State: MO

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint regarding a fraudulent and inaccurate account listed on my FactorTrust credit report ( Report XXXX : XXXX, dated XX/XX/XXXX ). The account is reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX Disputes, with a reported date of XX/XX/XXXX and a partial account number ending in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 

I have never applied for, authorized, or had any financial relationship with XXXX XXXX. This account was added without my knowledge or consent, and I believe it is the result of fraud or identity theft. In addition, the report includes outdated and inaccurate personal information such as an old phone number, email, and employer. The account has had no activity, updates, or verification since XXXX and appears to be entirely unverifiable. 

I formally disputed this with FactorTrust and requested the immediate deletion of the account under my rights granted by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), including sections 1681e ( b ) and 1681i ( a ). These laws require consumer reporting agencies to ensure maximum possible accuracy and to remove any unverifiable or fraudulent information within 30 days of a dispute. 

Despite my dispute, XXXX has not deleted the account or provided any documentation proving its legitimacy. This unresolved fraudulent account is negatively affecting the integrity of my consumer report. 

I am requesting the CFPBs assistance in compelling XXXX to fully investigate and delete this fraudulent account from my file, as required by federal law.

Finding unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries, and false personal information made or reported without my knowledge or agreement completely stunned and grieved me.

To see what I'm complaining about, please refer to the attached file! 

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint against Synchrony Bank regarding their continued and unlawful credit reporting practices related to my PayPal Mastercard account, which was included in my XXXX  XXXX XXXX  filed and discharged in XXXX. 

Despite the legal discharge of this debt, Synchrony Bank has continued to : Report the account as charged off month after month, long after the discharge. 
Update the tradeline regularly as if the charge-off is current and ongoing. 
Maintain a full derogatory payment history, creating the false impression that I am continually delinquent on a debt I am no longer legally obligated to pay. 

This repeated and inaccurate reporting is : A violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Creditors must furnish accurate and complete data. Continued charge-off reporting after a XXXX  discharge is factually incorrect and misleading. 
A violation of the XXXX  Code 524 Once a debt is discharged, any action to collect or pressure payment, including ongoing negative credit reporting, is strictly prohibited. 
Harmful to my XXXX XXXX and financial standing, as the repeated updates make the account appear as a fresh or current delinquency. 

I have sent a formal dispute to Synchrony Bank requesting they : Cease monthly charge-off updates. 
Update the account to reflect a {$0.00} balance and XXXX  discharge. 
Remove or suppress the entire tradeline, given the repeated misreporting and damage caused. 

To date, no correction has been made. I am asking the CFPB to intervene and ensure Synchrony Bank complies with federal law by correcting this account or removing it entirely from my credit file across all three major bureaus ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 

Supporting documents attached : Credit report showing continued monthly charge-off reporting Thank you for your assistance in resolving this matter.
