PLEASE ADVISE THE UPDATED XXXX XXXX Part XXXX SUMMARY : The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( Bureau ) is issuing this advisory opinion to outline certain obligations of consumer reporting agencies and consumer report users under section 604 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

How did you verify these accounts? Insufficient matching procedures can lead to entities providing reports to companies without a permissible purpose.

The representative checked the system and confirmed that my request for deferral was approved through XX/XX/XXXX for the credit card, and the loan deferral was also approved, but in the system, it wasn't clear to her for how long the loan deferral was extended. She assumed it was the same as the credit card deferral but would follow-up and confirm. She also acknowledged that no letter had been sent out. I asked if she could provide me a letter and she stated that she would check into it and forward the request. Now, PenFed has posted 2 late payments on my accounts and I'm unsure why.

Issue: Problem when making payments
Sub-issue: Problem during payment process

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2919 I sent a check ( XXXX XXXX  ) for {$5000.00} in full payment of my bill to XXXX XXXX MasterCard ( Barclays Bank ). I was credited with a payment of {$50.00}, Interest on the unpaid balance was waived when I complained. However, they refused to provide a copy of my check, saying it had been destroyed and no copy was retained. On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent another check ( this time for {$14000.00} ) to them and this time was credited with a payment of {$1400.00}. Again, interest was waived and their account manager told me neither the actual check or a copy existed. That I refuse to believe! My bank told me that they receive only notification of an electronic cash transmittal and no paper confirmation. No human being takes part in the process! Checks are read by computers and payments are processed entirely by computers. I have written over 10,000 checks during the past seventy years and these are the only two instances in which the amounts were misread.

Complaint:
Despite multiple attempts, I have been unable to resolve the issue of fraudulent inquiries appearing on my consumer report. These inquiries are not associated with me in any way, and I bear no responsibility for them. Their presence has caused significant mental and financial distress. As a victim of identity theft, I have no alternative but to consider legal action if this matter is not appropriately addressed. These inaccurate and fraudulent items on my consumer report have hindered my ability to purchase my dream house and provide for my family 's needs. The impact on my financial well-being has been substantial. For your reference, I have attached a copy of the letter I previously sent to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), which outlines this issue and seeks resolution.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Public record information inaccurate

Complaint:
Experian has continued to report an inaccurate and unverified bankruptcy that has no accounts included to support it. I have sent in notarized dispute letter after dispute letter with response from Experian response ; Bankruptcy has been verified with US BKPT CT TX XXXX ( The Bankruptcy Courts ), which is not true because The Bankruptcy Courts does not verify credit information. Experian will not provide me with any verification of proof that I have requested. Per the FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) : If the Credit Bureau can not VALIDATE the information with the ORIGINAL CREDITOR, they must remove said information from the consumer credit file. The Bankruptcy Courts emphatically has stated that they do NOT provide any information to credit reporting agencies, nor do they ever validate and/or confirm public records. It is the credit reporting agencies, and/or other third party providers who collect information regarding public cases from public records. Public records information is NEVER validated by the U. S. Court system due to the Fair Credit Reporting Agency PRIVACY LAW. My inquiry to the U. S. Bankruptcy Courts confirmed Experian Credit Bureau has never validated or verified these public record entries on my credit report, neither will they ever be by them. They further stated while they are NOT liable or responsible for any MISUSE or INCORRECT public records, nor the distribution of said information, public records may, and oftentimes are, reported by third party sources unawares to the consumer, and in most cases, incorrectly. Considering the information indicating a Fair Credit Reporting Act violation. Per the Federal Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( a ), Experian is required by federal law to verify through physical verification of the original signed consumer contract and/or judgment ( s ) all accounts and public information that you post on anyones credit report. Otherwise, anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail, email in fraudulent and erroneous account information.
