Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (PA)

My account with XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment reported in to be removed. 

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 


XXXX Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 


I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

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 Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

Issue: Fees or interest — Charged too much interest
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION ()

I recently received an 'error correction ' to my Bank of America credit card account. But it only corrected a small amount of errors I have encountered over the years ( inconsistent and excessive interest fees when no purchases were made, other fees aka 'junk fees ' being charged to my account ). I have not always, and most often not, received cash rewards consistent with my credit card agreement. I believe that alternative accounts were open in my name for a period of time as well due to strange calls and emails that would be consistent with this activity, so believe I am probably a victim of the misuse of my sensitive information. I am happy to have received some remuneration for all this, but it seems inadequate. The process that led to the amount I was credited is completely opaque. I am hoping for assistance in finding out how to identify what Bank of America genuinely owes me for all of these practices so that I can request it back. Apologies for the 'broad strokes ' message. I only just now became aware of the CFPB action against Bank of America and it gave me a little hope that I can come out of this fog and be fairly remunerated for unfair practices on the part of Bank of America. I hope this complaint is a concrete step in that direction. Thank you for your time in reviewing my message.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (PA)

Wells Fargo has charged my account over {$1100.00} for a claim they denied. Wrote me a nasty letter saying Im not part of their breeches when I have proof I was part of their breech data settlement back in XXXX. After that someone had access to my social security number and their name appears under my credit report which I reported to their crime investigator. After that my bank had a lot of bank fraud. I lost my XXXX which I have proof of that which I asked XXXX to wipe my data clean since XXXX and that person accessed my bank cards, passwords and started mining money in XXXX little by little out my account for over {$15000.00}. Again Wells Fargo claims they dont go back pass 60 days but gave me {$680.00} towards that claim of almost {$15000.00} and revered my other account for {$1100.00} that same day putting me in the negative. Corporate headquarters and bank managers printed me out statements all the way to XXXX and told me they will help me with past charges as far as 5 years that I did not do. Now they are trying to call me liar saying Im not part of the breech. Wrote me nasty letters. Corporate told me they are aware that XXXX there was a lot of fraud being done to peoples account. They were even part of a XXXX scam back in XXXX which is the activity I noticed in my account was a XXXX scam and in XXXX a XXXX scam. Nobody wants to help me not sure if its a sort of discrimination. My mental and physical health is ruined by Wells Fargo and their unfair practice and how they accused me of charges when Im part of identity scam which is caused by them. My life was fine before their settlement issues and malpractice. I want my {$15000.00} from XXXX someone stole and the charges of {$1100.00} reverse back to my account so I can start a new account. If not I will have to go the legal way because the emotional damage, XXXX XXXX, run arounds, lack of sleep and stress is too much for a loyal customer to go through. They dont care about me or anybody. Im just learning in XXXX I have letters coming for another class action lawsuit settlement for fees on my account.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (IN)

I am writing to formally dispute the reporting of a bankruptcy on my credit report. My bankruptcy case was discharged in XX/XX/year>, but the bankruptcy court never instructed the credit bureaus to report this information. While I understand that bankruptcy is a matter of public record, I believe the inclusion of this information on my credit report is incorrect and potentially violates my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

According to the FCRA, credit bureaus are responsible for ensuring that all information on credit reports is accurate and fair. Specifically, information can not be added to a consumer 's credit report unless it is accurate, complete, and furnished by entities that are authorized to report such information. As the bankruptcy court did not mandate the reporting of my bankruptcy, I am requesting an immediate investigation into the source of this information and the removal of the bankruptcy from my credit report. 
I ask that this matter be investigated promptly and that the bankruptcy entry be removed from my credit report. In accordance with the FCRA, please provide me with the results of your investigation and an updated copy of my credit report.

I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach.
