Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed

Complaint:
I have tried multiple times to have this collection removed from my account as it has been settled and paid with the creditor. 

Under the FCRA Congressional findings and statement of purpose [ 15 U.S.C. 1681 ] The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

This is inaccurate reporting and thus needs to be removed from all credit reporting agencies, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX

The reference number from XXXX is XXXX. I messaged them on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX all they did was send me a copy of a bill.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: FL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
I am consistently charged late fees by Wells Fargo every month. 
Also when I pay on month x, it says that my " next '' monthly payment on the XXXX of month x, as if to say that I will always be late and the information post payment is not immediately updated so this perpetuates the confusion. 

Even during the pandemic I was assessed late fees! I contacted the bank on this matter and they tell me that they can only do one adjustment per year. 

I have had my mortgage with Wells Fargo since 2006 and have refinanced once with Wells Fargo also. I have always been current on my mortgage balance, Other issues I have had with Wells Fargo : - opening of account without permission - overdraft fees on debit card payment when I have never instructed the bank to go beyond available balance. 

The above mentioned issues were indeed resolved by the bank after numerous calls to customer service. 
I have never filed a complaint against this Wells Fargo but this time I feel compelled because I don't think that the bank is transparent about its practices.

Complaint:
I checked my Equifax credit report on XX/XX/2023 and saw that my score had decreased drastically. I checked the comments associated with the recent score change only to find inconsistencies in the fluctuations of my credit score. Equifax knows that my credit score is referred to by creditors when considering my creditworthiness. Equifax has purposely attacked me by reporting false late payments, since this is 35 % of my credit score. Equifax is not reporting accounts with positive payment history in order to coerce payments for alleged debts and to continue to monetize my nonpublic information.
