Issue: Trouble using your card — Can't use card to make purchases
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> I went to use my card at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, the card was declined and I got a Citi Fraud alert to verify some transactions. I called and verified and they said I could retry my card. 

The next day my card wasn't going through again so I called in and they said " you called in yesterday to remove an authorized user and that's why we have to send you a new card '' I told them I did not call in and to pull up the recorded conversation it had NOTHING to do with the removal of an authorized user. They insisted that was the case without providing any evidence. I called in to remove an authorized user perhaps 1+ year ago NOT yesterday on XX/XX/year>. 

Them closing my card and sending out a new one created a mess for me with many people I had that use that card for my day to day life.

When you provide information to a CRA, you have obligations under the FCRA to ensure the accuracy of the information you furnish. As a rule, its illegal to report information that you know or believe is inaccurate. You have " reasonable cause to believe '' that information is inaccurate if you have knowledge, other than allegations from the consumer, that would lead a reasonable person to doubt the accuracy of the information. FCRA Section 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) You may be exempt from this requirement if you give an address for consumers to report inaccurate information, but you can not, under any circumstances, report information the consumer has told you is inaccurate if it is, in fact, inaccurate. FCRA Section 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( C ) Closed Accounts If you furnish information to a CRA on a regular basis, you must notify the CRA that a consumer has voluntarily closed an account the next time you send information that would normally include that account. This is important because some users of information may interpret a closed account as an indicator of bad credit unless you clearly disclose that the consumer, not the creditor, closed the account. FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 4 ) If a CRA notifies you that a consumer disputes information you provided, you must : investigate the dispute and review all relevant information provided by the CRA about the dispute ; report your findings to the CRA ; provide corrected information to every CRA that received the information if your investigation shows the information is incomplete or inaccurate ; and modify the information, delete it, or permanently block its reporting if the information turns out to be inaccurate or incomplete or cant be verified. FCRA 623 ( b ) ( 1 ) You must complete these steps within the same time allowed under the FCRA for the CRA to resolve the dispute. Normally, this is 30 days after the CRA gets the dispute from the consumer. If the consumer provides additional relevant information during the 30day period, the CRA has 15 more days to resolve the dispute. The CRA must give you all the relevant information it gets within five business days of receipt, and must promptly give you additional relevant information provided by the consumer. If you dont investigate and respond to the notification of the dispute within the specified times, the CRA must delete the disputed information from its files. FCRA 623 ( b ) ( 2 ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 )

State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Complaint Regarding Mortgage Closing Documents and Foreclosure Action I am writing to address concerns regarding the mortgage closing that took place on XX/XX/XXXX, and the ongoing foreclosure action against us. 

At the closing, my common law wife and I requested copies of the signed documents and were promised, by the title company representatives and bank representatives, that they would be provided. Despite the promises and repeated requests, we never received the closing documents when initally requested. Only after my wife filed complaints with the CFPB and additional correspondence from us, did we get the closing documents from XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, we received a denial of the rescission request, from the current serviceing company, as well as the mortgage application and other items. 

Under 12 CFR 1026.23 ( h ) ( 1 ) ( ii ), which addresses the right of rescission at foreclosure, it is clear that if the required disclosures are not provided, the borrower may rescind the transaction. 
I respectfully request acknowledgement of our rights under 12 CFR 1026.23 ( h ) ( 1 ) ( ii ) and an investigation into the matter. I look forward to a response and a satisfactory resolution.

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 account listed without my expressed written consent.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.
