Complaint narrative:
I am continually being called on the telephone by this agency over an alleged debt. I am requesting validation of this debt. This account has been reporting inaccurately. I wanted to dispute this account because of this and it was affecting my credit report. I am having problems with this unfair treatment. I am sure that I settled this account before because it was not mine. This account was taken care of with the original creditor and promised me to update it out of my report. Therefore, this account is unverifiable. This is an error that you need to look into, so please do your investigation on this and remove or delete this account from my credit report.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
I made 3 purchases from a company named XXXX. The company issued me refunds for all 3 orders after I filed a dispute against them because they claimed since I used XXXX  for the returns instead of XXXX they marked them as fraud. The company finally issued credits for all 3 orders when they finally checked and found out they had indeed issued XXXX labels for my returns. After months of fighting with the merchant then comes the nightmare with Synchrony Bank Paypal Mastercard. For 4 months or so my statements show they remove the charges only to turn around and add them again. I finally got tired of fighting them and filed a complaint with the XXXX  and they are not even responding to that complaint. There last word was in XXXX they issued me credits for all XXXX orders but it wasn't credits. They actually added all 3 orders back to my account. I can not get anyone to go over the months they have messed up and fix it. I came up with credit for only one of the orders and the other two I'm still charged for. If I am not making my complaint to the correct department please forward or advise the correct place to make a complaint against the credit card company. Thanks

Complaint narrative:
It is extremely distressing to see false, incorrect, and inaccurate information being reported under my name. I am an honest individual working hard to improve my situation, yet my credit report reflects data that I do not recognize or authorize. 

As a consumer, I know I have rights and protections, but this situation makes it feel like those rights are being ignored. These errors have already impacted my life and credit negatively, causing credit application denials and forcing me to continue living paycheck to paycheck.

Complaint narrative:
I have repeatedly disputed the XXXX XXXX  account on my credit report since I found out it was there in XX/XX/XXXX. I even sent in a police report showing my vehicle was stolen in XXXX and is how my information was stolen. There was a bag in the vehicle with personal identification in it. Including an old phone that was unlocked because I was going to take it to XXXX XXXX XXXX to have turned on for my daughter. That phone had a photo of my social security card and my bank cards on it. I hadnt wiped it clean yet. My identity was exposed in the vehicle theft. I went to get a new drivers license because my license number was exposed. I have no information about the account. I dont know what email, physical address, phone number or anything the person used to open the account. Equifax still keeps saying its an accurate account but it is NOT! It is FRAUD! Equifax has refused to remove it and I cant confirm any information when I call XXXX because I dont know what they used besides my name, social and birthdate. Please help me by getting an investigation into this matter started. These credit bureaus only intend to harm the consumer. They dont care about what we say, only what the merchant tells them. Which is crazy when its the consumers information at risk. I am attaching the police reports and the updated dispute results. I have spoken to an attorney and will file suit in court if this cant be resolved with CFPB.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute an account that is being reported on my credit report, which constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2. Therefore, I respectfully request that this information be blocked or deleted immediately.

I am enclosing a copy of my Identity Theft Report issued by the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), FTC REPORT NUMBER : XXXX, as supporting evidence for my claim. 

According to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, once a consumer submits an identity theft report, credit reporting agencies are legally required to block any information identified by the consumer as resulting from such identity theft within four ( 4 ) business days. 

The following information in my credit file is the result of a clear FCRA violation and must be blocked immediately : XXXX  / Account Number : XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX / Account Number : XXXX XXXX / Account Number : XXXX Additionally, 15 U.S.C. 1681b, which states that a credit reporting agency may not include information in a consumers file unless there is a valid authorization or permissible purpose. I never authorized the opening or reporting of this account, and there is no signed contract or consent from me that justifies its inclusion in my credit report. 

Therefore, the continued presence of this account constitutes not only a result of identity theft but also the unauthorized use and disclosure of my personal information, in direct violation of the FCRAs requirements. 

In accordance with 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 and 1681b, I respectfully request that this account be blocked and deleted immediately from my credit report and that it no longer be reported in any manner. 

I have contacted Equifax on multiple occasions to report these accounts, but I have yet to receive a clear or definitive resolution to this matter. This situation is causing me serious harm, as I am in the process of purchasing a new home for my children and seeking financial tools to support my economic growth. These negative accounts are blocking my opportunities and causing both personal and financial damage. 

Furthermore, these accounts have already been deleted by other credit bureaus, as they were unable to verify them under the procedures required by law. I do not understand why this agency continues to report this account on my credit file. 

I have also requested copies of any contracts related to these accounts from the company reporting them, and after more than 60 days, I have not received a single response. This further supports the fact that there is no verifiable evidence or legal basis for continuing to report this information. 

I respectfully request that you assist me by removing these accounts immediately.

Complaint narrative:
I received a mailer from Prosperity XXXX Mortage XXXX, ref # XXXX, contact # XXXX. XXXX XXXX answered the phone The following are red flags that I detect and suggest fraud : 1. Addressed to a non-veteran is Misrepresentation. Your wife is not a veteran, yet the letter states As an eligible veteranthis appears to be a false representation, possibly to invoke credibility or urgency. 
2. URL impersonation is a Misleading web address. The URL XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is not a VA.gov domain and seems crafted to look official. It's a common tactic in phishing or deceptive marketing. 
3. Too-good-to-be-true claims and Unrealistic figures. It claims your wife is eligible for {$880000.00} in cash out and a new mortgage of {$1.00} XXXX, regardless of income, home value, or credita classic lure for baiting calls. 
4. Urgency tactics Pressure-based marketing Call within 5 days is designed to create artificial urgency and bypass reasoned judgment.

5. VA loan misuse Implied federal affiliation. The language implies VA endorsement or federal program participation, which may violate federal rules on VA lending marketing.

6. Company ambiguity Hidden affiliations. The actual lending agencies are unclear. The footer mentions XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and an NMLS number, which may be real but does not align with the impression of government connection.
