Complaint narrative:
I sent my Affidavits in a month ago on XX/XX/2023 along with my police report stating that the accounts on my report was Fraudulent and Nothing was Removed and According to Section 623 A 6 its Against the Law to Report Fraudulent information after being informed that it was Fraudulent. The Representative on the Phone told me that they Have Received my Paperwork so Basically it All was Ignored. All the other Credit Reporting Agencies have Deleted All of These Accounts from my Reports so I Don't understand why Transunion is giving me such a Hard Time removing Fraudulent Accounts from my Report. I also was Charged {$32.00} to see my Credit Report that is Suppose to be Free.

Product: Debt collection — Medical debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Commenity Capital is trying to collect on a debt that I supposedly owe that is not mine. 

This debt is in the name of XXXX XXXX. My name is XXXX XXXX. 

I have contacted them on numerous occaisions via certified letter regarding this and they refuse to remove the bad debt from my credit reports. 

I've contact the credit bureaus and 1 out of 3 have removed this error but the other two so far have not. I have also contact the credit bureaus on numerous occaisions by certified letters. 

The debt in question is this Account : # XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Date Updated : XX/XX/XXXX Orginal Charge Off : {$2200.00} Credit Limit : {$2100.00} Pay Status : Sold, ChargeOff This debt is showing up on my credit reports, specifically XXXX and XXXX, XXXX removed it, and this has definately hindered my ability to get credit or apply for credit. In fact it has also caused me emotional harm. Being denied for credit because of someone else 's debt on your credit reports is simply awful! 

Also, this is a HIPAA Violation. To share someone's medical information with other people, or third parties like myself and the credit bureaus is definitely a legal matter and something I am looking into as I write this. 
My request is for Commenity Capital to remove all of these bad debt entries from every single one of my credit reports including, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX and all the others. I don't know how far this has gone but it has tainted my reputation and reduced my credit score by well over XXXX points maybe more!

Company: National Credit Adjusters, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I did not give NATIONAL CREDIT ADJUSTERS XXXX the permission to furnish information on my consumer report non consent is identity theft. 15 USC 6802 prohibits disclosure of nonpublic personal information without the knowing and expressed consent of the consumer. As a financial institution they are not to disclose non public personal information to a third party unless such financial institution clearly & conspicuously discloses to the consumer in writing or electronic form or other form permitted by the regulation prescribed under section 6804 of this title that such information may be disclosed. I did not receive any of the 3 disclosures I just mentioned, which Ive discovered is against consumer law and a direct violation. 

NATIONAL CREDIT ADJUSTERS XXXX, XXXX and XXXX denied any inaccuracies but after further investigation I can confirm they are reporting inaccurate information on my consumer report which is a another violation under the FCRA 15 USC 1681.

USC 1681b states that consumer agencies can only furnish something in accordance with the written instruction of the consumer to whom it relates. I did not give NATIONAL CREDIT ADJUSTERS XXXX permission which is another violation. 

TILA 15 USC 1601 protects me as a consumer against inaccurate & unfair credit billing. As a consumer, I never signed an agreement to enter into a credit transaction with NATIONAL CREDIT ADJUSTERS XXXX yet they have reported that I opened an account on two different dates because my consumer report is incorrectly showing two different dates violating me even further. 

My complaint is also with XXXX and XXXX who are allowing NATIONAL CREDIT ADJUSTERS XXXX to report inaccurate information on my consumer report which is a violation under the FCRA 15 USC 1681.

USC 1681b states that consumer agencies can only furnish something in accordance with the written instruction of the consumer to whom it relates. I did not give XXXX or XXXX permission which is another violation on their behalf. Not only did I not give permission to furnish this information on my consumer report, the information is also incorrect which is a violation under 15 USC 1681b for those two violations under FCRA I am seeking {$2000.00} from XXXX and XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
Per my credit card reward plan, I am eligible to receive XXXX annual anniversary points ( equal to {$100.00} ). Per my discussion with customer representative at Capitalone, they agree I am eligible for XXXX points and I have received it in XX/XX/2023. However, I don't have any way to check whether I received it or not. So, I ask capitalone I can't trust on verbal confirmation based on my past experience with capitalone. I need evidence in writing either email or statement or any written confirmation that I have received it. Otherwise I won't be able to confirm whether I received those points or not. However, customer support representative and supervisor told me they can not provide any written evidence. So, basically I have to trust whatever they are telling me verbally on phone, which I can't based on history with capitalone. 

Even Capitalone statement for the month ( XX/XX/2023 ) doesn't so any information instead say due error no reward information is available for that month. So, All supervisor is telling me to accept verbal confirmation. Following is reference to my conversation with supervisor : XXXX
