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.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NC

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.

I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Equifax comply with the federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I did finally receive the account statement after the fifth time requesting it. I have also asked for other information which has only been provided in part. The BofA sent a pdf file in response to the first complaint I filed against them. This included letters that the bank had previously sent out intended for me regarding disputes that had been filed in the past. The letters included were only a part of the letters that should have been sent out. This response also did not include the account statement I asked for. I now see why the bank gave me such a hard time. In XXXX of 2024 the bank debited over XXXX that had been sitting in my account for months. I was not aware this money was sitting in my account. Not only did I not get any notice in the mail because if notice had been sent out it likely would have gone to the wrong address but BofA did not include any information about this in the response through the CFPB. No notice no reason. Why debit this money out of my account.

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.

Product: Mortgage — VA mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage — Trying to communicate with the company to fix an issue related to modification, forbearance, short sale, deed-in-lieu, bankruptcy, or foreclosure
Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX, Mr. Cooper purchased my mortgage while it was under forbearance. When the forbearance ended in XXXX, I was ready and willing to resume payments. However, I was informed that there was no active account for me to pay since I had never made a payment with them. Additionally, the agreement I had with my previous mortgage companyto move missed payments to the end of the loanwas no longer honored. Instead, I was required to undergo a loan modification process at current market interest rates. 

Throughout the modification process, I remained in constant communication, yet Mr. Cooper repeatedly requested the same documents, dragging the process out unnecessarily. Meanwhile, they began reporting my account as delinquent, despite my efforts to comply. When I called to address the issue, they informed me I needed to pay approximately {$30000.00} upfront to bring my account currentdespite previously telling me no account existed for payment. Since I couldn't afford that lump sum, they continued reporting my account as delinquent, severely damaging my previously excellent credit score, without offering any alternative solutions.

Frustrated, I decided to sell my home to cut ties with Mr. Cooper entirely. I informed them the house is on the market and that they will be paid once it sells. Recently, at the end of XXXX, I was notified that my loan modification was deniedyet I just learned via a phone call that it had actually been denied back in XXXX, and I was never informed. 

Dealing with Mr. Cooper has been an absolute nightmare. My credit has been ruined, and Im being forced to sell my home much earlier than planned just to escape this situation. I wouldnt wish this experience on anyone.

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

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations.

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.
