I am aware of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and request a thorough investigation into these inaccuracies, as required by federal law.

Recently, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) filed a lawsuit against Experian for its failure to properly investigate consumer disputes, citing sham investigations and other unlawful practices. These practices, as outlined by the CFPB, include : Conducting inadequate investigations that fail to address consumer disputes properly. Reinserting previously disputed and inaccurate information without explanation. Failing to notify consumers about investigation results effectively. These allegations highlight systemic issues that directly undermine consumer protections and perpetuate the inclusion of inaccurate information on credit reports. I am deeply concerned that my dispute may be mishandled in a similar manner.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Trying to communicate with the company to fix an issue while managing or servicing your loan
Company: FIFTH THIRD FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Dear Management Team, I am extremely frustrated with the handling of my request for a refund of a duplicate mortgage payment and am escalating this matter to your attention. 

On XX/XX/year>, I mistakenly made a duplicate mortgage payment of {$3100.00} for XXXX. The payment was posted on XX/XX/year>. I immediately contacted customer service on XX/XX/XXXX and was assured that a refund request had been submitted. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I followed up via chat and was told by a representative named XXXX that the refund was being processed and would take XXXX business days. However, when I checked in again on XX/XX/XXXX, I was informed that no refund had ever been initiated, and no one could explain why I was previously told it was processing. 

I had to re-request the refund at that point, and I was then told that it would only be issued via check, with a processing time of up to 14 daysdespite having made multiple previous inquiries and being misled by customer service. Additionally, there was no record of my initial refund request, which is completely unacceptable. 

This level of miscommunication and delay is unacceptable for a financial institution handling mortgage payments. I expect immediate action to expedite my refund and an explanation for why I was misinformed multiple times.
