Complaint narrative:
Complaint Title : Inaccurate Auto Loan Reporting XXXX Late Payments Reported by CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP -- - What is the problem? 
I am disputing multiple inaccurate and unverifiable late payments reported by CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP regarding a past-due auto loan. 

The credit report includes the following details : Furnisher Name : CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP Account Number : XXXX Account Type : Auto Loan Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Reported Status : XXXX late payments ; {$8400.00} past due as of XX/XX/XXXX Last Payment Made : August 26, 2020 Monthly Payment : {$0.00} Terms : 48 Months Original Loan Balance : {$7700.00} Current Balance : {$8400.00} There are multiple problems with this account reporting : XXXX. The loan is reporting a higher balance than originally financed, with no proof of accrued interest or legitimate penalties. 


XXXX. The account shows no monthly payment, which contradicts the original auto financing agreement and implies the loan has been closed or defaulted without written notice. 


XXXX. There are XXXX reported late payments, but the last payment recorded is from XX/XX/XXXX, which raises questions about how those late payments are calculated. 


XXXX. The past-due amount matches the balance, suggesting a misapplication of payments or failure to apply them properly. 


XXXX. No current contract, statements, or payment schedule has been provided to verify this debt or its terms.

-- - Violations of Federal Law : This account likely violates multiple federal consumer laws, including : 1. Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 15 U.S. Code 1681 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) A data furnisher may not report inaccurate or misleading information.

1681s-2 ( b ) After receiving a dispute, furnishers must investigate and verify accuracy or remove the information.

1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) Unverifiable items must be deleted from the credit report.

2. Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) 15 U.S. Code 1601 Requires clear disclosure of all terms, including interest rates and payment schedules.

Failure to disclose how this account accrued over the original balance may violate TILAs Regulation Z.

3. Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) 15 U.S. Code 1692 If any third-party collector was used, they must provide proof of the debt upon request.

Reporting inflated or outdated debt is considered misleading and deceptive.

4. State Uniform Commercial Code ( UCC ) Article 9 UCC rules apply to secured auto loans. The lender must show legal possession or assignment of title, and can not misrepresent ownership, balance, or repayment history.

State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I was a victim of a scam involving a fraudulent check that I deposited in good faith at a Truist Bank branch. The bank released the funds temporarily for XXXX days, but later withdrew the money after discovering the check was invalid. During this time, the scammer asked me to return the money, claiming they no longer wanted to proceed with the purchase. 
Believing the check was valid, I returned the funds. I have filed a police report against the scammer. 
I have formally requested Truist Bank to investigate the matter fully and to not hold me responsible for funds that were taken from me under false pretenses. Despite my requests, XXXX has not provided a satisfactory resolution or response. 
I am seeking assistance from CFPB to ensure that Truist Bank conducts a proper investigation, clears me of liability, and does not report this incident negatively to any credit bureaus.

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX and XX/XX/year>, I formally submitted written dispute letters to all three credit bureausEquifax, Experian, and XXXX several inaccurate and/or unverifiable accounts reporting negative information on my credit reports. These accounts either contained incorrect payment statuses, outdated information, or were listed without proper verification under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Despite providing clear notice and supporting documentation requesting investigation and removal, some of these accounts remain on my reports. I specifically challenged the accuracy of certain late payments, charge-off statuses, and collections that are either incomplete, misreported, or no longer legally reportable due to age or lack of verification. 

In some cases, the companies failed to provide sufficient verification within the XXXX window mandated by law, yet the items were not removed. I also sent follow-up requests directly to the original creditors and/or collection agencies when applicable. 

I am filing this complaint to request the CFPB 's assistance in ensuring full compliance with federal law, including the deletion of any account information that can not be verified, is inaccurate, or is being reported beyond the allowed time period.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I mailed a formal dispute letter and an official Identity Theft Report to Equifax via XXXX Mail ( tracking number : XXXX ). This correspondence notified Equifax of multiple fraudulent accounts appearing on my credit report, which were opened as a direct result of identity theft. I specifically requested that these accounts be blocked from my credit report under the provisions of 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

According to USPS tracking, this letter was delivered to Equifax on XX/XX/year>. 

Upon review of my Equifax credit report as of XX/XX/year>, Equifax has only partially complied with my request. While XXXX of the identified fraudulent accounts have been removed or blocked, a third fraudulent account, which is a charged-off account with the largest balance, remains on my credit report. This account, specifically a charged-off closed credit card account, is also a direct result of identity theft and was clearly identified in my original dispute and Identity Theft Report. 

Equifax has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 to block all information on my credit report that resulted from identity theft within four business days of receiving my valid identity theft report and detailed request. I have not received any official dispute results or notification from Equifax regarding this remaining fraudulent account. 

My desired resolution is for Equifax to immediately and permanently block this remaining fraudulent charged-off account from my credit report, as it is a result of identity theft.
