Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NH

Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you, the EQUIFAX credit reporting agency , block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint. 

This fraudulent, inaccurate, and false information consists of a credit card opened at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX account number, a credit card opened at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  account number. 

These accounts have resulted in several fraudulent chargeoffs, fraudulent late payments, and fraudulent collections appearing on my consumer FICO credit report. I do not recognize the aforementioned accounts, collections, late payments, or chargeoffs as reported. The aforementioned accounts, collections, and chargeoffs appearing on my consumer credit report maintained by you were not opened, made, or initiated by me. All of the aforementioned accounts, collections, late payments, and charge-offs are the result of identity theft and fraud. I have attached a copy of FTC Identity Theft Criminal Complaint XXXX XXXXXXXX as proof from the US Federal Trade Commission that all of the aforementioned consumer credit accounts, collections, and hard inquiries are the result of identity theft and fraud. I demand that the aforementioned fraudulent items be removed from my consumer credit report and that all collection activity related to said items cease pursuant to my rights within the FCRA and FDCPA laws.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
Please see complaint XXXX submitted on XX/XX/XXXX which is improperly closed. The initial complaint was to remove a credit freeze from the Equifax credit bureau for me, XXXX XXXX XXXX, as XXXX XXXX XXXX can not pull credit for a mortgage application. Numerous calls were made to the Equifax call center through XXXX with no success, despite Equifax representatives stating repeatedly the freeze was removed. In early XXXX their data base showed the freeze lifted on XX/XX/XXXX but by the afternoon when XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX tried to pull credit, it was still frozen. In calling Equifax again, they now wanted copies of a Social Security card & Driver 's License to be submitted. I was not prepared to do so with an unknown individual in an international outsourced service center. I was not able to talk with a manger, or talk with anyone in the US regarding this matter. Everyone I spoke to is an entry level call center representative working off a script. After the complaint referenced above I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from Equifax requesting identification documents and a request letter to be sent to two different XXXX XXXX XXXX. I complied with this request and sent the materials trackable USPS. They were received as I then received another letter from Equifax dated XX/XX/XXXX with my full credit report stating the freeze was lifted. Two days later I received another letter from Equifax dated XX/XX/XXXX stating my credit was frozen again with no explanation. I was CLEAR in my written communications to them I was trying to get a freeze LIFTED. It was again frozen on the site. Additionally, there are two errors on the materials sent to me from Equifax now and on their website. They show I lived at a XXXX XXXX, VA address XX/XX/XXXX. I never lived there. They are missing my XXXX Installment loan for my XXXX XXXX XXXX which was on the site previously. They reduced my credit score by XXXX points. AGAIN, I am trying to obtain a mortgage. I can not do so. I need my credit report unfrozen, these two errors corrected and my credit score updated properly. This is unacceptable service and is directly affected my finances in a negative way through no fault of my own.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: DE

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because I am appalled with Citi 's decision that there is insufficient information to support my claim for a partial refund of {$810.00}, which XXXX promised multiple times and ultimately refused to give me. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed a pricing discrepancy for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX. Despite the listing showing {$130.00} per tire, the actual price increased to {$340.00} when I attempted to purchase. I contacted XXXX customer service, and after a detailed discussion, they instructed me to purchase the tires at the higher price with a promise of a partial refund. They confirmed the refund of {$810.00} several times in communications, including with their managers, but never processed it despite repeated follow-ups. I provided extensive evidence, including screenshots and confirmation emails. See attached docx file for a detailed timeline and screenshots of emails and chat transcripts with XXXX. 

When XXXX ultimately refused the refund, I initiated a dispute with Citi, confident that the overwhelming documentation supported my claim. I am deeply disappointed that Citi sided with XXXX, claiming insufficient evidence, despite the extensive proof I submitted. I respectfully request that the CFPB review this case and help rectify this unfair situation. Citi case ID = XXXX
