Company: National Credit Systems,Inc. (TX)

THIS IS RIDICULOUS FIRST OFF THE LEASE WAS SIGNED XX/XX/XXXX. THIS FRAUDULENT LEASE ALTHOUGH IT HAS THE CORRECT MOVE IN AND MOVE OUT DATES ON IT, ITS DATED FOR XX/XX/XXXX. THATS BECAUSE THIS UNSIGNED LEASE WAS CREATED TO DEFRAUD ME. THATS WHY THEY CANT PRODUCE A SIGNED LEASE WITH THE GARAGE ADDED TO THE RENT. IN ADDITION THE RENT AMOUNTS THEY SHOW ARE CORRECT BECAUSE THEY DIDNT CHANGE THAT AMOUNT THEY JUST ATTEMPTED TO ADD IT TO MY LEASE AND CHARGE ME FOR IT PLUS DAMAGE TO IT BUT THEIR ATTEMPT FELL SHORT BY NOT ADJUSTING THE RENT NUMBERS. IN ADDITION TO THAT THE ITEMIZED LIST OF CHARGES ARE MISSING SEVERAL ITEMS THEY CHARGED ME FOR LATER IN THE DOCUMENT. I WOULD LIKE TO END BY SAYIND ALL THE CHARGES INCURRED BY ME ALLEDGEDLY ARE POSITIVE AMOUNTS IN THE LEDGER AND THE NEGATIVE AMOUNTS ARE ALLEDGEDLY WHAT THEY REFUNDED ME. WHY THEN IS THIS STILL ON MY RECORD BECAUSE ACCORDING TO THEIR OWN RECORDS THEY OWE ME A CREDIT OF OVER {$7000.00} AS IT IS ENTERED AS A NEGATIVE AMOUNT NOT A POSITIVE AMOUNT. I WILL RESUBMIT THIS DISPUTE WITH THE PAPER THEY PROVIDED NOTED AND DETAILED ILLUSTRATING THEIR FRAUDULENT PRACTICES. HOW DOES THE CFPB JUST CLOSE THIS OUT WITHOUT DOING ANY KIND OF INVESTIGATION TO FIND OUT THE OBVIOUS WHICH IS THE DATES DONT EVEN MATCH UP THERE ARE NO SIGNATURES ETC. WHAT A JOKE.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (GA)

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.

Ive made several attempts to this company to stop reporting inaccurate information on my credit report, they refuse to do so and its causing me a world of trouble and stress. They did not complete a Social Security Form 3288 ( SSA-3288 ), which is required for permissible purpose under FCRA. This raises serious concerns about the legitimacy of the information reported, as well as the adherence to privacy regulations. I obtained my credit report it is reporting numerous inaccurate negative accounts. This has not only damaged my right to extend credit but it has made loose hope and trust within the banking system. I have been denied credit cards home loans because of this and my character has not only been defamed but my mental and physical health have suffered greatly. There is no law that says a consumer reporting agency MUST furnish information about a consumer which is why congress made it very clear that experian, XXXX, XXXX ASSUMED this VITAL role pursuant to 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 3 ). Also, Experian, XXXX, XXXX failed to be fair and respect my privacy according to 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ). I am requesting valid proof and documentation that these negative items were investigated fairly and properly. Experian, XXXX, and XXXX is in violation of several federal laws including responsibility they have to protect my privacy. Im giving these consumer reporting agencies the opportunity to make this matter right by way of the following ; REMOVE ACCOUNTS, REMOVE LATE PAYMENTS, REMOVE INQUIRIES, REMOVE INACCURATE PERSONAL INFORMATION.These fraudulent accounts consists of a Auto loan account opoened : XX/XX/XXXX, under account number:XXXX, Action Collection account Opened XX/XX/XXXX Account Number XXXX, Late Payment From Account XXXX Date XX/XX/XXXX.

I am writing to formally dispute the presence of unauthorized and inaccurate accounts and inquiries on my credit report, which I received on [ Date of Credit Report ]. After a careful review, I have identified multiple accounts and credit inquiries that I did not initiate, authorize, or recognize. These entries appear to have been added to my credit report in error or as a result of fraudulent activity.The inclusion of these erroneous items has unfairly impacted my credit score and overall financial standing. This matter is causing significant concern, as my credit history is being unjustly damaged by information that is neither accurate nor reflective of my true financial activities.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (GA)

My account with was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX  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 60 days 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.

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!
