Issue: Money was not available when promised — 
Company: DailyPay, Inc (IN)

I use Dailypay ( by XXXX XXXX ) to transfer payroll funds before payday for early access. I requested XXXX different transfers from Dailypay to my bank account for early access to my payday funds. The Dailypay app said it would take XXXX business days for the funds to transfer. After 5 days the funds never showed to my bank account. I called and emailed Dailypay to figure out what is going on and all they tell me is that the funds successfully transferred out and to call my bank for tracing. They provided me tracing ID 's and I called my bank. My bank stated that they have no record of those tracing ID 's and that they do no see those XXXX incoming transfers. They advised I call Dailypay back and request them to trace where the payments went. Each time I call I get told the same thing, that the transfers successfully went through but they refuse to trace the funds and see where they went. I have been patiently waiting for over a month for a resolution.

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

I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. 

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc. (IL)

I am writing to dispute inaccurate information regarding the CCB/XXXX  account XXXX account number XXXX, that is being reported on my credit report. This account is marked as a charge-off with a {$0.00} balance, yet it remains listed as derogatory. Furthermore, the account details show inconsistencies in the dates reported across the credit bureaus. 

I have already communicated with Comenity Capital Bank, the creditor for this account, to address these discrepancies. However, their response was that they are reporting the account accurately and they would not remove the charge-off or update the account. Despite this response, I am sure the reporting contains significant errors that are not in compliance with 15 U.S. Code 1681s2, which mandates that furnishers of information must report data accurately and consistently.

The issues with the reporting are as follows : The account is marked with a {$0.00} balance but is still listed as a charge-off, which is misleading and not reflective of the current status. 
The Date of Last Activity is reported as XX/XX/XXXX, while the Date Reported is XX/XX/XXXX, and the Date Closed is listed as XX/XX/XXXX. These inconsistencies negatively affect my credit standing. 
The late payment dates are not consistent and are not inaccurately reflected, and I request that you ensure that the payment history, including all late payment dates, is correct and consistent. 

Please note, I have asked for this information but have not received it from Comenity. I have attached their reponse.

I am writing to formally dispute the reporting of the XXXX account on my credit report. This account was previously removed but has reappeared, and I believe it is being reported in error. 

I have requested a 1099-C form multiple times regarding this account, as it was recorded as a profit and loss. This suggests fraudulent activity on my report, as it does not reflect the accurate status of my financial obligations. 

If this account is not promptly removed from my credit report, I will have no choice but to escalate the matter to the courts and the IRS. I will be reporting your participation in this fraudulent activity. 

I expect a prompt resolution to this issue. Please confirm receipt of this dispute and provide me with an update on your investigation.
