Company: REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION (MS)

Opened new account XX/XX/2023 at Regions Bank. 

Went to deposit my payroll check of {$1000.00} on XX/XX/2023. Funds were not available upon despoiling, I called the branch and was told it would be available after midnight the following day. None of this was told to me while in the drive thru of depositing. Later that day, the mobile banking application showed funds were being held for 2 weeks and my funds would not be available until XX/XX/2023. Received a email stating they were holding my funds due to my account being repeatedly overdrawn for 6 plus months and my account wasnt even a month old and it was never in a negative balance. I called the XXXX telephone number and was told to contact the branch to get this hold released. I have made several attempts to speak with the bank and branch manager to get this resolved and they have all be very inconsiderate and rude. They have made none of my funds available, they refuse to release the hold because they state they cant lose their job if the check is no good. They had a lot of time to get that check verified they day I deposited it or even business days afterwards but they refused to do so. That leaving me no access to my hard earned money. I have direct deposit but they first check must be a live check for one pay period before direct deposit takes affect. This bank falsely stating my account to be delinquent in order to hold funds is not right. They refuse to do anything and now have caused me to fall behind on my dues and providing for my children because they want to be negligent. This bank needs to be held accountable for their unlawful practices. How can they hold a official payroll check with zero verification of being legit for 2 weeks without making any of it available to the payee?? They stated if I would have came in and cashed the check and turned around and deposited the cash this wouldnt have happened. The Branch manager who refuses to help and is extremely rude is XXXX XXXX ( maybe XXXX ) not sure of the spelling. Something needs to be done in this matter. 

Thank you XXXX XXXX

XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Experian regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue. 

Account Information : Creditor 's Name : XXXX  Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. 

Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to Experian disputing a late payment reported by XXXX. I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : Payment Was Made on Time : According to my records, the payment was made within the required timeframe. Attached is a copy of my bank statement showing that the payment was successfully processed before the due date. 
Clerical Error by Creditor : There appears to have been a clerical error during the payment process, as I never received any notification of a missed payment. XXXX confirmed that no payment was missed, and I have attached correspondence with them to support this claim. 
Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Experian has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report. 

As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being. 

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the investigation of my complaint.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (GA)

I previously sent a letter to address the errors and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received a response even after 30 days. It seems like my disputes are being overlooked and I feel taken advantage of. As per Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since the deadline has passed, I expect these accounts to be updated without delay. If not, I may have to take legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Moreover, my information was impacted by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

Ive been dealing with this issue for almost a year now and Ive been given the run around the entire time. Ive sent four different applications for fraud and identity theft XXXX. I have also sent multiple times proof of residency and my SS #, Drivers license, police report, renters insurance, ledger etc. Nothing has been done, just continually denied. I called a week ago and was told it was in discharge, then I called today and was told it was denied. The lady had an attitude for no reason, so I decided to call back so I could speak to someone else and then was told its in a review then moments later in denied and then she sat in silence when I cried asking what else is it did they need because I depressed because of this. I requested to speak to a supervisor and was told they would have to put in a request for that. Huh? Someone called me back and had the nastiest attitude towards me. She honestly sounded as if she wasn't concerned with helping me. The next step is to try and find a way to get an attorney to help me with all this.
