Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan — Payday loan
Issue: Was approved for a loan, but didn't receive the money — 
Company: Tribal Lending Enterprise, Inc. (HI)

XXXX XXXX XXXX sent me an email to get approved for a loan. I was approved for {$1000.00} on Monday, XX/XX/XXXX but accidentally gave them the wrong routing number due to the fact that my bank had changed names from XXXX XXXX XXXX Bank to XXXX XXXX XXXX Bank so I thought the routing numbers had changed. I discovered this on Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX when I hadnt received my money. I called them right away and corrected the routing number. They told me that they would wait for it to be rejected by the wrong routing number bank ( XXXX XXXX XXXX Bank ) and then resend to the correct routing number bank ( XXXX XXXX XXXX Bank ) when it came back to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I received a voicemail from XXXX XXXX XXXX on Friday, XX/XX/XXXX to call them to verify my bank account number and routing number. I called them and spoke with a XXXX who then called my bank with me on the phone. She verified my account information with my bank. She then stated that she needed to call her underwriting department. She did just that and came back on the line and said the loan had been denied. I asked why and she said that I would be receiving an email with the reason. I received the email several minutes later. It states that they could not verify my bank information?? I then tried to talk to a supervisor but she just made more excuses. In that time frame on Friday, XX/XX/XXXX I also received another invitation to sign documents for another loan from XXXX XXXX XXXX. Which was also denied. 

I want to pursue this legally. I feel what they did was illegal and was discriminatory. 

Thank you, XXXX XXXX

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

I see some items on my credit report that I dont know. It looks like someone might have stolen my identity because I didnt approve these accounts. Ive talked about this before, and now Im asking for these accounts to be taken off my report quickly. Having these accounts on my report is causing me stress. They dont show my real credit history or how I handle money, and its been hard dealing with this. If we cant fix this, Im ready to go to court to protect my rights and find a solution. These wrong items on my credit report are a big problem for me. Theyre stopping me from reaching important money goals, like buying a house and supporting my family. I hope we can fix this problem soon.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (OH)

I filed a dispute with Experian as to their investigation process for verifying and validating account ownership after I paid an account that I didn't own because Experian refused to remove the account from my credit report. Experian kept telling me that the account was verified as belonging to me while forgetting to tell me that Experian as a corporation receives monetary compensation for the information reporting to my report. After I paid the account, it reappeared on my credit report with a different company than before claiming ownership. I refused to be extorted again and I disputed this account with Experian, and they told me that the account was verified, which is impossible. On XX/XX/2023 I received an email from Experian saying my dispute results from a previous complaint i filed. 


I hit the link to go straight to Experian 's website and I was unable to see the dispute results as I was Instructed. I contacted Experian by phone, and they refused to give me a copy of the complaint report or give me access online to see the results. Instead, Experian told me they can only read me the results of the report and could not give me anything in writing. The report is evidence that Experian, never investigated the validity of the account, compromised my non personal information, profited off of the furnishing of accounts on my credit report and personal information that never belonged to me.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

I did not authorize these credit inquiries on my report. I would like to have them removed from my credit report or have the company provide the application bearing my name and signature and a copy of my ID proving that I was the person that initiated this inquiry. I did not apply for any credit with these companies. Please verify these inquiries and remove them from my credit report. I have stated this information to the creditors and they have not responded to my claim and this information continues to remain on my credit report. Under the FCRA, if the creditor can not validate the origin of the account and its accuracy and authenticity, they are required by law to remove it from being reported to the credit bureaus. This is damaging to my credit rating and causing me a lot of stress.
