Consumer complaint received 2024-06-21 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the unauthorized inquiries listed on my credit report, which are fraudulent in nature. Despite my multiple correspondences with your bureau and the submission of the required FTC Identity Theft Report, these inquiries remain on my credit file. As a victim of identity theft, I have taken all necessary steps to address this issue, including contacting the institutions associated with these inquiries and providing comprehensive documentation to substantiate my claims. Despite these efforts, your bureau has yet to resolve this matter satisfactorily. It is essential to note that the fraudulent nature of these inquiries has been confirmed by the respective institutions, and they have assured me that these inquiries were erroneous and should be removed. Furthermore, other credit bureaus have already acted on the FTC report and removed these unauthorized inquiries from their records. Therefore, I am perplexed and concerned by your bureau 's continued reporting of these fraudulent inquiries. This ongoing issue not only undermines the accuracy of my credit report but also causes significant distress and potential financial harm to me.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint against these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. Surprisingly, I haven't received any response or correspondence from the Bureaus, and they have already closed my complaint. Could you please explain why they closed my complaint without resolving the issue? Have they even acknowledged or verified my dispute? I need assurance that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report and validated the accounts. Can you provide details about the methods they used to verify my report? This situation is incredibly frustrating! It has been more than 30 days since I filed the complaint, and I expected these accounts to be updated by now. If they are not updated immediately, I will have no other option but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach.

Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I have used the Citi Costco credit card ( acceptable anywhere ) on XX/XX/2024 to pay {$300.00} at XXXX via XXXX. There was no disclosure anywhere in XXXX that fees would be charged for using a credit card, and others said that they were not charged anything extra by their credit cards. Citi slammed my account with a {$15.00} cash advance fee and interest charges. They also showed the transaction pending from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, when the statement was issued, so I could not dispute it in between. I called them to dispute it, but the refuse to remove the charges. Its very misleading to consumers. I did not know that cash advance is even an option for the credit card. They should have either denied the transaction or added more prompts, so customers are aware of the extra charges.

Company: Abra
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Aside from the multiple and concerning lawsuits Abra currently has pending, I have found that Abra continues to ignore and provide unprofessional responses in regards to my account. Per my latest communication with Abra, remaining unanswered as usual as of XX/XX/XXXX, Abra continues to ignore my clear concern regarding fully withdrawing funds from my account and continues to discuss a network fee, of which I have no issues over. I am pasting, again, my last response to Abra, who has continued to ignore and not fully or correctly address concerns regarding allowing me to withdraw my funds. I have warned them multiple times over the course of nearly 8 months to resolve this, and they have been largely unresponsive or have had their team copy and paste unrelated responses. Abra, please fully and correctly address my concern. Nothing about my concern is in regards to network fees. My balance fully covers your network fees, that's why there is a balance leftover that is to be returned to me when I am making a withdrawal. If that is not the case, please breakdown the network fees in regards to my current balance : " Again, allow me to withdraw crypto and lift the minimum fee. This is what Im referring to as liquidate. This has nothing to do with network fees, Im aware theyre included. ''

Complaint narrative:
I am writing once more to express my bewilderment regarding your credit bureau 's handling of the investigation into the fraudulent accounts on my credit report. 
As you are aware, I have submitted the necessary documentation to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) regarding these fraudulent accounts. Following this submission, XXXX and XXXX promptly removed these accounts from their records. 

I have also contacted the companies associated with these accounts directly, and they have confirmed the removal of the accounts from their records. Thus, I am perplexed as to why these accounts continue to be reported by your bureau. 

It is crucial to recognize that as a credit bureau, you are legally obligated to ensure the accuracy and timeliness of your records. Failing to remove these fraudulent accounts not only breaches this duty but also subjects me to further harm.
