Complaint narrative:
I hope you're doing well. I've run into a bit of a problem. While going through my credit report, I noticed some things that don't seem quite right, and it appears my identity have been stolen online. My XXXX, who's studying XXXX XXXX, helped me out by finding a way to check if my XXXX emails were involved in this breach. To my surprise, it turns out that 2 out of 3 of my emails contain a lot of my sensitive and personal information. I want to emphasize that I'm not the one behind these accounts. It would mean a lot to me if you could assist in removing the following from my credit report. Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about and take immediate actions.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally request the removal of several unauthorized accounts and inquiries from my credit report. These accounts and inquiries are not associated with me, and I did not authorize their inclusion on my report. The presence of these inaccuracies is the result of a data breach that has adversely affected my credit standing, leading to a significant drop in my XXXX score. 

Upon a thorough review of my credit report, I identified multiple accounts and inquiries that I do not recognize or authorize. These inaccuracies have led to negative remarks on my credit report, which are unjustly damaging my credit score and financial reputation. 

The inclusion of these unauthorized accounts and inquiries has caused considerable stress and concern regarding my financial well-being. It is imperative that my credit report accurately reflects my financial history and activities. Therefore, I request an immediate investigation into these inaccuracies and the prompt removal of all unauthorized accounts and inquiries.

Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX  and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 

I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated. 

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I was offered a job and sent a check for {$3200.00} to deposit into my Wells Fargo checking account. The full amount was made available the next day, on XX/XX/XXXX, and I was instructed to use the funds to pay local vendors for office equipment. At that time, I was unaware that the funds from checks are initially covered by the bank and not guaranteed by the sender 's money. 

Believing that I was using the sender 's check and seeing no impact on my personal balance, I attempted to make a wire transfer through my app. When my phone was blocked, I went to the bank, and, again, no employee informed me to wait for a few days until the check cleared to ensure the funds were legitimate. Under the impression that my personal funds were unaffected, I authorized the wire transfer. Only after the transaction did the bank employee mention that the check could bounce, which would directly affect my personal balance. 

I immediately contacted the fraud department, trying for XXXX hours to halt the transfer, but I was repeatedly transferred between departments, and my calls were disconnected multiple times. I eventually filed a claim to recover my funds. After 10 days, Wells Fargo responded, denying my reimbursement claim. 

I hope this situation can be reviewed, as the lack of timely and accurate information from the bank played a significant role in my loss.

Complaint narrative:
RE : Complaint Regarding Unresolved Equifax Data Breach Settlement Claim Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am filing this complaint regarding the ongoing and unjustified delays in processing my claim for compensation related to the XXXX Equifax data breach. Despite following all necessary procedures, including providing updated personal information that verifies my eligibility, Equifax has failed to resolve my claim or provide any clear timeline for compensation. 

Summary of Events : XXXX ) XXXX : I was a victim of the Equifax data breach. 

XXXX ) XX/XX/XXXX : I filed a claim for out-of-pocket losses and time spent as part of the class action settlement. 

XXXX ) Equifax 's Responses : Over the past year, I have received vague responses from Equifax stating that they can not locate my records and can not provide a timeline for reviewing my appeal. After providing my updated surname and the last XXXX digits of my Social Security Numberinformation that should have confirmed my eligibilityEquifax continues to stall without explanation. 

Despite my compliance with every request for additional information, Equifax has delayed issuing the compensation I am entitled to under the settlement. Their inability or unwillingness to resolve my claim in a timely manner is not only causing financial hardship but also exacerbating the emotional distress I have suffered as a result of the original data breach.

Company response to consumer: Closed with explanation
