Complaint narrative:
I called and sent letters to EXPERIAN about the generic letter that I received about my disputes. There are two bankruptcies that are reporting on my credit report that are fraud and not mine along with an account from XXXX XXXX XXXX  texas, and 5 inquiries. As a consumer this is very frustrating and against my rights according to the 1978 FDCPA 15 U.S.C. 1692-1692P. 

EXPERIAN has displayed no proof of validation and only send me something generic saying its validated. 

I also sent them my police report and my FTC report which shows fraud from the accounts that I've disputed. FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681C-2 ) was also submitted to block these fraudulent accounts along with fraud inquiries, bankruptcies, and address. The accounts are hindering me from obtaining credit and housing.

State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
Hi, On XXXXXXXX XXXX, I have opened a TD Beyond Checking Account package ( along with new savings accounts ) by using an online promotion of receiving {$600.00} ( {$200.00} for savings and {$400.00} for checking with different eligibility criteria as received in a promotion mailer ) and met all the criteria of the promotion to deposit funds in form of new money into the savings account within first few days of opening the account. After couple of months, I had received the {$200.00} in the savings account as expected. 
I had also successfully satisfied all the eligibility criteria for the checking account bonus which was direct deposit setup from my employer directly. Surprisingly in the initial 3 months, my employer direct deposit was shown as ACH deposit in TD bank statement and it seems because of which they are not ready to issue the {$400.00} bonus. However, right after the promotional period the same deposit from my same employer suddenly started showing as direct deposit which was there till XX/XX/. Moreover I had offered them to provide proof that on same period during XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX  my other bank deposits came as direct deposit from my employer. Unfortunately, they didn't allow my to show the proof and denied 8-10 times I tried to escalate this matter. Till XXXX XXXX end, I tried and failed and finally decided to close all my accounts in TD bank. 
I had maintained that high balance for past 9 months in the bank for no reason, so I'm really frustrated and feeling helpless. So I am requesting for any help or support in this matter if possible. Thanks in advance.

Complaint narrative:
I have been a victim of identity theft which I discovered around XX/XX/. I have notified all consumer reporting agencies with a FTC Identity theft report which listed all the accounts added to my report without my knowledge. Some of the items were removed and some were not. The situation has caused my own banking privileges to be dramatically downgraded and created a storm of financial complications, unknown collection accounts and debt which is now attached to my name. The consumer reporting agencies are not exactly helping and I am unsure where to turn. I was told that it can take another 30 days for the creditors to respond to my disputed accounts on top of the previous 60 days which is unacceptable and even uncertain. I am completely blinded by the situation and unsure how to remedy the problem. Please help.
