Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Ive reached out to all credit reporting agencies over the course of the past 2 years to be exact in regards to my rights being violated, inaccurate findings, fraudulent findings, and unfortunately they did the bare minimum if that to ever resolve or correct the issues at hand. Ive reached out to them via phone calls, letters, disputes online. Unfortunately XXXX, Equifax as well as XXXX. All are still in violation of 15 usc 1681a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) which states that transactions between the consumer and the person/corporation making the report shall be excluded/ not included. But yet all 3 credit reporting agencies fail to comply with this law. Might I add pursuant to 15 usc 1681a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) the reporting of excluded information on a consumer report is a clear violation of Metro 2 compliance. I need the metro 2 compliance disclosures on reporting transactions to a consumer reporting agency. All derogatory and defamation of character transactions that are reporting as collections, inquiries, charge off, or late need to be removed EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY! My time is valuable please dont waste it. Please dont send me any stall tactics, or any other verified or validated responses. I didnt ask for you to validate or verify anything. So again, please dont waste my time. Time is money and between the back and forth that Ive gone through with these agencies a lot of time and money have been wasted. Not to mention the damages that these violations have caused. The negative accounts that have Been placed in collections or listed as charged off were done without me receiving a copy of the IRS form 1099-C cancellation of debt. XXXX, XXXX, equifax and the creditors reporting late payments, Charge offs, or any defamation and derogatory information on my consumer reports are in violation of 26 usc ss 6050P Returns Relating to the cancellation of indebtedness By certain Entities. If this derogatory account information is not deleted within 30 days, I will unfortunately have to officially file IRS form 3949A : Information Referral AND IRS form 211 : Application For Award For Original Information Overview with the Internal Revenue Service against ALL entities involved.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Citi XXXX by XXXX has rejected a dispute request for a charge on services not rendered ( wedding flower preservation ). I was charged {$530.00}, by ( XXXX ), in XXXX of XXXX. Due to XXXX, wedding was postponed until XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX promised to preserve my wedding flowers in a resin cast but I never received the product. In XX/XX/XXXX, I was told that I should reach out to my creditor since XXXX would be closing their doors and no longer offering refunds to consumers. I supplied my creditor with ample evidence of the charges and services unrendered. In the first communication from Citi, I was told that I didnt supply adequate information with my claim. Therefore, I resubmitted a new claim with the missing statement and a printout that another Citi consumer had received a chargeback ( for an XXXX purchase ) even though the 60 days from billing for a refund had also passed for them. I dont understand how a creditor can get away with giving credit back to only some consumers but not all who find themselves in the same predicament. This seems to be an unfair credit practice and should be regulated to better protect the consumer. I have lost faith in the creditor and would consider leaving the company if I had the option to keep my XXXX membership with an alternate creditor.
