Recently, I did an investigation on my credit report which caused XXXX XXXX upon me and found unverifiable, invalidated, inaccurate, and questionable items that your agency didn't make sure it was reporting 100 % correct. 

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, everything has to be 100 % accurate on my credit report and Under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) these accounts are in violation of not reporting 100 % accurate.

" 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.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

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.

Company: OneMain Finance Corporation (CA)

Subject : Formal Complaint Against OneMain Financial Group LLC for Unlawful Wage Garnishment Practices. [ XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX ] Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against OneMain Financial Group LLC for their improper and unlawful attempts to garnish my wages without proper notification and due process. My rights as a consumer have been violated, and I request a thorough investigation into this matter. 

On XX/XX/2024, I was informed by my employer that they received a notice from OneMain Financial Group LLC to garnish my wages for the amount of {$2600.00}. To my shock, I had never been properly served with any court documentation regarding a debt collection lawsuit. I was not informed of a court date, and consequently, I was deprived of the opportunity to respond or defend myself in court. This lack of proper notification and service is a clear violation of my rights and the due process provided under the law. 

As a consumer, I rely on the protections afforded to me by the court system, including the right to be properly notified of any legal actions taken against me. OneMain Financial Group LLC has disregarded these essential procedural safeguards, thereby infringing upon my legal rights. 

I am requesting that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau immediately intervene in this matter. Specifically, I request the following actions : 1. Immediate Suspension of Wage Garnishment : Halt the garnishment of my wages by OneMain Financial Group LLC until they can demonstrate that they have complied with all legal requirements for proper service of court documents.

2. Investigation into OneMain Financial Group LLC : Conduct a thorough investigation into the practices of OneMain Financial Group LLC to ensure they are adhering to all legal standards and consumer protection laws.

3. Verification of Proper Notification Procedures : Ensure that OneMain Financial Group LLC follows proper court procedures and notifies consumers adequately, providing them the opportunity to respond to any debt collection attempts. 

I believe that this organization has acted in bad faith and has violated my consumer rights. Your prompt attention to this matter is crucial to prevent any further unjust financial harm to myself and potentially other consumers who may be facing similar issues. 

Please confirm receipt of this complaint and provide updates on the progress of your investigation. I am available to provide any additional information or documentation required to support my complaint. 

Thank you for your assistance in protecting consumer rights and ensuring fair treatment.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (GA)

I used Wells Fargo 's Bill-Pay to send a payment to my XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). The amount was {$170.00}. This was done on XX/XX/year>. The intended check was to be delivered to XXXX 's office. I have paid them this way previously as well. We have been going to this office for 18 years. 

On XX/XX/year> I received another invoice from this office so I called them to check. They said they never received the payment. I looked on WF 's website and saw that the check was cashed and I have proof of payment. XXXX claims they did not cash the check and suggested someone else did and it was not their office. 

I then called WF to lodge a fraud claim. On XX/XX/year> WF came back to me saying they researched the claim and in their view they were not liable and they closed the claim. 

In summary, an electronic billpay service sent a physical check to the correct address. Someone other than the intended recipient cashed this check. And now neither party is taking the liability.

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 XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach.
