Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against Barclays Bank regarding their denial of my application for a XXXX Airline XXXX XXXX MasterCard based on inaccurate information provided by their collections office. This issue has significantly impacted my creditworthiness and my ability to secure credit. 

Upon applying for the XXXX Airline XXXX XXXX MasterCard, I was informed that my application was denied due to a reported delinquency on an XXXX credit card from 2003. I categorically state that this account is not mine. Moreover, even if it were, the statute of limitations would have rendered this account ineligible to appear on my credit report. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 USC 1681i, I am entitled to a fair and accurate credit report. This federal law mandates that all information on my credit reports be accurate and verifiable. The continued presence of this erroneous account on my credit report constitutes a clear violation of this mandate and has adversely affected my creditworthiness. 

Furthermore, under 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ), no consumer reporting agency may include in a consumer report any adverse item of information that is more than seven years old, other than records of convictions of crimes. The alleged delinquency from 2003 clearly falls outside this permissible reporting period. 

In light of these provisions, I am requesting the immediate deletion of this false account from Barclays Bank 's records and my credit report. Failure to rectify this situation promptly will compel me to take legal action to enforce my rights under the FCRA. 

I trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will investigate this matter and ensure that Barclays Bank complies with the legal requirements for maintaining accurate credit reports. I appreciate your attention to this urgent matter and look forward to your prompt response. 

Thank you for your assistance. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

I reviewed my consumer reports and I noticed that I had 4 late payments on an account that I was never late for. The consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with the maximum accuracy. I have never been late on payments for this account that I have included a screenshot inside this complaint on dates of ( XXXX, XXXX and XXXX, XX/XX/2024 ). Please investigate and provide proof with statements showing that these payments were late. If proof can't be provided I demand these payments be updated to paid as agreed on time as they should be due to the fact that I was never late. Thanks! Please see screenshot attached

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Unauthorized Credit Reporting and Demand for Resolution Reference to Federal and XXXX XXXX Laws Dear XXXX, I am writing to address a blatant violation regarding the unauthorized reporting of information to my credit report, as confirmed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under Sections 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), 1681c ( a ) ( 2 ), and 1681s-2 ( a ), and the relevant identity fraud laws in XXXX XXXX. 

It has unequivocally come to my attention that XXXX has engaged in unauthorized reporting to my credit report without obtaining my explicit consent. Federal law, as outlined in the FCRA, explicitly mandates that the consent of the consumer is a non-negotiable requirement for such reporting activities under Section 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ). 

In addition to federal law, Missouri state law, particularly as applied within XXXX XXXX, underscores the necessity of consumer consent for credit reporting. Identity fraud laws in XXXX XXXX highlight the severity of unauthorized access and misuse of personal information, which parallels the protections afforded under the FCRA. 

I assert with unwavering certainty that I have not provided consent for XXXX to report any information to my credit report. This undeniable lack of explicit permission constitutes a blatant violation of my rights, resulting in potential damage to my creditworthiness and an unequivocal disregard for federal and state laws. 

I demand, with the utmost certainty, that XXXX immediately ceases any further reporting of information to my credit report without obtaining my explicit consent, as mandated by Section 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) of the FCRA. Failure to comply within the stipulated 30-day timeframe will be viewed as willful noncompliance, subject to penalties under applicable laws, including identity fraud laws specific to XXXX XXXX XXXX 

I emphasize that obtaining consent is not a discretionary choice but a legal obligation under these specific sections of the FCRA and identity fraud laws. This is not a negotiation ; it is a demand for compliance with both federal and XXXX XXXX regulations, protecting consumers like myself from unauthorized and damaging credit reporting. 

I anticipate your immediate attention to this matter and expect that XXXX will promptly rectify these egregious violations, respecting my rights under federal and state laws. 

Done in good faith. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to address the presence of unfamiliar accounts on my credit report, which I suspect may be the result of identity theft, as I have not authorized them. Despite bringing this matter to your attention previously, these accounts remain on my report. I urgently request that they be removed at the earliest convenience. 

The inclusion of these unauthorized accounts has caused considerable stress and does not accurately reflect my credit history or financial responsibilities. Dealing with the repercussions has been challenging, and if a resolution can not be reached promptly, I am prepared to take legal action to protect my rights and seek a resolution. 

These inaccuracies on my credit report pose a significant obstacle to achieving important financial goals, such as purchasing a home and providing for my family. I sincerely hope that we can swiftly resolve this issue to avoid further disruption. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
