Complaint narrative:
I am writing to request assistance with multiple inaccuracies on my credit report that have adversely impacted my credit standing. Despite my efforts to resolve these issues directly with both creditors and credit reporting agencies, I have not received a satisfactory resolution. These inaccuracies include erroneous information regarding account details, duplicated accounts, outdated collection entries, incorrect open or closed account statuses, and unauthorized inquiries, all of which create a misleading portrayal of my creditworthiness. I kindly ask the CFPB to require the involved parties to correct, delete, or update the disputed information on my credit report in line with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), so that my credit report can reflect my accurate financial history. I am attaching supporting documents and I look forward to your assistance in resolving this matter promptly. Thank you for your attention to this request.

Complaint narrative:
Earlies this year, I requrested the removal of name aliases in my credit file. Experian did remove the aliases. However, they keep adding these aliases to my credit profile. Additionally, when I tried to contact them via telephone, there was no way I was able to contact a live agent to have the wrong information removed. 

At the time when I tried calling, The only number available in my credit file was a land line which is not capable of receiving text messages. Because of this, I was not able to access my online account with this company for months until I was able to fix my access. 

On top of this, I have also requested the removal of several hard inquiries made in my credit file during the months of XXXX and XXXX. These inquiries were not authorized nor requested by me and are possibly the result of identity theft

Complaint narrative:
Dear [ CFPB ], I am writing to file an urgent complaint regarding fraudulent charges that have been reported on my credit report. I am a victim of identity theft, and my personal information is being used by an unknown individual across various accounts that I do not recognize or authorize. I travel frequently and am not well-versed in managing my credit, which my wife recently reviewed and found multiple accounts that have been opened in my name without my knowledge. This is an ongoing and dangerous situation that has persisted for months. Despite my repeated attempts to resolve the issue, no creditors or bureaus have provided any contracts, signatures, or proof to substantiate the charges or transactions. I was not notified by the credit bureaus or creditors within the required XXXX window, as outlined in 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( Validation of Debts ), which I was informed about by my lawyer. This failure to notify me is illegal and violates my consumer rights under federal law. As per 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( Fair Credit Reporting Act ), my right to privacy, confidentiality, and accurate reporting has been directly violated. Additionally, 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) prohibits furnishing inaccurate information to consumer reporting agencies, which has clearly occurred in my case. I demand immediate action to remove these fraudulent accounts from my credit report and protect my privacy and rights. I will pursue legal action against both the bureaus and creditors involved for failing to provide the necessary documentation and for violating my federally protected rights.

Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them.

Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.

Complaint narrative:
Hi, I unknowingly deposited fictitious checks into my checking account with Citizens Bank, N. A. provided to me by a fraudster impersonating a college professor performing a research project. Two deposits in the amount of {$990.00} each were made on XX/XX/2024 and XX/XX/2024 for a total of {$1900.00} and withdraws by myself were made through XXXX XXXX and XXXX payment services to fraudulent payees against my linked Citizens checking account. Citizens had indicated that there was available cash in the account from which to withdraw against, implying that the checks cleared. I only made payments after this indication. A few days later, Citizen identified the checks as fraudulent, and created overdraft balances on my account. I contacted Citizens claims department where I indicated that they should make me whole for the balance of approx {$900.00} in my account since they wrongly indicated that funds deposited through online banking were available providing no warning that they were not fully cleared. A claim was made with XXXX XXXX jointly with Citizens reference XXXX. This a claim against the payees. This is still in process, however, my claim is against Citizens for giving the impression that the checks deposited were fully cleared by making that balance available for withdrawal. My account has no overdraft protection so they should not effectively be indicating the money is available when it did not fully clear. I would like for Citizens to make me hole upfront as their controls did not catch these fictitious checks prior to withdrawals. Thanks.
