I made a large payment to credit cards reducing both my credit card balance and my overall balance, resulting in 5 % credit utilization. Subsequently my overall credit rating with Experian and Transunion DROPPED by 5 % instead of improving. 
I tried to initiate dispute with the companies, but they refused to take claims on the subject. 
I have a screen shot indicating that all metrics improved resulting in significantly reduced Credit Score.

Company: Block, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
Description of What Happened I filed a dispute with Cash App on XX/XX/year> regarding unauthorized or incorrect transactions. At the time of filing, I was told the investigation would be resolved within 45 days. 

Despite this, Cash App later informed me that they did not begin working on my claim until XX/XX/year>. This was the first time I learned of this delay, and it contradicts the timeline I was originally promised. 

As of XX/XX/year>, it has been more than 95 days since my initial filing, and Cash App has failed to provide accurate updates or a resolution. Throughout this period, I have received false and misleading information from Cash App representatives. 

On one occasion, a Cash App support agent advised me that my dispute had been decided in my favor. However, instead of issuing a full refund, Cash App only refunded the international fee of {$13.00}, leaving the remaining balance unresolved. 

I am requesting that Cash App provide a final resolution to my claim, including payment of the remaining balance owed to me and compensation in the range of {$5000.00} to {$10000.00} for the extended delay and misleading communication.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: OK

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. 

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by theXX/XX/XXXX Experian, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I mailed a certified Debt Validation ( DV ) request and a Cease & Desist ( XXXX & XXXX ) notice to XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX is confirmed by XXXX tracking. XXXX later issued a response only to the XXXX request, and the response did not include proper validation. They provided internal summaries rather than original account documentation, itemized statements, or proof of assignment. 

XXXX also did not acknowledge or respond to the Cease & Desist notice included in the same certified mailing. 

Despite not providing proper validation and having a written dispute and cease directive, XXXX continued to furnish and update this tradeline. My credit report reflects an update to this account in XX/XX/XXXX, as shown in the XX/XX/XXXX report, after XXXX received both notices. 

Because the furnisher failed to validate and continued furnishing disputed information, I respectfully request that TransUnion : Reinvestigate this tradeline ; Require the furnisher to provide proper verification ; Delete the tradeline if the furnisher can not substantiate its accuracy. 

Please send all communication by email or mail only. 

Respectfully, XXXX XXXX XXXX

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit againsXXXX XXXX and Equifax, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where XXXX and XXXX has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as XXXX and XXXX inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against my loan servicer, 1666B, for inaccurately reporting multiple late payments on my credit report.

I was repeatedly told by loan officers at 1666B that my accounts would be paused, placed in forbearance, or temporarily suspended. Based on their instructions, I believed no payments were due during these periods. However, they failed to process the pause correctly and never notified me by email, text, or phone that the loans had become delinquent.

As a result, I was unaware of any issues until I reviewed my credit report and saw the late payments listed. I have attempted to dispute these inaccuracies directly with the credit bureaus and with 1666B, but the late payments remain, despite the fact that they are the result of internal error and poor communication by the loan servicer.

Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I deposited a check into my Truist Bank account. Shortly afterward, the bank flagged the check as high potential counterfeit. On XX/XX/year>, Truist closed my account without providing clear reasoning or offering me a chance to resolve the issue. 

After the closure, I provided Truist with a formal letter from the issuing bank confirming that the check is valid, the funds are eligible, and they will not be returned. Despite submitting this verification, Truist is still withholding my funds and has provided no access to my account, no written explanation, and no timeline for release of the funds. 

I have attempted to resolve this directly with Truist, including contacting their support and executive offices, but I have not received any updates or resolution. Truist is holding verified funds without justification and has failed to communicate or comply with standard account-closure and funds-availability regulations. I am requesting CFPB assistance to ensure Truist releases my funds and provides a written explanation of their actions.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Affirm Holdings, Inc
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
A collection account is being reported on my credit file that has not been properly validated. I exercised my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) by requesting validation of the alleged debt. The furnisher failed to provide any legitimate documentation proving that the debt is mine, that the amount is accurate, or that they have the legal authority to collect it. 
Despite the lack of verification, this account continues to appear on my credit report, which constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) requiring only accurate and verifiable information to be reported. The continued reporting of an unvalidated account is inaccurate and misleading.
