Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc (MO)

Dear PayPal XXXX XXXX, I am writing this complaint to appeal the permanent limitation that was placed on my PayPal account ( email address : XXXX ). I believe that this limitation was placed by mistake, and I would like to request that PayPal re-investigate my case and consider restoring my account if possible. 

Firstly, I want to emphasize that I have not violated any PayPal policies. I have always used my account in accordance with PayPal 's terms and conditions. I have never engaged in any fraudulent activity, nor have I conducted any transactions that could be considered suspicious or unlawful. 

Despite my compliance with PayPal policies, my account was permanently limited, which has caused me significant inconvenience and financial loss. I strongly believe that this limitation was a mistake, and I am eager to have PayPal re-examine my case to rectify this error. 

I would like to request that PayPal reconsider my account status and restore it to full functionality. I understand that PayPal has a duty to protect its users, and I fully support this goal. However, I believe that my account was unjustly restricted, and I am willing to cooperate fully with PayPal 's investigation to resolve this issue. 

In conclusion, I respectfully request that PayPal re-evaluate my account and take the necessary steps to restore my account to full functionality. I appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to hearing from you soon. 

Sincerely, [ XXXX XXXX ]

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

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.

There was fraudulent activity ( of only {$9.00} ) in my XXXX XXXX account resulting in delinquency which significantly impacted my credit since earlier this year ( XX/XX/2023 ). I wasn't aware of this at first since I haven't used this card in years, let alone haven't banked with XXXX XXXX after switching banks, and also was distracted by personal matters like being laid off and in the middle of moving. I contacted XXXX XXXX and they've acknowledged this as a fraud, credited the account and closed it, and then instructed me to dispute this to TransUnion. After disputing about three times to TransUnion with unsatisfying results, they told me to report this fraud via FTC/CFPB and spare 7 business days to hear back from TransUnion.

Heres a letter Ive used in the past : Subject : Complaint against XXXX Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing this formal complaint against XXXX in hopes of seeking resolution regarding the reporting of negative claims on my consumer credit profile. I believe that certain claims have been inadequately or un-demonstratedly asserted, and I am deeply concerned about the accuracy and integrity of their reporting practices. 
My primary complaints are as follows : 1. Failure to Ensure Accurate Reporting : I firmly believe that XXXX has not taken adequate measures to ensure that my consumer credit report profile is reported factually, ethically, and in compliance with federally-defined timeliness. The reporting should also be physically verifiable and validated, adhering to the mandatorily utilized Metro2 Data-filled Field Formatted Reporting Standards without any omissions or deviations. 

2. Deviation from Established Reporting Standards : Based on my understanding of CDIA 's CRRG manual ( see CRRG 3-4 ), any deviation from the Metro2 standards jeopardizes the integrity of the data. I am concerned that XXXX may not be adhering to these established standards, which raises questions about the credibility and reliability of the reported information. 

3. Lack of Documented Proof : Despite my attempts to contest the reported information, XXXX has not provided sufficient documented proof confirming the accuracy and compliance of the negative claims asserted against me. As a consumer, I have the right to demand evidence of reporting appropriateness and adherence to regulatory requirements. 
I request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau take appropriate action to address my concerns and ensure that XXXX rectifies their reporting practices promptly. Specifically, I demand the following : - Immediate removal of any unproven or inadequately reported negative claims from their records and future reporting until they demonstrate provable adherence to reporting standards and regulatory mandates. 

- A comprehensive review of XXXX reporting practices to ensure that they comply with federally defined timeliness, accuracy, and completeness standards. 

I trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will handle this matter promptly and diligently, safeguarding my rights as a consumer. I appreciate your attention to this complaint and look forward to a positive resolution that restores the accuracy and integrity of my credit history. 

Thank you for your assistance in addressing this important concern
