that this is my bill and get the chance to dispute it as I requested, Whoever this person is that is handling this account I want them removed from it and another who has some business ethics and professionalism so that I can get this matter resolved.

I moved around this time and have confirmation letter from the post office.

If I don't know the account number and CBE Group letter or bill, how would I know to even pay. I also printed the hassle free resolution, so you can look at an option to pay. Once again I don't know account number, but it says you can by social security lookup, I am not doing that over the internet.
