Company: Block, Inc.
State: SC

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 proce 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 for these violations.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information on my credit report that I believe is harming my financial well-being. I am aware of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and request a thorough investigation into these inaccuracies, as required by federal law. 



Recently, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau filed a lawsuit against XXXX for its failure to properly investigate consumer disputes, citing sham investigations and other unlawful practices. These practices, as outlined by the CFPB, include : Conducting inadequate investigations that fail to address consumer disputes properly. 

Reinserting previously disputed and inaccurate information without explanation. 

Failing to notify consumers about investigation results effectively. 



These allegations highlight systemic issues that directly undermine consumer protections and perpetuate the inclusion of inaccurate information on credit reports. I am deeply concerned that my dispute may be mishandled in a similar manner.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Experian for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report. Despite my submissions, Experian reports that my submissions are accurate, without any external evidence of a through investigation. This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Experians 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. 2025-CFPB-0002 ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Experian complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation.

Complaint narrative:
Ive been making payments to burns buy here pay here and my payments arent being applied to the loan. On XX/XX/year> I made a payment of {$640.00} which had me caught up. On XX/XX/year>, I made a payment of {$290.00} and was a payment behind. So, on XX/XX/year> I was trying to make a payment and it showed that I had to pay {$430.00} and I was confused on how or why did I owe that much. I reached out to burns and wasnt able to get through, no one answered. So I called the next day and same thing. I then emailed XXXX to ask her what was going on because now the portal was saying that I owed over {$600.00}. She replied and told me to call into the office. I explained to her that Ive been calling for a few weeks and didnt get answer. So, I called back and spoke with a rep and was told that only {$86.00} of the money that paid was applied to my loan. I asked for an explanation and was told that it went towards XXXX and late fees. Unless Im getting charged a late everyday, which wasnt disclosed in the contract, and even then theres no possible way that I paid in just two weeks timeframe of {$930.00} and still owe over {$600.00}. I need this matter looked into and rectified as soon as possible or I will be seeking legal representation to look into this matter.
