Complaint narrative:
I used to own a secured credit card with Wells Fargo until XX/XX/XXXX when I moved back to my home country after finishing my study in the XXXX. Before I left the XXXX, I visited a Wells Fargo branch to close my checking and savings accounts, paid the outstanding balance of the secured credit card, and subsequently called the phone number on the back of the card to cancel it, which I believed the card will be canceled accordingly. I moved back home in late XX/XX/XXXX and have since never used this Wells Fargo credit card. However, I moved back to the XXXX a few weeks ago and I found my credit score to be substantially low for no reason. I requested a copy of my credit report from CFPB and discovered that Wells Fargo not only did not close my credit card but it had posted a balance of {$160.00} in XX/XX/XXXX, when I had already left the country thinking the credit card had been closed. I have tried to call customer service at Wells Fargo on the phone to file a dispute about this, and they told me to mail the requested information to Wells Fargo Credit Dispute Department, and I will receive a confirmation of receipt from them in a week, I did so and XXXX tracking showed my package was delivered to Wells Fargo on XX/XX/XXXX, but I have not received any notification since then.

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

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 each account listed without my expressed written consent. 

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them. ''
