Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
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. 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: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: Albert Corporation
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Albert and XXXXXX/XX/XXXX( issuer of my XXXX debit card ) for repeated unauthorized withdrawals. 

SinceXX/XX/2023 Albert has made 8 unauthorized charges to my XXXX debit card, totaling over {$120.00}. 
I contacted Albert multiple times to stop these charges. Each time, I was assured my account was closed and my payment information was removed. 
Despite this, the charges continued for over a year. 
I received refunds for only two charges, and those came through XXXX disputes, not Albert itself. The other charges remain unresolved. 
This shows Albert knowingly continues to debit accounts after consumers revoke authorization. 

This is a violation of the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( Regulation E ) and demonstrates a pattern of systemic consumer harm.

I have documentation of : All 8 unauthorized XXXX transactions, Proof of the two refunded disputes processed through XXXX, Records of my prior attempts to revoke authorization and remove my card. 

This is not a one-time mistake but an ongoing abusive practice that must be stopped.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
I applied for a personal loan with Navy Federal on XX/XX/year> and was denied right away so I gave them a call and asked for a reconsideration due to being denied off information they obtained from reporting agency XXXX XXXX that was inaccurate on top of Navy Federal telling me in a letter they sent out XX/XX/year> that there decision was based in whole or in part on information obtained in a report from the consumer reporting agency. Which was false because the next sentence stated, " The reporting agency played no part in their decision and is unable to give specific reasons why they have denied credit to me ''. which doesn't add up because the next paragraph states they Navy Fed also obtained my credit score from the consumer reporting agency ( XXXX XXXX ) and used it in making their credit decision. And that makes it illegal because as a consumer I cant be denied credit due to credit score, credit history, or income per 15 USC 1691 & 12CFR 1002. Each time I applied they denied me and I applied three times, and the reconsideration was never reconsidered it was basically me reapplying for the loan which they denied right away for invalid reasons. Any adverse actions in consumer credit transactions is illegal and I've tried several times to work it out with the credit union which all they did was give me the run around and not abide by the law the FRCA in set in place for these situations

Repeated texts from this agency regarding a debt I do not own or have knowledge of. The message mentions Missouri, which I have never even traveled to.

Company: ENOVA INTERNATIONAL, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I sent money to XXXX through XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/year>, and it was supposed to be available for pickup on XX/XX/year>. The transfer amount was {$400.00} plus a {$3.00} fee, for a total of {$400.00}, which was deducted from my bank account on XX/XX/year>. 

However, due to an error in the recipients name, the money was never collected. After 90 days, XXXX canceled the transfer on XX/XX/year>, and informed me that the funds would be returned to my bank within 7 to 10 business days. 

When I did not see the refund reflected in my account, I contacted XXXX. They told me the money had already been refunded and advised me to check with my bank. I then contacted my bank, which opened a claim but later confirmed that they never received the funds. 

Since then, I have made multiple calls to XXXX, but they continue to insist that the money was refunded. I have repeatedly asked for proof of the refund transaction, but they refuse to provide any documentation, claiming that they are unable to share that information with me. 

At this point, I can prove that the money was never credited back to my bank, yet XXXX has failed to take responsibility, resolve the issue, or provide the necessary evidence to confirm that they actually returned the funds.

This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not, that is considered identity theft. As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act, particularly under 15 U.S.C. 1681n, there exists statutory civil liability for willful noncompliance. This provision stipulates that any person who willfully fails to comply with consumer protection requirements may be liable to the affected consumer for damages, including potential punitive measures and reimbursement of legal costs. This underscores the importance of addressing and rectifying this matter promptly and responsibly.
