Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
After discovering negative and unauthorized information on my credit report -Accounts listed below-, I suspected identity theft and immediately contacted XXXX to dispute the items in question. I provided the necessary documentation to support my claim, explaining that these debts were not incurred by me and were a result of fraudulent activity linked to the Equifax breach. Despite my efforts, XXXX denied my case, asserting that the information had been " verified '' and leaving the fraudulent entries on my credit report. This denial has caused significant distress, as these negative marks are damaging my credit and financial standing. I believe that XXXX has not fully investigated the potential identity theft tied to the Equifax breach and I am seeking further assistance to correct the errors on my report. I remain committed to resolving this matter and protecting my financial well-being. 

Accounts and address in question BELOW : XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX - Amount {$3800.00} XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX - Amount - XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX - Amount - XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX - {$670.00} INCORRECT ADDRESS : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Ca, XXXX

Company: LAND HOME FINANCIAL SERVICES
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I have been trying everything with my lender to resolve my payment issues. I fell behind due to reduced income and illness. I told them many times that I am better now and went through credit counseling and can resume my payments if they will just help me get current. Every time I call them, their representatives can't hear me, phone lines are broken up, there's a bunch of ruckus from the employees in the background yelling and laughing, etc, they claim they can't hear me and disconnect the phone. It's really bad and I feel desperate. I can't get past these gatekeepers who don't take my situation seriously. 

They had scheduled a sale date on XX/XX/ ; I had to fight to get them to try to stop it. Finally, on XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ID # XXXX said he " put in a work order '' to try to cancel the sale date. He told me to " follow up in 10 days '' - my house would have already sold by then. I brought this to his attention and he said he will see what he can do. 

I followed up every day even twice a day after that, and they did nothing. Every rep that answered the phone either hung up, or didn't know anything about the " work order ''. I was not surprised. 

On XXXX I called in and " surprise '' - they cancelled out my modification review packet and told me the sale date was still scheduled. 

Again, I feel like I am getting nowhere. I feel like I am in dire straights and they're not taking me seriously with these literal clowns who answer the phones. Laughing and joking loudly while I am losing my house. I can't get any information about MY LOAN from them, the people who are supposed to be helping me. I need some outside assistance to get help because this is a joke. Please help me before I lose my house due to these gatekeepers.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing the late payment entries on my credit report : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - {$0.00XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  {$0.00} These entries are inaccurate and do not reflect my actual payment history. Despite my repeated attempts to have these discrepancies investigated and resolved, no meaningful action has been taken. I have provided all necessary documentation to support my case and have followed up several times, yet these errors remain. This lack of resolution has not only caused financial strain but has also significantly affected my mental and emotional well-being. The stress of dealing with these incorrect entries is overwhelming. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a credit report that accurately reflects my financial behavior, including the right to have outdated or inaccurate information promptly corrected. I urge you to take immediate action to update or correct these late payment entries, as failure to do so is a violation of my rights under federal law.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint to investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report properly. Despite submissions, Equifax consistently responds within 24 hours stating the account is accurate, without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation. This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Equifax 's actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA, 12 U.S.C 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding ( File No. XXXX ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Equifax complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation. These are the accounts that I marked as inaccurate XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, key to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Cash App ( Block , Inc. ) due to inadequate customer service and unfair practices, which violate the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ). Specifically, Cash App failed to take timely and effective measures to prevent and address fraud on their platform, leaving my account vulnerable and unprotected.

Furthermore, their dispute resolution process was unfair and deceptive, as they did not comply with error resolution requirements under the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( EFTA ) and Regulation E. These actions have caused significant inconvenience and financial loss, and I seek appropriate redress.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I recently conducted a review of my credit report and found several items that have caused me significant distress. These items appear to be unverifiable, inaccurate, and questionable. Your agency has failed to ensure the accuracy of the information as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) Accuracy of Reports. This statute mandates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. 

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of Inaccurate or Unverifiable Information, you are required to promptly delete or modify any information found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable during a reinvestigation. If you are unable to provide me with verifiable proof of the accuracy of the disputed items within 15 days of your investigation, these accounts and the related information must be removed from my credit report.

Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I do not recognize any of the alleged creditors or debt collectors. I have never entered into a valid contract with any of these entities, nor have I engaged in any transactions with them. As such, these accounts are fraudulent and and inaccurate information.

Moreover, under the Fair Credit Billing Act, my right to privacy has been violated, and this breach infringes upon my rights as outlined in The Privacy Act of 1974. Removing the inaccurate and fraudulent information from my credit report will help restore my privacy and prevent further violations.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IL

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

Complaint narrative:
This card is new to me and I have not gotten used to using it. So, I was only a few hours late paying a payment ( 3 hours to be exact ). The payment I made was more than ten times the minimum. They have an AI chat bot that denied my request for a waiver of the late fee. I tried to get clarification from the AI bot they call " XXXX '', but it just changed the subject. A human would have seen the large payment and the so few hours late the payment was and made a different decision on the waiver. 

Also when I tried to download a transcript of the chat they forced me to take a survey, then at the end of the survey they would not give me a chat transcript. It just showed an error.

Company: Early Warning Services, LLC
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express regarding my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of my disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed the recovering the lost funds was impossible and tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. 
The lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.
