Consumer Narrative
I signed up for credit monitoring about 2-3 years ago, I noticed some inaccurate information and things on my bureaus. I took the time to go one by one and reach out to the companies with the inaccurate information. World Finance is one of the creditors. So the first or second time I spoke with someone they told me that they had investigated and was aware the account was not my account. They removed the account, then the account was back on the bureaus. Had reached out like 40-50 times with them. On a lot of occasions I was given the run around. Last month I tried reaching out again and it was the same scenario. It was verified and removed then here again its back on my credit bureaus.
