Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Account status incorrect

Consumer Complaint: Dear XXXX XXXX XXXX I am writing to formally dispute inaccuracies in my account reporting and address serious violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by your institution. Please note that I have already filed a complaint regarding these matters with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Your records erroneously report late payments on my account, which is not only inaccurate but also a clear violation of my privacy rights under 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 602. Additionally, you have furnished my account information without my written consent, contravening 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 604. As a remedy for these violations, I am requesting : A financial compensation of {$3000.00} for the damages caused. Immediate correction of my account records to reflect that all payments are current and have never been late. Furthermore, pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 6802, I hereby opt out of any and all authorizations for sharing my personal and financial information, including any previously given consents, whether written, unwritten, verbal, or non-verbal. You are not authorized to share my information under any circumstances henceforth. I expect prompt action on these issues, including written confirmation of the account corrections and acknowledgment of the compensation. Failure to adequately address these concerns will result in further action. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I anticipate a response within 30 days of this letters receipt. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Information belongs to someone else

Consumer Complaint: I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction and concern regarding the many unsuccessful attempts to remove fraudulent items from my credit file. Despite numerous reports and requests for assistance, the resolution process has been frustratingly ineffective, and the fraudulent information continues to adversely impact my credit standing. I discovered unauthorized and fraudulent entries on my credit report, prompting me to contact your credit bureau immediately to report the fraudulent activities. Since then, I have diligently followed the necessary procedures for disputing inaccurate information, providing detailed information, and submitting supporting evidence. Regrettably, my efforts to rectify this situation have been met with continuous setbacks, leading me to question the efficiency and effectiveness of the resolution process. I wish to bring the following issues to your attention : Despite multiple reports and the provision of supporting documentation, it appears that the investigation into these fraudulent entries has not yielded the desired results. The lack of progress is concerning, and I am left with unresolved inaccuracies on my credit report. Throughout this process, there has been a significant lack of clear and consistent communication. Timely updates on the status of the investigation and the actions being taken would have provided reassurance during this challenging period. To my dismay, the fraudulent items persist on my credit report, negatively affecting my credit standing and financial well-being. This has resulted in undue stress and hardship, indicating a failure to adequately address the issue and protect consumers from the consequences of identity theft. I understand that addressing fraudulent entries on credit reports is a complex and challenging task, but as a concerned consumer, I expect a higher level of urgency, transparency, and commitment to resolving such issues promptly. I am formally requesting an immediate and thorough review of the handling of my case. I insist on a comprehensive explanation of the steps taken to investigate and remove the fraudulent items from my credit file. Additionally, I seek clear assurances and a detailed plan outlining how your credit bureau intends to prevent the recurrence of such incidents in the future. If my concerns are not addressed satisfactorily, I may have no choice but to escalate this matter to the relevant regulatory authorities and consumer protection agencies. I am asking for your assistance to remove these fraudulent items in my credit file : 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 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 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 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 XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX DEPTEDXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX DEPTEDXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Consumer Complaint: I appreciate you making the effort to update and repair some of the data on my credit report, but there are still some items that need to be fixed.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem

Subissue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Consumer Complaint: Time has already passed but up until now, I havent heard any kind of response from the XXXXCredit Bureaus which made me decide to seek assistance from you. They have shown negligence and an act of refusal to comply with my request. I know for a fact that they are to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act law, provide proof, and documents, and give definite and accurate responses, within the given statutory time. However, if they fail to do so, they are obliged to remove or update the items which are erroneous and unverified. Their unfavorable and unacceptable actions have been hurting my credit scores immensely. Please see below the account I am concerned about : XXXX XXXX
