I took this loan out at a time of serious financial hardship. I didn't quite realize what I was being charged. The pct.rate is 211.6558 % on a {$1200.00} loan. I have now paid {$2100.00} on that loan. That seems to me to be enough. Anything like what they are charging is, frankly, predatory. At a ridiculous 65 % percent.... I still wouldn't owe {$2000.00}. This is usurios.

Company: EQUIFAX, 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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being.

Complaint narrative:
" I was utterly shocked and devastated upon discovering unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries and inaccurate personal information made or reported without my knowledge or consent. Despite my efforts to seek clarification from the creditors, they have shamefully failed to provide the necessary information. I demand immediate action and transparency from the creditors. The creditors must provide detailed information on each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and types of credit products involved, furnish relevant application documents, and present evidence of explicit authorization for each inquiry.

Issue: Closing your account — Company closed your account
Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Apple Card ( issued by Goldman Sachs Bank USA ) closed my credit card account without notice or valid reason. I had active disputes at the time, but I always paid at least the minimum balance on time and never missed a payment. All of the disputes have already been resolved in my favor. 

I believe this account closure may have been made in error or as a result of the dispute process being misinterpreted by the system. I used the dispute feature legally and responsibly, and there was no abuse or fraud on my part. 

I am requesting that the account be reopened or that I be allowed to reapply without penalty. I ask that Goldman Sachs update my credit reports to reflect that the account was closed at my request, not by the creditor, to prevent any negative credit impact. 

Additionally, I request a written explanation from Goldman Sachs regarding why the account was closed despite timely payments and favorable dispute outcomes.

State: MS

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> I mobile deposited the check in which was made out to a friend and was signed over to me. I waited for about 4 days for the check to be approved. So I could withdraw the funds and then give them to my friend. It was approved and the funds were dispersed into my account a The next day, later in the afternoon, I got a notification that my account was in a negative balance. So I immediately went to check. Only to find out that they had then took the funds that they approved the day before back from my account leaving it in the negative balance. The day after that, they took the negative balance from my savings account. When I called to get some clarification, nobody would tell me anything at all. So {$700.00} was taken from my account with no explanation. It's still unclear as to why this happened and it's very unfair that my personal money it was taken, which caused a huge hardship.
