State: FL
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
I'm writing this complaint and there is no third party involved. This company Equifax, XXXX and XXXX XXXX is very deceptive and unfair, they keep ignoring the situation based on the instructions I'm gave them. After all the due diligence I have done, I found out that pursuant 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( a ) any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other ( 2 ), In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. I have sent them plenty of letters giving them instructions what to furnish in my consumer report and all they do is ignore me. 

This is my privacy and I take very serious and if Equifax, XXXX XXXX and XXXX wants to keep doing business with me, they need to understand that they need to do what I say if it has to do with my consumer report. Based on Congress Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role in assembling and evaluating consumer credit and other information on consumers. They have not been assigned by congress. Equifax, XXXX and XXXX broke the law and they keep doing stuff 's with my consumer report without my consent. No consent is Identity Theft. Recently I was reading the article from the cfpb on XX/XX/2022 ( CFPB RELEASES REPORT DETAILING CONSUMER COMPLAINT RESPONSE DEFICIENCIES OF THE BIG THREE CREDIT BUREAUS. AND THEY TALKE ABOUT HOW eQUIFAX ROUTINELY FAILED TO RESPON TO CONSUMERS WITH ERRORS AND REQUEST. ( Article attached ) They also talk about how Equifax often promised to open investigations and sent the results to the consumers later dates, but it would fail to provide the CFPB with the outcomes of the investigations. They Talk about For many complaints, XXXX frequently stated it would take no action because it believed the complaints were submitted by third parties, however, it did respond to the remaining complaints with substantive responses. 
XXXX made similar promises and frequently failed to provide the outcomes of investigations to the CFPB. It often stated it would take no action on complaints because it believed the complaints were submitted by third parties.. I need Equifax, XXXX and XXXX to take responsibility and stop doing this illegal practices .... 
I don't want the same thing happen to me, Im attaching new copies copies that I have sent today to equifax, XXXX and XXXX. 
attached with my social security card, ID and proof of Address.. Lets see what will be the excuse this time. 

PLEASE NOTE THAT IM NOT TALKING ASKING YOU TO INVESTIGATE OR VERIFY THIS ALLEGED ACCOUNT, IM THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN VERIFY.

State: MI
Product: Vehicle loan or lease
Sub-product: Lease
Issue: Problems at the end of the loan or lease
Sub-issue: Excess mileage, damage, or wear fees, or other problem after the lease is finished

Complaint:
As recently as XX/XX/2020 the joint lease account on my credit report reflected closed, paid in full/obligation met. 

On XX/XX/XXXX both my and my co signer 's credit files were hit with over 165 days past due. 

I have already had to dispute this account and asked numerous times for an updated bill upon which I could pay. 

XX/XX/XXXX I called the collection department and explained I never received an updated bill and was told I would not receive one. 

I mentioned my credit report from XX/XX/XXXX reflected a closed and paid account with GM Financial and they said that on their end they did not report that to be true. GM Financial 's billing practices are abusive, unlawful and the oversight has caused me and my cosigner a lot of negative financial consequences. 

Near the end of the conversation I was finally told that I could be sent a payoff letter with the updated amount due. 

This is what I had been asking for from the very beginning when trying to resolve the incorrect end of lease statement received in XXXX.

Complaint:
My grandmother died of XXXX in XX/XX/2020. I had put all my credit cards on autopay due to me being understandably preoccupied. 

And after that, I got an email saying I had a 31 day late payment on my account. 

I checked my account and I saw that I had in fact paid my Chase card on time. 

However, I noticed that my statement had XXXX ) the wrong home address, as I had moved 100 miles away XXXX ) the wrong balance XXXX ) and the wrong authorized payment I have repeatedly called XXXX about this issue, starting in XX/XX/2020. I have called and had in-person meetings about this every single month till today. During these calls and in-person meetings, I have been called racial slurs, and told that I'm a XXXX and a XXXX  by a receptionist at XXXX  ( I'm a straight cisgender man, but that didn't seem to protect me from discrimination ). I've also been told to go back to my country, even though I was born and raised in America. I've had XXXX employees make fun of my name, and told " my dead grandma is irrelevant to XXXX 's policy on revising the information they send to credit bureaus ''. I filed multiple complaints within XXXX about the abuse I received ; none of these complaints ever led to any change in employee behavior. 

Since XXXX fraudulently claimed I was late on a payment, my credit score has plummeted. 

I called XXXX Bank yet again today to ask for proof I missed this payment, and the person on the phone laughed at me, said " that's impossible because it was from XXXX, '' and when I asked for her office 's mailing address, she hung up on me. 

XXXX has no proof I missed this payment, has repeatedly discriminated on me on the basis of race, national origin, gender identity, and XXXX orientation, and has refused to do report accurate information to the credit agencies. XXXX bank needs to be held responsible I have included the XXXX statement 's that have my incorrect address. I also included a receipt I got from an Illinois government affiliate, proving I lived in Champaign in XXXX. And finally, I included the announcement of my grandmother 's funeral. It shows the funeral happening on XX/XX/2020, which is XX/XX/XXXX on the XXXX calendar. And I'm listed as a grandchild under the nickname she called me, XXXX

Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: Store credit card
Issue: Fees or interest
Sub-issue: Problem with fees

Complaint:
Ive called Comenity Bank multiple times ( at least 4 ) since I signed for a card with Ulta. When I called I asked to change my payment date as I noticed I was getting charged a late fee every month as the bill is for the XXXX. I usually pay the bill on the XXXX. Because my bill is paperless I wasnt aware I was accruing late fees. When I realized it I called. XX/XX/XXXX was the first time I realized I was being charged a late fee. At that point I had been charged on XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX Comenity Bank removed the late fee for XX/XX/XXXX. I asked to change the date of the payment. I was informed I needed to call back closer to the middle of the month. Life is busy and a few months would go by and Id remember and call again only to be told the same thing, call back. The card has a credit limit of {$700.00}. Theyve charged me {$310.00} in late fees since XX/XX/XXXX with the excuse of having an old system and being unable to change my payment date at the time of my phone call. Ive called 4 times maybe more trying to get my date changed. I have been unsuccessful which has increased my interest and late fees because Comenity Bank continues to use the excuse of their system being unable to change the date when I call to continue with their deceptive and bad business practices.This causes unnecessary and unfair, and unaffordable late fees every month, which raises the interest rate monthly, and raise the interest rate overall because Im late due to their inability to change the date when I call.
