Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I previously disputed XXXXXXXX XXXX account ( XXXX ) due to identity theft and submitted supporting documentation and an Identity Theft affidavit. An investigation was conducted resulting in both disputed accounts being deleted. However, the XXXXXXXX XXXX account XXXX has been reinserted into my credit report.

( iii ) Additional information As part of, or in addition to, the notice under clause ( ii ), a consumer reporting agency shall provide to a consumer in writing not later than 5 business days after the date of the reinsertion ( I ) a statement that the disputed information has been reinserted ; ( II ) the business name and address of any furnisher of information contacted and the telephone number of such furnisher, if reasonably available, or of any furnisher of information that contacted the consumer reporting agency, in connection with the reinsertion of such information.

Company: Amsher Collection Services, Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
am hereby requesting that you confirm the fact that I owe this debt as required by any applicable state and federal laws. Please contact the creditor to obtain verification. 

In addition, under the provisions of state and federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), and related consumer statutes, I am hereby instructing you to cease collection of the debt while efforts are made to obtain verification. Until you resolve this error with the creditor, you should neither contact me nor anyone else except the creditor about this collection. 

Furthermore, any reporting of this matter to credit reporting agencies is premature. Until you have investigated my dispute, you should not relay negative information to a credit reporting agency. If negative information has already been reported, you must notify the agency to remove said report until the investigative process is over so that my credit report remains accurate, or at the very least, my credit report should be updated to reflect my dispute. 

Your next contact with me should be to either notice that the creditor has failed to provide verification of the debt and that the matter has been closed or that you believe that this debt is valid and are providing proof of my responsibility. If the former, please confirm that I am not being held responsible for the debt in writing and also that if the account has already been noted on my credit report, that you will contact the bureau ( s ) in question to have the account removed. If the latter, I expect that you will provide me with an explanation as to why you have decided not to remove this account from collections and a copy of all documents relevant to the debt such as the application, bills, records of communications and payments, and any other data that indicates my responsibility. 

I am instructing you not to contact any third parties such as my employer, neighbors, friends or family members. In addition, you may not contact me by phone at work or at my home about this collection activity. All future correspondence should be sent to me in writing. 

Please acknowledge that you have received this notice within 14 days.

After speaking with representatives from Equifax, they could not explain why the collection remained on our reports.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have had a Wells Fargo checking account for over 40 years. Most recently, it has been a Wells Fargo Prime checking account, which charges a {$25.00} per month fee unless {$20000.00} in qualifying balances are maintained. A few months ago, I got a notice from Wells Fargo that my account was being changed to a Premier checking account. The Premier checking account charges {$35.00} per month unless {$250000.00} in qualifying monthly balances are maintained. I have always maintained adequate balances to qualify for the fee waiver at the {$20000.00} level, but could not possibly maintain balances of {$250000.00}. I should also add that the benefits to the customer for this higher level of fees are insignificant. 

Wells Fargo did not seek my approval in making the change, and did not offer guidance of what I should do if I did not want to accept the change. I had to figure it out and initiate action in order to keep the product I had chosen and been satisfied with for many years.
