Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
The info in my credit reports is wrong, making it hard for me to get new credit. When I apply for credit, the errors confuse lenders and paint the wrong picture of my creditworthiness. 

These mistakes seriously harm my financial reputation. So, I formally ask for them to be corrected and removed from my reports. It's crucial that my credit file shows my real financial status for fair assessments by lenders.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease — Billing problem
Company: Global Lending Services LLC
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I purchased a XXXX XXXX for which I received a loan from Global Lending Services ( GLS ). They claim to have a web site and I have made numerous attempts to set up the online account but I have been unable to. My email address shows that the account has been created and I have made numerous attempts to reset the password but when I do so, I do not receive a password reset link ; I receive a link that requires that I enter my password, which is the source of the problem. I have contacted the company and I receive overseas representatives who do not understand the problem and force me to continously reset the password to the same result. When I did finally receive a representative who appeared to be within the United States, they were supposed to escalate the problem to the IT department and the IT department was supposed to resolve the issue and provide me with information as to how I may access my account. GLS does not allow customers to communicate directly with their IT department which leads me to believe that they don't actually have one. If I can't access my account, I can't determine how my payments are being applied, I can't keep track of the outstanding balance, nor can I confirm what the interest is. The hard copies of the bill only provide the current payment due and the " payoff '' information. I have attached a file showing where the " password '' reset link takes me when I try to reset the password. 

In addition, I am in the state of XXXX wherein I have a XXXX XXXX grace period to make payments. I receive my checks on the very last day of the month and the payment is due on the XXXX, which is within a day or so of when I am paid. However, XXXX will immediately begin collection attempts for late payments on the XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
Im so frustrated. I called Transunion in XX/XX/2023 and told them I had inquiries on my credit report I didnt recognize. They in turn filed a dispute saying the credit cards I opened in XX/XX/2023 were opened fraudulently which was an absolute lie. I never stated that only the inquiries were. They closed my XXXX and XXXX accounts. They tried to close my XXXX XXXX account as well but XXXX XXXX told them it was definitely me who opened the accounts. I had to go through XXXX to get them reopened. The cops were called on me because they said I had a stolen XXXX card per my credit reporting agency. Ever since then I cant get any credit or even new cards for existing accounts. Its impossible to get through to them. I got through yesterday and was told it would be corrected. Once again I cant get through to Transunion and I refuse to keep paying to send certified letters. I need this situation resolved. I need them to contact whatever credit reporting agencies they contacted and undo what they did.I need them to put my two accounts that they closed back on my credit file. Im being penalized for being a victim of identity fraud and its absolutely ridiculous. I shouldnt have a problem proving Im me. The address on my credit file is correct so just send me my new card.
