Complaint narrative:
I am not really sure what happened other than I am being told BOFA has reported an account as fraud, I don't have any knowledge of what they're referring to so I filed a dispute with XXXX XXXX as they're the ones provided information that impacted the bank in denying my request to open a checking account with XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. I was made aware of the claim when I attempted to open an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX and was told the account had restrictions and XXXX XXXX stated the same. I sent a dispute on XXXX because I honestly have no idea what this is. A response was returned from BOFA stating it was verified as accurate however NO documentation was provided supporting the validity of the claim. No amount, nothing! Just a side note I am not quite sure when this took place however I have been a victim of identity theft on more than one occasion an as recent as XX/XX/2020 someone file a fraudulent unemployment claim while i was clearly working that I had to dispute and filed a complaint with the FTC. I am getting ready to send a complaint with XXXX as I just got an email with an invoice from XXXX stating thanks for a payment and I HAVEN'T authorize ANY freakin XXXX payment this is getting so fustrating!! So I am escalating this matter with the hope that you guys can resolve this issue for me. Thanks!

Complaint narrative:
This is a continuation to complaint XXXX. Due to direct affects of the pandemic I was unable to respond within timeframe as I was medically incapable of doing such from direct affects of coronavirus. All attachments and arguments still stand and I also am accusing self lender of unethical and unfair operating practices. Self lender in their response makes claims that I owe a debt and notified me. I have repetitively and timely communicated with self about transactions that were unauthorized .Self lender has told me that i owe because i did not report the transactions withing their time period. in the attachments provided by me in case XXXX i have provided proof that is incorrect. I also would like to accuse self lender of taking advantage of me claiming to be a company to help build my credit with securities in place to avoid this very issue. When obtaining a secured credit card it states that the amount secured is the only way to increase limit amount. here is the information gathered directly from self 's web site. https : //www.self.inc/visa-secured-credit-card. to make this more egregious, my maximum limit was a very small fraction of what is said to be owed. i believe XXXX possibly a tad higher ( can provide exact information if needed ) and the card was used for several XXXX dollars at one point and unauthorized. The practices to gain assistance was and continues to be extremally laborious and unethically difficult to gain help. This is all laid out throughout attachments referring back to case XXXX this should be illegal to operate under the platform of aid and support with credit. the process to be eligible to receive a secured credit card calls for healthy and productive habits with their initial credit builder account in which I followed.

Company: Medical Data Systems, Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
After careful review of my credit reports from XXXX, XXXX XXXX and XXXX, I noticed the following accounts being reported : Medical Data Systems I- XX/XX/XXXX {$650.00} Medical Data Systems XXXX XX/XX/XXXX {$470.00} Medical Data Systems XXXX XX/XX/XXXX {$2400.00} Medical Data Systems XXXX XX/XX/XXXX {$500.00} I have not received any goods and services from this company, nor have I ever done any business with the company. I am unsure how Medical Data Systems illegally obtained any of my personal identifying information. With my limited knowledge of the law, I do know that a contract or some sort of signed agreement between myself and Medical Data Systems would make me legally bound to pay this debt they claim I owe. I am very sure that I have never provided neither a digital nor a wet signature of my personal information to this company on any agreement. 

With that being said, had Medical Data Systems 1 sent a debt validation notice to me as they are legally required to do so, then I would have been able to rightfully dispute these erroneous accounts before they unlawfully caused harm to my consumer reports. Hence, I am requesting that this company provide proof of delivery/receipt that they have sent me a debt validation notice. I have never received any written nor verbal communication as directed via the Fair Credit Reporting Act Law allowing me the proper opportunities to dispute this invalidated debt.

This is not a duplicate nor is this complaint filed by a third party. I am filing this complaint myself. Please see this complaint is processed to the letter of the law. I am appalled by the ability of the Credit Reporting Agencies to keep ignoring a consumer 's request for the correction of the disputed account on my Credit Report. Under the FCRA section 609 and 611, the Credit Bureaus are required to verify the information and status of the account being reported on my Credit Report. But in my case, XXXX XXXX XXXX has kept reporting the disputed account claiming that the information they present is accurate, in which I greatly disagree. I am submitting this complaint to you today to request that XXXX XXXX XXXX provide me copies of documents bearing my signature to verify the status of the disputed account. If the Credit Bureaus failed to comply with the condition and continue the reporting of the disputed account, please understand I will seek legal action. I need the account removed as soon possible : XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Reported : XXXX Balance : {$650.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Reported : XXXX Balance : {$770.00}
