Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally submit a complaint regarding the handling of inaccurate information on my credit report by the credit reporting agencies, despite my repeated efforts in dispute these errors. Despite multiple disputes filed with the bureau, they have failed to take appropriate action to update or delete these inaccuracies as required by law. This negligence has persisted despite my lawful right, under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I5 U.S.C. 1681, to have my credit report reflect only accurate and verifiable information. The FCRA mandates that credit reporting agencies ensure the accuracy of information ( 15 U.S.C.le ( b ) ) and conduct a reasonable investigation of disputes raised by consumers ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ). The accounts in question, listed below, contain incorrect information that I have repeatedly disputed : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Despite multiple attempts to have these inaccuracies addressed, the bureaus have not conducted a reasonable investigation or made the required updates, violating my rights under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) and 168li of the FCRA. This disregard for my rights as a consumer is impacting my financial standing, and I am requesting immediate corrective action.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I filed a complaint with the Bureaus a month ago, but the wrong info on my report is still there. I haven't heard back from them, aside from your message saying the company replied to my complaint. How can I trust that they've really looked into the inaccuracies? What steps did they take to verify the accounts? This whole thing is so frustrating! It's been over XXXX  days since I reached out, and the disputed accounts are still unchanged. If this keeps up, I might have to consider legal action because of the stress it's causing me. Plus, I'm worried about my personal data security after the Equifax, Experian, and Transunion breach.

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I am writing to delete the following information on my credit report. The following items are listed in the report. I am a victim of identity theft. The charges made on the account were not mine. The items need to be deleted as they are inaccurate items on my credit report. The theft of my identity was reported to the federal Trade Commission. Also, I have an enclosed copy of the Federal Trade Commission identity theft affidavit. Please find it in your best interest to delete the items I would like to emphasize the following legal obligations under the FCRA : Under 1681b, a consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report only under specific circumstances, including " In response to the order of a court having jurisdiction to issue such an order, or a subpoena issued in connection with proceedings before a Federal grand jury. '' This provision strictly limits when my consumer report can be furnished, and I do not believe any of these circumstances apply in this case.

Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), credit bureaus must conduct a " reasonable reinvestigation '' upon receiving notice of a consumer dispute. I am formally notifying you of this dispute, and I expect a thorough and reasonable reinvestigation of all items I've identified.

15 U.S. Code 1681b outlines the permissible purposes of consumer reports, including conditions for furnishing and using consumer reports for employment purposes. I do not believe any of these permissible purposes apply to the disputed items on my report.

15 U.S. Code $ 1681c-2 a consumer reporting agency shall block the reporting of any. 
information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt.

Complaint narrative:
This letter serves as a formal follow-up to my initial dispute # XXXX regarding inaccurate information being reported on my consumer credit report by XXXX, TransUnion, and XXXX  for XXXX XXXX - ALL, account number XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  ; XXXX XXXX - ALL, account number XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ; XXXX  XXXX - ALL, account number XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ; and XXXX  - ALL, account number XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I am now invoking my rights under FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), which mandates that consumer reporting agencies reinvestigate disputed information and provide a detailed description of the procedure used to determine the accuracy and completeness of the disputed items. Since your previous response returned the accounts as verified, I am now requesting the specific method of verification used to reach that conclusion, including the name and contact information of the furnisher, and the original source of the data used to verify the accuracy of the delinquency status reported. If you are unable to provide this information, or if the furnisher can not produce documented evidence bearing my original wet signature authorizing the reporting of such information, then per the FCRA, all contested items in my original dispute must be permanently deleted from the credit report you maintain.

Complaint narrative:
Dear TransUnion Dispute Department, This message is in regard to my recent disputes concerning the following accounts on my credit report : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX According to your update, both of these accounts are now listed as ACTIVE DISPUTE, but there has been no conclusive reinvestigation outcome provided, despite the fact that a reasonable amount of time has passed since the dispute was initiated. 

Per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 611 : A consumer reporting agency must complete the reinvestigation within 30 days of receiving a dispute. 

If the information can not be verified, it must be deleted from the consumer 's file. 

A consumer must be notified of the results of the reinvestigation. 

To date, I have not received any final dispute results, nor any verification evidence supporting the continued reporting of these accounts. Both accounts are also being inconsistently reported across bureaus, which calls into question the accuracy and integrity of the data being maintained.

Complaint narrative:
I was on the phone with a cash app representative. They denied some disputes that I opened. I appealed the decision and had the disputes reopened. The representative disputed a bandzoogle website transaction I didn't ask them to dispute because that transaction was accurate. I've called them about that and told them they weren't supposed to dispute that charge, asked them to cancel it but they said once they're opened a dispute they can't cancel it. They denied the dispute, claimed it was fraud and deactivated my Cash App account over something that wasn't even my fault. They deactivated it XX/XX/year>.
