Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15. U. S. C. 1681c-2 ) that you, the credit reporting agencys block the information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft, and fraud within four business days of you receiving this complaint. This fraudulent, inaccurate and false information consist of personal credit card accounts, auto loans, personal loans and open end unsecured consumer accounts. These accounts have resulted in several fraudulent hard inquiries and fraudulent collections appearing on my consumer FICO credit report. Ive attached a list of the hard inquiries in question as well as a copy of the consumer FICO credit report maintained by you which shows the said fraudulent items. I do not recognize these accounts, collections and hard inquiries as reported. The aforementioned accounts, collections and hard inquiries appearing on my consumer credit report maintained by you were not opened, made or initiated by me. All of the said accounts, collections and hard inquiries are a result of identity theft, and fraud. I have attached a copy of the FTC identity theft criminal complaint as proof from the US federal trade commission that all of the aforementioned, consumer credit accounts, collections and hard inquiries are in fact a result of identity, theft, and fraud.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a lawful payment instrument in full satisfaction of a vehicle account with Bank of America, N.A., for a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX registered under XXXX XXXX XXXX. The payment was mailed and delivered by XX/XX/XXXX, and officially posted by the bank on XX/XX/XXXX. I received confirmation that the account had been paid in full and my online access to the account was terminatedindicating discharge. On XX/XX/XXXX, Bank of America reactivated the account without legal cause and claimed that payment was due again. This action contradicts the earlier confirmation of satisfaction. The bank failed to return or dishonor the original payment instrument within the legal timeframe required under UCC 4-301 and 4-302, as well as Louisiana Revised Statutes 10:4-301 and 10:4-302. This reversal violates commercial statutes and contractual obligations. To date, the bank has not provided a lawful explanation, nor have they delivered the vehicle title or updated records to reflect the XXXX balance.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Im submitting this complaint because TransUnion continues to report an account from XXXX XXXX Bank ( Acct # : XXXX ) as charged-off, even though it hasnt had any activity since XX/XX/year>. The balance has stayed at {$64.00} for over five years, with no attempts to collect, no new updates, and no communication from the creditor.

Whats especially frustrating is that I exercised my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) more than 30 days ago by formally requesting full validation and documentation from XXXX. They never respondednot even a basic acknowledgment. That silence is not just dismissiveits a legal violation. If a debt cant be verified, it should not be reported. 

Despite this, TransUnion keeps reporting this account every month as a fresh charge-off. This isnt helping anyoneits just keeping me stuck with derogatory marks that are outdated, inaccurate, and damaging. Im trying to rebuild my financial life, and this account is standing in the way based on information that no one has proven to be legitimate. 

This ongoing reporting violates several key federal laws : 15 U.S.C. 1681g ( FCRA 609 ) : I have the right to see what information is on file and where it came frombut Ive received nothing.

15 U.S.C. 1681i ( FCRA 611 ) : If disputed information isnt verified within 30 days, it must be removed.

15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) : Credit reporting agencies must ensure the maximum possible accuracy of reported information.

15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) : A creditor can not knowingly report unverifiable or inaccurate data.

15 U.S.C. 1692g ( FDCPA 809 ) : Reporting or collection efforts without validation are prohibited.

Beyond the FCRA, this also potentially violates : Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, which requires data integrity when shared with third
parties.

Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), which demands clarity and transparency.

Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA, 12 U.S.C. 5531 ( c ) ), which prohibits deceptive practices. 

Case law supports this too : In XXXX XXXX TransUnion and XXXX v. XXXX XXXX, the courts clearly ruled that unverifiable information must be deleted and that credit bureaus must investigate meaningfullynot just rely on automated systems.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( XXXX U.S. Code XXXX ) says ( XXXX ) 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 TILA XXXX Code XXXX since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( XXXX ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( XXXX  ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Company: SELECT PORTFOLIO SERVICING, INC.

Complaint narrative:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to formally file a complaint against Select Portfolio Servicing ( SPS ) regarding serious issues with the servicing of the security insturment that I hold. 

After Hurricane Beryl, I was forced to repair my roof, which caused financial strain. As a result, I fell behind on my mortgage payments. I am still in the process of fixing my home from the major damage from Hurricane Beryl. However, in XX/XX/scrub>XXXX XXXX I paid the full delinquent amount that was communicated to me at that time. 

Despite this, SPS is now threatening to send the loan back into default and pursue foreclosure. They continue to call me excessivelyup to 3 to 5 times a weekand have sent agents to my home, leaving door hangers, despite clearly posted " No Trespassing '' signs. 

This harassment, combined with the threat of foreclosure, has caused me immense emotional distress. My mother passed away last year, followed by my aunt and most recently my cousin, which has compounded the toll on my mental health and stability. 

I respectfully request the CFPBs assistance in investigating SPSs practices and helping to ensure I am treated fairly under applicable mortgage servicing laws and consumer protections. 

https : XXXX XXXX  Thank you for your time and attention.
