Issue: Trouble using your card — Credit card company won't increase or decrease your credit limit
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
Last XXXX ( XXXX ) my American Express credit card limit suddenly and unexpectedly lowered from {$7500.00} to {$970.00}. When I called about the error they said it was because I had a " missed payment on another account '' which couldn't be the reason because I hadn't had a missed payment since XXXX - and the account with the missed payment was paid off and closed. They told me I could try and increase my limit again in the future, and it's been a year now and I'm still not able to. There is no longer an option for me to request a credit limit increase. 
I worked so hard to build my credit and address any mistakes when I was younger and this really hit my credit score hard and seemed completely unjustified since there hadn't been a change to my credit in years.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Over the course of a year, I have been trying to get a fraudulent account removed from my credit report with XXXX XXXX XXXX and Equifax Information Services. A year ago when I first saw the fraudulent account, I wrote to XXXX, Equifax XXXX XXXX right away. XXXX complied by removing the account. XXXX and Equifax removed the account but then put the account back on my report which later I found out are illegal by 15 USC 1681i ( a ). 

Since then I have been sending letters to Equifax XXXX XXXX requesting the XXXX XXXX  account to be removed. They have refused to do so. I have sent multiple letters and filed multiple FTC reports. They always respond by saying that they conducted research and this account is mine but they never show me proof of their research. I've requested they explain their process and show proof but they never do. It's becoming frustrating because I get the same generic template response as if a computer makes the decision and not even a real person looks into it. 

They have neglected 15 USC 1681i ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ) by not showing a detailed description of the procedure used to determine the accuracy and completeness of the information. 

I've even sent multiple Affidavits of Truths alongside my letters and FTC reports but they have never replied to my Affidavits. 

Both Equifax XXXX XXXX have had multiple court cases against them in the past regarding the same problems I am facing right now. At this point, I've hit a dead end and have no idea who I can rely on for accurate information or help regarding this issue. 

My recent FTC report number was : XXXX I pray and hope that whoever looks over my report at CFPB can help and make these reporting agencies fix this issue that has been a weight on my shoulder and giant wall in my finances. 

Thank you
