Complaint narrative:
I, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, am verifying that I, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, am mailing out this information with my wet signature. In doing so, this plus my SSN and I.D is enough proof of validation. I have noticed inaccuracies on my consumer report. It is extremely urgent that you remove any addresses that are not the one listed below. I have already sent mail out and it has been over 30 DAYS before I received a response which now means the credit reporting agency is now in VIOLATION of my consumer financial rights! Second, the F.C.R.A states, Section 607. Compliance and Procedures [ 15 U.S.C 1681e ] ( b ) Accuracy of report, the CRA must provide me with a copy of my consumer report at 100 % accuracy at all times! These addresses and old personal information do not belong to me and are inaccurate therefore violating my consumer rights. Lastly, F.C.R.A says, Section 609. Disclosures to consumers [ 15 U.S.C. 1681g ] Every consumer reporting agency shall, upon request, and subject to 610 ( a ) ( 1 ) [ 1681h ], clearly and accurately disclose to the consumer.

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
The presence of a derogatory rating on my account is deeply concerning to me. I am worried about the impact it may have on my credit, as it has already resulted in the denial of a recent loan application and an increase in the interest rates on my existing credit accounts. I want to emphasize the significant financial and emotional distress this negative rating has caused me and will continue to cause until it is resolved.

Transunion is reporting my information and my brother 's information under the same social security number. I have tried to contact them many times and was told that I do not have a social security number. I called and requested a copy of my credit report because I am not able to receive this information online. I received the credit report in the mail, the report contains my name with my information, my brother 's name with his information and the social security number belongs to my brother. I called transunion again, was told I do not have a credit history, mu social security number does not exist. I asked to speak with a supervisor and was told the called can not be transferred, I would get a call back in 7 to 10 business days. I have been trying to get this issue resolved for 3 weeks with no success. this is a time sensitive issue and it has been preventing me from opening accounts. I have received denials because of this mixed up and needs it resolved as soon as possible

Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I deposited {$10000.00} to Citizens Access savings account on XX/XX/2023. A few days later, I try to move more money into the account, to no avail. I call them and the customer service informed me that the bank no longer wanted to do business with me. He gave me no reason why. But I no longer could deposit or take out money from the account. He said the account would close in a few days and the money would automatically go back into the account it came from. Nothing happens, I do not get my money back so a few weeks later I call again, the guy says I have to wait a little longer but it will close and the money will be transferred. Again, no action is taken on their part. I called last week around XX/XX/XXXX and spoke to someone named XXXX who said my account was in the Frauds department ( no idea why its in the frauds department now! ) and theyre going over my account, she said she would put a note in my account to expedite the process. I call again yesterday ( XX/XX/2023 ) the lady I spoke to said they need proof of the bank account where the money came from before they can give me my money back. I fax them a copy of my statement. I am just beyond frustrated of not having access to my emergency fund for over 2 months. This must be an illegal practice to have my money held hostage like this.

I receive notification from court that I was being sued for credit card debt that was purchased by collection agency. They said that I bought sent over {$3000.00} at XXXX for earrings. I did have a XXXX credit card but I never used it and assumed the account was closed. I sent in a response back in 2020 that I disputed the debt and never heard anything back. I also disputed the debt on my credit report and it was removed. In XXXX of this year I received a notification from my job about possible garnishments. Apparently, there have been multiple hearings that I was not notified about to be able to defend my side. When I contacted the collection agency, they keep saying they are gon na send me information from the XXXX but all they sent was a statement.

Complaint narrative:
Hi. My name is XXXX XXXX. 
A few months ago our property management " XXXX XXXX '' decided to report our rental payments to credit bureaus, which I never signed up for and that clause was never on our lease in the first place. 
My roommate XXXX. hasn't paid rent for four months, and for some reason this affected MY credit score.We are not a family with XXXX, I am not her guarantor, we have got all our names of the lease separately, all of us had undergone separate credit check upon moving it, and now management is making me accountable for her late payments? Management chose her and approved her when she moved in, I have nothing to do with it. 
Also, they NEVER informed us late payments would affect credit score of everyone living in the apartment. 

I always pay on time, ALWAYS. I've built a perfect credit score of about 750. Now it went down by XXXX points because of that. This is an absolute absurd and technically my personal data infringement. Ive been meticulously building my credit score, Ive put real hard work in it. This error should be taken off from my credit report because its not associated with me in any way. 

I'm attaching evidence our rent payments for the past few months from which you can see I have always paid on time. 

Please assist.
