Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
XXXX back in sent me a pre approved credit card.I was excited trying to build credit. But, I never used it. So XXXX closes the account which tarnishes my credit for 10 years. They are purchased or doing their business with a new bank and upon pulling my credit scores this is when I noticed that XXXX claims that after they closed my account they issued me two new cards. Neither of which I ever received neither have I activated and neither have I used. After some time passes I notices they closed these accounts two leaving two more checks on my credit. So in total I have had three accounts and all three closed for not using the card. The first card arrived and when I phoned to talk about it nobody told me at XXXX if you dont use it we will close your account and report you to all three credit bureaus. Well not just closed once but three times. I never asked for any card to be sent. I dont feel I should have to be sitting with three closed XXXX cards that make my credit scores lower it makes me look like I am a credit risk and all because I never asked for them the first acct # XXXX XXXX yr XXXX mo closed for non use card # XXXX # XXXX XXXX yrs and 6 month card # XXXX # XXXX XXXX yrs 7 months. I have only ever been sent the first card I dont know what the other two are. I would like them to be removed and not tarnish my credit for 10 years. I have never owed any money to XXXX. And not using their card or three should not be a punishment.

I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction and frustration regarding the lack of response and cooperation from the creditors in validating the debt associated with the accounts listed below. This matter is of utmost urgency, and your blatant disregard for providing the necessary documentation is unacceptable. Despite my repeated attempts to seek validation of this debt, your organization has failed to provide any satisfactory response. What is particularly distressing is that, upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered that this account is erroneously marked as a charged-off account with an outstanding balance. This misinformation is damaging to my financial standing and creditworthiness. BANK OF AMERICA , N.A . XXXX. I withhold my consent for electronic communication and explicitly request that all responses be conveyed in written form through the United States Postal Service ( XXXX ). I am the primary complainant in this matter, and I hereby grant full authority to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) to thoroughly investigate and address this claim.

Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Goldman Sachs 's AppleCard. Is it a scam? In the number of times that I've applied for this card, the application comes back declined due to ineligibility. I've read the eligibility requirements and found that I've met eligibility requirements the whole time to apply and reapply if I believed there was an error. Then it gives me another denial reason of, " you've applied a number of times and we can not verify your information at this time. '' I've talked with their customer service representatives just to have them state previous reasons for denial, different from the reasons I receive on my end. I ask them if they needed my assistance in verifying information required in order to possibly receive a more favorable decision, they said it has something to do with the way the information is presented on my application. My application is prefilled for me through my phone 's memory and do not see any mistakes so how am I ineligible or unverifiable when my credit is better than it was upon prior approval? Credit score is XXXX XXXX.
