Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Since XXXX I had noticed having unrecognizable transactions in my main bank account. As I had always assumed used bill pay to pay bills and make deposits to my acct at another institution, I never had used wire transfer as a way to send funds. Upon my discovery of possible account/identity fraud ; my account with flagstar had received an unexpected zelle transfer that needed a verification and when I questioned it I never received a response nor funds. At one point the account had listed other accts that seemed attached from multiple banks of financial offering and I had sent in a request to the banks I regularly dealt with as well as the transfer company to find out what was linked and about the rare notice. As I never received a response I had just began using the service as I needed to now use the only savings I had because of the fraud I've been dealing with ever since I inquired about the original process of transfer not making sense. As I have made transfers I noticed that bb & t was linked yet, I wasn't aware of this account and have never been notified. Since it seems to me that the original concern has gone unanswered I am attempting once again to get information on an acct linked to my bank via XXXX and find out how long it's been active and why no communication has ever been made. I have already put in another request for acct profile information to offset the increased problem I'm having with getting information on sum thing that thru a verification process ; shouldn't take so much work. It has been a concern that not only is identity theft possible as I have seen information on my birth altered in a way that the situation would assume a laundering of funds that had been filtered by this method as the questions asked when verifying identity would include date of birth. My attention to this was brought on by a XXXX call that said my year of birth was XXXX, when it's XXXX. And with my acct limited access for a long period of time along with finding my phone number being hacked n emails redirected as well as opened with no knowledge, I am researching the situation in a different approach as I feel the original request must not have flagged all the institutions involved.

Company: Incomm Holdings Inc.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
Received a vanilla gift card and it does not work. The company website gives a system error when I attempt to register the card or check the balance. There is no way to contact customer care online and they do not answer their phone. I held for 30 minutes for a representative before a representative finally answered. I was told that the funds were depleted on this card and when I told her that wasn't possible she offered to open a case for me. I was told that I needed to provide my date of birth and submit a copy of my photo ID, neither of which is not going to happen. This company is well known for fraud yet they are still allowed to remain in business and sell their worthless cards.

XX/XX/22 -- Disputed a Public Record item appearing within my credit file with Transunion as a result of the company 's Violations of Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 611 ( 15 U.S.C 1681 ) reporting requirements but also Violation of FCRA 623 ( b ) ( 1 ) which states : FCRA 623 ( b ) ( 1 ), credit reporting agencies or furnisher of information being reported which turns out to be inaccurate, incomplete, or cant be verified, must be permanently deleted. *** As per Section 609, I am entitled to see the original furnisher or source of the information and in this case the original furnishers is/are : the US Bankruptcy Court Middle District of Alabama XXXX The original furnisher ( s ), the US Bankruptcy Court Middle District of Alabama, do not report to any credit reporting agencies to include XXXX, XXXX, Transunion, or XXXX. Neither does the Court report to any third-party credit reporting agency furnishers or reseller of information. This rule applies to All US Courts therefore any statements alluding to Transunion stating the information being reported within my credit file with their company as verified and accurate is an error or a lie.

Either way the reporting requirements do not comply with FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C 1681 ) and 623 ( b ) ( 1 ) therefore the information must be deleted immediately. **

Complaint narrative:
This is not a duplicate nor is this complaint being filed by a third party, I am filing this complaint myself. Please see this complaint is processed to the letter of the law. 
I've talked to the bank & they've agreed to update the accounts. BUT TransUnion has some internal block that they're claiming they can use to not update the accounts because they feel they're above the law. When questioned why they're not accepting the Identity Theft report they claim they have an internal policy ( which is OUTSIDE FCRA laws ) & they're unwilling to explain why they won't accept the Identity Theft report ( which is a FEDERAL LAW ). So TransUnion feels they're above the letter of the law & will not explain their policy... 
I have a loan with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. I have always made my payments on time. Ive contacted the bank about the issue & they continue to fail to provide me with verifiable proof, Transunion shall, upon request, and subject to 610 ( a ) ( 1 ) [ 1681h ], clearly and accurately disclose to the consumer. If the consumer to whom the file relates requests that the first 5 digits of the social security number ( or similar identification number ) of the consumer not be included in the disclosure and the consumer reporting agency has received appropriate proof of the identity of the requester, the consumer reporting agency shall so truncate such number in such disclosure. & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) Procedure in case of disputed accuracy [ 15 U.S.C. 1681i ] ( a ) Reinvestigations of Disputed Information. If the completeness or accuracy of any items of information contained in a my file at Transunion is disputed by the consumer and the consumer notifies the agency directly, or indirectly through a creditor, the Bureaus shall, free of charge, conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate and record the current status of the disputed information, or delete the items from my file in accordance with paragraph ( 5 ), before the end of the 30-day period beginning on the date on which the agency receives the notice of the dispute from the consumer or creditor. Ive disputed it with Transunion credit reporting agencies & they too are withholding any verifiable proof. I believe their records are wrong & Id like this matter handled ASAP. Please update to paid as agreed/never late.
