Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally dispute the presence of certain accounts on my consumer report, as I firmly believe that they are in violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S. Code 1681b and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2.

Under 15 U.S. Code 1681b, which addresses the permissible purposes of consumer reports, it is unequivocally stipulated that a consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report only under specific circumstances, one of which is " In accordance with the WRITTEN INSTRUCTION of the consumer to whom it relates. '' I wish to emphasize that I have NEVER provided written consent to any consumer reporting agency to include the disputed accounts in my consumer report. This infringement directly contravenes my rights as a federal pro-consumer individual. 

Furthermore, I must bring to your attention that the inclusion of these accounts on my consumer report without my consent amounts to identity theft, a matter I have promptly reported to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) and for which I have been issued an FTC reference number ( XXXX ). As an identity theft victim, I urgently demand the immediate removal of these accounts and inquiries from my consumer report. 

Account Information : Account Name : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Account Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Account Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Inquiry Information : Inquiry Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX Inquiry Date : XX/XX/2023 According to 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2, a consumer reporting agency is mandated to block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information resulting from alleged identity theft, not later than four business days after the date of receipt. It has now been more than 30 days since my initial request, and your agency remains in violation of this law by failing to promptly address my dispute as a victim of identity theft.

I want to make it abundantly clear that my dispute is not with the creditor associated with these accounts but with your reporting agency, which I did not authorize to include this information in my consumer report. I kindly request the immediate deletion of these items from my consumer report to rectify this unsettling situation.

I fully anticipate your agency to act in accordance with the FCRA and federal law with the utmost expediency. Failure to do so may compel me to take legal action to safeguard my rights as a consumer. I earnestly appreciate your immediate attention to this pressing matter.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: NV
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments
Sub-issue: Problem during payment process

Complaint:
I'm having issues with Paypal Credit and Synchrony Bank, processing my payments past the deadline date, two times in a row in XX/XX/2023 and XX/XX/2023. And it looks like they're going to post it late again for XX/XX/2023. I've called in both previous instances and they reported each time that I filed a claim that the payment was received on time. 

And it's a delay on their end for processing payments. And try to blame the post office and says that it's not the same since covid. Covid has nothing to do with their failure of processing. And I have a track record of making timely payments with PayPal. 

However, I sent the payment in XXXX for a payment this month in XXXX. And it isn't showing as payment received yet. I'm done with filing claims and ask for CFPB assistance to figure out what's going on?

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone

Complaint:
XXXX has had information provided by myself, for over 30 days, that directly resolve my situation. They have information from myself, the original creditor, the settlement and removal of debt that I negotiated over the course of 3 years, with little to no help from XXXX. 

When I call, they state the information doesn't apply on their end, but my report has not changed. At all, and my app does not reflect, adequately that it has been paid and resolved. 

When I called and waited 30 minutes for a supervisor she disconnected the call when she heard something she didn't like and hung it. I find it hard to believe that a 30 minutes hold, and 5 minutes of a call, filled with tension, caused the phone to magically disconnect. 

No call back was provided. No effort to resolve. 

If you are a credit reporting company, YOU ARE NOT THE GOVERNMENT, for one. You're a company getting favor from the government based on a " service '' you provide. The only point of a credit agency is to report truthful and accurate information. 

XXXX XXXX is resolved completely. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX have been resolved completely. 

This complaint encompasses both because if I don't say anything now, about how the CC took over 30 days. Then I wait, 30 days, and complain about XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

That will take 60 days to resolve based on their time table and I have no way to speed up the process, no way to inquire where they are with the process, the application is faulty, the information is only good for people that want to ruin your credit. 

XXXX  job is to report properly. They are not reporting properly. They are not following the 30 day rule agreed to by Legislatures and governs corporations as well. 

Everyone benefits from credit scores, except for the person that has a score reported incorrectly and XXXX makes no real efforts to assist in the process. 

They care more about showing you a card to apply for, to get a finder 's fee, than they care about actually helping the consumer. 

Stop trying to ruin my future prospects with your XXXX and inattentive acts that by this point, look more like malice than negligence. With a nice sprinkle of XXXX and discrimination.
