Complaint narrative:
Despite my previous three written requests, the unverified items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. In their responses to my dispute letters, they stated that they have verified the items listed as accurate but failed to send me copies of the documents used to verify these accounts, as per my request. 

Their failure to provide these documents indicates that they can not and did not verify any of the disputed accounts as claimed. Furthermore, their failure to delete the disputed accounts that they can not verify after three written requests demonstrates a willful disregard of Federal Law.

Please review the attached letter. Thank you for your assistance.

FTC REPORT PERSONAL STATEMENT : I am filing this FTC Identity Theft Affidavit to report due to fraudulent accounts that show on my consumer FICO credit report which I do not recognize as reported and which result from identity theft and fraud. I demand that the previously mentioned fraudulent items be removed from each of my consumer credit reports and that all collection activity related to said items cease according to my rights within the FCRA and FDCPA laws. This is preventing me from being able to get approved for my home loan and I am in disbelief. 


CFPB PERSONAL STATEMENT : This CFPB complaint has been filed to request under FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you, the XXXX credit reporting agency , block and remove information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint. 
This fraudulent, inaccurate, and false information consists of a few Personal credit card accounts. 

Account name : XXXX  Date opened : XXXX XXXX These accounts have resulted in fraudulent hard inquiries and collections appearing on my consumer FICO credit report, leaving me with so much stress. I demand that the previously mentioned fraudulent items be removed from each of my consumer credit reports and that all collection activity related to said items cease according to my rights within the FCRA and FDCPA laws. I have attached a copy of FTC Identity Theft Criminal Complaint # XXXX as proof from the US Federal Trade Commission that all previous consumer credit accounts, closed accounts, collections, and hard inquiries result from identity theft and fraud.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Dispute of XXXX and XXXX XXXX, Innovis have been reporting fraudulent and inaccurate information on my consumer report. Not only are they reporting inconsistent and incorrect late payments, but they are also reporting data that should not legally be included in my file under federal law. 

This fluctuation in reported late payments is factually incorrect and a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX. XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ) ( A ), which explicitly states that furnishers must report accurate information and must not report information they know to be erroneous. 

Legal Basis for My Dispute : XXXX XXXX. XXXX - Definition of a Consumer Report Nowhere in this statute does it state that late payments should be included in a consumer report. Late payments are transactional experiences between a consumer and a lender and are not legally reportable events under this definition. 

XXXX XXXX. XXXX - Responsibilities of XXXX XXXX This XXXX makes it illegal to report information that is knowingly inaccurate. Your inconsistent reporting proves that the information being furnished is unreliable, making it a clear FCRA violation. 

XXXX XXXX. XXXX ( XXXX ) ( A ) ( i ) - Exclusion of Transactional Information This law explicitly states that consumer reports should not include transactional data or experiences between a consumer and a lender. Late payments fall under this category and, therefore, should not be reported at all. 

Requested Action : Immediately remove the inaccurate late payment entries from my consumer report. 

XXXX a full investigation and provide proof of the accuracy of the reported information or delete it entirely. 

Confirm in writing that these corrections have been made within 30 days, as required by XXXX law.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CT

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX or XXXX, I received a letter from Capital One that the XXXX dispute had been essentially resolved, though it had and the letter indicated it was final, my limit remained at XXXX and the funds that should have been available were not. I contacted them and asked why and no one could give me an explanation as to why, in fact when I call, I am advised that they're collecting a debt, which my account is not past due nor late. And when I called today, because I received another letter that it was final, again I got the run around. My available credit should be available and not held hostage due to capital ones ' slow movement, and in fact, it should have been available during this whole thing but they make their own rules and do what they like which is why I'll be canceling the card in a few weeks, after I look into others because I don't do business with any business that doesn't put their customer 's needs first nor respect their customers nor their money. And capital one is almost the worst bank. # XXXX.

Company: Eastern Account Systems of Connecticut, Inc.
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
The credit reporting agencies and the collection agencies stated the debt was mine. I began disputing this information on my credit report in XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX I sent letters to the credit reporting agencies that my personal information was wrong on my credit report, my name was spelled wrong. There were numerous spellings of my name, multiple addresses that were not mine, the employer listed was not correct, and the phone number was incorrect. I sent the disputes by mail certified with a receipt. My credit reports do not show any disputes with the collection agencies. I filed with the FTC because since I have caught this issue my data has been breached 4 times in less than a year. I have no online access to XXXX or XXXX because I am locked out of those credit reports online. Since my information is not correct when I call the two agencies they can't identify me as the account owner. I have never signed any agreement to have my personal information to be sold to any third party. However, since the original creditors have sold my information and the credit bureaus have failed to manage my personal information my social security number has been compromised and now I am dealing with identity theft.

Absent such proof, you must terminate this collection action and correct any erroneous reports of this debt as mine.

Complaint narrative:
Im writing to dispute some accounts and credit inquiries on my report that were added without my knowledge or permission. Unfortunately, after a data breach, my personal information was compromised. As a result, unauthorized accounts were opened, and credit inquiries were made in my name. These actions were not something I authorized, yet theyre still showing up on my credit report, which is affecting my credit score in a negative way. 

Despite my attempts to resolve this, these inaccuracies are still present. Its very concerning, not only because theyre damaging my credit, but also because they raise serious questions about the safety of my personal information and the accuracy of my credit report.
