Complaint narrative:
I filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party. They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
I am writing regarding my credit card dispute with Chase, case number XXXX. I stayed at the XXXX XXXX XXXX from XX/XX/XXXX - XXXX, yet I was charged three times by the Merchant instead of once. Two of the charges were just made on my card virtually, using my card number without my permission. 

Please see the attached hotel booking confirmation and invoice confirming the total amount I was supposed to be charged to be {$1000.00} for the stay from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. I did not agree for the merchant to charge me on additional two more occasions. 

During the dispute process, which was initiated I believe in late XXXX or early XXXX, the merchant did not provide any form of documentation that I authorized extra charges. Yet, Chase claimed the merchant won the dispute. Later, I provided Chase with the booking confirmation and the invoice from hotel as requested, which together prove that the two additional charges were unjustified. 

Hence, the merchant had no authorization to charge me again using my credit card numbers virtually on XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year> in the amount of {$1200.00} and {$170.00} since it had already charged me once on XX/XX/year> physically with my card.

Product: Debt collection — Medical debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: United Collection Bureau, Inc.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute an alleged debt reported by United Collections Bureau Inc on my credit report. The agency placed this collection without giving me the opportunity to challenge the debt or validate any information. I ended up paying the debt due to the constant abusive, deceptive, and unfair debt collection practices of this agency. 

A six-month payment term was agreed upon in XX/XX/XXXX for the debt, with all payments made monthly directly from my account to the agency. After the six-month term had elapsed and all payments were made, the collection agency placed a collection on my credit report without notice or opportunity to pay the balance or their decision. 

I contacted the agency to inquire why they placed the negative report on my credit report after the agreed payments were made. They confirmed their error and apologized but refused to correct it, instead referring me to the credit bureaus. I again contacted United Collections Bureau requesting a pay-to-delete agreement, which was agreed upon. However, the agency refused to delete the collections after full payment of the balance of {$530.00} was made. 

This negative report has been on my credit report since XX/XX/XXXX, and the agency is now requesting an additional {$200.00} to contact all three credit bureaus to remove the collections from my records. I have experienced immense mental stress, being denied mortgage loans and credit cards, which has severely impacted my ability to care for my family as a single parent of XXXX children. This is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 

Please help me get this off my credit report. 
Thank you for your cooperation.

Complaint narrative:
This report is against EXPERIAN CREDIT REPORTING AGENCY back in XX/XX/XXXX i noticed a negative reported account from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX as a charge off that said i opened an account with them back in XX/XX/XXXX and that it closed with a negative balance in XXXX. i filed a dIspute claiming identity theft with all three OF THE MAJOR REPORTING AGENCIES, experian, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX. i first submitted an identity theft report with my local police department, then with the CFPB. I included the identity theft reports, a letter stating i had no knowledge of this account, i in no way benefited or received any compensation in any way from the account, and i demanding they block the information within 4 business days, i also submitted proof of identity, proof of address, and a copy of my credit report identifying the incorrect data. only XXXX XXXX blocked the negative information. i contacted the XXXX XXXX, they sent me the application and the proof of identity the person used to open the account. it was clear that the person in the id was in no way me. all they had to do was compare the driver license i submitted to prove my identity, with the identity that the person used to open the account in my name and it is obvious its not me. XXXX XXXX obviously did this simple investigation, as they removed the negative derogatory info immediately from my credit file. experian did not.

A few weeks ago I checked my credit report and my score had fallen over XXXX XXXX points from the last time Id checked it.
