Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (NC)

I attended XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/2019 for 3 days. On day 3 the school asked me to leave because I had a open court case and they were afraid that I might miss training time if I needed to appear in court, even after I advised them that my case was going to be dismissed, and I would never have to physically appear in court. After I left their school AT THEIR REQUEST, they placed a collection account on my credit report with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$270.00}. The contract which I signed stated I would work for them for a specified number of months once I obtained my Commercial Drivers License, and if I left the company before that timeframe, I would owe them for the cost of my CDL training. However, I never made it far enough to begin training for my CDL with them, so this is a violation of the contract I signed.

Issue: Unexpected or other fees — 
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (KS)

On XX/XX/18 I tried to cash a payroll check drawn from Bank of America at Bank of America. When I went into a Bank of America branch in XXXX, KS and I was told that a {$8.00} fee will be applied since I am not a banking customer. I should not be charged a fee to cash a check at the bank from where it was issued. This means that if I do not have a financial institution I am unable to cash the check for the amount it was written for. This is an unfair practice and a cost that should not be passed on in this manner. The check was written for {$830.00} and was essentially charged a 1 % fee to cash it.

Consumer complaint received 2023-04-28
Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan — Installment loan
Issue: Charged fees or interest you didn't expect — 
Company: REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION (OR)

I had work done on my house and got a 'Same As Cash ' loan of {$16000.00} from Enerbank on XX/XX/XXXX. The terms of the loan were that I would pay no interest if I repaid it in full before XX/XX/XXXX. 

I arranged with my bank ( XXXX XXXX ) via 'Bill Pay ' for the loan to be repaid on XX/XX/XXXX. 

My XXXX XXXX send the funds via paper check ( I was expecting an EFT transfer, which, in my experience, is normal for Bank to Bank transactions ). 

On XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from Enerbank stating that since I had not repaid my loan in full by the XX/XX/XXXX due date, I now owed the principal plus a year of 17.99 % interest ( {$2900.00} interest ). 

I called Enerbank that same day and, after waiting on hold for 55 minutes, I was told that Enerbank had not received my payment. I was also told that Enerbank does not accept ACH payments. 

I called XXXX XXXX where they confirmed that the payment had been sent, on time, but that it had not been cashed. 

I attempted to call Enerbank again, but they were closed. 

On XX/XX/XXXX I called XXXX XXXX and told them to cancel the payment. They agreed to send me a letter verifying that I had paid on time. 
On XX/XX/XXXX I attempted to call Enerbank, but they were closed for the weekend. 
On XX/XX/XXXX I attempted to pay via their payment website ( listed on the Enerbank statement as payments.enerbank.com, but their payment site would not accept the amount of the full loan, only {$330.00} monthly payment. 

On XX/XX/XXXX I called Enerbank. I was on hold for 1 hour and 20 minutes. At first, they insisted that I needed to pay the principal plus {$2900.00} in interest. I told them about the 'Good Faith Letter ' from XXXX XXXX and finally a manager approved canceling the debt if I paid the principal plus interest from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX of {$110.00}. With regards to their website not accepting my payment they said that their system had recently changed and perhaps I had the wrong website. 

I paid, but I don't think that I should have had to pay the interest. I suspect that they deliberately make it difficult to make payments and make it difficult to contact the company and perhaps 'lose ' checks in order to force clients to pay their usurious interest rates.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (TX)

My account with 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 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 months that are reported late 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 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! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports
