Complaint narrative:
I have recently reviewed my consumer report and informed your agency XXXX XXXX, XXXXregarding several disputed items. However, despite this notification, the issue remains unresolved in a manner that is fair and equitable to me, as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Your agency has clearly refused to follow the law and honor my previous request. Therefore, I am requesting a reinvestigation and demanding that your agency explain your METHOD OF VERIFICATION in verifying these items, pursuant to 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ).

I have suffered XXXX XXXX  as a direct result of this matter, and I demand that this be resolved equitably, which has yet to be done.

Issue: Closing your account — Company closed your account
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
Synchrony closed my Verizon credit card account due to what they called high risk, despite no high balance at the time of closing nor having missed any payments on this card or any other card within at least the last 2 years. Upon asking why I was labeled as being high risk, the representatives said they could not elaborate. 

As this is the only card that earns Verizon rewards, which I use for our Verizon XXXX account, I asked about the decision being reconsidered and reopen the account. I was told that the account is closed and can not be reopened nor considered for appeal but may be reapplied for. To which I asked the rep whether this closure by the bank would be considered adverse to Synchrony when applying, to which the rep refused to answer. Although I could reapply, I have no comfort if they would require a hard pull to just deny regardless of my XXXX scores across multiple CRAs due to this previous forced closure. 

I would like to have clarification whether my account would be eligible for consideration solely on my financial history without consideration of this meritless, adverse action in the event that the account can't be reopened.

Company: MOHELA

Complaint narrative:
I have auto pay set up with Mohela, and every month they take my payment from my bank account and do not process the entire payment. Some loans show partial payments, but since XXXX I have had to call multiple times to argue that my credit payments have been made. They process the payment data before it would report to the credit bureau ( 90 days past due ). I am getting delinquent notifications, outstanding balance notices, but Mohela has my payment. They will not tell me anything other than the system just needs to process the payment but that should not lead to delinquency on my end. I am currently on hold for going on 45 minutes just to complain again. My interest is continuing to accrue because they will not post my payments. Currently, their system shows my XXXX payment was received, but their phone system says I am missing payments from XXXX Mohela will take my money but not apply it to the loans as they are required to do.

Complaint narrative:
Request for Removal of Inaccurate Late Payments from Credit Report To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to dispute and request the immediate removal of inaccurate late payments listed on my credit report. Pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 USC 1666 ( b ), and the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I am entitled to have accurate information reported on my credit file. The late payments in question are inaccurately reported on my credit file and do not reflect my payment history accurately. I assert that I have never been late on any payments, as I have always been enrolled in autopay for all my accounts. The fact that a bill may have been sent to my address does not constitute proof of a late payment. The reporting of these inaccurate late payments violates my rights under the FCRA, as they do not reflect my true creditworthiness. Additionally, the reporting of false late payments may constitute a violation of the FDCPA, as it misrepresents the status\ of my accounts : XXXX XXXX Account XXXX date late payment XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Furthermore, the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) requires accurate reporting of credit information to ensure consumers are treated fairly and have access to credit based on accurate data. I demand that all late payments currently reported on my credit file be updated to reflect 100 % on-time payments, as per my true payment history. Failure to do so constitutes a violation of my rights under the FCRA and other consumer protection laws. I request that you investigate this matter promptly and provide me with written documentation of the removal of these inaccurate late payments from my credit report within 30 days.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Unauthorized Credit Reporting and Demand for Resolution Reference to Federal and XXXX Laws Dear MRS BPO LLC I am writing to address blatant violation regarding the unauthorized reporting of information to my credit report, as confirmed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under Sections XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ), XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ), and XXXX ( a ), the XXXX XXXX XXXX under Sections XXXX and XXXX, and identity fraud laws, specifically XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
It has unequivocally come to my attention that XXXX XXXX XXXX has already engaged in unauthorized reporting to my credit report without obtaining my explicit consent. Federal law, as outlined in the FCRA, explicitly mandates that the consent of the consumer is a non-negotiable requirement for such reporting activities under Section XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ). 

In addition to federal law, XXXX state law, specifically XXXX XXXX of the XXXX XXXX XXXX, emphasizes the necessity of consumer consent for credit reporting. Furthermore, Section XXXX of the XXXX XXXX XXXX establishes clear guidelines for the fair reporting of consumer credit information. Simultaneously, identity fraud laws, such as XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, underscore the severity of unauthorized access and misuse of personal information. 
I assert with unwavering certainty that I have not provided consent for XXXX XXXX XXXX to report any information to my credit report. This undeniable lack of explicit permission constitutes a blatant violation of my rights, resulting in potential damage to my creditworthiness and an unequivocal disregard for federal and state laws. 
I demand, with the utmost certainty, that MRS BPO LLC immediately ceases any further reporting of information to my credit report without obtaining my explicit consent, as mandated by Section XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ) of the FCRA and Sections XXXX and XXXX of the XXXX XXXX XXXX. Failure to comply within the stipulated XXXX timeframe will be viewed as willful noncompliance, subject to penalties under applicable laws, including identity fraud laws. 
I emphasize that obtaining consent is not a discretionary choice but a legal obligation under these specific sections of the FCRAXXXX XXXX state law, and identity fraud laws. This is not a negotiation ; it is a demand for compliance with both federal and state regulations, protecting consumers like myself from unauthorized and damaging credit reporting. 
I anticipate your immediate attention to this matter and expect that MRS BPO LLC will promptly rectify these egregious violations, respecting my rights under federal and state laws. 

XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint to XACTUS regarding unauthorized inquiries reflected in my credit report. Upon reviewing my credit file, I noticed that several companies have accessed my credit report without my permission. These inquiries were made without my knowledge or consent, and I did not authorize any of these companies to review my credit history. As a result, I believe that my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) have been violated, specifically the provision that requires a company to have a permissible purpose before accessing my credit information. I respectfully request an immediate investigation into these unauthorized inquiries and that the XACTUS will remove them from my report. I am also requesting that the companies responsible for these unauthorized inquiries provide documentation showing that they had the required consent or permissible purpose to access my credit file. I trust that your agency will take the necessary steps to address this violation and ensure my credit report is corrected in accordance with the FCRA.
