Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
I am writing to dispute the presence of inaccurate information on my credit reports with your respective agencies. I have identified an account ( XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX ) that has been reported with inconsistent last activity dates ( XXXX- XX/XX/XXXX, Equifax- XX/XX/XXXX ). This discrepancy is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I have previously contested this inaccuracy, however, it still appears on my report. This persistence of incorrect data further contravenes the stipulations of the FCRA, in particular, 15 USC 1681 ( e ) ( b ), which mandates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. 

In addition, the failure to rectify this error after my previous dispute violates 15 USC 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). According to this provision, if the completeness or accuracy of any item of information contained in a consumer 's file at a consumer reporting agency is disputed by the consumer and the consumer notifies the agency directly, the agency must conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
For at least a year I have had my XXXX cell phone bill reported to Experian XXXX. 
This resulted in a boost of 4 or 5 points. In XXXX of this year I simply changed the vehicle of payment from my XXXX XXXX XXXX  Master card ending in XXXX to my XXXX XXXX  cash rewards Visa card ending in # XXXX. Inexplicably Experian removed the boost resulting in a reduction of 24 points on my credit score. When I tried to explain that the payment to XXXX  has never been late simply the card from whence it came had changed [ both cards have been registered with Experian XXXX for over a year ], Experian explained that the XXXX  would be picked up once three payments were made with the XXXX XXXX Visa card. Although that seemed unfair I waited patiently. At this writing 4 payments have been made but my requests to re install the XXXX  have fallen on deaf ears. My credit score remains down 20+ points with absolutely no negative credit issues other than inquiries as I am attempting to purchase a home. I have been advised that my interest rate will be 1/4 to 1/2 of a % higher due to the wrongful reduced credit score [ presently XXXX. ] Prior to the elimination of the cell phone bill, my Experian score my score was XXXX.

Sub-issue: Overdrafts and overdraft fees

Complaint:
over 4 years ago I had a dispute with td bank about charges that should not been allowed to hit my account. the issue could not be resolved the overdraft remained and was reported to check systems. I have been trying recently to resolve the balance but have encountered the following problems. 1. To reach someone in the collections and recovery department the wait is sometimes upwards of 2 hours. that is every time you call even if you speak to someone need to get information and call back you could be on hold that long. ( no one has that time -- especially not during business hours ) 2. I finally spoke to a gentle man who told me the balance was no longer 250 ( approx. ) but 600+. I asked why and was told because of fees associated with collections. I work in XXXX XXXX XXXX  and you don't pay unless they collect something. No one did so what are the over 400 in  fees???? 3. I was told to go into a branch an get a print out which I did to see a detail and explanation of the charges -- the 400+ is not there and the statement has no detail but raised another?. the last transaction is from XXXX for approx. 250. but the statement says it was presented twice and then returned -- so what is the balance? when I was told it was that charge. I was also told by the rep in the location that what they are requesting is not available through the branch office I need answers that I have not been able to obtain
