Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (NJ)

" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late.

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX XXXX  account [ XXXX ]. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Issue: Closing an account — Funds not received from closed account
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (NY)

In late XXXX, I went to Capital One bank in person to open a company account. Shortly after, I received an email confirming the account had been opened. Because the business account I wanted to open required a balance of over {$20000.00} each month to avoid monthly fees, I deposited over {$20000.00} gradually. However, when I logged into the app, I found that my account had inexplicably been frozen. The bank did not provide any notification. I visited the branch multiple times, but the staff informed me that I could only contact them via phone. Upon contacting customer service over the phone, I was told to wait for an investigation. The cash I deposited was earned from my company 's operations, and all transactions were made under my name. Despite this, my account was mysteriously closed, and I have not received my money for over a month now. This situation has significantly impacted my life, as I rely on this money for various expenses and bill payments. I have been worried and anxious for a month because the bank has not provided any resolution. I have visited the bank numerous times, and the attached screenshot is from my recent login, showing the date and account status. I am deeply troubled by the inconvenience caused by the bank. I believed that depositing money in a bank was safe, but it seems like my funds have disappeared without explanation. 
I've seen other internet users encountering the same issue, where their money was treated as fraud and taken by the bank. I am genuinely very afraid. This money is legitimate, and I have friends who can verify its source. The bank shouldn't treat a newly opened account this way. Please, I urge you to help me.

Company: CL Holdings LLC (SC)

I am distressed that you have included the information below in my credit profile and that you have failed to maintain reasonable procedures in your operations to assure maximum possible accuracy in the credit reports you publish. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be re-investigated. 
According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), you are required by federal law to verify, through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract, any and all accounts that you post on a credit report. Otherwise anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail, or email in a fraudulent account. 

This account is not mine and was opened using my personal identification without my consent. When any furnisher of information is notified pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 605B that a debt has resulted from identity theft, the furnisher may not sell, transfer, or place for collection the debt except in certain limited circumstances. Section 615 ( f ). Ive never given this company permission to contact me which according to the FCRA is also against federal laws. I have asked numerous times for this company to stop furnishing false information to the CRAs and also for them to stop contacting me. My next step will be to file suit. 
I demand to see verifiable proof ( i.e. : an original consumer contract with my signature on it ) that you have on file for the account listed below. 
Your failure to positively verify has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA unverifiable accounts must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, you must remove the account listed below. 
I demand that the following account ( s ) be verified or removed immediately : JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Reason For Dispute : Fraudulent Account, Account Not Mine, Unauthorized, Identity Theft

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (LA)

I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.
