Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information is missing that should be on the report
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, 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: Opening an account — Account opened as a result of fraud
Company: Chime Financial Inc (PA)

On Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX, I received several emails from Chime related to a new checking account that was opened in my name. Over the course of several hours, I tried to contact Chime to report the account as fraudulent and receive additional information on what happened and how the account was opened. China apparently partners with XXXX XXXX, and I would call their joint operations as a scheme that is ripe for fraud. 

After several attempts, I believe Chime closed my account. However, I have no confirmation, as Chime does not have a fraud department nor any U.S. location or U.S. customer service, as confirmed by one of the many representatives from Chime that I spoke with. I would like to specifically understand what type of Know Your Customer due diligence that Chime is doing prior to opening accounts. I have credit monitoring and freezes with the major credit bureaus and XXXX, so Chime should have flagged concerns. Further, why does Chime not require a form of identification to open an account? And finally, how does Chime interact with XXXX XXXX? Again, due to the perceived poor internal controls and lack of due diligence and a fraud team, Chime appears to be an organization ripe for fraud that does not have the best interest of consumers in mind.

On XX/XX/year>, my checking account at Bank of America was abruptly closed and my deposits frozen. My Checking Account number at Bank of America is/was XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

I have contacted Bank of America numerous times over the past 10 months to unfreeze or at least be returned the money in my account to no avail, and was hoping the CFPB could assist in accelerating the process. 

Bank of America has communicated to me that my account was frozen following the deposit of XXXX Money Orders, one of which was purchased from a XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX and the other from XXXX. The total amount of the Money Orders deposit was approximately {$2800.00}. 

Bank of America claimed that the Money Orders were fraudulent, but would not explain how or why they were fraudulent. I have asked that they return both Money Orders to me, but they have refused. I also have asked that they release to me the unrelated deposits in my checking account, but they have refused to do that as well.

My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  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 XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX AND XXXX 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 XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 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!

I have made numerous attempts to address the issue of unauthorized inquiries on my consumer report, but to no avail. These inquiries are entirely unrelated to me and I am not responsible for them. Their presence has caused me considerable emotional and financial strain. As an identity theft victim, I may need to pursue legal action if this matter is not adequately resolved. These fraudulent entries on my consumer report have negatively impacted my ability to purchase a home and provide for my family, significantly affecting my financial stability. I have enclosed a copy of my previous correspondence to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) detailing this issue and requesting resolution.
