Complaint narrative:
Upstart has failed to debit my bank account for the installment due each month. There are available funds, and yet my bank, XXXX, reports that Upstart is attempting to debit more than agreed upon.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: LA

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.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing the inaccurate and incorrect information that XXXX XXXX XXXX also known as XXXX XXXX has furnished to consumer reporting agencies regarding my account. Your reporting of this account has caused severe harm to my reputation, nancial standing, and overall ability to obtain credit for personal and household purposes. As such, you are in direct violation of federal law. 
Legal Violations Regarding Inaccurate Reporting Under 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 - Responsibilities of Furnishers of Information to Consumer Reporting Agencies, you are prohibited from reporting inaccurate information. Specically : 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) : A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 
By continuing to report this account inaccurately, you are knowingly violating the law and are subject to enforcement actions. 
IRS Classication of Charge-Offs and Its Impact on Credit Reporting The IRS explicitly classies a charge-off as canceled debt, which is considered gross income for the borrower. According to IRS Publication 4681 : " A canceled debt must be reported as gross income, and the creditor is required to issue a Form 1099-C for any canceled debt over {$600.00}. '' Since a charge-off is legally classied as income, it is inaccurate and unlawful to continue reporting this account as an outstanding liability or unpaid debt on my credit report. This misclassication of a charge-off as a still-due debt constitutes false and misleading reporting, and as such, the account must be removed from my credit le immediately.

Unlawful Double Compensation and Potential Fraud Furthermore, your institution has likely collected : 1. Insurance payouts built into the nance charge, which protect lenders against borrower default ( per the Truth in Lending Act, 15 U.S.C. 1605 ( a ) ).

2. Tax deductions from the IRS for the charged-off amount, as charge-offs are written off as losses.

3. Payment from third-party debt buyers, who likely purchased the account for collection. 
If XXXX XXXX XXXX has received multiple forms of compensation ( insurance payout, tax benets, and debt sale proceeds ) while continuing to report this account negatively on my credit report, this may constitute insurance fraud, tax fraud, and unfair debt collection practices all of which will be included in my formal complaints.
