Complaint narrative:
I opened a Loan with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX/XXXX/XXXX for a used XXXX Paid in full never late and it reports to XXXX and XXXX XXXX  but Equifax removed it along with other positive items from my credit report only to report negative collection items with around 19 inquiries due to identity theft. According to the FCRA the XXXX XXXX XXXX Auto loan needs to be reporting and the collection medical bills along with the inquiries need to be blocked since I filed an Identity Theft report and my file is being improperly handled by Equifax office of consumer affairs.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
Nuisance security calls, blocked credit card accounts, and blocked security emails are problems I do not want from my credit card issuers. Citicard has failed in all of these areas. I do not want to waste my time answering questions about potential fraudulent {$10.00} charges. I do not want to have telephone conversations under intermittent holds and speaker phones. I do not want my credit card to be limited by potential fraud charges which Citicard will not identify to me. We apologize for any inconvenience, but to protect your account, further charges may be limited until you have contacted our Customer Service Department. <P/>My emails under the Secure Message Center a safe convenient way to contact us about your account. Here you can send, receive and update messages securely to get answers about your account. NOT. My emails have now been blocked. ( See attachment ) My other card issuers do not present these problems. They do not use security as an excuse for poor performance and poor procedures.

Company: UNITED SERVICES AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
During the week ofXX/XX/XXXX, I reached a settlement on the two credit card accounts I have with USAA. OnXX/XX/XXXX, I paid off both credit card accounts with USAA for the settlement amounts, ending in XXXX for {$560.00} and XXXX for {$4400.00}. USAA has reflected the payments I made to the 3 credit  bureaus XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, but refused to report the accounts paid in full and the remaining balance is posted as due and owing. I contacted USAA on multiple occasions and was told I would be receiving a fax, which never occurred. On the most recent call, I was told the fax would take 10 days from XX/XX/XXXX which is an unreasonable length of time ( over 21 days since payoff, if it is ever sent ). I have previously exhausted the dispute process with the credit bureaus and since no letter was provided by USAA I am unable to provide written proof of the settlement. Verbally, USAA acknowledges a settlement was reached and the account was paid. However, they refuse to simply put it in writing on a brief document and provide it to the consumer, and have not updated the accounts as settled with the three credit bureaus. They state it will take 2 or 3 MONTHS to report the settlement! I feel USAA is intentionally delaying since they have received their payments, and this is unfair to the consumer. I paid promptly upon settlement, USAA needs to demonstrate the settlement promptly in writing and with the three credit bureaus. I have attached a copy of my triple bureau credit report which reflects the USAA accounts that are incorrectly reported.

Company: Valley Collection Service, LLC
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
Valley Collection Services ( VCS ) and I have reached settlement however, VCS wants payment prior to providing a written agreement regarding the settlement. A 'paid in full ' and a 'payment agreement 'are two different letters. I will not make any payments unless a written document explicitly indicates that a PENDING {$90.00} payment will settle the account in full as agreed upon. Once a payment is made then a 'paid in full ' letter can be distributed. The arbitration terms are with XXXX XXXX XXXX, but Valley Collection Services is what is reflecting on my credit report. If I can not receive a pending agreement letter indicating the {$90.00} will settle the account, I will take further action as VCS has acknowledged an agreement was made through a Better Business Bureau complaint. I will not make a payment then receive a letter after-the-fact, as I have no clue if the letter will comply to what was agreed upon. I am not making 'payments ' toward any balances. This is a 'settlement ' payment. The service was only performed once for {$90.00} while I was not home.

Company: BOEING EMPLOYEES' CREDIT UNION
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
What happened? In XX/XX/XXXX I settled 5 charge off accounts with Boeing Employees Credit Union. We are in agreement that the accounts are paid in full and paid as agreed. I have included a settlement letter from BECU that confirms this. A 6th account was settled in XX/XX/XXXX, letter attached. All 6 accounts appear on the included XXXX Credit Report, with red boxes marking the items described herein on pages 6-9 of the credit report. BECU stopped reporting the payment history on each of the accounts marked in red boxes in XX/XX/XXXX, but started reporting derogatory payment history anew, when I settled the accounts. This inaccurately reflects my payment history and RE-AGES my account in violation of the FCRA because it shows a recent delinquency. The attached letter confirms these accounts are PAID AS AGREED. Thus, the derogatory payment history must be deleted in accordance in the FCRA. The new reporting of derogatory information results in a reduction in my credit score. When I paid the accounts off, instead of an increase in my score, I received a DECREASE in my score due to recent delinquencies when BECU suddenly began reporting them. If BECU fails to delete the payment history, its only other option is to update the entire history as derogatory beginning when the first payment was missed for each account. Additionally, BECU continues to report 'Creditor can not locate individual ' which is false, as shows on page 9 of the XXXX credit report, marked in red. BECU has been in regular contact with me since XX/XX/XXXX, as proven by the attached letter confirming my settlements. I have twice tried to get them to remove this derogatory description using the dispute process, and each time they have 'verified ' it as accurate. This is clearly erroneous. I have contested these accounts with XXXX and they received 'verification ' from BECU that the accounts were reported accurately. As proven herein and by the attached, BECU 's XXXX reporting remains inaccurate. Having exhausted the dispute process with the XXXX credit bureau, I am seeking resolution via the CFPB as a next step.
