Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligations 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 recent CFPB lawsuit against Experian highlights systemic issues, including the failure to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, reliance on unreliable responses, and inadequate notification of dispute outcomes. My experience reflects these failures, as Experian has neither corrected nor removed the disputed items, nor have they provided verifiable or specific information regarding the accounts in question. I am including examples of Experian 's vague dispute responses that fail to reference which accounts were verified, as well as Experians responses to my prior CFPB complaints, which similarly lack adequate details or verifiable information for each disputed account. These examples have been attached for your review.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against TransUnion for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report. Despite my submissions, TransUnion 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 ( FRCA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Transunion '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. 2025-CFPB-0002 ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure TransUnion complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation. These are the accounts that I marked as inaccurate as follows : First Progress {$140.00}, Heights Fin {$2700.00}, XXXX {$9400.00}, XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX {$2500.00}, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX$140.00}.

Complaint narrative:
I was contacted by a debt collection agency called Apex Recovery Services. They have contacted me by e-mail and phone and have accurate personal information about me including my date of birth, my address, my Social Security last four digits, and phone number. They are saying that I owe {$1500.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have not ever applied for a loan through this company and this money was transferred to an account which I do not own from a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  with the routing number ending in XXXX, and bank account number ending in XXXX. They said this was an online application and are collecting the debt for the above amount. This does not show on my credit history as a loan or any type of account. I also have my credit frozen on all three credit bureaus so I do not believe the debt collection agency is a legitimate company as I can not find them on XXXX XXXX XXXX or any other source.

Company: OneMain Finance Corporation
State: MS

Complaint narrative:
While working with the lender I noticed there were additional fee 's I wasn't expecting. I was in a position where I needed to extend my line of credit and took out an additional loan later on. With this, I asked for reductions of the fees and during repayment I was receiving dozens of collection calls on day or or day after due dates. This went from 5 or 6 calls a day once or twice per week to 15-20 calls per day from random numbers. There were calls coming in often times back to back 7-8 times each and multiple time during the day. I cut all contact with the lender after asking that they stop calling me so often. I was told that this was automated and there weren't any settings they had that would stop this. I started blocking numbers at that point considering the calls were coming from XXXX CST to XXXX CST multiple times per day and each day of the week. The FDCPA specifically prohibits the consistent calling of customers. The 777 rule was enacted to prevent this harassing tactic.

I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of 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 me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that 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
