Was told to wait 2 3 weeks. When I did not hear from them I called they said they could not read my driver 's license it was too small - blow it up 200 % send the request back and call within 48 hours because they can not call me- I have to call them nor can they fax back. Called again- they said they can not read the driver 's license too dark - lighten it up and fax back again. I did and even increased all attachments 200 % including gift card front and back, etc. Called today- now the credit card needs blown up again 200 % and lightened up and refax.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
We noticed a new inquire on our XXXX credit report by NFCU ( Navy Federal Credit Union ) on XX/XX/XXXX. We contacted a customer service person from there credit card investigations team to investigate the issue as fraud because I did not submit an application for an online consumer loan. This was done during the same time periods as XXXX and XXXX in which are both under review currently as well. The NFCU person over the phone advised me to submit an online Declaration of forgery form, which we did and nothing happened. No one ever contacted us back or sent us a follow up email/confirmation of the submission. I called in on XX/XX/XXXX for a follow up and no one had any record of my submission and advised I submit a new declaration which we did. We followed up on the XXXX and NFCU replied by saying the information submitted was true and no further action was needed. I believe this submission to be a case to be fraud and believe the incident was handled poorly by NFCU and am requesting NFCU to remove the falsely reported loan inquire/information from my credit report. 

Thank you Warmest Regards.

Complaint narrative:
With no other option, I'm filing a complaint against all credit reporting companies who use the lack of real-estate ownership as determining one 's credibility and keeping credit scores artificially low based on something that doesn't suggest you lack the ability to be fiscally responsible. I feel it's another tool like red-lining to keep the disadvantaged at a fiscal disadvantage by XXXX  it on homeownership, when only 65.9 % of Americans own homes and those who don't like myself who lives in metropolis areas, don't want the responsibility. Why should we be faulted and penalized for it.

Complaint narrative:
In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ), it is vital to emphasize the findings of Congress, which highlight the significance of accurate credit reporting for the efficiency of the banking system. Marketed as consumer reporting agencies ( CRAs ), these entities play a crucial role in assembling and evaluating consumer credit information. However, the Big 3 CRAs rely on data from smaller CRAs, such as XXXX, to compile consumer reports. This practice prompts us to be proactive in safeguarding our privacy rights, which is the foundation of this process. 

Identity theft is a paramount concern, and its implications extend beyond the immediate transaction. Consent is essential, and its absence constitutes a breach of privacy. The reporting of unauthorized accounts, without my express written consent, reflects identity theft. CRAs are liable under the law for their negligent and willful noncompliance, as stipulated in 15 U.S. Code 1681n, entailing possible penalties of {$1000.00} per violation. 

Moreover, the practice of buying and selling personal information without consent poses a significant privacy issue. The compilation of a comprehensive report without permission constitutes identity theft. The protection of privacy is a right, not a privilege, and I demand that the agency promptly remove and block the identified information. 

I have meticulously followed the requirements outlined in 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2, as provided by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau . Clear and conspicuous information was not provided to me regarding the reporting of these accounts, as mandated by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act.

By exercising my rights under 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2 and 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( XXXX ), I am seeking a resolution to the violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. You are now in liability as I have insisted on the immediate removal of the identified items in the past, in line with their legal obligations within four days.

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681d, the requirement for proper notification during the creation and furnishing of investigative consumer reports has been overlooked, contravening the law. 

Given the comprehensive evidence I have provided, I am pursuing a resolution to address the FCRA violations and the infringement of my privacy rights.

I also requested that XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and Transunion provide proof of their legal authority to conduct business with me. They do not have the right to neglect their obligations while threatening my financial and creditworthiness. I demanded that if they are unwilling or unable to comply with my requests within 20 days of receiving the complaint, ( XX/XX/2023 ) they immediately stop any derogatory or harmful actions against me, including reporting or collecting unverified, untrue, invalid, or non-compliant claims or debts. I informed them any attempts to harm me, no matter how small, will be considered harassment or extortion, which is a criminal offense in my state ( CT ). Such actions will lead me to take appropriate measures. Therefore, I urged them to rectify this deceitful manipulation by removing the delinquent items from my credit profile history.
