Company: TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS INC
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint because TransWorld Systems Inc. is reporting an alleged collection account inaccurately and without proper validation across my credit reports. 

On XXXX XXXX XXXX I mailed a debt validation request to TransWorld Systems Inc. at the address listed on my XXXX credit report. In that letter, I requested the following documentation : 1. A copy of the original contract or agreement bearing my signature to verify that this debt is legally mine.

2. A detailed payment history showing how the alleged balance was calculated.

3. Documentation demonstrating that TransWorld Systems Inc. is the agency authorized to collect this debt 4. An explanation as to why the account is marked as affected by natural disaster. 

The letter was returned to me by the U.S. Postal Service as " undeliverable '' in XXXX XXXX. 

There are inconsistencies in the contact information for TransWorld Systems Inc. across all three major credit bureaus ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ), which raises serious concerns about the accuracy and reliability of the information being furnished.

Company: Bounce AI, Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Bounce AI Collections is falsely reporting a {$17000.00} collection account that does not belong to me on XXXX XXXX XXXX. I mailed certified disputes to both credit bureaus and directly to Bounce AI Collectionsso dont try to say you never received it. I have the tracking and delivery confirmation. 
Under FDCPA 809 ( b ) and FCRA 611 ( a ), you and the credit bureaus have 30 days to verify the accuracy and ownership of a debt after receiving a dispute. It has been well over that, and I have not received one single document proving that this debt belongs to me. 
Lets be clear : sending me a bill is not verification. 
Sending me my own credit report is not verification. 
I already have my credit report. Obviously. 
Since its clear you dont understand what verification means, let me spell it out for you. Proper verification of a debt under the FCRA, FDCPA, and XXXX XXXX data-integrity standards requires : The original signed agreement or application with my name and signature, The full account-level transaction history ( charges, payments, adjustments ), An itemized balance breakdown ( principal, interest, and fees ), The Date of First Delinquency ( DOFD ) used to calculate the charge-off date, The assignment or purchase agreement proving Bounce AI legally owns or was assigned this debt, and The method and date of verification that you provided to the bureaus. 
None of that has been provided. 
Instead, I get phone calls threatening to sueillegal intimidation under FDCPA 806 and 807and incomplete reporting with missing XXXX XXXX fields. This account is coded Collection/Charge-off, has no original creditor listed, and even omits the dispute notationviolations of FCRA 607 ( b ) ( accuracy ) and XXXX XXXX 6.2.2 ( data completeness ).

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing inaccuracies on my credit report and requesting the immediate removal of specific accounts and items. These inaccuracies include unauthorized negative entries, incorrect addresses, and hard inquiries reported without my consent. These actions violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act ( FACTA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, which requires consumer reporting agencies to block or delete information reported without written consent. You have failed to ensure maximum possible accuracy, as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ). The reporting of unauthorized data also breaches 15 U.S.C. 1681b, which governs permissible purposes for obtaining and reporting consumer data. The inaccuracies have caused harm to my creditworthiness, and despite providing documentation, these errors remain uncorrected.

This is my final notice regarding your ongoing noncompliance with federal credit reporting laws. I previously disputed the accuracy and legitimacy of several items on my credit report, yet your agency has failed to act in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). 

Your violations include : Failure to validate the debt as required under 15 USC 1692g ( Section 809 ( b ) ). 
Continuing communication after a certified cease-and-desist request violates 15 USC 1692c ( Section 805 ( c ) ). 
Harassment under 15 USC 1692d ( Section 806 ). 
Recently, I received notice that your investigation was complete, but the disputed accounts remain on my credit report. These accounts are not only inaccurate but were never authorized by me.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
This complaint is about how Wells Fargo handled my workers compensation settlement check, issued by XXXX XXXX on behalf of my former employer, Wells Fargo . The check was drawn on Wells Fargo. 

I first went to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, CA XXXX Phone : ( XXXX ) XXXX The banker XXXX contacted Treasury Management. Treasury refused the check, saying it wasnt on XXXX, and told me I could not deposit it with a teller and had to use the ATM. 

I then went to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, CA XXXX Phone : ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX assisted me. Treasury again refused the check and said, I already didnt approve that checkwhat makes him think I will now? 

Following Wells Fargos instructions, I deposited the check at the ATM. Wells Fargo later mailed me a letter ( XX/XX/year> ) saying the deposit was rejected as an altered check. 

When I contacted the issuing company ( XXXX ), they confirmed Wells Fargo never called them. Every Wells Fargo department I contactedincluding ATM Servicessaid the same thing : the check simply was not yet in XXXX, which does NOT mean it was fraudulent. 

Because Treasury manually flagged and canceled my ATM deposit, I was treated like I attempted to deposit a fake check, lost over two hours in two branches, and incurred two overdraft fees ( only one refunded ). All branch calls with XXXX and XXXX are recorded. 

This was a valid workers comp settlement check connected to my employment with Wells Fargo. Calling it altered without verification feels discriminatory and unprofessional.

Complaint narrative:
Experian and Equifax has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit R Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian 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 Experian and Equifax 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 Experian and Equifax inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.
