Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
I was informed in XX/XX/XXXXthat my credit and information had been stolen. Someone used my information to apply for a XXXX account and opened up wireless lines with my social security number. I contacted XXXX wireless and they determined that it was fraud. They sent an email to me notifying me that the accounts would be closed and that they would let Equifax, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXXknow. They stated that it would take anywhere from 30 to 90 days. It has now been 90 days and the error still is showing with Equifax. I called them earlier today and they told me that there was nothing that they could do even if I submit a dispute, that it would have to be resolved with XXXX. I contacted XXXX wireless again and they informed me that everything was done properly and of the required information was provided to Equifax. There is now nothing that I can do since XXXX has sent everything over to Equifax that is needed. They will not do anything to help me out and so I am running out of options. I don not know what else to do.

Company: FIFTH THIRD FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/2019 we received an alert from a credit reporting app called XXXX XXXX that our mortgage company, Fifth Third Bank had deported our mortgage as being late. We have had our month for 29 months and have never missed a payment. We immediately stopped in a branch to speak with a representative. After sitting down for 30 minutes with a representative who had to call the corporate office we were told we would hear back from someone. 
In late XX/XX/2019 we received a letter from Fifth Thrid dated XX/XX/2019 stating they apologize for the error of a late or missing payment and claimed they would fix the error on our credit reports. My score dropped over 80pts as a result of the error and my husband 's score dropped over 50pts. We have still yet to see the error fixed on our reports and we have been waiting now over 60 days. We have been eager to refinance our mortgage but are unable to because of how low our scores are.

I have been disputing some items on my credit report consistently for almost six months now and I haven't received any results or response from Experian throughout this process. I'm really trying to progress forward in my life and there are items on my report that hinder this. I haven't received any response for them and it's frustrating because I can't get a home or even get jobs because of some of these accounts. Something needs to be done.

Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
Fraudulent application of payments. 


I took out a personal loan in XXXX XXXX and I enrolled in automatic payments. In XX/XX/XXXX, I made additional payments of {$200.00} but the principal balance showed the wrong balance. I also made another additional payment of {$500.00} and still the balance reflected wrong. 

When I noticed the errors in XX/XX/XXXX I made a call to discover bank to make a complaint, and they told me there was a problem with their system so it not did apply the automatic deductions to both principal and interest and they were going to fix it. 
In XX/XX/XXXX, nothing had been done, I made another call and they promised another review. Still in XX/XX/XXXX, the same problem was still occurring and I was prompted to make another follow up call. I was given the same lame excuse. I finally asked them to explain to me in writing what happened and also tell me how they are going to fix it. 
Fast forward XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX. I see the same problem, My principal balance has been static on the same amount for 6 month. I made the last call today and Informed that I will be filling a complaint with CFPB. 

My major problem with Discover personal loans department is that, Interest is computed based on the daily running balance. So for them to present me with a wrong running balance since XX/XX/XXXX and a static balance since XX/XX/XXXX means they are charging me more interest. They also never alerted me of the error even after discovering it, they never presented their explanation as requested in writing. 
This to me is kind of a fraudulent application and representation of the loan. 

It is for this reason that I am filling this complain to have it resolved. 

Thank you. 

Sincerely XXXX XXXX
