Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (GA)

I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Overdrafts and overdraft fees
Company: PNC Bank N.A. (TX)

PNC Bank and I have yet another discrepancy. Please beware everyone and sprint from this bank as quickly as possible!!! I have opted out of overdraft coverage, yet my account is overdrawn by almost XXXX. I called PNC and spoke with a XXXX or XXXX, on XX/XX/XXXX at around XXXX XXXX. She was very nice, but she did not help resolve my problem at all. I explained to her that my account was XXXX dollars and that I was confused because I have not opted in to overdraft coverage. I have screenshots showing that my account is " not opted in '' for overdraft coverage so one would expect for all of those charges to be declined. Yet PNC decides to let the overdraft swell to XXXX and I received an email message out of the blue. I always check my app and the computer version of my online banking and I had XXXX cents in my account on XX/XX/XXXX when I went to bed. The next morning ( XX/XX/XXXX ) I woke up to a message that I was all of a sudden XXXX in the hole when that was never what I saw on the app or on my computer. Mind you, it looks as if the charges that made me overdraft were not ACH charges that were going through. Why was this payment charge not declined if there were not enough funds to cover it? It was not an ACH charge. I did not opt into overdraft coverage for this reason. It looks like a slew of charges came through on the night of XX/XX/XXXX that made it become XXXX and some change overdrew. She explained to me that the order in which charges post is not the order that we see as a customer. She also told me that ACH charges go through automatically. My argument is that these charges were not ACH ( they were point of sale debits, payments, XXXX back-to-school haircut, etc. I would have NOT been spending money if my account had told me the correct available amount that I had in my account. I thought the point of having a " balance '' and " available '' on PNC accounts was so that I can see what my balance is versus what I actually have available to spend. I always see the " pending '' charges and those are usually subtracted to give me an accurate available balance from which I spend money. That was NOT the case this time! She basically told me that there was nothing they could do. I was told that I will now be charged XXXX dollars a day, every day until my account is brought back positive, for overdraft coverage that I did not opt into. I am a hard-working teacher and we only get paid once a month. There are about 10 days until payday. How am I supposed to pay XXXX ( XXXX X XXXX ) dollars in overdraft fees for coverage that I did not opt into? Please help... I am definitely closing this account asap. This is so crazy that a bank can even charge XXXX dollars a day for overdrafts- let alone for overdraft coverage that I did not opt into. I have had enough of PNC!!

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

On XX/XX/XXXX I sent out letters certified mail to each credit reporting agencies regarding the inaccurate and incomplete accounts on my consumer report. I have received responses from each of them stating that they have completed the investigation and everything as accurate. 

This is false because there are numbers of inaccuracies and inquiries on my consumer report that still remain. 

1. I never gave this creditor my written consent to run my credit, therefore, it is fraudulent and this is violating permissible purpose and needs to be removed. 
XXXX Date of inquiry : XX/XX/XXXX 2. I never gave this creditor my written consent to run my credit, therefore, it is fraudulent and this is violating permissible purpose and needs to be removed. 
XXXX Date of inquiry : XX/XX/XXXX 3. These late payments need to be removed because Equifax is reporting me being 30 days late in XX/XX/XXXX but XXXX and XXXX are reporting I paid on time. 
XXXX  XXXX Account Number : XXXX 4. These late payments need to be removed because Equifax is reporting me being 30 days late in XX/XX/XXXX but XXXX and XXXX are reporting I paid on time. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX 5. I am disputing this account for inaccurate information because you are reporting the date of the last activity incorrectly. Equifax is reporting the date of last activity as XX/XX/XXXX while XXXX is reporting XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX is reporting XX/XX/XXXX. Having the wrong date of last activity makes this account inaccurate because it does not clearly tell you when the account is supposed to fall off. 
XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX 6. This charge-off is past the statute of limitations in my state of Florida for them to legally collect from me. Since they can not legally collect from me, having a past due balance is inaccurate and illegally reporting since charge-offs can not have a past due balance. 
XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX They have failed to perform a proper investigation pursuant to 15 usc 1681 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( 5 ).

I am now requesting the description of the reinvestigation procedure pursuant to 15 usc 1681i ( 7 ). They have 15 days to respond the description or else above listed accounts need to be removed from my consumer report.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION (PA)

In XXXX of XXXX, we sent in our normal payment. We were a bit tight, so our XXXX  was helping us out ; they provided a check for {$500.00}, while we paid the rest. We included our mortgage statement in with the payment, just as we had every single time we did this process. Truist " processed '' our payment on XX/XX/XXXX. Unlike every other time we've done this, they suddenly forgot how to process multiple checks. They applied our check towards principal only and sent the XXXX XXXX  check back to them. Due to the fact that it took some time for the XXXX  office to figure out what was going on, direct the check to the XXXX, and the XXXX  to jump through the hoops required, Truist marked our payment as over 30 days late, even though we had done everything right. 

Fast forward to today. We are down to 77.76 % XXXX, our missed payment is more than a year in the past, and they still will not drop our PMI due to that 30 day late payment which was their fault, not ours. We have requested it to be dropped twice since it has dropped below 80 %. The first time was in XXXX or XXXX of this year ; when on the phone with them, discussing why they rejected us, their customer service rep saw the " missed payment ''. When told about what had happened, she was able to follow the trail and confirm that it was their mistake, but that too much time had passed since it occurred and they were unable to do anything about it. The second time was just this month ( XX/XX/XXXX ) ; we just received the letter of denial in the mail. 

What are our options? We are below the government-mandated 78 % level for automatic PMI removal, but they're still throwing their mistake in our faces. We've paid over {$1200.00} in PMI that I don't feel that we should have been required to pay, as they were the ones that made the mistake processing our payment.
