Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX an collections account from XXXX XXXX XXXX for XXXX appeared on my credit report. I have disputed this account with Equifax multiple times once on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and again on XX/XX/XXXX every time it came back verified. How can it be verified when the information isnt accurate they have my first date of delinquency as XX/XX/XXXX but, the original creditor XXXX XXXX confirmed my first date of delinquency as XX/XX/XXXX. Even if you add 180 days from that date you still dont get XX/XX/XXXX witch means my rights were violated. So Im asking that the account be deleted three times the account came back verified but its inaccurate I never got any notice at all I had to go look and call for myself.

Product: Mortgage — Home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC)
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage — 
Company: U.S. BANCORP
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
US BANK - HELOC lending department, XXXX AZ XXXX After months of asking just one document at a time for our application, repeatedly asking for the same document after it was uploaded in their online system already. We received multiple alerts that our file will be closed in 5 days if we didn't submit the already uploaded documents. Our HELOC application was abruptly closed and we received a email saying we do not qualify for HELOC loans due to not being a GC holder or a US citizen. 

We have been in the states and hold a legal residential status and are eligible for loans/mortgages and credit lending for almost 15 years, never been denied a loan and our credit worthiness is exemplary. 

Strangely, we also have an EXISTING HELOC loan with the same bank and we were starting a new application for a better interest rate and adding an additional primary borrower on the HELOC. 

The agent made no attempt to clarify the legal status before carelessly closing the Application. After pointing out the issue personally to a local branch, no attempt was made by the bank to clarify the situation, address the complaint or even attempt a courtesy apology for inconvenience with some education on their guidelines for rejection of loan for my better understanding.

Complaint narrative:
Hello, Original Creditor Name XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ; ( CCS COLLECTIONS XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MA XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX ) Im shocked, surprised, stressed out both physically and mentally to find this medical collection in my credit without proper notice or even allow me to contest it. Its not mine! - Don't waste my time by partially responding to this demand. Therefore, I am demanding under my consumer rights that you send me ALL the following documents to me. Because if not now, then you will be forced to produce them to my attorney in the discovery phase of the lawsuit. So, to save yourself potentially paying my legal fees ( Which are ridiculously expensive ), I will just go ahead and order them now, so I can turn it over to him. 
Please provide me with the following : A signed and Notarized copy of the HIPPA release that allows you to access this alleged medical record What the money you say I owe is for Explain and show me how you calculated what you say I owe Provide me with copies of any papers that show I agreed to pay what you say I owe Provide a verification or copy of any judgment if applicable Identify the original creditor Prove the Statute of Limitations has not expired on this account Show me the you are licensed to collect in my state Provide me with your license numbers and Registered Agent or Agent of Service If your offices are able to provide real documentation as requested in the following Declaration, I will allow at least 15-days to investigate this information and during such time all collection activity must cease and desist. 
Also, during this validation time, if any action is taken which could be considered harmful to any of my credit reports, I will consult with my legal counsel for suit. This includes listing any information with a credit reporting agency that could be inaccurate or invalidated or verifying an account as accurate, when in fact there is no provided proof that it is accurate.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX is reporting an invalid collection they apparently bought from XXXX. 
Background : On XX/XX/2016 we purchased 3 XXXX phones that came with a {$300.00} gift card for each phone. We tried to redeem the cards at XXXX XXXX and were denied. We told XXXX about the situation. They told us to mail them the gift cards, and they would give us credit on your account. It was our understanding that our account would be cleared. Apparently they never applied the value of the gift cards, and charged us other fees and interest on the balance and are attempting to collect a debt that was not owed. They even sold the account to a collection agency which is dropping our scores and making it difficult to secure loans.
