State: TX
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 mishandled my information which has led to a breach that puts myself and millions of others at potential risk. I am extremely disappointed with how equifax has handled reporting this breach. Very little was done to notify the public for nearly a month after the breach was detected. I received no email, letter, or phone call and instead had to discover it via social media. Now it has cost me several hours, some money ( to freeze my credit with 4 bureaus and XXXX XXXX ) and will continue soaking my time and money to deal with paying for and unfreezing reports as necessary in the future.This is an undue burden from a company I have never chosen to do business with - they are a vendor of my vendors/creditors. 
Going forward, Equifax should be required to monitor every account and notify victims if any fraud occurs. Credit fraud protection should be mandatory for every account, not an option for us to have deal with. 
This should be rectified firstly by making credit freezing free and refunding everyone who paid for it following this data breach. Requiring a police report is absurd when they clearly know if you were affected.

Company: Coinbase, Inc.
Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service
Sub-product: Virtual currency
Issue: Confusing or missing disclosures

Complaint:
At the begin ofXX/XX/XXXX, I started investing in XXXX. 
I send money to Coinbase and at XX/XX/XXXX, I have wanted to participate to an XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) named XXXX. This XXXX is possible via XXXX currency and smart contracts ( programs ). The principle is to send ETHs from a wallet to the XXXX XXXX Smart Contract and when the XXXX is over, it sends back tokens to the original wallet. 

I sent 4 ETHs and 5 ETHs to 2 different Smart Contracts but both are XXXX of XXXX. 

My problem is that Coinbase speaks about your wallet ( owned by you ) but finally, it 's not your wallet, it 's a technical wallet owned by Coinbase. And when the tokens come back to the wallet, it 's too late : the tokens are in the technical wallet but you do n't have the keys of this wallet. 

I have tried many times to explain that to Coinbase et to try to have an arrangement ( even if I am charged ) but I received no response at all.

Complaint:
Equifax and the others will be making money from the victims of the Equifax fraud as the solution, freezing the account, costs money. Equifax should not onlyl pay for each of these freezes and subsequent defreeze, but also set up a fund for the victims. 
Please do n't allow yet another fraud on the consumer victims be paid for by the victims when the responsible party gets away Scott free.

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:
As of XX/XX/XXXX I have been disputing with TRANSUNION via certified mail for the last year or so about a reporting error that needs to be corrected, Yet TRANSUNION always comes back and says that the account was verified as accurate. XXXX XXXX ACCOUNT NUMBER : XXXX continues to report that it is 90 days past due for XX/XX/XXXX. This can not be humanly possible seeing that the previous month XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX were reported on time. I have mailed in dispute letters with a copy of my drivers license and a actual print out of the actual credit report where the error is being reported, Yet month after after month I always get the same result without any real investigation taking place. This has caused a great deal of stress to me because it's clear as day that this account is being reported inaccurately! TRANSUNION has violated FCRA 15 U.S.C SEC 623 ( b ) Duties of Furnishers of Information upon Notice of Dispute ( 1 ) In general. After receiving notice pursuant to section 611 ( a ) ( 2 ) [ 1681i ] of a dispute with regard to the completeness or accuracy of any information provided by a person to a consumer reporting agency, the person shall ( A ) conduct an investigation with respect to the disputed information ; ( B ) review all relevant information provided by the consumer reporting agency pursuant to section 611 ( a ) ( 2 ) [ 1681i ] ; ( C ) report the results of the investigation to the consumer repo ting agency ; ( D ) if the investigation finds that the information is incomplete or inaccurate, re- port those results to all other consumer reporting agencies to which the person furnished the information and that compile and maintain files on consumers on a nationwide basis ; and ( E ) if an item of information disputed by a consumer is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified after any reinvestigation under paragraph ( 1 ), for purposes of reporting to a consumer reporting agency only, as appropriate, based on the results of the reinvestigation promptly ( i ) modify that item of information ; ( ii ) delete that item of information ; or ( iii ) permanently block the reporting of that item of information. I have attached proof for your review.

Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
On XXXX I emailed the company FAYE SERVICING ( XXXX ) This email bounced On XXXX I faxed the payoff request to XXXX Per the instructions on their IVRU ( XXXX ) On XXXX I called in to see where the payoff letter was in the process of being sent and was told that it was scheduled to be sent to me no later than XX/XX/XXXX. I advised that the house was scheduled to be sold on Friday XX/XX/XXXX so it was imperative that I receive it as quickly as possible so the representative said he would put in a RUSH. 
On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted them again and was dismayed that the representative had no notes of a rush and said that they would deliver the payoff by XX/XX/XXXX. 

I asked that they send me the payoff immediately and they said the department that handles those is off and that they would again send a notice that they would RUSH it but would have no way of guaranteeing that the payoff would be sent by Friday. 

Their IVRU issues a Stern Warning that by calling them we acknowledge this is " An Attempt to Collect a Debt '' and yet when a consumer is making an effort to payoff the loan they do not comply with providing the Payoff Letter in a timely fashion. They can not hold my loan XXXX to milk additional interest out of me. They need to provide the payoff letter asap.
