State: FL
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
On XXXX XXXX 2017 Hurricane Irma hits XXXX. Therefore, I was out of work for an entire month. This represented a huge cut on my income. I was struggling to make payments on the car loan for the first time since I purchased the vehicle. I spoke to the bank and requested to give me a grace period but they denied my request. In addition to this ordeal, on XX/XX/XXXX my XXXX year old son drove my car and totaled the vehicle. Unfortunately, Insurance company refused to cover the expenses due to the fact that he was not added to the insurance policy. I had no choice but to let the bank repossessed the vehicle. I was left without a car and with a negative remark on my credit report.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MO
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:
Equifax did not properly secure my protected personal information from intrusion, such as through appropriate patching, 2-factor authentication at the point of service, segmentation of data, etc. As such, it appears my full name, Social Security numbers, birth date, addresses, credit cards, and possibly driver license number is cross-matched to each other and in the hands of criminals who can use this data to breach any number of accounts in perpetuity such as my banking and financial data, medical data, legal complaints, political data, and any other number of sensitive accounts.
Further, I am unable to secure these accounts because they ask for the very personal information that is breached in order to verify my identity and approve a change.
Equifax is currently offering a limited credit monitoring service. It is the onus of the victim to search out this information and service, and the service itself looks like an unreliable third-party website asking for 2/3 of one 's social security number plus last name and most importantly, a waiver of all class action recourse in order to discover if one is among the breached accounts, only changed to waive class action recourse from the third party site if it too is breached with the sensitive data it is querying once the news of this spread. This is insufficient to the need created by their negligent protection of my information, which I did not give them myself, but which they curated as their business from other businesses.

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 contacted XXXX credit reporting agency today XXXX/XXXX/2018 to verify that there are no negative accounts reporting on my credit report. I had a few accounts that did not belong on my credit report and disputed them. XXXX did there investigation and it was confirmed to delete the negative accounts. I am very pleased that it was confirmed there are no negative accounts on my equifax credit report however upon checking my XXXX XXXX account there is a history code with a number 1 next to it which means there was a late payment I resolved this issue with XXXX directly months ago and it was agreed they would remove that code which they still did not do. Upon speaking with the equifax rep I was advised that some of my accounts are not reporting a history code. I was advised to contact the creditors to ask them to please report the history code on these accounts as they are all accounts that are positive and in excellent standing which helps my credit score. I did not get anywhere so I am complaining to the cfpb in hopes of resolving this issue. The accounts that are not listing my history is " Barclay 's card '' I have 2 accounts with them. Another account is XXXX XXXX '' I also have 2 accounts with them as well. Another account is my XXXX XXXX accounts that are also not reporting the history. All of these accounts on my part are showing as Paid as Agreed Never Late however on equifax 's part this information is not showing. I was advised if my credit is pulled they will not see these comments. Which would affect me in obtaining credit. I am doing as I was advised by XXXX

Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: You told them to stop contacting you, but they keep trying

Complaint:
Almost every day for the past month or so maybe almost 2 I have been receiving calls from Consumer Portfolio Services I know that its their job to get a hold of me but the first thing that they ask for is my SSN and I stated that I can not give it to them since I am in the center of my building that I ca n't say it out lound and I asked them to reach me on my mobile phone which they only tried once. Since then they call my work at least once a day if not twice. I just found out this morning that they some how got my Bosses home phone number. I have no idea how but at that point it seems like harassment to my boss and she has absolutely nothing to do with this debt collector or my loan.

Company: Northland Group Inc
State: FL
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Threatened to contact someone or share information improperly
Sub-issue: Talked to a third-party about your debt

Complaint:
Company was persistent and I told them to not call me anymore. Then one day, I received a call from my mother advising that she was informed about my debt from this debt collector. I do n't believe it was right to release this information, as they informed her about the amount I owed. This was my first issue with the debt collector. 

Then, in good faith I began to have scheduled payments taken out of my bank account every month with them in 2015, then one month I called in advance advising them that I had a new job and since I now would be working with the state, I would be paid monthy instead of biweekly and needed to have a payment date moved. They agreed. However, the amount was still taken out of my account and I received overdraft fees. 

I then, called and asked them to reverse this. And the debt collector said that I never had called. I find this to be unethical. I did everything I could to do the right thing. I had to call my bank and tell them that this was unauthorized.

Sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Complaint:
I have disputed the referenced accounts to the 3 main credit bureaus and do not owe your company anything. I dont know this company and I do not recall ever having this debt and appears to be fraud, see attached FTC Report. Moreover, no adequate information has been given and noticed these accounts appear to violate my rights as well, per 15 USC 1692 ( e ) ( f ) ( g ). Moreover, you stated the account was verified as accurate by law 15 USC 1681 ( e ). Per 15 USC 1681 ( e ) The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. Investigations weren't completed as described by law and no factual information should be on credit reports. Im requesting removal of accounts and/or monetary compensation due to violations of my rights. Im currently seeking litigation regarding consistent harassment, unfair debt practices, adding without my permission/authorization within 5 days and more. As the original creditor, only I can validate the debt therefore Im requesting removal and this account violates my consumer rights in several ways. Please remove and provide some updates within 4 days of receipt, as this has been ongoing for over 3-4 months.

Sub-issue: Problem accessing account

Complaint:
I am not able to withdraw funds from three UGMA accounts ( I am the custodian of the accounts ) at Ally Bank because the bank is basically unreachable. Recently, its telephone wait times have been ridiculously long and it has not responded to secured messages that I sent to it on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. 

On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I complained to the bank about both the long wait time ( about 1 hour ) to reach a customer service representative and its inoperative chat system. Ally Bank never responded to that secured message. 

On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I sent a second secured message to Ally Bank because the wait time to speak to a customer service representative was about 40 minutes. This time, I gave detailed instructions about the three withdrawals that I wanted to make. Ally Bank has also not responded to this second secured message. 

Today, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, the wait to speak to an Ally Bank representative is again about 30 minutes and its chat service is once again unavailable.

Ally Bank is an Internet Bank and needs to be easily reachable by both telephone and its chat system. It should not be allowed to conduct business in this manner.
