Consumer complaint received 2022-01-05 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Old information reappears or never goes away
Company: I.C. System, Inc.
State: ME

Complaint narrative:
I was reviewing my credit report the other day and noticed that my XXXX score had dropped several points. I check my credit reports 2-3 times per week and receive email alerts with any changes in my credit file on all 3 credit bureaus. This score decrease came out of nowhere, so I started investigating. Upon examining my report in search of what may have caused this sudden and unexpected drop in my score, I discovered that a collection account had been reported by IC System claiming that I owe XXXX XXXX XXXX {$1100.00}. First of all, I have NEVER EVER had an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX EVER. Secondly, this collection was REINSERTED into my credit report after it had already been DELETED OVER A YEAR AGO because it was incorrect and false reporting. Now, over a year after it was deleted from my credit reports, it is suddenly making a reappearance and decreasing my scores. THIS IS NOT ALLOWED. You CAN NOT reinsert a collection account into somebody's credit report AFTER it had already been deleted by the credit bureaus due to it being INCORRECT as I DO NOT owe this debt. I will NOT tolerate this slanderous, defamatory, and FALSE information on my credit reports. I work EXTREMELY hard to maintain an excellent credit rating and my wife and I are in the process of preparing to build a new home, so I will NOT allow some bottom feeding, money hungry collection agency to SLANDER my good credit with FALSE information and interfere with MY life plans. 

Again, this collection account was DELETED from my credit reports by the credit bureaus over a year ago because it was being falsely reported as I have NEVER done business with XXXX XXXX XXXX or XXXX ( credit bureaus do not delete collection accounts without valid reason ) and now these people from IC System are reporting it AGAIN after it has been long since deleted from my credit reports, which is NOT allowed. 

If this slanderous, incorrect collection is not IMMEDIATELY removed from my credit reports, I will be proceeding with legal action and will be seeking monetary damages from IC System for REPEATED false credit reporting. This CFPB complaint is just the very first action that I am taking in order to allow IC System a brief widow of opportunity to rectify this very serious matter. Otherwise, I can promise that I WILL be taking much more drastic action against IC System if this slanderous collection remains on my credit reports. A screen shot of this collection from my XXXX credit report is attached to this complaint.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I logged on to the American Express website to make a payment only to be greeted on the landing page by a red warning notice " account closed ''. This was a big surprise after being a customer since 2004. Especially since I have always paid my payment or contacted them to inform if the payment maybe late. I called the customer service dept and was told I could apply for a reinstatement, but 6 days later I got a denial letter stating the only reason for a denial was my current fico score. Its currently at XXXX but was XXXX for many years and I pay my bill with the same integrity now as I did in the past. Whoever decided to close my account did so by his/her opinion, not by the facts of my case, and did so rudely by giving no warning or chance to improve whatever he/she felt was the issue that warrants further destroying my credit score. I just recently completed 12 months of covid relief payment plan with success ( XXXX payments on time ) and the account closing date of XX/XX/XXXX was my early Christmas gift from Amex is an eyeopener for me since I have kept this acct open and in good standing many years naively thinking Amex was appreciative of cardholders such as I. They dont know or realize that my fico score declined after another bank charged off a credit card and obtained a judgement without my knowledge. Unfortunatetly that bank didnt get a penny from me since my disabilty retirement check is protected from garnishment and if they had left my account opened it would still be paid monthly by me. Amex will be the next failed attempt that will never get a penny from me. It works both ways, I can permanently end things with them especially since they seem to want it that way,

Complaint narrative:
Equifax is furnishing fraudulent information on my credit report. I've reached out to them multiple times to handle situation. Due to them furnishing such information on my consumer credit report it is hindering me from receiving new credit to help put my family in a better position. The inquiries on my consumer credit report are fraudulent and Equifax has yet to prove otherwise. I've reached out to receive proof of any kind of inquiries not being so and they have yet to supply me with any documentation or anything.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I pulled my credit reports in 2020 and noticed there were a few accounts listed that I did not open and or authorize. I completed an identity theft affidavit along with a police report as instructed, all of the fraudulent accounts besides a credit card from XXXX XXXX XXXX were removed. I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX over 6 times, sent a mailed copy of the ID theft affidavit, police report, and disputed this account with the XXXX major credit bureaus numerous times, not to mention called and supplied information with the reply that I would get an update, return call or correspondence, which was a lie. This company has delayed responses and resolution to removing this account that I have stated was fraudulent opened using my personal information. The address linked to this account is also fraudulent as I have never lived at the address. I have also submitted these documents and request to all three creidt major credit bureaus. XXXX was the only bureau to comply. XXXX verified the fraud account, which doesnt make any sense and Transunion did not respond. I have been dealing with this issue for over a year.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
{$35.00} overdraft fee charged to my Wells Fargo account on XX/XX/2021 I have attached the relevant statement and circled the transaction in red on page two of the document. 

At the top of the statement it specifically says the account is not protected by overdraft protection, therefore any transactions made for which funds are not available should be declined. 

The transaction of {$600.00} ( which was not an automatic payment ) immediately preceding the overdraft fee of {$35.00} put the account into negative balance causing the overdraft fee to be charged. 

Wells Fargo should have declined the transaction rather than paying it out so they could charge a fee. Paying a transaction amount greater than the account balance is the very definition of overdraft protection, and I don't want it on my account.
