Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Subissue: Debt was result of identity theft
Consumer Complaint: I believe I am a victim of identity theft. Due to the Pandemic, we have been facing a lot of problems in terms of financial, emotional, and physical aspects. Also, I have been hearing a lot of recent news that the Bureaus are having data and system issues. I disputed the fraudulent information from my credit report. I have no idea how the theft took place. I also have no knowledge of any suspects. I did not receive any money, goods, or services as a result of identity theft. I have done many attempts to reach out to the Bureaus but they failed to give me any results or feedbacks about this concern. Please investigate and remove it from my personal credit file. Thank you.

Subissue: Debt was result of identity theft
Consumer Complaint: I have called the company IC System Inc several times and verified that the address they have on file for myself is not accurate and that I had been the victim of identity theft. They stated they were going to send paperwork that I needed to complete that would assist them in determining if I was telling the truth. They stated it would take two weeks to receive. I did not receive the document. I filed a police report as they requested. It has been 8 weeks. I have called the original company XXXX and spent more than 45 minutes being transferred from person to person with no assistance. This fraudelent information is affecting my ability to get my home refinanced and needs to be removed immediately as it is fraudulent. When I called XXXX I told one of the customer service agents that it was due to identity theft and he proceeded to ask me if I wanted to pay the bill.

Consumer Complaint: XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX aka XXXX XXXX cable services closed my cable account, I returned the cable box and delivered them to their field office. My cable bill was {$260.00} after shutting off the service, they continued to bill and added more and more dollar amounts to my account. Making my pay of past due monies owed to XXXX impossible for me to pay, now my owed amount is doubled from my billing statement, placing negative reporting on my credit report. This seems to be a practice they do to customers who can't or won't pay them what they ask. I'm a senior citizen on a fixed income, and this is effecting my credit FICO score. the information on the reporting of my past due amount is incorrect and I'm stuck with negative reviews and FICO score.
