Complaint narrative:
I am doing my best to exercise my right as a consumer to not have my nonpublic information being reported on my consumer report pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I have given this agency written instructions to cease the reporting of accounts stated in the attached dispute letter and they have denied my request which violates the FCRA. My financial information is nonpublic information and I have a right to privacy as well as to opt out of the reporting as required by law.

State: GA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/23 I wrote a dispute to the 3 major credit bureaus TransUnion, XXXX, and XXXX. The account that this complaint is about is XXXX  XXXX XXXX ( Account ending in XXXX ). I asked the credit bureaus to investigate because the balance should be XXXX. It is a charged off account which has been sold to debt collectors, I say debt collectors because I have received 2 notices from two seperate companies telling me that I owed a debt, with the original creditor being XXXX  XXXX XXXX. Now I am getting a response to my dispute from XXXX  XXXX XXXX as well, on two occasions. One on XX/XX/XXXX and one on XX/XX/XXXX. Both state I owe a blance of {$470.00}. So now XXXX  XXXX XXXX is illegally charging me a balance after selling my debt to not one, but two debt collecton agencies, which are also contacting me to pay this debt. I want this inaccurate account removed from my credit report and updated the balance to XXXX immediately. This is highly suspicious activity and honestly I would not mind getting a lawyer at this point because XXXX  XXXX XXXX is supposed to be a reputable company but now it turns out they are looking to collect a debt from ME as well as sell my debt to TWO debt collectors to get even more money.

Company: Albert Corporation
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I opened an account with a money management bank account in an app called Albert. I recently got a new debit card from my bank I linked to Albert and all of a sudden it UNLINKED my bank. They told me to relink my account as well as my new debit card. I performed this on XX/XX/XXXX. It is now XX/XX/XXXX and it's still giving me an issue. So I decided I want to close my Albert account. According to them to do that I need to withdraw all the money that I have saved in that account so that it can be XXXX. I have done this but there's still a {$1.00} left in my account. On Albert. However upon checking my bank I've noticed that Albert did indeed actually deposit the money into my account but it's still showing up on Albert that I have a positive balance of a dollar XXXX. Not only that but it's still not connecting my bank account so that I can withdraw the funds. They have been absolutely no help at all I find it very odd and quite disparaging that one little change I made to my account cause them to completely unlink my bank account and is making it ridiculously difficult to really get back. I am beyond upset and disgusted with this company I do not want to do business with them anymore but they are refusing to close the accounts let alone their system is just not accepting information that is credible in regards to relinking my checking account from which my income comes from. It's has been a very frustrating and unprofessional experience I've had with them and I do not want to ever do business with them ever again but for whatever reason there are refusing to close my account.

According to 15 usc 1681E ( B ) They are supposed to report with maximum accuracy but they failed to do so.

I hope we remedy this situation or I'll be forced to litigate through arbitration as this is my last resort.
