Company: Continental Finance Company, LLC (VA)

Verve violated the SCRA and FCRA by failing to place the account in SCRA status when I entered active-duty service, revoking my credit line, and providing negative information to a credit reporting company. After multiple attempts to get Verve to put my accounts in SCRA status, Verve charged off my account in XX/XX/XXXX. In XXXX, I filed a complaint with the CFPB within 120 days of my discharge from XXXX XXXX in XXXX and hired an attorney to send a letter to Verve to get them to comply with the Federal/State statue. Verve then retroactively placed the accounts in SCRA status and issued a credit leaving a balance of {$540.00}. However, Verve refused to accept responsibility for their role in charging off my account, which harmed my credit report. Verve 's response failed to acknowledge that under SCRA, a lender can not revoke my loan or credit history, change my credit terms, or refuse to grant me credit simply because I exercised my SCRA rights. A lender can not provide damaging information to a credit reporting company simply because I exercised my SCRA rights. The SCRA and FCRA required Verve to reduce my interest rate so that I could repay my remaining debts without it negatively impacting my credit file. While I understand the importance of repaying debt, I did not feel obligated to pay accounts where the lender refused to comply with SCRA ( capping the interest rate and relaying the new balance due ). Verve only agreed to retroactively limit the interest rate and refund me checks after I hired an attorney to send a letter and filed an official CFPB complaint in 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 Equifax 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 Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to Equifax 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 Delay Due to a Bank Transfer Error : My payment for XX/XX/XXXX was initiated on time. However, a processing error on my bank 's end delayed the transfer by XXXX hours. I provided bank statements and transfer confirmation showing the exact date the payment was initiated and the error acknowledged by my bank. 
System Outage on Payment Portal : During the period in question, XXXX experienced an outage on their online payment portal, which prevented me from making a timely payment through the usual online process. I contacted customer service immediately after the issue and have attached screenshots of my conversation with their support team confirming the technical outage. 
Incorrect Late Payment Assignment : The late payment was incorrectly applied to my account even though my payment history shows that I have consistently made on-time payments. There was no valid reason for the assignment of a late fee or the reporting of this late payment, and I have attached payment receipts that show consistent payments for the past two years. 
Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Equifax 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. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

I am rejecting this response because : The Credit Bureau recent response to my complaint regarding inaccuracies on my credit report. 

Despite my numerous attempts to dispute these erroneous accounts and rectify the situation, TransUnion has failed to adequately address and resolve the issues at hand. 

Over the past several months, I have repeatedly contacted The Credit Bureau, providing detailed information and supporting documentation to demonstrate the inaccuracies present in my credit report. Unfortunately, each attempt has been met with insufficient action and a lack of proper investigation into the matters I raised. This ongoing negligence has caused significant harm to my creditworthiness and has had adverse effects on my financial well-being. 

I am now seeking the intervention and assistance of the CFPB to help resolve these persistent issues. The Credit Bureau failure to correct these inaccuracies and conduct a thorough investigation is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Specifically, they have breached my consumer rights to a fair and accurate credit report by not fulfilling their obligation to investigate disputes properly and correct any errors. 

The FCRA mandates that credit reporting agencies must investigate disputed information and make corrections if inaccuracies are found. 
The Credit Bureau continuous disregard for this responsibility has not only violated my rights but has also perpetuated the damages being done to me as a consumer. 

I trust that the CFPB will take appropriate action to ensure that The Credit Bureau adheres to the FCRAs requirements and conducts a comprehensive review of my disputes. I am seeking a resolution that includes the correction of all inaccuracies on my credit report and a guarantee that my consumer rights will be respected moving forward.
