Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Complaint Regarding Chase Banks Refusal to Process Valid Dispute Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding Chase Banks handling of a credit card dispute I filed. I had booked a weekend getaway for XXXX XXXX XXXX through the official booking service on XX/XX/year> to XXXX  XXXX XXXX to XX/XX/year> booking number XXXX. Unfortunately, I became ill and had to cancel my trip. I contacted the XXXX XXXX  booking service on XX/XX/year>, and I spoke to a representative named XXXX, who assured me that my reservation would be refunded to my credit card. XXXX also sent me an email confirming the cancellation and refund ( please see the attached copy of this communication ). 

Weeks went by, and I did not receive the refund on my credit card. I contacted the hotel again, only to be told that I should file a dispute directly with my credit card company, Chase Bank. I did as instructed and submitted my dispute, along with the confirmation email from the hotel. 

To my disappointment, Chase Bank has refused to proceed with the investigation or refund my money. I contacted the hotel again, but I was informed that XXXX is no longer with the company, and they are unable to assist me further. Now, my case is in limbo, with neither the hotel nor Chase Bank willing to take responsibility. 

Despite providing Chase with the hotels cancellation email as proof, they are still refusing to process my dispute. I find this completely unacceptable and would appreciate your help in rectifying this situation. 

I kindly ask the XXXX XXXX XXXX  to intervene and assist in resolving this matter, as I have made every effort to follow the proper channels, and I am still left without the refund I am owed. 

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Complaint narrative:
I notified XXXX several times that inquiries from XXXX XXXX  and Santander  were not made by me. They did not investigate properly nor have they removed the inquiries from my report. I filed a complaint with you and FTC in XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX XXXX  actually took the time to investigate and they determined that I was NOT responsible for the account created fraudulently. They have deleted the account and inquiry from XXXX twice! However, XXXX insist that they havent received any request from them. 
( I attached the letter from XXXX below ) Santander- they responded to complaint : XXXX. That I applied for credit and I absolutely did not. The letter provided was not proof that I submitted an application with Santander or XXXX. To make matters worse, I received another denial letter dated XX/XX/XXXX as if I applied for credit with them yet again!! The notice will be attached below. At this time, I feel like Im being harassed by Santander. I have not and will not ever apply for credit with them! Directly or indirectly. 
Lastly, the inquiry dated XX/XX/XXXX w/Santander has not been removed. Its been over two years.
