Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I'm not using any third party for this matter and represent myself by myself. I have filed a report with the Federal Trade Commission, which I have enclosed within this dispute package. My personal information was compromised, so as a result I got hard inquires on my report that I never authorized, I have not signed or applied to any of these creditors or companies who posted hard inquires on my report. Therefore, I have come to you, the credit reporting agencies to resolve these issues. I made an attempt to file a police report, but I was informed by my county that it did not constitute as an emergency, and that they would not file the report because I didnt have any information on the person who used my information, nor did I know how my information was obtained by this person. Inquiries that are made by someone else without my authorization is not a factual record of access to my credit file, it is a factual record of fraudulent activity, and it must be addressed as such. The reason that these inquiries are being disputed is because they were not made by me, and when I report this to you, it is your responsibility to investigate my claims, and when you can not prove that these inquiries were made by me, they must be removed from my credit file. It is not my responsibility to go directly to each creditor, the obligation lies at your feet because you are reporting inaccurate information within my credit report, and this violates the FCRA. It should be noted that an inquiry that was not made by me is not a factual record, just as a fraudulently opened account is not a factual record and not referred to the creditor to be disputed directly with them. The credit reporting agencies have attempted to address an inquiry as a factual record of file access, but if it was done through fraudulent means, it is not a factual record. As a consumer I should not be required to dispute each fraudulent inquiry directly with each company. These inquiries are the result of fraudulent activity and therefore inaccurate information in which the credit reporting agencies or the creditors can not verify, meaning that these inquiries are unverifiable information and must be deleted from out of my credit file. Hard inquiries bellow are result of fraud : XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX ; XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX ; XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX ; XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX ; XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Inquiry : XXXX XXXX, XXXX ; XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ; XXXX XXXX Inquiry : XXXX XXXX, XXXX ; XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX, XXXX ; XXXX XXXX Inquiry : XXXX XXXX, XXXX These items above should be removed from my report immediately.

Product: Vehicle loan or lease — Lease
Issue: Problems at the end of the loan or lease — Problem when attempting to purchase vehicle at the end of the lease
Company: U.S. BANCORP
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
At the end of my lease with US Bank, I went through the process of paying it off. I called to get the final payoff amount, which was {$25000.00}. The day I called and got the balance ( XX/XX/XXXX ), I went to my bank and withdrew the amount of {$25000.00} in a cashier 's check and overnighted the check to the address that was given to me. Within a few days the {$0.00} balance was reflected on my account and we were just waiting for the title to arrive. Then, on XX/XX/XXXX, US Bank withdrew the auto debit payment of {$340.00} after the vehicle had been paid off. I called multiple times to have this corrected and each time I was told there wasn't anything they could do. Finally, I filed a complaint with my personal bank, XXXX, and they said they would take care of it. We received a reimbursement for the {$340.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. Then we noticed on XX/XX/XXXX that the claim was reversed and we were charged yet again for the {$340.00}. I called US Bank again on XX/XX/XXXX to try to resolve this. They asked me to verify my address, which I did and they told me that was incorrect and that they could not help me unless I could physically go to a US bank. I attempted to explain to them that I changed my address with them on XX/XX/XXXX to the address I gave them. I tried to give a previous address but they said they could not accept it. I let them know that when I changed my address on XX/XX/XXXX with US Bank that I received a confirmation letter. I told them I could provide evidence of the address change and again I was met with, " I'm sorry, there is nothing we can do ''. I told them that I am currently living abroad and that going to a US Bank was not possible. I gave them our US mailing address but they still refused to refund the amount.

Complaint narrative:
Hello, About 5-6 months ago, I tried to cancel my card before the annual fee was issued in it. I contacted XXXX, and they closed the card. Not the account. I didnt have access to my online portal. Upon coming back from vacation, I noticed I had mail from XXXX saying I didnt pay. I was worried because I didnt wan na ruin my credit score. I instantly tried to go on my citi account online and pay even if it isnt my fault. But I didnt have a card anymore so I couldnt reset my password and make the payment. I contacted XXXX via the phone and the customer service rep told me not to close my card, he solicited me to keep my card and that Ill get a XXXX $ credit to use which will offset my XXXX $ balance. I said okay thats fair, and ordered a new card. I tried using the card and it got denied. I contacted XXXX again and yet again they confirmed I just need to use XXXX $ and the balance will clear. I tried using my card again and still nope. And this final time I spoke with XXXX just now, the guy was threatening to report me for refusing to pay my bill. They misinformed me multiple times and this is affecting my credit score. I dont know how to report them for constantly giving me different information but this has been exhausting and frustrating.
