Complaint narrative:
Hi I hope all is well!

Recently, I did an investigation on my credit report which caused me severe stress and depression upon me and found unverifiable, invalidated, inaccurate, and questionable items that your agency didn't make sure it was reporting 100 % correct.

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, everything has to be 100 % accurate on my credit report and Under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) these accounts are in violation of not reporting 100 % accurate.

The credit reporting agencies stated that these accounts were properly investigated and came back as verified. However, how is this true when there are several inaccuracies showing on my report?

As a consumer, I request to know all the steps your agency took to insure these items were 100 % accurate under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( 7 ) Method of verification- Description of reinvestigation procedure

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I am writing to let you know that I have a US Bank credit card and there is incorrect information reporting on my credit report. On XX/XX/2021, there is a late payment reporting. During this time I was diagnosed with XXXX, I was unemployed, and my life was a disaster. I am aware of my rights and I contacted the companies I have credit cards with to notify them that I would be late this month. Everyone I notified did not report a late payment on my credit report. Today, I checked my credit report and saw that US Bank is reporting a late for the month XXXX XXXX XXXX  even though I called and notified customer service about my issue. This was not my fault that I was late and I did everything in my power to pay you guys my payment as soon as possible. I am in the home buying process and this is the only negative mark I've ever had in my whole life on my credit. I am asking you to please remove the late reporting on this account. I would be very happy, as I have done all that I can to be a good customer to your company and I am happy with being a client with your company I just would like this problem resolved as soon as possible as it is holding me back a lot. 

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation with me on this issue.

Complaint narrative:
I initially submitted an application on XX/XX/2023 to XXXX XXXX regarding a credit card named XXXX XXXX.Upon initial submission I received a pre approval offer, and was told a manger would be in touch shortly to finish the application. Any pre approval offer must be a firm offer or this is an adverse action under Equal Credit Opportunity Act ( ECOA ) I provided this company with my social and was told that my personal credit must be check in order to continue my application. I was told that initially my application was approved and that the personal credit check is to personal guarantee the amount I requested, and if that amount is not sufficient I would receive a different line of credit. I received an hard inquiry but was never extended any form of credit. After calling XXXX technologies for months and sending countless emails, requesting to speak to my account manager XXXX I have yet to hear back from this company. I was even told through a member of the company that none of the cars require a personal guarantee, so if my original submitted application was approved like I was told and reassured by a operating member of this company. I have not yet received a card nor response regarding this matter.This is a firm breach of contract and also causing damage to my credit report as well for this inquiry being reported without me being extended any extension of credit. Ive sent 3 letters regarding my application and have not yet heard back nor does anyone answer the phone number I am given to call
