Company: MoneyLion Inc. (OH)

I received an XXXX from the MoneyLion XXXX XXXX. The payment was due XX/XX/year>. We had a financial emergency so I " chatted '' with them to try and move my repayment date. They were unable to do so. Therefore, I revoked my authorization for them to debit my account and was told that I would have to manually make payments going forward. I revoked authorization on XX/XX/year>. 

On XX/XX/year> XXXX debited my account anyway, even though I had revoked authorization with them. I " chatted '' with them again requesting my money back ASAP. I was told they had to research the matter and it would take XXXX business days. I never heard back so I " chatted '' with them again. Again, I was told they are still researching things and would get back to me. Once again, they did not. I " chatted '' with them once more yesterday and they claimed to not know what I was talking about and said they had nothing in their notes. 

I have contacted my XXXX and they have been less than helpful but I am in the hopes that XXXX will realize that I did in fact revoke my authorization with XXXX and will decide my dispute in my favor. 

There are clear violations of Regulation E here and MoneyLion XXXX should be penalized.

The conspicuous lack of concrete evidence substantiating its reliability, coupled with the circulation of unverified information, constitutes a flagrant violation of the statutory provisions outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). Such regulatory non-compliance is not merely disconcerting but also vexing, considering the paramount importance of adherence to legal mandates. Consequently, I emphatically endorse the prompt deletion of this account in alignment with the stipulated regulations, unless credible evidence is promptly furnished to affirm its authenticity. The failure to promptly rectify this matter further compounds the exasperation stemming from the disregard for legal protocols.

" 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.

I wish to dispute the presence of unauthorized accounts on my credit report, as indicated by your bureau. Upon meticulous scrutiny of my credit report, I have determined that these accounts are the results of identity theft. I initiated to contact with the company associated with these accounts, and they assured me that it would be removed from their records. I am aware that other credit bureaus have already removed these fraudulent accounts from their records. This discrepancy raises significant concerns regarding the accuracy and timeliness of your bureau 's reporting practices. Despite my proactive measures to address this issue, the accounts continue to be reported on my credit report by your bureau. In support of my claim, I have lodged a formal complaint with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) and have provided the bank with documentation demonstrating the fraudulent nature of these accounts. I respectfully request that you conduct a thorough investigation into this matter and remove the fraudulent accounts from my credit report.
