Complaint narrative:
I have submitted multiple formal dispute letters to Experian Information Solutions Inc. regarding inaccurate and unverifiable information on my credit report ( see attached copies ). Despite clear legal notice, Experian Information Solutions Inc. continues to willfully report inaccurate data in violation of FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), 1681i, and FDCPA 1692e and 1692f. I have exhausted all attempts to resolve this matter directly with the credit bureau. I now request the CFPB to investigate and enforce compliance.

Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you -- credit reporting agency, block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint. I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

You have reported inaccurate and unauthorized accounts on my credit report, which is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) requiring a proper reinvestigation of disputed items, and 1681e ( b ), which mandates maximum possible accuracy.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> I mailed a letter to Equifax XXXX regards to a XXXX XXXX on my credit report that does not have permissible purpose of being there. In the letter I provided a copy of my passport, social security card, and utility bill to confirm my identity and so they can investigate this and fix this matter to be compliant with the FCRA laws they are regulated by. Equifax sent a report back dated XX/XX/year> which states that the inquiries are a factual record but has not explained what processed they used to verify and investigate this. They are still reporting an inquiry that violates FCRA laws and is not reporting to maximum possible accuracy. I would greatly like to be a first time homebuyer and Equifax 's lack of ensuring maximum accuracy on my credit report is stopping me from doing this.

Company: Bridgecrest Acceptance Corporation
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>2025, I made a payment of {$560.00} to my auto loan company under the belief that it would help reinstate my loan and allow me to recover my vehicle after repossession. No one informed me prior to payment that full loan repayment was required and that this payment would not restore my vehicle. 

Immediately after the payment ( while it was still pending ), I contacted the company to cancel or reverse the transaction so I could use those funds toward a different vehicle. The company refused, stating there was no option in the system to reverse pending payments, despite the fact that the transaction had not yet cleared. 

I was transferred to multiple departments, including Customer Relations, but was told there was still nothing they could do. I feel this is an unfair and misleading business practice, as I was not provided accurate information about the effect of the payment before it was processed. This left me without a vehicle and with my account funds depleted, directly impacting my ability to secure new transportation. 

I am requesting a full reversal of the payment and for the CFPB to review the companys refusal to implement a process for reversing same-day or pending payments in situations like this.
