Complaint narrative:
Description of the Disputes : Subject : Credit Report Discrepancies Victim of Human XXXX  My name is XXXX XXXX, and I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding inaccurate and fraudulent information listed on my credit reports with Experian, XXXX, and XXXX. As a victim of XXXX XXXX, my personal and financial information was misused without my consent, leading to several inaccuracies on my credit reports. I have already submitted dispute letters to each of the credit bureaus along with an FTC report to substantiate my claim. 

Specifically, the following accounts were reported inaccurately : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Reported as charged off with a balance of {$36000.00}, which is incorrect. 
XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Reported as charged off with a balance of {$180.00}, which is incorrect. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX ) Listed as a collection account with a balance of {$3200.00}. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Reported as charged off with a balance of {$180.00}, which is inaccurate. 
XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and 60 days past due, despite being paid and closed. 
XXXX. XXXX  XXXX Listed as disputed and closed by the credit grantor, which is not accurate. 

These discrepancies are a result of my identity being used during the time I was a victim of XXXX. I have taken the necessary steps to file disputes under 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which mandates that adverse information resulting from human XXXX  must be blocked within four business days once proper documentation is submitted. I provided each credit bureau with an FTC report as well as details of the accounts that were incorrectly reported.

Despite this, I am concerned that the credit reporting agencies may not act in compliance with the law. I am requesting that the CFPB assist in ensuring my rights are fully upheld under the FCRA and that the necessary corrections are made to my credit reports without delay. 

I kindly ask that the CFPB intervene to ensure these inaccuracies are removed promptly and that the credit bureaus abide by their obligations under federal law. This fraudulent information continues to harm my credit standing, and I request that my complaint be prioritized given the circumstances. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Complaint narrative:
Dear Equifax and CFPB, I am writing to bring to your immediate attention the misleading, outdated, unverified, and inaccurate information reported on my credit report regarding the account referenced below. This erroneous data is not only damaging my credit profile but is also causing me significant emotional and financial distress. 

**Account Details : ** - **Account Type : ** Installment - **XXXX XXXX : ** XXXX - **Account Status : ** Derogatory - **Monthly Payment : ** {$0.00} - **Date Opened : ** XX/XX/XXXX - **Balance : ** {$5800.00} - **Payment Status : ** Collection/Charge-off - **Last Reported : ** XX/XX/XXXX The inaccuracies are evident. The account status is flagged as " Derogatory, '' yet the balance and payment history are outdated and misrepresented. There are also discrepancies in the reported amounts and dates that do not align with my records. As a consumer, I have the right to accurate and fair reporting under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which mandates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. 

Additionally, 15 U.S.C. 1681i provides me the right to dispute incomplete or inaccurate information, obligating you to investigate and correct these discrepancies within a reasonable timeframe. Given the nature of these inaccuracies, I kindly request the immediate blocking and deletion of this account from my credit report. The presence of this misleading information is not only a violation of my consumer rights but also a defamation of my character, impacting my ability to secure credit and financial opportunities. 

I urge both Equifax and the CFPB to take this matter seriously and to act swiftly. I expect a prompt resolution to this issue and will not hesitate to escalate my complaint if necessary. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this critical matter. I look forward to your prompt response confirming the actions taken to rectify these inaccuracies.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> I made a mistake and paid someone elses ticket at a parking garage for a total of {$57.00}. When I left the garage the garage manager sent me a text notifying me that I did not pay for my ticket I told him I did and sent him proof. The proof was considered as the other persons ticket which I told him hey I realized I paid someone elses. He said that he would speak with the main office to have them make the correct. A week or so went by and no response from the main office. I emailed the mail office and they see my transaction but its not tied to the ticket for my car. They never make any attempt to resolve this. I offered them solutions which they never responded. I got my bank involved and advised them I paid the incorrect amount and provided proof of the rates and discounts listed at the garage. They advised me I needed a receipt. I sent another email to the garage who never answered me back. My bank denies my claim after I told them Im not getting a response they then tell me I filed the claim incorrect and I would need to file again. I am unable to because I already opened a claim and that they denied. 

The early bird rate for this garage is {$35.00} until XXXX as long as you never before XXXX or XXXX I believe. I have a 10 % discount that I tend to use which brings the price down to {$31.00} every weekday for me that price is visible on my statement for every weekday. 

I also enter this garage between the times of XXXX and XXXX and I check out around XXXX I will include multiple tickets to show the check in time
