Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a complaint against CitiBank concerning what I believe to be discriminatory treatment in my recent application for the Citi AAdvantage Platinum Select credit card. I believe CitiBank 's actions may violate the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, which prohibits discrimination in credit decisions based on national origin. 

Details of My Case : XXXX. In XX/XX/year>, I received a pre-selection letter from CitiBank/XXXX XXXX XXXXnviting me to apply for the Citi AAdvantage Platinum Select credit card. Based on this invitation, I submitted my application.

2. After submission, I received an email from CitiBank confirming that my application was being processed. Shortly after, I received a letter from CitiBank requesting a copy of my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. As I am currently in the United States on a XXXX XXXX  I do not hold a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  So, I contacted CitiBank to inquire if I could submit alternate documentation to verify my status. However, my request was denied, and my application was subsequently declined on this basis. 
4. CitiBanks handling of my application appears to violate the Equal Credit Opportunity Act. Despite CitiBank 's knowledge of my nationality ( XXXX ) from my application, they chose to process it and ran a hard inquiry on my credit report, only to later deny my application for lack of permanent residency or citizenship status. I believe CitiBank could have informed applicants of their residency or citizenship requirements upfront to avoid unnecessary applications and credit report inquiries from individuals like myself.

As a result, I now have an unnecessary inquiry on my credit report, which negatively affects my credit score and reflects an application for which I was ultimately deemed ineligible solely because of my current visa status.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute and request the removal of several fraudulent accounts listed on my credit report. These accounts were opened without my knowledge or consent and do not represent any authorized activity on my part. I have taken extensive steps to address this issue with the institutions involved, and they have confirmed that these accounts are fraudulent. The institutions holding these accounts have agreed to delete them from their records and support this claim with an FTC Identity Theft Report, which I have enclosed as additional documentation. This report verifies that these accounts were opened under fraudulent circumstances and should be immediately removed from my credit file under the protections offered by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). The continued presence of these fraudulent accounts on my credit report is causing me substantial harm, as it misrepresents my creditworthiness and affects my ability to obtain necessary financial services. Given that the institutions in question have agreed to delete these accounts, I respectfully request that the credit bureau promptly updates my report to reflect these removals.

Complaint narrative:
I have asked the credit bureaus for an explanation of how an account related to a court case was verified, and they keep sending me emails stated it was verified but wont explain to me what method they used to verify this account I Subject : Request for Verification Explanation of Court Case Reporting I wrote them to request clarification on the verification of an account on my credit report. My records show a court-related entry that I believe may not have been properly verified. As I understand, courts generally do not report case information directly to credit bureaus. Given this, I am seeking to understand how this information was verified and reported on my credit file.

Could you please provide detailed information on the source of this court case entry and how it was verified for accuracy?
