Complaint narrative:
Consumer Name : ( XXXX XXXX ), Consumer Social Security Number : ( XXXX ), Consumer Date of Birth : ( XX/XX/year>XXXX  ), Contents of Complaint : This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you, the TransUnion, Experian, Equifax credit reporting agency , block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint. This fraudulent, inaccurate, and false information consists of items will be attached. Ive made several attempts to this company to stop reporting inaccurate information on my credit report, they refuse to do so and its causing me a world of trouble and stress. They did not complete a Social Security Form 3288 ( XXXX ), which is required for permissible purpose under FCRA. This raises serious concerns about the legitimacy of the information reported, as well as the adherence to privacy regulations. I obtained my credit report it is reporting numerous inaccurate negative accounts. This has not only damaged my right to extend credit but it has made loose hope and trust within the banking system. I have been denied credit cards home loans because of this and my character has not only been defamed but my mental and physical health have suffered greatly. There is no law that says a consumer reporting agency MUST furnish information about a consumer which is why congress made it very clear that experian, transunion, equifax ASSUMED this VITAL role pursuant to 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 3 ). Also, Experian, transition, equifax failed to be fair and respect my privacy according to 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ). I am requesting valid proof and documentation that these negative items were investigated fairly and properly. Experian, Transunion, and Equifax is in violation of several federal laws including responsibility they have to protect my privacy. Im giving experian the opportunity to make this matter right by way of the following.REMOVE ACCOUNTS, REMOVE LATE PAYMENTS, REMOVE INQUIRIES, REMOVE INACCURATE PERSONAL INFORMATION, I kindly urge the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to investigate and facilitate the removal of these unauthorized inquiries, inaccurate personal information, late payments, and bankruptcy from my credit report. This action is crucial to restore the accuracy of my credit information and safeguard my financial standing. Equifax date breach settlement pending.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX I was eligible for XXXX XXXX for low income people at a rate of $ XXXX subsidized by a Federal grant called XXXX XXXX I wasnt told that the modem was rented for {$0.00} per month, assuming them that this was equipment belonging ro me and paid for by the subsidy. There was never any communication specifically stipulating either scenario. They shut off the account XXXXXXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX and allowed a $ XXXX  day return of equipment window, which I returned to them in the prepaid shipping label box sent to me by XXXX XXXX XXXX. They claim I owe them {$150.00} for non returned equipment. Because I previously had XXXX XXXX before the subsidy was offered, its possible I returned the wrong modem as they looked identical in appearance and a serial number for the device requested was never specified. I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX and they refuse to accept the return of the equipment that I possibly may be in possession of as I had 2 and XXXX have returned the wrong one but within the 90 day window allowed. I spoke with their accounting department and they put me on hold in order to provide me their attorneys phone number. The call was disconnected by them while I was on hod on all three attempts to gain clarity on whether they sold the debt or wrote it off as a loss, or did both in violation of GAPP Laws.

Complaint narrative:
I am a title coordinator with XXXX XXXX, an auction company located in XXXX, North Dakota. In early XXXX of XXXX, we sold a XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for XXXX XXXX XXXX on auction. 

While attempting to get a title for this XXXX, we discovered that the original seller had traded it in to our seller but there is an existing lien with the Capital One power sports team. We have been attempting to get this lien release from Capital One but have not had any luck reaching the correct department. The auto lien department is deferring to the XXXX XXXX XXXX, however, our seller, XXXX, was told that department no longer exists. The phone numbers we have been provided for the power sports team are not valid or take us to the customer service line which is unhelpful due to this lien not being an active account. 

XXXX and I have both called, emailed, faxed numerous times to get this resolved. All we need is a lien release or a letter on Capital One letter head, signed by a representative stating that : " Capital One NA no longer has a security interest in this asset : a XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX : XXXX ''. I also filed several complaints with the customer service department to no avail. I have even searched for and emailed several of their leadership team members with no response or assistance. 

We are extremely frustrated with the lack of closure to this matter and can not understand why it is so difficult to reach someone who can help. 

Any attention you can give to this matter is greatly appreciated, thank you for your time and understanding.
