Complaint:
I am writing to submit a formal complaint regarding inaccurate information on my credit report that I reported to Experian on XX/XX/XXXX. Unfortunately, to this date, I have not received any response from Experian regarding the disputed information. I am seeking assistance from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) to address this matter. 
The following are the details of the inaccurate information and the required corrections : Account Name : XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$420.00} The above account contains inaccurate evidence that is causing prejudice to my credit reputation. The reported balance of {$420.00} does not correspond to the lower amount that I remember. I request Experian to revise the XXXX XXXX information, as it is not accurate to present a Past Due amount for a closed account that was charged-off. This account has likely caused a drop in my credit score. I need to reach an agreement with my creditor regarding the incorrect data. I kindly ask Experian to mark this account as disputed to prevent further negative impact on my credit score. 


Account Name : XXXX  XXXX Account Number : XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$660.00} The above account does not belong to me, and I request Experian to remove it from my credit report. 


Account Name : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$2200.00} The above account does not belong to me, and I request Experian to remove it from my credit report. 


Account Name : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX High Credit : {$2500.00} The above account was never late, contrary to the information on my credit report. I kindly request Experian to correct/update this inaccurate information on my credit report.

Complaint:
XX/XX/XXXX To whom it may concern : This complaint letter is directed at XXXX credit card company. I called this company last year ( XX/XX/XXXX ) to close my credit card after paying it off. The customer rep asked if there was anything they could do to keep me as a customer to which I replied, No, I want the card closed. To date, the card is still open and active. Im sending this complaint to each of the credit bureaus and if the account remains open Im writing a complaint to the Florida Attorney General. 

Why would they continue to keep my card open after I requested it closed? I learned that the card was still active after I received an email last week stating that my card had been charged the XXXX annual membership fee. I called and had the charge removed. 

Their information is below : XXXX Customer Care PO Box XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX XXXX Please keep me updated. Thank you.

Complaint:
Dear XXXX XXXX XXXX ; XXXX ; XXXX ; and Transunion ; These are unfair entries on my credit report. I have been trying to get to the bottom of this account. I got into a car accident in XXXX on my XXXX, and the car was totaled my insurance told me not to worry about it and don't make a payment. I have proof that I still made the payments and your company refunded me over $ XXXX but yet told me that I was late during the month of XXXX and XX/XX/2023. How is that even possible? I believe this negative entry on my credit report is inaccurate because I have a record that my insurance company sent you {$42000.00} and i made a payment of {$3700.00} and other automatic payments of {$1200.00}... This monthly payment always comes out of my account religiously every month non-stop. How can you say that I missed a payment in XXXX and XXXX?

Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint:
I sent a certified letter to HUNTER WARFIELD on XX/XX/2018 and they failed to respond back within the ( 30 ) day time frame for the 2nd time. HUNTER WARFIELD also continues to violate my consumer rights by deliberately refusing to comply with federal and state law according to FCRA and FDCPA. Therefore, I believe their actions are discriminatory ; due to the fact, this item has been DELETED, RE-INSERTED BACK ONTO MY CREDIT REPORT, REDACTED and RE-AGED in the attempt to collect on an alleged account that they failed to VALIDATE on approximately ( 5 ) occasions according to FDCPA-Validation of Debts 15 U.S.C. 1692g. More so, it is against the law for HUNTER WARFIELD INC to continue reporting a disputed account to the credit bureau ( s ) ; nevertheless, trying to collect on an alleged debt without VALIDATING it first. Also HUNTER WARFIELD INC violated federal law by not notifying me within ( 5 ) days before they REQUESTED a DELETED account to be REINSERTED back onto my credit file pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( B ) ( i ) ( ii ) and ( iii ) Requirements relating to reinsertion of previously deleted material. Since HUNTER WARFIELD refusal to respond to my request for validation and their noncompliance within the ( 30 ) day time frame is a violation of both the federal and state law according to the disclosure requirements of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the Uniform Commercial Code and the FDCPA. ; due to fact, HUNTER WARFIELD INC fail to meet the legal requirements by law. Also, HUNTER WARFIELD is still adding interest on a close account which also violates the FCRA and the FDCPA. Furthermore, I do not believe that HUNTER WARFIELD is licensed to conduct business in my state etc.

Company: CHECKredi of Kentucky, LLC

Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint:
I use XXXX gas rewards, which requires a bank account to be linked. When I changed banks, I forgot to switch this account. When a gas charge was not able to go through, rather than simply informing me I need to update my payment information ( like any other company I've ever done business with! ), the payment was referred to the debt collector CheckRedi who immediately charged a {$35.00} fee. When I called they staunchly refused to waive the fee stating it was in the terms of service. XXXX also passed the buck to CheckRedi and said nothing can be done. Given I just got married and changed a variety of accounts and credit cards, I inevitably forgot a few accounts and didn't have updated payment information on file for a few recurring charges. In every other instance, as you would expect, I was informed by the business that I needed to update my payment information which I promptly did. Charging a {$35.00} fee for this and pointing to fine print in terms of service for gas rewards that no one would ever read is so absurd it's hard to put in words. This is an exorbitant and exploitative business practice that should be immediately stopped. I would be filing complaints with the MA Attorney General and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau as well.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding the inaccurate reporting of collection agency accounts by the credit bureaus. Specifically, I have discovered that multiple credit bureaus have reported a collections agency account that does not belong to me. Despite repeated attempts to rectify this issue, the inaccurate information remains on my credit report, which has adversely affected my financial standing and creditworthiness. 

I have diligently reviewed my credit reports from all three major credit bureaus, namely XXXX, Experian, and XXXX, and have identified the presence of a collections account from XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. The account in question allegedly pertains to an outstanding debt for which I have never received any notification or been served with a lawsuit. The reporting of this account is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, as it inaccurately represents my credit history. 

I have taken the necessary steps to dispute this error with the credit bureaus involved. I submitted detailed disputes outlining the inaccuracies, providing supporting documents, and emphasizing that I have no association with the collections agency or the alleged debt. However, despite my efforts, the credit bureaus have failed to remove the erroneous account from my credit report, resulting in significant harm to my financial well-being. 

I kindly request your intervention and assistance in resolving this matter promptly. I urge the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to investigate the credit bureaus ' actions and ensure that they comply with the regulations outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I believe the credit bureaus have failed to fulfill their obligations to accurately report consumer information, which has had a detrimental impact on my creditworthiness and financial opportunities. 

Enclosed with this letter, you will find copies of my credit reports clearly displaying the inaccurate collections account, as well as the supporting documents that demonstrate my lack of involvement with the collections agency. Additionally, I have attached the correspondence exchanged with the credit bureaus, illustrating my attempts to resolve this matter directly with them. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint:
An attempt to make payment for the month ofXX/XX/2019 was unsuccessful due to inability to access account with regular credentials after countless tries. I was without cell phone reception on and off for days due to travel. I was finally able to gain access to account after making a password change. When I saw the remaining balance .... it was my immediate reaction to pay the entirety of the remaining balance. Mostly to avoid anymore account accessing issues. Very frustrating. I was elated to have the account in good standing and finally closed. Until ... I received emails months later stating I had a balance. Unable to gain access to the account to resolve issue financially, I called. Over the phone I explained why payments werent made. We settled the issue with the agreement I would pay {$89.00} as a final payment. I have received a receipt for transaction. This receipt contains NO indication that this account is now closed. 
I had no way of knowing if this account had gone to collections or not. As both XXXX XXXX XXXX and lending club patient solutions sent me updated information about my account and payments via email since the establishment of this account. 

I was unable to make my first payment without calling. I was then directed to a website that was not indicated on my statement. XXXX From which I made an account and began making payments monthly.
