Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

I am starting the process of buying a car as my current vehicle has started leaking oil and I am trying to get a safe and reliable vehicle for myself and child. I decided to pay XXXX for a subscription so that I can start to shop and get the best rate possible. I noticed several inaccuracies, and accounts that I do not recognize including inquiries. 

I have requested several times for proof. These bureaus have failed to provide me with a copy of any viable evidence, bearing my signature, showing these accounts are mine and being reported accurately. I am referencing to Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) and Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA- they are required to " ... .promptly DELETE all information which can not be verified.

I receive a response back that the information is accurate and the bureau will then update my report still reflecting inaccuracies without ever supplying me with any proof. Who verified the inaccuracies? I have a right to this information so that I can follow up with them directly referencing Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ) They are in violation of Federal Law by allowing these unverified accounts and items to remaining my credit report. They are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditors documentation on file to verify that the information is not only mine but is also accurate. 

How is this fair? I have tried several times through written mail, phone calls and using their online systems. I honestly do not believe that a person is even looking at my requests let alone investigating my disputes thoroughly.

Finally, In accordance with the fair credit reporting act 15 USC 1681, my rights have been violated and these accounts continue to negatively affect me. I am starting to feel despair because I feel like I am being bullied by the CRAs and that they are counting on the fact that a single individual may not have the time or resources to resolve these issues.

I am not typically a confrontational nor litigious person. For months I have let this go as I had given up and just accepted the fact that I will have to deal with this. However, I realized that laws are made for a reason and are there to safe guard and keep in line for fairness and equality.

The law is very clear as to the civil liability and the remedy available to me ( section 616 & 617 ) if these companies continue to disregard and fail to comply with Federal Law, I fully intend on pursing litigation in this matter to enforce my rights under the FCRA

Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: ORG GC GP BUYER, LLC (NY)

This company has ruined my life because of their dishonesty. 
They initially told me that it would be {$600.00} on top of my garnishment to get out of default, an amount I could not afford. 5 months later that amount dropped to {$160.00}, which made no sense. 

When I asked if I had any recourse, if there was any XXXX I could go to to dispute this, they blatantly told me no, I could not appeal. 

Had they quoted a manageable number to begin with, I would be out of the garnishment and would have avoided XXXX I have made this year. 

I was not getting any of their communications -- including the ones warning me of the garnishment. I had to tell them XXXX times that my address had changed. 

Two days ago I asked if they could delay my payment 4 days. They agreed. I recorded the phone call as proof. It came out of my bank account as scheduled anyway. This will result in all kinds of fees.

I requested a variation of debt from them and I never received it. after I finally found what and who they were collecting for I was dumb founded that a year after the origination of debt I would be hit on my credit. now the significance of this being that make it seem to a lender that this is a fresh debt when it 's more than a year old. this a violation of the fcra as well. after speaking to a customer advocate she explained that thy would ensure I could make no purchase of a home or car unless I paid them. I have expressed willing to pay once it was an agreed on amount. the verification of debt must contain invoices.

Company: FIFTH THIRD FINANCIAL CORPORATION (TN)

I am reporting a man named XXXX XXXX. He calls from a disguised number and says he is the " Director of Hardship and Mitigation ''. Later he changed it to " Hardship and Litigation ''. He used to call me and just say he was collecting a debt but he has now changed his tactics with a " professional sounding title. " This man has been harassing me for years, and supposedly he says I owe money to a bank. I called the bank in question and they have no record of it, and are not suing me that they know of. 

He has called my parents and scared them, and threatened many times that there was a lawsuit, though i have never seen any papers for any lawsuit. He has repeatedly called my place of business, and my cell phone, when he does not have permission to do that.. I told him years ago to stop harassing me and he responded in a hostile manner. 

This is a false claim because if there really were some sort of lawsuit I would have been served papers. 

He keeps leaving cryptic messages, including to my parents, indicating I was in some type of danger. It scared them a lot and they called me thinking I was in the hospital or something. He stopped for a while, then started up recently, again insinuating that there was some sort of court case. 

Since I have actually dealt with other debt collection companies that are reputable, I know that he is phony.

Company: Nelnet, Inc. (TN)

In the last month, I have tried to make three different payments with Nelnet. The first payment was on the day it was due ( XX/XX/XXXX ). On the dashboard, it stated the payment was processing. It stayed " processing '' for 2 days then it disappeared and no funds were taken from my bank account. A few days later, I received an email saying I was passed due. I then tried to make another payment ( on XX/XX/XXXX ) and the process repeated itself. I then tried to make ANOTHER payment ( on XX/XX/XXXX ), this payment is currently showing as processing but I assume it will not go through again and I will get another email saying I'm passed due. I have tried to make contact with Nelnet on multiple occasions within the last month but have received no response. I worry this issue with their system will have negative effects on my credit score.

Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION (FL)

On XX/XX/2023, I received an email from my bank Truist about suspicious activity on my debit card for a transaction amount of {$2100.00} from a restaurant in XXXX. I had been in XXXX at the time but did not recognize the charge and called my bank immediately to report it as fraud. 
Upon calling, I was told that the merchant initially tried to charge my card for {$2100.00} which was denied. Then, my card was charged a slightly lesser amount of {$1800.00} which went through. 
I don't understand why Truist allowed the second charge to go through when they deemed the first charge of {$2100.00} from the same merchant as suspicious. 
I submitted a claim for a fraudulent transaction with Truist and provided the bank with all the information as requested. My claim was, however, denied by Truist.
